Craigslist is like a hobby, and like a giant garage sale.

I doubt the high-minded justify their 'necessary' backpacking trip around Thailand or their European jaunt to become more cultured. 

Yes housing and taxes are cheaper, but I don't think enough to make up for the giant cut in salary.

You can get flood insurance to cover the loss if a flood happens, but it's still going to be a giant pain to deal with. 

However their giant wildfires do not seem to be the same as the ones in AZ or CA.

No one wants to spend $750,000 on a home in a decent area to have a giant apartment building put up next door with hundreds of people who shouldn't be able to afford to live in that area.

It would be easier to convince a relative to let them move in temporarily if they know they'll have their deposit more quickly.We were forgiving of minor stuff and just counted our lucky stars if they at least mostly emptied it out and didn't leave a giant pile outside and it wasn't in unreasonable condition inside. 

European and in The Netherlands talking here.Had a meeting yesterday with a broker, I asked him if he foresees a crash in the housing prices due to corona virus (Europe is /was living a massive inflation in house prices) and he told me that selling houses to regular people (families, etc...) in fact stopped... mostly because visiting house is practically impossible during lock down (In The Netherlands it is normal to have open houses with 20+ people seeing the house at the same time and each one of them has only one opportunity o bid, so a hose of 200k goes easily to 250k).However, he also told me that the market of selling houses to investor didn't slow down a bit, its actually getting bigger and bigger, therefore he doesn't think the house prices will drop significantly (I don't know if he told me that just to convince me to use his services).

i'm so frustrated that we as a country, a people, the greatest country in the world just cannot get the SIMPLE, not rocket science FACT that the best, easiest, fastest, least difficult way to end the crisis sooner, faster, with less economic impact is #1 Testing - targeted sick with symptoms#2  Testing - screening (asymptomatic)#3  Testing  - antibody testing for immunity and prior exposureWe just spent $2.2 Trillion dollars on sending checks to giant corporations, and more corporations, then a pittance to small business, and small but significant amount to regular Americans.  

Before becoming shorthand for poor and colored areas, “ghetto” has it’s roots describing the neighborhoods to which Jewish Europeans were confined.
