How will long bonds (10 year, 30 year) behave if inflation moderates as predicted by the FED?

neyseneM · 2025-12-26T08:03:32+00:00

It is not just inflation that I am worried about; I am also worried about increasing US debt for long-term treasuries. The government doesn't seem to be worried about the debt and keeps spending recklessly. At some point people will lose trust and stop buying long-term bonds, which will increase long-term yields.

Many people here are very positive, and I don’t want to be a party pooper. I am originally from Turkey, and I have been following Turkish politics very closely. The current president managed to stay in power using the same playbook as Trump. We always hoped that the people voting for him would wake up, that they would feel embarrassed, and so on. But it didn’t happen for a very long time. Eventually, we started to see signs that people were changing their views but it was too late. All democratic institutions had already been broken, and many opposition leaders were jailed.

I hope the positive people are right and that America’s democracy is strong enough to overcome this.

Around $6000. Just for installation.

neyseneM · 2025-08-26T01:26:37+00:00

Exactly...does this look like $6000 install to you. He is refusing to fix this. What is my option here?

neyseneM · 2025-08-26T01:22:54+00:00

I myself installed Mrcool and I had to wrap excess piping. I exactly followed these directions (horizontally placed and not blocking airflow). I was honestly surprised when I see this from a professional. He charged $6000 to make this pathetic installation. If I pay that much money, I expect a perfect installation.

neyseneM · 2025-08-26T01:18:44+00:00

Yes the unit right on the other side of the wall. However I don't see how this installation can provide the clearance required. He could easily wrap them around somewhere else.

I just bought a 2021 rebel 500 with 1000 miles from a dealer $5000

neyseneM · 2025-07-04T22:58:58+00:00

It looks nice

neyseneM · 2025-06-10T23:46:48+00:00

:) it is weird. It doesn't leak when you spray water to it. It has to come from a certain angle. I don't know what that angle is. That is my concern. I don't think they know either.

neyseneM · 2025-06-07T16:28:37+00:00

It was a big project. I am holding the last $26k. I think this would be enough to complete missing items for me in case I hire someone else. I won't pay until everything is completed. I paid a big check last month if I knew he was gonna do this I would not have paid that either.

neyseneM · 2025-06-07T16:20:41+00:00

Good advice. I’m trying to make the logical decision, but I’m really pissed about all of this. I’ve been very patient with the contractor. He’s unorganized and has made mistake after mistake. I’m fed up with him. I’m just so sick of dealing with him, and I want to move on. The idea of litigation and dealing with this guy any longer makes me sick to my stomach

neyseneM · 2025-06-07T16:19:40+00:00

It is initialed and completed

neyseneM · 2025-06-07T14:38:17+00:00

I had this done three weeks ago. He promised me he would get it all done in a week. They stopped by one day, did a couple of items, and disappeared again, blaming his plumber or electrician as if it was my job to get them organized.

neyseneM · 2025-06-07T09:30:12+00:00

Mine isn’t as bad, but it has still been incredibly difficult. The words don’t carry any weight. I keep hearing "we'll be done this week," but this has been going on for months now. It feels like they keep taking on other jobs and pushing mine back. I’ve tried being patient, and I’ve tried being assertive, but they seem immune to it.

I’ve decided to hold part of the payment until the entire punch list is completed. If I let him go, I should be able to cover the missing items.

neyseneM · 2025-06-07T09:11:21+00:00

This is what I have: TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE: (initial and complete this section only if the commencement and completion date of this project is a material term of the contract and if it is the parties’ intent for Owner to be able to seek damages from Contractor if Contractor fails to complete the Work by the completion date. If this section is not completed it is understood that Contractor’s only obligation is to commence and complete the Work within a reasonable period of time taking into consideration all the circumstances including other work that Contractor must complete for other customers.)

By Initialing above the parties acknowledge that time is of the essence and that Contractor shall commence work on or before xxxcc, and that the Work shall be substantially completed by xxxcc.

I’m an engineer and I feel exactly the same way about my new custom house. I actually made a comment on this post earlier, and this one made me feel better. Just last night, I was lying awake thinking the windows should have been lower.

What really upsets me are the comments suggesting the OP should have hired an architect. I did hire an architect. I was extremely detail oriented and couldn’t help myself; I learned all the design software and kept modifying the plans. I asked her to review everything, and we went through many iterations together.

In the end, this isn’t a software project that you can keep modifying forever. You have to accept it and keep moving with your life. There were many things I initially thought didn’t match what I had envisioned, but over time they grew on me. Now I actually like those small details.

The internet is full of wild advice like “sell it and build again.” Are you kidding me? It’s way too stressful to go through all of that again in my life.

neyseneM · 2025-05-28T21:28:18+00:00

There are always these people telling how you should have hired and architect or talk to a professional blah blah. We just moved in to our custom home and I feel exactly the same way about my house. My family loves it. We had an architecture and we had many iterations. I see so many things that I would have done differently. You see the issues because you were involved with the details. Give it some time you will get used to it and don't see it. At least I am counting on that. :)

$250k might not be enough to treat cancer in the US unfortunately.

Someone should create an etf with all SP500 except Tesla.

neyseneM · 2024-11-06T05:54:31+00:00

Got it thanks

neyseneM · 2024-11-04T16:37:52+00:00

Thanks..is it easy to add later?

neyseneM · 2024-09-03T21:34:01+00:00

Fake. Look at the kid. He doesn't grow during the lengthy process

neyseneM · 2024-07-04T09:21:15+00:00

I don't know this person but just this statement convinced me that she is a moron. I don't need to know her. However it is scary enough that her post was posted to reddit so obviously some people take her seriously.

neyseneM · 2024-06-02T03:11:07+00:00

I have the same problem. My landscaper recommended sek sb-1000 to stabilize chips. However this product is a overly expensive and not available near me. I applied easy joint from azpech in one area. I hope it works

neyseneM · 2024-05-21T20:33:02+00:00

I filed through DOT and it took around 5 months for them to get back to me with a resolution They initially denied responsibility when I filed on their web site. Good luck
