Been wanting to "downsize" for over a year.
Where I live in Florida (Jacksonville) there are "developments" of homes starting at 150K that are HUGE homes, and HUGE developments. BIG pricetags too.
Older and smaller homes are run down and will cost a fortune to fix.
There's a ton of foreclosed homes and short sales - but most are in developments.
I don't like the newer developments because they crowd huge homes on tiny bits of land, and if you stick your arm out the window, it's in your neighbors home.
Not only that but they all have pools and centralized clubhouses, children's lots and other amenities that you have to pay for whether you use them or not, and restrictions and covenants that prevent you from doing what you want to your home, car or other vehicle. Too much control!!
So, I've been trying to find an older home that isn't falling apart...and they are going like hotcakes. They don't stay on the market long - and prices are going up in that sector.
I may just give up, wait another year, and then dump my condo and buy an RV or rent something.
My condo dropped by 50% in value, and like everyone else, I'm upside down.
I can't sell it, and I can no longer afford to live in it.
It's a bitch.

I don't understand her. She says she can't afford to stay where she is and she can't sell it, but she's looking to buy an older house.
How does that work?

Too bad she banned everyone who used to give her money.

I'm not going anywhere, Mammy. I'm quite well off, thank you.
But since this was about your pal Goldi, I don't know how I became part of it except for your horrible reading skills.

These events will often times play out in perceptively slow motion because we’re living them minute-by-minute and day-by-day, but in hindsight, they will be clearly understood as the harbingers of the disaster that followed."

"Being in debt gives others power over one's life, and that power may be exerted in many different ways, none of which are likely to be pleasant for the debtor.

" Premise Four: Civilization is based on a clearly defined and widely accepted yet often unarticulated hierarchy. Violence done by those higher on the hierarchy to those lower is nearly always invisible, that is, unnoticed. When it is noticed, it is fully rationalized. Violence done by those lower on the hierarchy to those higher is unthinkable, and when it does occur is regarded with shock, horror, and the fetishization of the victims.

I would have compassion for her but Republican ideology says she should be tossed out into the street as soon as possible - without health care benefits - and become homeless less she becomes lazy and slothy at home....

And that is really the Only reason I see in a God.
That when the time for justice arrives, and the crowd is clamoring that s/he really didn't mean it and have mercy...
God states that s/he knew what she was doing, Yeah! She did it to herself.

Kind of funny how Republicans who are all about Jesus (or the Bible) accept social darwinism as an ideology.........
