^ I was going to call him out on it, but I think he only caught my post at the bottom of the last page and thought I was just saying I found some random chick that looks like Mila Kunis not that it's J's significant other.

LOL...well I'd be curious to see who he dates if he thinks Betty is "umm no".
Then again, I could just be blinded by love.

rather than saying "I would tap that"....he said "i would tap Mila instead, since Betty is taken"....? no?

Well, I was more talking about how Mila could buy me a Ferrari. Why would I be going after your wife to-be?

^ Blah...Ugh, to be perfectly honest, I had meant to come back to the thread right after...and totally forgot and didn't have the chance to.

It was meant as slapstick at the time to rib ya. And then, I would've said something right after I posted that (along the lines of what I just wrote above about a Ferrari/Pagani). Sorry, dude. I truly did not mean that...Why would I say something like that seriously about someone's loved one? Very out of character for me.

So, I apologize for messing up. Truly.

So, the take-away is: Don't start a joke and then forget you started it...and let it go down the not-what-I-meant path.



Hang on while I go talk to Ron A to have him berate me for breaking Article 3452.56 Section 9.10 in the AZ moderator handbook.

Yummy, all good, man! I won't even kick you.
I thought it out of character but trust me, I do that ish all the time...make a joke and totally forget to tell the person for days at a time. Ha ha...

Justin, well, I've been engaged for a long long time
Just need this short sale to go through with the bank and I'll be a green light to make it happen.

^ Thanks again, dude. In this case, you had every reason to be livid at me...Like I said, all-around retarded of me to post a joke and then forget to come back leaving you to think I meant it.

Again, I apologize. If we ever meet, you can introduce your soon-to-be bride and she can give me a "why-you!" slap across my face.

Jeremy....DO GO FOR A HOUSE ASAP brother....

the interest rates on mortgage are steadily going up


Its a wonderful feeling and since you are handy with your tools (), owning the house will keep you busy in a good way....

from when I was researching back in 2010 (when I started saving up), I saw a Penthouse in Bal Habour which was originally 1.3M for sale for 560K...I was soooo tempted, but the interest rates were still high and I was not really sure I wanted to move to FL....no state taxes were a big motivation though ....

Later that year when I met the right girl, we decided to shortlist between California, Kansas, Missouri, Denver(CO), DC, Virginia and ofcourse NY....did extensive research on job pays and house price and taxes and traffic and decided on KS....

I bet you guys have done your research as well....and I wish u guys luck on owning a home...

My car is only photogenic! Ask Austin...she ain't that clean in person!

Anil, no kidding man...we could have been neighbors!
Well, I've been a homeowner since I was 22 years old...so I feel you but after so much money wasted on interest and being in the situation I'm in, renting from someone would be a relief for now. Being able to move when I want etc...call someone when the roof leaks. I'll be happy for that...if we can buy now, great...but I also make more of the money and my financial standing right now makes me more of a liability than an asset so I might need to rebuild before we do that. I appreciate the enthusiasm and advice though!

I thought u said you were buying a short sale....did i read it wrong as usual?

damn am sorry dude....i guess I will bend over backwards like yummy....go easy on me, its my first time...

but on the brighter side, you have a solid head between your shoulders....i think knowing ones financial situation and reacting keeping that in mind is very important....a lot of people think they can afford something where they cant (eg: me back in 2010 LOL)....but it takes time to understand the risks and liabilities....

+1 on the renting and calling something when the roof is leaking....loved it when we were renting....we didnt have to worry about anything....with a house it sure is different....

either way....good luck mangg

Thank you brother...
don't worry, I'll be tired for round 2!


Well, you understood right, but I'd be sitting on the other side of the closing table once it gets approved. Goodbye moneypit townhouse that I bought with my ex. Ha ha...on to greener pastures!

I'm with you on renting for now... The Mrs & I are enjoying the beach life for now until we start popping out little ones.

Swoosh: If you thought that penthouse in Bal Harbour was a deal, check out the Miramar area in West Lauderdale. Anything in the suburbs out west really; bang for your buck homes! Once 1M+, now starting at 450k on; and I'm talking 3500sq.ft on.... It's insane out here. Definitely "still" a buyers market, that's for sure.

Apologies for thread jacking; now back to Rock's ride!

Jeremy...that makes the difference, doesnt it


Richkid...I worked with an older gentleman and he lived in a penthouse in Bal Harbour....his wife is a wonderful lady as well and the couple became close friends...when I down in FL to visit them (back in late 2009), he was showing me around and I loved the Bal harbour neighborhood....and since the market had just started crashing, it got me interested....

but wow...FL really did take a hit with the market going down....here in KS the house prices only fluctuated ~10%....no where close to 40-50%....

Peak of 62% in the tri-county (Dade, Broward, & Palm Beach) since 2006 to be exact.

Personally, my townhouse was at $360K...as low as $110K sold in last few years. Brutal...but yeah, Aventure, Hallandale, Dania...anything East of I95 near the beach, yes please.

My problem with that is...I want 2 car garage too

HOLY HELL....62% is just insane....

from a buyer point of view, its an awesome deal but it scares me that down the line if the investor has to sell, he might take a hit too....

Jeremy....move to KS dude....3 car garage is pretty common here (250-550K)....on the more expensive houses (700K+) its 4-5+ car garage....

I know we've moved on to a different topic, but I was just thinking that I've never seen Betty and Mila Kunis at the same place at the same time.......
