Re: [FairfieldLife] The Rent is Too Damn HIGH ...no ITS JUST RIGHT NOT 2 HIGH ITS THE MARKET PRICE EXACTLY
WHAT!? Probably the last thing I need is to buy a house just so I could be close to a golden dome. I already sold my shack out in Hays County and rented a house down in San Antonio. I'll probably sell Dad's place on the lake when he is gone. I'm still in Texas for two reasons: no personal income tax and I like live music venues. I'm paying $400 a month for rent down here, and the rent is still too damn high!

You are complaining about 400 a month? Yep, you are suited for the boondocks.

Obviously Richard, the problem is you need to type in all upper case then everything will be fine. :-D On 12/06/2013 08:35 PM, William Leed wrote: BUILD A HOME RENT IT OR BUY OIL STOCKS, SAVE SOME $$ THEN BECOME AN OWNER! wITH PROFITS IF U CHOOSE TO MAKE THEM BE HAPPY IN THE DOME!

Today we went to the grocery store to get a few things and return about a hundred plastic bags. In the parking lot I turned left to find a parking slot and there was this yahoo in a big truck heading toward me, GOING THE WRONG WAY, driving a Ford F-350 with dual wheels on back. At first I said You **fukin **#@*^^!!!#@*%$#%@ SOB! Then, I realized the poor guy was not only real dumb and half blind and confused, but he was probably driving the only vehicle he owned and paying $600 a month in payments, just to go get a six-pack of beer and a carton of cigarettes at the store. Go figure. So then, in the Christmas spirit, I said: you **fukin **#@*^^!!!#@*%$#%@ poor bastard! and backed up, causing a traffic jam in front of the store. Then, on the way home at a stop light, a guy dressed in overalls with a styrofoam cup in his hand tried to hit us up for some spare change. So, still in the Christmas spirit, I rolled down the window and said real nice: We don't have any cash - we're living on credit cards. Sorry we can't donate anything - I know it looks like I'm rich because I'm driving a shiny new car, but this where all our money is going, just so we can get to the store to buy some beer and a few canned goods! LoL! When we got home, the Salvation Army called on the telephone to ask if we could donate anything and to leave it on the front porch FRIDAY THE 13th. You can't make this stuff up!

OTOH, the other day I ordered a new keyless remote for the '98 Subaru since the second of the original pair was beginning to fall apart. A few years back I looked online and found that the price for a remote was around $70. This time I found one online for my year and model for only $15 including shipping. It was easy to setup and works great.

We can do this by driving out to the dealership, waiting in line, and either leaving the car, or wait in the waiting room, and then pay $55. It usually takes more than an hour, if you get there real early during the week. The last time I had the oil changed at 10,000 miles, I took the car to Jiffy Lube - it took only about twenty minutes and I paid them $65. They talked me into getting synthetic oil - Royal Purple. They tried to sell me an air filter for $18 - but I declined. According to Click Clack, The Tappit Brothers, you can go over 6,000 miles between oil changes. I've always been fond of Texaco oil. I get almost all of my oil from either Spindletop or from the Permian Basin. Dad goes 5,000, because it's easy to remember the numbers. One guy, a car mechanic, once told me that oil never breaks down - all you have to do is change the oil filter and add a quart of oil. Go figure. So, this time I took the car to Pep Boys for the oil change: $19.95 for Pennzoil, with a discount coupon, and half an hour waiting. And, I bought my own filter for $12.95 and put it on myself. The rent is too damn high!

Richard, $400 rent?! That's it! You get no more sympathy from me!
