Of course, the goal is not negativity it is simply being able to articulate the contrast.

A midst asking him attempting to login to his credit karma account to articulate his situation he sends me a picture of his social security card without me asking because he had forgotten his password — Funny enough, I told him never to do that again, especially to someone he barely knows.

They aren't selling a house, they are selling their equitable interest (they may say that or kinda know it in their head, but they can't articulate that in any of their marketing or conversations).  

It's amazing at how articulate their lies are...

Sometimes, being put in a position where you need to articulate your goals to someone who isn't familiar with REI will help solidify your thought process.

It wasn't until after my MBA I learned how to properly articulate the information so it could be understood.So in my opinion, go be a learning machine and get your MBA if you plan on using the skills it gives you.

In our home jurisdiction the legislation is clear that arrears (rent and other amounts past due) must be paid in full to rescind a Notice to Vacate or and eviction order.In other places, were the legislation is less clear, we articulate in our lease how payments are applied and that all current and past due amounts must be paid in-full before we will consider rescinding a Notice to Vacate or halting the eviction process.We have yet to operate in a jurisdiction where the legislation states that a partial payment of arrears halts or quenches an eviction.

She could not have had a reasonable expectation that you would assume those items before Close.If the relationship is sufficiently valuable to allow for saving face, I might be willing to split the costs with the Vendor (though I would grumble about it for days).In the instances where we have asked for early access to a property, I've been very careful to articulate the conditions of that access.

CSPAN for forming opinions.Milton Friedman for articulated debate on government's effects on the economy.
