Be honest: Who here has noticed lack of credit, hardship borrowing, etc?

Quote from fearless9:

Serious question...

Would you ever consider mowing your lawns, cleaning your cars and cleaning the pool, gardening etc.

... would you ever consider doing this yourself

i do my own yardwork, wash my own cars, take care of my house, because i'm not a lazy fatass like half the population. plus i hate gardeners, they always f*** up your sprinklers. and who wants strangers inside their house? as for washing my f430, no one touches it except me.

i never understood why people spend $100 per month on cleaning/yardwork and then another $40 on a gym membership. you can spend $0 and accomplish two goals at once.

Instead of asking a business associate to be a guest at the gym for a workout, invite him over to help trim the hedges. Win friends, influence people and free help too!

Blackjack007 I'm with you push mower and gym workout all-in-one!

I always pay myself first. Only debt I have is mortgage and stacks of equity.

Lending to consumer and business was never a problem. Rate might be a bit higher but not frozen. It is lending to Banks that are frozen.

I think we really need a solid 3rd party. I don't care who he is as long as he is running to balance the budget.

Pelosi, Henry and Bush practically have a orgy together in pushing this bailout bill.
 
My Wife and I want to buy a new house in the near future. We are going to keep our old place though as a rental. We were pre-aproved for a 10%-down loan in May or so. I let my pre-aproval expire without buying anything. I decided to renew it last week, and now the loan-broker says we would need 30% down and 6-months of reserves to be aproved for the same amount. Apparently lots of people have bought new homes, while stating that they were going to keep their old place on as a rental, and then just walked away from the old place, so now the standards have tightened up.
 
Quote from Pa(b)st Prime:

Even THAT is a perfect example! My maid(s)-two sisters working as a team-have asked for two raises in the past year and my lawn guy now charges me $35 for a job that takes him less than an hour. Granted he has costs-gasoline ect-but just the same he's doing pretty good on the deal. That's probably two cases of UNREPORTED income just out of this household.

i refuse to do manual labor... but i have the maid coming only once a month now - i cant find anything after she leaves anyway... at least if im doing it, i know the shit is somewhere logical and its only a matter of time before it turns up.

i hate yardwork, so we have a guy come about 16 hours per month. that will be the last "luxury" to go.
