I looked at Massachusetts Blue Cross/Blue Shield a couple years ago. Basic rates start for a single person for as little as $200/month. $225 I think had a much better coverage plan overall. My employer covers a lot, so we pay like $80ish a month overall...but I'm on the Massachusetts state...

It'll be one way but the other gets cut. The company I work for (hourly, not salary) announced we were getting a pay raise...which turned out to be just under 2%. No surprise there. However, they then turned around and eliminated all matching 401K contributions starting next week "until...

wonder what a property would go at a foreclosure auction for :D

both... $.50 on "assessed value." $.50 on the lowest, or relatively lowest comps in the area. Of course #2 is where you want to be...the lower the better! Others though are way too high with the mortgage that is on it...so better to wait and let the bank put it on the market. But...

as the article noted, his grandfather was one of the winners/up people during the GD. The winners just have that uncanny knack to spot the opportunities...in his case, it was like betting just about everything on black and winning out.

he actually came in under budget...what's the big deal...
