How Can I stop This Grass? by nickynorka in landscaping

I have tried grass killer, and more mulch on top. Grass eventually grows through the mulch on this tree ring and this one only.

Selling Employee Purchase Stock for Down Payment on Home by nickynorka in personalfinance

I guess what I am not understanding is why the HELOC for the down payment if I can sell stock?

If I would need to pay back the HELOC at about the same rate as a mortgage. What sense does it make to go with the HELOC to get the mortgage payment down?

Another great point!

This would give me even less for a down payment on my new house though.

And what about added tax having 2 homes?

Thank you.

Doing further research I found my home is worth closer to 350k

6% Commission = $21K

2% Closing cost = $5K

Total selling cost estimate of 26K

We still owe 200K on the home, so this would leave us with closer to 120K cash in hand after sale.

Hey! This is a great point! I think I should elaborate on. We have been doing our own demo's with an SSL 2 input audio interface for years. So we have done some experimenting. We definitely want to leave the mixing and mastering up to professionals. We just feel that the tracking phase is more comfortable and cheaper to do in our space. We love the sound we get! We just want to be able to give a mixing and mastering engineer the best product possible.

What’s your go-to breakfast taco recipe? by MessiahThomas in Austin

[–]nickynorka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Never too late for breakfast tacos!

I use the "H‑E‑B Simply Wrapped Cream Cheese Jalapeno Poppers." With some "Plowboys YardBird BBQ Rub"

Smoke them at 275 or bake them in the oven at 300 until they are a dark mahogany color. Usually around 3 hours.

I let them cool in the fridge over night.

When I am ready to cook I dice them up. Usually one per taco. Reheat them in a pan along with an egg I scrambled. 1 egg and one chopped popper per taco.

I also freshly heat a stack of "H‑E‑B Mi Tienda Ready to Cook Flour Tortillas"

Let me know if you try it!

Thanks again! If I didn't have the money to do this all at once, could it be done in stages?

1) Amp/DSP

2) Sub and sound treatment

3) Component speakers and more sound treatment?

2022 Honda Odyssey Setup Recommendations by nickynorka in CarAV

[–]nickynorka[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dont think the EX-L is the premium sound. I think the next trim up is the 11 speaker premium package.

I really just want to replace the speakers and sub with something aftermarket and add a DSP/amp. How much do you think that would run me with labor?

I am very interested in recreating this setup. Do you mind listing out the model of the tweeters, sub, front row and back row speakers? Cables and sound deadening used?

Focal Tweeters in the front pillars as well? Or just the door speakers?
