The Trump Presidency 2.0

[Cookie_]

I am personally benefiting from a 2.25% interest rate. However selling it and upgrading is now almost an unimaginable task.

This is the issue with my condo. Impossible to sell, so going to have to rent it out.

My first house in the 80s was at 15%, which was great at the time. Our current rate is 2.5%....freaking crazy.

And the income to home price ratio was around 3. Now it’s around 7. I’d rather have 15% interest rate with a $65k home than 6% at $800k with that factor in mind.

I am not doing math for this thread. The P320 thread has me tapped out on math.

Yeah we have a situation where we bought right as I started school in a house that was immensely affordable even on just my wife’s income. No kids, basically a nice starter home. Now with 2 kids it is tight space wise. But my mortgage payment is 1600/month. To upgrade to a bigger house in a neighborhood we like would be looking at 8500/month. In 2020-2021 those same mortgages would have been about half. We probably should have stretched then and been house poor.

Jumping straight into a 1.5M house is a bit of a choice though. There's plenty of things that would suit just right in the 800k range, yes more picky for neighborhoods but there's plenty of stops along the way before jumping into a retirement property.

850-900 is 7500 a month.

I guess I should say “was”.

Idk what it would be today. We ran the numbers 4 months ago.

Also. It isn’t “straight into”. Like I said we own a house now. Also houses that were 800, are now 1-2-1.3 despite higher rates.

I think we'll get pretty drawn out, but I bought 625k on a 6.25% and our payment is 4k. Should be heading towards and IRRL shortly since my wife's law school loans got forgiven.

This is so awesome.

Trump brings back the Presidential Fitness Test with WWE-style theatrics

Sorry if already posted.

Me? No I am not. I'm on the why are people writing thought pieces on LinkedIn about a jeans commercial with the most relevant and hottest actresses in the game is a call back to Eugenics...rather than, oh they put a hot girl in their ad to sell jeans, can't believe it took them so long.

So perhaps I'm outraged at the outrage? But y'all remember the 90s when Carl's Jr/Hardee's Super Bowl commercials only had hot girls in them?

This is definitely getting political...she likes to shoot.

I majored in Physical Education in college and taught it for awhile. In a lot of districts here, they no longer even require/ offer PE and if they do kids can just opt out. This is a step in the right direction.
