    At least you found a house, I’ve been living with the in-laws since November 19th. I see why animals stuck in traps chew their leg off.

    Yeah, we are super fortunate to find this house. The land is worth more than the house.

    As someone who graduated nearly the top of the class in HS and then went to university and failed out after two years - go to community college for two years and then transfer in as a junior for the 2nd half of your college years.

    it took me 11 years to finish my bachelors :anonymous:

    my high school (technically k-12) is literally just a college prep school. My brother graduated from Pine Lake Preparatory in 2018 and he says high school is harder than North Carolina State University

    I would strongly encourage you not to sign up for significant student loan debt. We had $163,000 in debt when we got married. It sets you back man.

    because colleges are nothing more than paper mills. It’s so easy to get in and get out with that piece of paper saying you did it.

    I did online at ASU in 2015-2016 and it was a joke compared to 2005-2006. Much changed in 10 years

    We are in a unique situation so we got through it fairly quickly but I don’t recommend you set yourself up to start your adult life with a large amount of debt like that. Life is expensive enough as it is.

    02 Tacoma, fixed with curse words.
    We just bought our house with a 15yr old unit that may leak. We took the same approach, rather save through the winter than try to negotiate or get some cheap POS put in by the seller because of.....
    .....^^^^ this, we just sold our house with a 32yr old heat exchanger hooked up to a 10yr old AC/furnace and the buyer tried to negotiate 20k in credits for a full system replacement. Everything worked fine, no leaks so get fucked, can't replace something just because it's old.

    Now I just need to ensure I have 20k ready to go for an HVAC replacement before it gets hot and humid here, saving my pennies.

    @SearArtist house shit comes in 3s, what's next??
