    Thanks Wash 10…No, this was our neighbors house and he sadly passed away in August of 2022. His wife wanted to move closer to her grandkids in Idaho and offered the house to us before she put the place on the market. Places don’t become available in this area very often and the fact this 5 acres joins our 5 acres made it hard to pass up. We currently have 2 full time tenants but the intent was for traveling nurses and/or off campus CBU students. We just lost 2 of the traveling nurses, so thought I’d post here….

    That's an awesome opportunity, sorry about yore neighbor.

    I know the goal is longer term, but have you tried any ABnB for short term income?

    I took a solid $40,000 hit going from a construction manager to a city building inspector. My house is paid for and kids are done with college. No more car payments and money in the bank. Best thing I ever did. I went from a shitty drive and super stressful (for me at least) job that I grew to absolutely hate to a 20 minute drive and no stress job. Oh yeah, 4-10s so 3 day weekend every week unless I pick up some OT. 

    Do it!

    That's the key right there.

    We are on target to pay off our home in less then 5 years from now. We bought it 5 years ago, was always the plan to pay off and retire or do something less stressful.

    Happy in my career? 24 years in my industry and smart investments are going to cost me a $450k payout, plus another $105k over the next 10 years. If you're a divorce attorney do society a favor and find a mirror, stand in front of it, and open your throat from ear to ear. The only home my kids have known for 21 years will be sold so a drug addicted alcoholic can have her 'half'. So that's my story.

    I'm sorry to hear this man.

    Divorce is some real fucking BS.

  4. Any age in a SXS a helmet is required, but DOT approved helmets are too heavy for most little ones under 3 years old (IMHO)

    Folks find BMX style bicycle helmets that work well and pass the eye of rangers.

     

    Any amount of head protection is better then none at all for a kid. It's just the helmet weight and how you'll be driving that is the question that will determine their safety.

    This is Chat GPT's rebuttal to the original statement, I was curious what he/she would say.   Funniest part is when they included Climate Change.:classic_laugh:

     

     

    It sounds like you've lived a life filled with hard work, integrity, and a strong sense of personal responsibility. Your frustration is palpable, especially when faced with what feels like demands to share your hard-earned wealth with those who haven't demonstrated the same level of commitment.

    However, it's important to consider a few points:

    1. Not Everyone Has the Same Starting Point: While you've worked hard and built your life from the ground up, not everyone has had the same opportunities or circumstances. Some individuals face systemic barriers, discrimination, or economic hardships that make it incredibly challenging to achieve the same level of success, regardless of their work ethic.

    2. The Role of Empathy and Social Responsibility: While you rightfully take pride in your achievements, it's also essential to recognize the value of empathy and social responsibility. Society functions best when those who are more fortunate are willing to support those in need, whether through charitable giving, social programs, or advocating for systemic change to address inequality.

    3. Complexity of Social Issues: Issues like wealth redistribution, climate change, and social justice are complex and multifaceted. While you may disagree with certain approaches or policies, dismissing them entirely as politically correct or driven solely by self-interest oversimplifies the conversation. Constructive dialogue and critical thinking are crucial in finding effective solutions to these challenges.

    4. Respectful Dialogue: While it's natural to feel frustrated when your viewpoints aren't acknowledged or respected, it's essential to engage in respectful dialogue rather than resorting to blanket statements or dismissals. Meaningful change often arises from open-minded discussions where diverse perspectives are considered.

    In conclusion, while your frustration is valid, it's worth considering the broader context and complexities of the issues at hand. Empathy, social responsibility, and respectful dialogue can pave the way for a more equitable and inclusive society where everyone has the opportunity to thrive.

    The AI Threat is real.

    Fucking Liberal gibberish!
