Participant[quote=asianautica]It’s legal to claim whatever you want on the W-4. But if you pay a lot less than your fair share, you’ll have to pay a penalty comes April.[/quote]
Thanks for the tip. It wouldn’t surprise me if tons of people increase their allowances causing California to be in even worse shape over the course of the next year (revenue-wise) than they would have been. The old law of unintended consequences.

Participant[quote=asianautica]TheBreeze, I concur w/ the 5-10% drop assessment. I wouldn’t be surprise if this summer, you’ll see 5-10% drop compare to last summer too. Since you also saw rent being higher in the summer, Winter 2009 would be an even better time to find a rental. Wouldn’t that mean it’s still better to move now and move again next January, when rent would be cheaper than Summer 09?[/quote]
Yeah, that seems like a reasonable plan. If rent is cheaper this summer than now, it is likely to be cheaper still in the following winter. Plus, setting yourself up to renew every winter (especially if one plans to rent for several years) is likely to save money in the long run as opposed to having to renew during the summer.

Participant[quote=Trojan4Life]Breeze,
If everything OCR did to make his purchase was above board, why would he be worried that someone has information about his identity that could lead to him being sued?
There’s more to this than meets the eye, but the legions of BMIT readers aren’t willing to look further than their nose.[/quote]
I can think of all sorts of valid reasons for OCR not to broadcast his identity and his address on his very popular blog.
Have any of the Pigg posters broadcast their address? None that I can recall. Heck, even though I’m beloved by practically every one here, it’s likely that even I will decide to keep my ID and address private when/if I decide to buy.
