Bill GulleyBill, thanks for sharing your memories of John Q.

Federal spending is about 50% higher than revenue (from memory, I researched this a while back for another post, but I'm too lazy this morning to go dig up the exact numbers again.)

Yeap...I saw this article a few days back if memory serves.

I had the dashboard open while I made dinner, refreshed it when I got back without navigating anywhere else, and it made me re-login.Did you start clearing sessions more often to save on memory?

My dad was a mechanic, and some of my best memories as a child were just being with him, watching him work.  

There are statistics on average occupancy for Section 8 occupants depending on your county but based on my memory it is like 7 or 8 years at a time on average.- You can screen them and run background checks just like any other tenant. 

This just came up in my facebook "memories" for today:  https://www.facebook.com/codybook/videos/101518746...

Anyone old enough to be an investor has 2007 in living memory. 

They can ask for special dispensation from it from my mom (who is the executor) so they can put a down payment on a reasonable house, pay down student loans, etc, but that way they can't blow it on a new car every year.My dad's is set up where he is leaving gifts to certain people in his life, $1,000 for his barber, a former property manager, that sort of thing, so friends and acquaintances can have a nice memory of him.

You may be  surprise what they are willing to do if you ask that question and silently await an answer.This may always be a sour memory, but you can at least make the best of what you learn through it.
