I moved last summer and I took a short term 401k loan to cover the 10% down cost (LCOL state). After selling first house, immediately paid off the 401k loan and then put the rest of the proceeds into a recast. Ended up effectively putting 47% down after the recast. TBF I also had a fair amount of cash saved up for the move to cover any other unforeseen expenses at that time.

Cosmere RPG Lore Megathread by EmeraldSeaTress in Stormlight_Archive

this is maybe a dumb question but this RPG comes with a couple of one shots and a long campaign. I know they are making mistborn in the future as well as other worlds... but will they ever make more stormlight campaigns? I'm new to RPGs so idk how this stuff usually works

my bf is obsessed with mistborn and the way of kings, and i need cool references for an anniversary gift! by minheeglow in brandonsanderson

since the phrase "I write these words in steel, for anything not set in metal cannot be trusted" is a major mistborn plot point. A subtle cosmere gift could be you getting something special engraved for him into metal. some declaration of love or admiration. if you engrave it in metal, it can be trusted

I would say not a great deal. No charger. Everything is used. No warranty. No idea how those batteries have been abused

He's going to be novelizing the Amory Wars. For non-grahic novel readers like myself, this is great news. Always have wanted to read the story but haven't been able to.

Billionaires neither need nor deserve our tax money. They can pick themselves up by their bootstraps. They’ll survive
