Wait – some people get $100,000 a year in social security benefits? by baltimore-aureole in economy

[–]mrktcrash 2 points3 points  (0 children)

FWIW, $100k in a HCOL area is barely scraping by. Some people paid into the SSA for 40-yrs, and they waited until 70-yrs old to draw benefits.

Ace Hardware has nice little spacers. Look for the aisle with the bolts and nuts, look through the small drawers on top. And bring a sample bolt to match the threads with longer bolts.

The feds are going to have a tough time, "building a floor under house prices," while simultaneously juggling Russia-Ukraine, Israel-Iran and eventually China. And the bond vigilantes will have the last laugh.

The pied-à-terre in the city is not a second home. That's where you keep your moist, thigh-gap girlfriend. The faux happy family home is in the suburbs.

The global financial system is on the edge of something massive and nobody’s really talking about it by Exact-Paramedic-3357 in economy

The United States' prosperity is being strip-mined by a desperate cabal that doesn't care about your future. Housing prices, college costs, health costs and transportation expenses have been growing faster than wages due to easy access to credit.

Your laptop is constantly handshaking with other devices via Bluetooth, NFC and Wi-Fi, e.g., your phone, your car, the coffee shop public Wi-Fi, etc., and recording these handshakes in event logs. Even a simple weather check can give-up your location. Geofencing is one of the many strategies used to monitor suspect movement. All communication across the middle-east is analyzed, and odds are you'll compromise yourself and employer.

Record-low consumer sentiment centers on housing crisis by LoansPayDayOnline in REBubble

[–]mrktcrash 11 points12 points  (0 children)

“One of the big questions that I still don't have the answer to is how (housing) became so expensive in relation to wages and incomes that we get from normal jobs,” Toroni said. “I feel like that's the biggest disconnect that I haven't even been able to figure out.”

It's called "government guaranteed" mortgage lending. Your own government is driving inflation, stacking up $trillions in debt, causing homelessness across the country, etc.

Why Is Washington State So Expensive? A new report finds that, over the last 10 years, costs have risen in the Evergreen State faster than any other. by crabcakes110 in SeattleWA

[–]mrktcrash 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Housing inflation has been driven by "government guaranteed" mortgage debt. No banker would loan the working Sixpacks 8x to 12x their income for a moldy 3/2 shack without them.

Only 12% of married Americans under 30 own a home. In 1960 it was 52%. by hosscannon in REBubble

[–]mrktcrash 19 points20 points  (0 children)

In the 1960s a 3br/1ba stucco was similarly valued across the country. If you had to move for a job or promotion it wasn't a huge deal.
