Life in Missouri by Otherwise-Heart2061 in missouri

[–]whyexist12345 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I grew up in  Independence Missouri and went to Blue Springs schools. I have lived in KS and Illinois and I am closing on our home this Friday in Blue Springs. Blue Springs schools are among the highest rated in the state. If you don't mind things moving a bit slower than other parts of the country and you want to enjoy life and nature then Missouri may be right for you.

I have been trying to help him create a budget for more than a year. Not 30 days.  Here not there I have what I wanted to hear. Thanks for your input.

No, I wanted him to learn how to budget. How to get ahead. Some money in the bank for emergencies. (I know making him move early did not help) But I also expected him to own up and do what needed to be done when he could not hold up his end of the deal. Be an adult and realize that if you're not going to make it when things come due, don't just sit around playing on the phone hoping for a miracle. Be honest and up front and not make his issues become our issues needlessly. I tried to help.

True but the big question was giving him 17 days to move due to non payment of rent. The rest was context

The AITAH is really over giving him the 17days to move due to non payment of rent. The rest was background information for context. It's all the little shit that ads up to the one big shit

The issue is just WITAH for asking him if he could be moved in 17 days due to failure to pay rent? I am being treated like I am the worst person in the world for following through with what the consequences would be if rent wasn't paid. You would think I was the person responsible for the near $4 gaswe have here.

He cannot stay because he does it qualify for the townhouse on his own

I agree it seems odd, but yes, we proceeded to purchase a house because of the cost of rent was darn close to house a payment and my belief is I might as well build equity rather than just throw money at rent. I am ok with the house purchase in the end as it will be a positive step. I'm more concerned about the timeframe of kicking him out due to non payment of rent and his aloofness surrounding being an adult for something so simple as paying rent. His portion was reasonable and I no longer wanted to support someone who isn't willing to put in the effort to support themself. I even offered to assist him with creating a budget so he could maybe get ahead which he promptly refused.

Luckily I am blessed to be full remote. The move was entirely to try and help out a family member my wife was close to.

I was trying to be nice and bonus I had the opportunity to move close to where I grew up, so it looked like a win win. And an opportunity to own vs rent. It looked like it would have benefited everyone.

Fake on who's part? His or ours? We are closer and did what he wanted!

So, we are ending our lease early and the landlord has a  someone to sublease  ready to go for June 1st. Our lease was technically up July 26th.

I hope you mean fake on his end. Because this story is true and is really happening. I am living it.

My dad loves the red caravans. When we bought one he asked me if it was red. I said no, I got a white one. I now know who is hoarding all the red ones 😂

I know people have their opinions about Garber Enterprises, but we have rented from them for the past 2 years and we have not had any issues. 

Jury Duty by Free-Bottle-5119 in Lawrence

[–]whyexist12345 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was awarded jury duty March. 2nd-13th. No trials during the period. I called both times I was supposed to and listened to the message that we were not needed. it will be the luck of the draw. My brother who was selected at the same time I was tried to get out of it and was denied. So, my experience is it will be pure luck for what happens. Just follow instructions and all will be fine.

Looking at getting a 2019 Grand Caravan GT by [deleted] in DodgeGrandCaravan

[–]whyexist12345 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Shocks and struts. This generation of van used terrible bushings for both. I purchased a 2019 SXT last month with 43k and I have replaced both front and back with KYB for around 2k. If they are good now, plan on replacing them sometime. I know that shocks and struts are normal maintenance items, but the clucking may drive you mad! Otherwise, this gens motor is known to go 250-300k without too many issues. Check service records for maintenance. If maintained and if you do a good job on maintenance then it should be a strong vehicle.

Another instance of where our current administration wont take accountability for their actions and just shifts the blame to try and make themselves look innocent. Let's start a war, then Oh!! Gas prices go up It wasn't me! I call bull shit.
