Hartford, Avon, Canton, Bloomfield, etc.) or by the shore in the New Haven area.Once I do get back to the states, I think I'll probably get a full-time meh-paying job in the nonprofit sector, perhaps working with an NGO or a community-based organization, and eventually get back to school for my Master's in international development, but I really have been looking for some sort of investment opportunity that I can get behind to complement (justify, really) a mediocre salary for a career path that will put me in the sort of jobs that will make me happy with life (but still leave me with bills).

So definitely check that out as it is an amazing additional resource.

I am excited to find this community to learn more from the amazing contributors to this site and make some connections as well! 

The best way to learn is through experience..you'll be amazed how much better you become just doing a few per week.

rob, livonia does not require them. in fact, i installed an amazing exterior door 2 years ago on a house and the manufacturer said that if i install a storm door, it would void the door's warranty. anyway, i am leaning towards not replacing it. it will not make the house "Secure" at all. it closes, but it can not shut all the way for the door to latch and lock. i wanted to go after the movers to get them to pay for the damage but they were defending the movers saying it was poorly installed.i will just send them a letter telling them i am not replacing it.
