Why not just Google it.

Cnet has really gone down the toilet, it's just an ad fest there I used to visit it daily for many years until about a few years ago, mainly due to too many ads and the overhyping Apple products. I stopped alltoghther when they went with autostart video ads.

Oh jeez let's not get into an android vs. iPhone debate...

I remember the Windows vs OS/2 debates.

Hawaii, wife and I do it every year.

I studied with a hp 48g, I still have the calculator but use the virtual version on my phone.

Probably should just rent first than figure out which area to move to.

Understand sometimes people just get lucky. The area where I grew up, home prices have give up about 100x in the past forty years. Some of my family members are very rich because of that. That's just being lucky. My wife and I work as a team and live under our means to some degree. We are pretty wel...

I have a surface book 2, very nice computer.

Call the number that you called to get the key and ask them how to proceed. The way that said in your original post that you wanted to use a lawyer to make the offer makes sense. You will likely hear that there is another buyer that is also bidding on the house, there is almost always another buyer...

I also got a prepaid American Express card I never applied for. I called AE, they closed the account.

squirm

Ok, thanks everyone. My next question is, do I contact the listing agent and say "we're interested"?
We were at the house last night, builder gave us the key, spent a couple hours there, were pretty much sold.

What do we do?

Hi, actually I tried online Friday night when I found out what was going on. Equifax, got all the way to the end then told me to call them on Monday. TransUnion, no problem. Experian, told me to call them on Monday. So I don't understand, I have to unfreeze my account to get a credit karma account b...

squirm

Thank you. Do I have to unfreeze my credit to do this? I froze my credit at the agencies over the phone yesterday while watching our kids play soccer, so it wasn't exactly easy. It was amazing the difference between the three. Equifax, big pain. Talked to the rep who had a very heavy accent, eventua...

Well, I just lost everything I wrote. Anyways, quickly, this is a local small one man builder. We have meant him face to face a few times because I wanted him to build on a raw lot I was going to buy, but we like the house he built. Our agent is useless and most of our shopping around was from Zillo...

squirm

Freezing credit was the smart thing to do. You want to go to annualcreditreport.com.com and pull your credit report reports. Check that you recognize all accounts. You might consider opening a credit karma account, but you will need to unfreeze your credit to do this. You also might freeze your Che...

Sorry doing this from phone. There's a house wife and I like, it's new construction. The builder let us go there and told us where the key was hidden. We like the place. We found it via open house. My question, we've sorta have been working with an agent off and on but in the other hand we haven't s...

Sorry doing this from phone. In the past few days I have received documents on the mail about credit accounts that have been tried to been open. Today I got over from PayPal, I called PayPal and they were able to successfully open an account. I had them f close it, fortunately no charges. I contacte...

Look at the plug in clarity. Personally I'd rather have a plug-in, I'd rather not be held hostage with EV only if there isn't a charger, if the charger is over iced or doesn't work.

I called 800-283-2210 and got a recording and then finally a person, but almost the first question was what is your SSN. I didn't proceed any further as if yet.

squirm

I did call that number, all I get is a recording that sounds extremely fake. I also googled Dells financial services phone, I tried calling multiple times just now (10:30 Central) no answer, not even a recording, for the size of Dell I'd expect a recording. Something is fishy. Is there really a Dell...

It says to please contact them at 866-228-9620 within 21 days to verify the information I submitted and complete the application process for credit. I never did anything related to any of this. What should I do? Also, wife and I just pre-qualified for another mortgage a few days ago we have yet to f...

Maybe invest in therapy sessions, otherwise I really don't understand the post.

One nice thing about a big house is hosting parties and out of town guests. But with that said I think the biggest house I would want is 2,500 - 3,000 sqft for a family of 4 or 5. You could put every one of your out-of-town guests up in the Four Seasons, W, Omni, take your pick, and never come clos...

We do. We're only get to see them grow once.

4am is too early, also I can't do cardio in the morning, I get too tired afterwards. Wife and I are up at 5 than get ready for work. I'm also up around 5 weekends, my tinnitus usually gets me out of bed. I make breakfast for my wife almost everyday. If I stay home I still get up with her make her br...

Sister and BIL is buying a house, her FIL wants to help with downpayment ($100K or so). What is the best way? She said she will have her FIL on the title so he can just make contribution to the downpayment, then sometime afterwards he can be removed, makes sense to me. If it doesn't go to the downpa...

We stayed there a few times years and years ago. Last time we could clearly hear the couple in the next room going at it. We haven't stayed there since.

Personally, I'd rather have a Volt if I was given the two options. I like Telsa's but in reality I know there would be many times I would need a charge and would have to go out of my way to get one, on top of that have to wait 30 minutes. I know the counter argument is it's a bathroom break, but we'...

I'd rather have the Honda Clarity plug in.

With the Volt there is no range anxiety.
However, isn't Barra killing the Volt?

Personally, I like Hotmail.

Op, glad you came out ok.
I should be dead, I had a very very close call many many years ago. Too long to describe but I do thank my lucky stars.

We had someone try this third and fourth (and even a fifth) showing business. I get looking at a house two times, and I can even buy into the third showing if you come ready to leave an offer on the kitchen table. But never again will we allow more than 3 showings. Our experience: we indulged a fou...

Yup, buying a home is always about compromise. The used homes we looked at, some are pretty appalling. Our first priority is location. Honestly, my wife and I don't like being around people when were home, frankly we don't want to see or hear them...We deal with people enough at work, that's why we ...

Personally I'd to a HELOC...refi into another 30 year loan? How many years to pay off the loans in totality? My parents kept refi'ing when it was in vogue as rates were falling. Their original mortgage was in 1970, mom is still paying a mortgage (Although good for her the home is worth millions). Do...

Wife and I are shopping around for another house. I'm thinking we're probably buying at the top, but who knows. Anyway, we're not even sure if we want to move or not, wife says it's up to me, she'll support my decision whichever way I decide. Anyways, we have an agent, but as usual, they seem useles...

Just build your own, I've done that at both houses we own. Overbuilt, so it will last longer than me.

You can share them with a OneDrive account.

having a good tenant is good, i wouldn't say priceless. You might be pushing your luck, honestly 2.5% is hardly an increase. I just raised my tenants rent by 5%. Is your rent under the market rate? if so, you should perhaps let him raise it, or offer a compromise. oh, just wanted to add, my tenant g...

Yes tip.

We have a well and septic. That's my preference too. I like very long hot showers, zero water cost.

I disagree with the others that you get use to it. No you don't. Wife and I never did. We have a house in the city, it's noisy with cars, sirens, alarms, neighbors, etc. We live in the country now, a lot less noise. We never got use to the noise in the city, in fact we hated it more and more. The no...

I rented a house far away from college in a upscale area, didn't want to be around partiers, focused on studying with lots of math. Girlfriend moved in with me, she went to same college and focused on classes with business. We both graduated, got married and are doing very well. College isn't playti...

I only skipped classes if I the professor was terrible and I would get more out of studying for that time than going to class. I'm not sure what others mean by saying they learn more outside of class. I basically went to college, than went to the library to study the rest of the day. Not much social...

He says they're in a comfortable position, to me that sounds like they're not strapped for cash. I say go for it, keep an eye on expenses and have a great time and make memories, before you know it, you're old and wish you did these things. Just be realistic with the money. My wife and I have an acc...

How do you usually save for your vacations? We just pull it out of savings and then put the money back in during paydays, how else would it be done? What's the difference between saving up for it now, wouldn't that money just go into savings? I agree, memories mean more to me than making sure I've g...

You need to go to the mattress stores and lie on the mattresses, that's what I do. I noticed most people just sit on it which isn't the best way imo.
