Negative labor #s was the household survey coming up w/ its 5th negative month in the last 7.

Whenever I get upset (normally it's about finances in my household), I make myself breakdown what I'm really upset about and then get mad at whatever made me feel defeated.

If we're using that article for reference (the one that breaks down individual household items, their life expectancy, and their cost) then he does not set aside nearly enough in order to cover these items in the long term.As far as other investors in Springfield, no, I don't think that they're unwise because they have a different, less-passive business model than myself.

Our local Natural Gas Utility offers this:"Reduced-cost weatherizationAdditionally, Energy Trust of Oregon now offers Savings Within Reach to NW Natural customers with household incomes up to 120 percent of the state median income (SMI).

I believe this 100% because the same thing happened in another town in my county and now that towns current median household income is at about 100k a year.Okay so finally the questions I have.Do you guys believe that it would be smart to invest in cheap properties (<50000) now while they’re still cheap and hope that they are able to turn the town around?

My primary residential insurance policy will not cover it because our rentals are out of state, all the major carriers will not provide it either unless we move all of our primary household and auto insurance to them and a couple of companies are only willing if we purchase building coverage through them then they will add on the umbrella.
