I’m with you guys on the molten salt idea. At the very least we should build the prototype to find out if there really is a materials issue. Too many upsides.

Thanks all.

I’m sharing the garage 50/50. Before buying I looked up properties with attachments. Mine has what is called an “accessory dwelling unit”. I have a printout of the description. Whatever that is it allows me to have a complete unit, kitchen and all.

If we are going to see high inflation in the future then buying would be a good move depending on how long you will live there.

I talked to my friend that got out of court. Turns out that the room addition he was living in is not permitted. So I need to verify the permits. The other bit of advice from my realtor is to put all utilities in my name.
The other thing is not to rent to legal students should I go that route.
One poster said its not preferable to live close to tenants. I dont think its all bad in that I could keep an eye on them and would not have to travel for maintanence.

Loan is FHA. So owner occupied..of course.
What if I move in (back “unit”) and have the current tenants sign room rental agreements? Assuming they will go for it. It is a family. I put utilities and cable/internet in my name. Would it fly in court?
Property is sfr and zoned as such.

I suppose I could rent rooms to college kids but prefer the family staying. Much simpler but, oh my, a serious cover my ass situation.

I watched part of Schiff debating the OWS people and turned it off. All he had to say was “Look guys. I warned you all ahead of time. I’m built my business on honesty. I’m the example of what good business is and what it should be across the board”.

But those people are so thick that they will probably know the Bakers, Toscanos, Roubinis of the world.

Angry chickens running in circles pecking at random things.

That would require some connecting of the dots. Way too complicated and time consuming. Chickens don’t think that deep.[/quote]

Maybe some of the chickens might ask why the farmer is controlled by the fox? What is the motivation for the farmer lifting the fence? Let’s connect some dots.

Here is some video of the farmer abusing the chickens again.

Correct me if I’m wrong here…hasn’t the Tea Party’s focus been more on government? I’m not saying that I agree or disagree with the Tea Party philosophically.If they are indeed focusing more on the farmer than the fox than that would make them smarter than the Occupy folks.[/quote]

The financial system is where the power resides. It should be apparent to all that capital dictates to governments. In Modern “liberal” governments, the rich are pitted against the poor, gaining their wealth by appropriating the work of others; and the government is in “business” to protect the ruling class or what James Madison called the “leveling impulses” of the propertyless multitude. What you are seeing is the naturally arising leveling impulses that grow out of system built on such contradictions.

The capitalist class runs the government and their power resides in the financial system – which demands and dictates abhorrent and anti-social behavior.

Regulating this abomination of system is a complete waste of time – only complete dissolution will do.

I agree that they should not be solely focusing on the financial system but our whole socioeconomic paradigm and its ontological underpinnings.[/quote]

If the masses continue to fail to take advantage of this massive opportunity to educate themselves then they will never know with what to replace this current abomination. They will simply be duped again.
Every liberal knows who Michael Moore is but none seem to know who Dean Baker is. Every conservative knows who Rush and Hannity are but how many know of Peter Schiff?
And you can find these people on the net…even YouTube of all places simply by asking “Whom in the economic world saw this coming?”
Simply doing this would be a change of the paradigm. Of course the sheeple will never do this….sigh.

A while ago = 2 years ago.

Nothing doubled, but credibility of lawmakers and fed is one half of what it was 2 years ago.[/quote]
Nicely put

Do you mean there are too many scenarios and or too many variables?
One of the scenarios is the high/hyper inflation….[/quote]

[quote=briansd1]Treehugger, I understand your frustration.

I think our society coddles the majority. When the majority of people are fat-asses we all pay for their irresponsible behavior. Same thing goes in the real estate businesses.

I believe social attitude must change. As a society, we look down upon those are not educationally or financially responsible. There should be similar stigma against unhealthy behavior.[/quote]
I often disagree with you. Not today. I too do not want to pay for the consequences of other people’s irresponsible behavior.

[quote=sd_matt]So how much inflation would we have to see for a house (to be rented later down the line) to be a sensible purchase right now?[/quote]

Is this question a sensible one or does no one know the answer? I’ve asked it before…

So how much inflation would we have to see for a house (to be rented later down the line) to be a sensible purchase right now?
