Buying forest land, implementing solar

[swbluto]

Anyway, the property is large enough so I decided the first home I'm going to build on it will be "The guest house" and that's what I'll live in while saving up. And, the roman villa will be built right next to it.

The design of the roman villa will be intended to be "open air", just like the romans did. Should keep temps more manageable, though the humiditry is definitely something the romans didn't have to contend with.

Actually.... I just don't know...

Because the RV got upto 110F during the summer which the fans barely made "manageable".

 

[swbluto]

I wouldn't mind finding a girl who didn't mind screwing the wall street banks over in whatever way manageable. But, truth of the matter, I have a feeling such a girl would be doing it in self interest rather than ideology based on their culpability, because hardly anyone understands exactly how they're culpable. As in, she'd be more likely to be the "screw everyone over" kind of person rather than the "righteous vigilante", which is probably PRECISELY the kind I SHOULD NOT want... (But... really... I fell in love with such a girl right... is that /really/ true???)

So I think frizzy brown hair and somewhat untamed eyes is what I'm looking for.

 

[swbluto]

I need to find a scene from casablanca that captures my romantic essence with the girls, lol.

Okay, just saw one scene... NO, that's NOT it.

Hmmm...

What would this "aggressive seduction" be called exactly?

I have a feeling something from a french romance flick would be more comparable.

Just that I don't know of any.

I actually did see this one "rape scene" that seemed somewhat comparable.

And it's exactly the kind of thing the HEB chick seemed to be really into.

Hotties fantasize about getting raped, I guess. I think another way to say it is, they fantasize about getting absolutely DOMINATED and their resistance being forcibly overturned.

If you think about that's the kind of thing every guy wants to do a hot chick, it's no surprise the guy who's NOT AFRAID of making it happen is exactly the kind that would arouse her. Entirely natural, in other words.

The average age of death for autism is 36? Wtf... sounds like nonsense. Let's look into it...

https://www.healthline.com/health-news/why-people-with-autism-die-at-younger-age

This place suggest 16 years earlier. So, age 60 versus age 76.

It also revealed that the leading causes of death in people with autism were heart disease, suicide, and epilepsy.

Oh, yes! Heart disease.

Let's see if I can help elucidate this. Feelings of loneliness causes high levels of cortisol. In my experience, this means being around SPECIFIC people who MAKE YOU FEEL LONELY. Not necessarily that you feel lonely merely being around other people.

This high level of cortisol not only aggressively increases the rate of arthersclerosis, it also constricts the vessels, making the likelihood of clot that much higher. Also, it apparently increases the risk of A-fib due to unknown reasons.

You wonder how I know this... because it's what I've observed. Being around specific people has caused me to have morning time heart attacks of sorts and feelings of loneliness, namely anxiety and inadequacy, is typically what preludes it. I've cut those people out and I've been that much healthier for it, no more anxiety and inadequacy and no more morning time issues.

And it's just like that girl on youtube said... it's a lot more hurtful when the opposite sex says it versus your own sex, and its because usually your own sex is promoting their own interest, whereas when the opposite sex says it, they actually really mean it. Of course... I think the REAL REASON is because how the opposite sex values us is far more significant than your own sex. If "sexual pairbonding" is the meaning of life, as I've personally experienced as well as that bangkok prostitution client, then same sex people are essentially meaningless because there's no potential for a pairbond with them.

The researchers reported suicide was one of the leading causes of early death among people with ASD.

Well, THAT'S GOOD. lol

The suicide rate is higher among girls with ASD and people with milder forms of the condition.

The experts said that’s because this group are more aware of their condition and possible difficulties assimilating.

Yeah, because they're distinctly aware of the cause and effect and the unalterable hopelessness in their condition. The world is against you in a way that they aren't against down syndrome kids, and it doesn't matter what the hell you try or do, that fact never changes.

People with ASD may experience a variety of medical problems, such as gastrointestinal disorders. However, one of the most common is heart disease.

As I said, doesn't surprise me.

“It’s almost like this perfect storm that follows them,” added Lintala. “They’re wired into a constant state of flight or fight.”

This is true, some flee hidden into the shadows, others commit mass murder. All the while, the constant cortisol associated with "flight or fight" is slowly but surely killing them. (Fear and aggression both elevate cortisol.)

In a way... killing others whom are killing you 'softly' seems reciprocative. Some person of disturbed persuasion might even call it "fair" or "just".

Really, though, in terms of heart disease risk...

The one you DO NOT WANT... is borderline personality disorder. The "No one loves me" disorder.

I get the sense from someone on IGN forums who had a "Love me" on their avatar with their post mentioning them needing a doctor to tell them to stay away from guys while they try to separate love and affection from sex...

Tells me those "No one loves me" girls are whores. And they be looking for love in all the wrong places...or more accurately... in all the wrong ways...

And ... such was the HEB chick? I don't want to say it's so... oh... but... oh... maybe.

But I really /DID/ love her though...

I get the sense the kroger 40-something girl with the elven pixie look was somewhere on the spectrum.

Seems like "elven" is a pretty common characteristic.

 

[swbluto]

That's interesting.

These guys on craigslist seem to have issues with getting replies to their W4M.

That's interesting because I had no problems. lol

What was I doing right? lol

Maybe it's the fact I wasn't saying things like "This is a longshot"...

i.e....

DESPERATION.

HOPELESSNESS.

 

[swbluto]

What... the cops are here... (3 p.m.)

what did I do wrong?

Looks like maybe a process server...

And the plan is now in action...

Front gate locked at all times.

Don't respond no matter the provocation.

Looks like I'll need to build this house fast, before it closes.

I actually don't since it takes time to update records, but will do so anyway.

I think I can assume the wall street banks have been following my lead on yahoo comments...

They might've been provoked.

So the girls love me because I'm a badboy huh...

Thank goodness I moved out of the RV when I did...

 

[Dauntless]

What... the cops are here...

what did I do wrong?

Looks like maybe a process server...

This would be a cease and desist order for building this house of yours without the right permits. I think the way it works is they'll tell you they want you to pay a fee for someone to make regular trips out there to be sure you're not up to your old tricks and building again. This is all consent of the victim, they have no way to force you.

And the plan is now in action...

Front gate locked at all times.

Don't respond no matter the provocation.

Looks like I'll need to build this house fast, before it closes.

I actually don't since it takes time to update records, but will do so anyway.

Yeah, you wouldn't want to leave the front gate unkicked down. Not responding will help with the insanity defense, as will showing them this thread. ". . . .Build this house fast, before it closes." Ummm, don't you have the key? I'd think you'd keep it closed. I really don't get the 'Really don't/update records' thing.

I think I can assume the wall street banks have been following my lead on yahoo comments...

They might've been provoked.

Ever see 'The Odd Couple?' "When you ASSUME, you make an ASS out of yoU and ME." Nobody on Wall Street knows or cares you exist.

These guys on craigslist seem to have issues with getting replies to their W4M.

That's interesting because I had no problems. lol

What was I doing right? lol

W4M? Where you're supposed to be a WOMAN looking for a man but guys like you masquerade? Did you have a pic like this?

 

[swbluto]

But there's no permits required in this county for building.

There are permits for septic but wouldn't think they'd be sending the sheriff out here with flashing lights to tell me...

If they are here for septic....

Maybe I shouldn't have moved out of the RV...

Jeez... today's been an oddly eventful day...

Every time I've went to walk in the front, seems like I get a new visitor reach time... happened twice so far...

The reason why Wall Street might care is because I've been boasting, and some of my comments have been getting deleted, telling me someone has been noticing.

In the past, my boasts would often provoke the parties I'm boasting against. In this case, the banks.

So, I suspect maybe I've provoked them.

I boasted about things along the lines...

-They are complete evil.
-I'm wealthy for someone my age
-I completely stopped paying them and now I'm rich.
-Play the credit card game to finance your business

So, you see... I might have been inadvertantly tempting them because wall street banks love nothing other than to strip you of your wealth, it's their whole premise. Whether they do that via the stock market, credit cards, loans, their shell companies, mortgages... etc... they love robbing ones wealth.

It is curious to wonder if I can be sued under Texas law. Not an "official resident" apparently.

And the front of the shack definitely needs a peep hole...

 

[Dauntless]

So did you talk to them, did they post something, is there any notice at all? What's this 'Not an official resident' business? Are you going to school there? What would you be sued for?

You must think America is impoverished to say you're "Wealthy" for your age.

If you're not using the banks, they don't know you're there. They are not after you for some nonsense you posted online.

 

[swbluto]

https://www.yahoo.com/finance/news/algorithmic-zoning-could-answer-cheaper-201813885.html

Zoning codes are a century old, and the lifeblood of all major U.S. cities (except arguably Houston),

SOOO TRUE!!!! lol.

I think it's actually wonderful, seeing the unusual juxtaposition of different "zones".

I.e., downtown one story college campuses on huge tracts of land surrounded by skyscrapers on all sides.

It's like a nice reprieve right in the middle of the vitreous forest that's the downtown area.

 

[swbluto]

You must think America is impoverished to say you're "Wealthy" for your age.

I think millenials are impoverished, yes!!

My networth is already $30,000, just $70,000 short of that exclusive 16% group for millennials, and apparently that number goes upto age 38.

When I start up these local businesses probably next year, my networth is going to grow even faster.

I just need to avoid contact with all suspected process servers for the next 3 years, and I should be golden.

Heck, I'm thinking I might end up doing paint jobs for peeps this year. Have some experience with that painting this shack, so I have the skills. And I definitely have marketing knowhow. And I have the ladder. And, there's definitely demand.

I figure my own businesses is going to be my only shot at income for next 6 years or so, and it's been good so far, so there's some good promise there.

And looks like I have my work cutout for me.

I hired CRS from out of state, and Charles w/ CRS was so friendly. He got the job done quickly, and in the most professional way possible. He kept me updated, was professional, and most of all, he got my guy! I would refer CRS to anyone needing a process server who won't take "no" for an answer. CRS has my business in Montgomery County, that's a fact!

Lol. Well, they haven't met someone bound and determined (And designed) to not let them win. Secret is to avoid talking to them at all costs. Doesn't matter what the /f/ they say. They might try to scare you, in case, do not let them manipulate you using fear to let them get what they want.

This does put the idea of a significant other a little ... unrealistic. At least a stay-at-home one.

Because, what's a girl going to do if the police have the strobing lights and they knock at the door?

They're probably going to answer it.

And that's exactly what you don't want.

Btw... to succeed in business...

It's pretty easy.

Find out an area that has good demand.

Do it.

Advertise better than the next guy.

Really that simple.

It's pretty easy to enter any market, as long as there's demand, regardless of the competition.

 

[swbluto]

And one of the local process servers is ran by a hottie, lol.

I wonder why she's so effective, lol...

Ok, so when the hottie is at my front door...

Just remember...

SIRRREEEENN!!!!

Luring one into financial shipwreck using their feminine wiles.

 

[Dauntless]

I think millenials are impoverished, yes!!

My networth is already $30,000, just $70,000 short of that exclusive 16% group for millennials, and apparently that number goes upto age . . . .

36. Turned 18 in the 21st century. Did you know the top 20% of millenials take home YOU (Your net worth) in 4 months or less? If they own a house in such markets as the greater LA area, greater NYC, Boston, on and on, they made a bigger down payment than your net worth. Im not making this up. Some have more retirement money put away. I could keep going with this. . . .

I just need to avoid contact with all suspected process servers for the next 3 years, and I should be golden.

Which includes not signing for any mail, from law enforcement that has the power of service. When I've had to have someone served, I've had the Shire Reeve mail them. Oh and, if that bedroom on wheels of yours gets pulled over out where its Deputies doing so, if you're sitting behind the wheel wondering why its taking so long. . . .

(That's good enough to put in a movie.)

3 years you say you can last, eh? Well, you've gone longer than that not gettin' any, at least.

CRS? You're going into point of sale peripherals? I suppose you could claim you're "Veteran owned and operated," there might actually be someone who would prefer a homeless section 8 handling their security software instead of some professional outfit. (Also good enough for a movie.) Of course I think you'll end up living in a van parked down by the river. (IS there a river nearby already?)

This does put the idea of a significant other a little ... unrealistic. At least a stay-at-home one.

Because, what's a girl going to do if the police have the strobing lights and they knock at the door?

They're probably going to answer it.

Screaming for help. Is she gonna be that process server? Most guys like that keep them locked in the basement for that very reason. (This is turning into a film in its own right.) Then there's the issue of a section 8 possessing a firearm less than 10 years after his dismissal. That might be national news when she opens the door.

Oh, on this high tech firmware/software/house painting business you're starting:

(Possible scenes for the movie.)

So once there was this overdone woman (Hairspray helmet, etc.) shooting her mouth off about how big time her company was. I don't even remember what penny annie subject came up when some guy came by to pass out his card to do something cheap, but the woman piped up about 'We do that, too.' I'm not making this up. Like the card that says 'Heart specialist/Uber driver.'Well, that one I'm making up.)

Or, for our grand finale:

So this guy calls me on my business line. My family would move themselves into my house and be demanding that they get that room with its own phone line and my equipment that they expect me to move. But I'd readily admit to people I wasn't long out of college and just the sort of guy the movie 'Tape Heads' was misrepresenting out of their sense of elitism. All the talk about what a big operator he was, etc. I figured he was exaggerating, they usually are. I as always told the truth about working out of my garage and didn't think much of people putting up a front.

Then he asked if I needed extras. Okay, big shot, you're really nobody if you're also an extra agency. But he meant HE was an extra. He sent me his EXTRA resume, with a picture. Extras don't need resumes. But I also got his name, details of some modeling agency he ran in Las Vegas, former cop. A lot of identifiers.

Weeks later I watch this reality crime show. Here's this guy in Las Vegas with some wannabe modeling agency. Former cop turned shady operator. About to flee those who are still law enforcement, he lures a woman into a trap before he runs. The name and background sounded familiar. And the picture of the guy. In the morning I drove to the little office address I had. No one there. Ever again, until they rerented it.

So about that time family was moving in AGAIN. The mother goes up the street and meets a couple that just moved in at the opposite end of the block. She claimed she was a partner in the so-called business with the sign still on the empty office space. Maybe he had her hanging around being an unpaid secretary, goofs like her do that. I asked about him and she said he had to go off suddenly and she hasn't heard from him. I'm thinking this is an opportunity to have her let the local police in, but you know what? Miss big time operator "Lost" her key and has to wait for him to come back. . . .

I cant make this up, it's too unbelievable. Lucky for her she really was lying. But now, in all seriousness, I'm not the only one that really cringes when some fly by night offers sensitive specialized services AND cheap unskilled labor together at the same time. Anyone offering to 'Shoot your home like I did mine a few weeks ago' IS unskilled labor. I don't think slogans such as 'The power of section 8 handling your customers secure data' will help, either. Oh, you could add janitorial.

And I remind in greater seriousness that it'll be bad for even the unskilled labor business when it makes the news about the dramatic gate crashing warrant service where the sheriff's came for that shotgun that background check accidently let the disgruntled booted seaman buy. You can surrender it quietly. The public might even give you credit for it if word gets out, not that they'll want you "Shooting" their house as you said. What a slogan; 'Section 8 shoots homes.' Maybe they'll mistake that for government rent assistance.

And before you start pissing and moaning about this, I remind in the greatest seriousness of all that it's all from YOUR posts, the train wreck that no one can turn away from the shock value of. I can't make this up.

Oh, Dan, I gotta admit this round really has me wondering if you're right about this being fiction. Even if I can't make this up, maybe someone else can.

 

[swbluto]

Well, that's actually a good theory. They were coming for the gun, lol.

I was reading they just updated the restricted firearms list about a week ago in response to the shooting which included all "dishonorably discharged"(What exactly that meant I wasn't sure), and I was curious if I could check that list to see if my name was on it. Sure enough, got the cops at my door this week. Seems kind of far-fetched, but it's plausible.

Oh, and take-home is meaningless without context of local living expenses. That will directly determine how quickly your networth is climbing, which is all that matters in the end. Most of the "High paying jobs" are in high-rent and high-property-priced cities, which makes up a great percentage of income. When those properties come crashing in value the coming crash...

And millennial goes upto age 20 at the turn of the millenium, because that'd be "The generation". A "score" is 20 years.

And talking about alternative process of service, Texas is a great state for this because THERE IS NONE.

Unlike Washington state, I knew I didn't have a hill of beans chance keeping my wealth intact there. Service of process by publication (The local newspaper). Then eventually they can get an arrest warrant for failure to appear at examination which really what they wanted from the beginning, to steal your wealth. Which, you're right, a cop would eventually notice as you're driving down the road.

Here? If they(process servers) never "catch me", I never get a warrant, so hakuna matata.

And that hottie knowing she won't get paid until service is performed... looks like I'm going to be one of her 8% of failures. Keep your friends close, but your enemies closer.

If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles.

And I don't have a mailing address, how's that going to be pulled off?

I think I'm going to want to build properties for resale or rent this coming winter. Do that in addition to all the other income streams I have.

It's great if I can establish all these independent income sources, because then I can stay "employed" regardless of what the economy is doing.

This guy at HD saying he had a home remodeling business until the Great Recession happened.

Hmmm...

Did his business come crashing down? What was the issue... overhead was too high?

My situation is great, because I literally have no overhead. There's really no risk of failure. And almost pure profit.

-----

IF THEY WERE coming for the gun, then it might be a bad idea to try to scare them off with it. So, maybe I shouldn't do that. There's areas of life where "Do whatever impulse comes to you" is a great idea (Girls), then others where it's a bad idea (Cops).

 

[swbluto]

Currently 34% of the workforce is made up of gig workers, and this number is expected to reach 43% by 2020

And I wonder what percentage of millennials comprise this job market. I bet it's high.

https://www.dallascounty.org/Assets/uploads/docs/courts/civil-district/134/134th-Rule-106.pdf

IT IS FURTHER, ORDERED, ADJUDGED, and DECREED that service of process
may be made upon the Defendant, Perry the Platypus, either: (1) by leaving a true copy of the
citation, with a copy of the Petition and this Order authorizing substituted service attached, with
anyone over sixteen (16) years of age at, 221B Baker Street, Dallas, Texas 75202; or (2) by
firmly affixing a true copy of the citation, with a copy of the Petition and this Order authorizing
substitute service attached, to the front door of Defendant’s last known usual place of abode or
business at the above address.

So literally "the front door". Oh ho ho ho, we'll see if they can do it.

And, there's the kicker. They can't do it because... the following provisions are required...

1. a copy of the citation, Petition, and this Order shall be mailed by BOTH
certified mail, return receipt requested, AND by regular mail to the Defendant
at the same address at which service is authorized above;
2. the return of service shall not be made until 30 days after mailing or until the
process server receives back the green card from the post office, whichever
date is earlier;
3. the return of service shall include a statement setting out the date of mailing
and the result of the mailing by certified mail, and the date of mailing and
result of same by regular mail (i.e., whether the envelope was returned by the
post office, the green card came back signed, etc.); and
4. a copy of any envelope or green card returned by the post office shall be
attached to the return of service

This lot has no associated mailing address...

There's benefits to primitivity in this first world, yes indeed.

In the worst case, if I get a bench warrant, they're going to need some luck identifying me on the road if they're doing warrant sweeps.

And just need to avoid speeding... and avoid strutting around in the presence of officers...

[youtube]VYdzjaw60s8[/youtube]

Feels so good being bad.

I'm willing to bet once I get the house built, they'll be done with the process servers. I still want to fence up the house, though.

 

[swbluto]

Hypothetically, there's some current weakness in the fact I'm buying a second property. The homestead exemption only protects one contiguous property. But, they need to actually get a judgment (Questionable if they can actually do that if they can't serve process) first, then actually need to drag my ass to the examination.

If I find I have a bench warrant, I'll probably file bankruptcy. Don't want to lose my precious that I've worked so hard for (And is so valuable.).

https://www.thebankruptcysite.org/resources/bankruptcy/exemptions/if-i-file-bankruptcy-will-i-lose-all-my-personal-property.htm

Well, shoot, that won't work either. Non-exempt property gets possessed and sold off.

Maybe I should sell the property...

I'll sell to my parents for $1.

Hell, I'll even forge their signature in the real estate sale contract so that it's legally there's now, lol. (Just kidding, I wouldn't do that.)

Many Chapter 7 filers don't own any nonexempt property.

Jeez, it's a pain being a part of the upper crust. The legal complications.

I know it sticks with me for 10 years, but when do I plan on applying for credit? It's not like I'm getting credit offers anyways. And, I can start a business regardless if I've filed or getting pursued. In either case, employability via employer is potentially affected, so that's non-modifiable at this point.

Now I'm feeling the compulsion to do as the illegals do, crawl thru the forest undetected to get to places. Because people are looking for me.

I'm safe being outside the perimeter after 5 p.m.

Got an email, someone was selling me to sell their property for $10,000. I got a comparably sized arguably better property for $4500, so there, lol.

It's a good thing I put in multiple methods of contact.

Lot of people prefer email, I've noticed, as opposed to calling or texting.

Now that the focus is on denial of service, that does alter the property design a little bit. I just haven't figured it out yet. And the design of the house...

I get the sense I was building that for the HEB chick, just like ... some kind of historical comparison... now that's not really realistic in light of current conditions, that does possibly affect the design plan. I just haven't yet figured out how exactly.

I'd probably get rid of the separate bedroom.

And, I think that's about it.

That's probably reduce it down to 400 sq. ft.

Which is the upper end of a studio apartment size (200-400 sq. ft.).

I could always add additions to the side to lengthen it, additional rooms, specifically.

Well look, a page dedicated precisely to my query.

Selling Nonexempt Property Before Filing for Bankruptcy

https://www.nolo.com/legal-encyclopedia/selling-nonexempt-property-before-filing-bankruptcy.html

Well, shoot, looks like they investigate intent and specifically look for "Badges of fraud".

This would've been so much easier if I had not just signed a contract and handed over the earnest money just a week ago. Batten down the hatches.

Well, maybe it could be justifiable under the explanation "I moved, so I sold my old one". No "badge of fraud" there.

Keeping money in the bank when filing bankruptcy

https://www.thebankruptcysite.org/resources/bankruptcy/exemptions/will-i-lose-my-checking-account-i-file-bankruptcy

Shoot, looks like you're not supposed to have money in the bank when filing bankruptcy. Unless Texas's wildcard amount is really high, let's look.

https://bankruptcy.uslegal.com/bankruptcy-chapter-7-texas-charging-order-wildcard-exemption/

However, the state wild card amounts vary. Texas provides the most generous state exemption scheme that allows up to $60,000 in wild card exemptions to Texas filers.

Sounds good to me.

Let’s not sugarcoat it: Bankruptcy takes a huge emotional toll on a person

https://www.daveramsey.com/blog/the-truth-about-bankruptcy

Pffft... yeah right. I guess it might be if you're struggling to avoid stigmatization and you tried everything in your power to prevent it, but someone like me... or donald trump... just trying to protect your wealth from the parasites in the world.... yeah right! I'd wear it like a badge of honor against the Semitic plutocrats.

I'm feeling tempted to post something like, in addition to the no trespassing sign.

Fick alle das juden, das juden muss sterben!

But, I figure I shouldn't put anything provocative out there that might actually be seen in court.

 

[swbluto]

Ways to advertise a property.

If you listed the property in craigslist, landwatch and the facebook market as well as putting a sign up, I have a feeling you'd have no problems finding buyers. There's plenty looking.

And so far the response rate to my mailing has been 4 out of 10. Not bad.

One week response rate was 3 out of 10.

One month was 4 out of 10.

So, how will you stay under the radar when you start building? You need a permit. Then you need to build a foundation, which requires a inspection. What no foundation? Your gonna dig a hole and put rocks in it, that will do it. Then you say YOU will build it. You still have no idea what a house is. You don't know what a ROOF looks like or how to finish one. What about the plumbing and electrical? They both require inspections. Oh, I do believe the permit requires a street address. So as they say, You can Run but cannot HIDE! We all still believe this is just a BS story, so don't worry.

I like how you hid your wealth back home. You couldn't afford a real vehicle to travel to Tx. You were so broke from week to week that you couldn't eat and now you are in the top 20%.

Keep typing, it's fun to read. It's really nice to know there is a do it all, that we can contact when we need him/her. I assume you do travel.

Hey Dauntless, how did you like the crash fest over the weekend?

[swbluto]

Well, part of the networth increase is due to property appreciation. Just about 100% across the board in this area. There's lots of people moving here because it's one of the most affordable places in Houston to get access to Houston, which is pushing prices up. I was just one of the first who made a move to Houston before the current onslaught did.

The other part is making a killing over Christmas.

And then once I get line electricity, my profits will go up $200/month. That's going to help.

So, yep, it's really a combination of those two things. Non-property-owners didn't benefit from this 100% increase in nearby land values like I did.

Permits aren't needed in this county for ANYTHING except a septic permit.

Now, when you build in "the city"... you're right, permits everywhere.

The new location has the benefit of "Being in the city", without actually "being in the city".

Got a plan, now. No more stress in the face of worrisome uncertainty like the last 24 hours.

And boy, was that right carotid pain becoming noticeable. Yowza. Not usually painful, but it was with that stress.

The other part is making a killing over Christmas.

And then once I get line electricity, my profits will go up $200/month. That's going to help.

So, yep, it's really a combination of those two things. Non-property-owners didn't benefit from this 100% increase in nearby land values like I did.

Permits aren't needed in this county for ANYTHING except a septic permit.

Now, when you build in "the city"... you're right, permits everywhere.

The new location has the benefit of "Being in the city", without actually "being in the city".

Got a plan, now. No more stress in the face of worrisome uncertainty like the last 24 hours.

And boy, was that right carotid pain becoming noticeable. Yowza. Not usually painful, but it was with that stress.

No permit for nothing? Wow, they want one for a shit hole but don't worry about the safety of the house. So you put the big hole in the ground and mount the toilet above it when you build :lol: :lol: So you are telling me they will hook up the power to anything. You will have a street address then.

my oldest daughter had multiple job offers in Houston 20 years ago. She went down and met the people. She said she would pass, the place was too hot and too close to the hurricanes. Not to mention the pay sucked. Highschol teachers don't make enough as it is and that place was even worse.

Good luck with the Villa.

Oh, yes, I kind of noticed that 'affect'. Lots of focus on penny pinching in many parts of Houston, suggesting that much. Luckily, my pay is based on my ambition and the national markets, not just Houston, so I have the appearance of being so much better off than the locals my age. It's nice being surrounded by all these impoverished southern beauties, easy pickings.

I suspect the abundant illegals suppress wages. "Hire an illegal for $10" seems to be common wisdom here.

 

[Dauntless]

I like how you hid your wealth back home. You couldn't afford a real vehicle to travel to Tx. You were so broke from week to week that you couldn't eat and now you are in the top 20%.

As he's said, the millennials are a 3rd world country within the U.S. So he went to the Banana Republic of Texas where he could live modestly as a rich man amongst the impoverished criminals who keep trying to kill him. He should change his name to O. Henry.

I was reading they just updated the restricted firearms list about a week ago in response to the shooting which included all "dishonorably discharged"(What exactly that meant I wasn't sure), and I was curious if I could check that list to see if my name was on it. Sure enough, got the cops at my door this week. Seems kind of far-fetched, but it's plausible.

First of all, any capable investigator would tell you their are no coincidences. You have to PROVE that the most likely explanation isn't true. Oh, you know Ockham's Razor? Do you remember saying they kicked you out because you took off for New Orleans? Desertion is a category for dishonorable discharge. Attempting to downgrade it to AWOL is no good, that's included. Disregarding orders, prompting others to, oh, you've talked of such things. Oh, the sexual innuendo with your roommate. You have an amazing list of charges against yourself you've put up in this thread. It will depend on states, many won't let any mental findings types own a gun for 10 years. I think a dishonorable discharge is for life but there are 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, Guam, everybody speaks for themselves. Oh, you CAN appeal it, when it rarely works it's because there's some really serious matters, maybe yours is lightweight enough you could succeed.

Oh, and take-home is meaningless without context of local living expenses.

And yet you'll start saying 'Net Worth' without a real context. The funny thing is you have claimed to have studied Economics, where they teach you that "Cash is NOT capital." Your entire net worth is almost all tied up in noncapital which is 4 months or less of the take home pay of these people who DO have capital investments.

And millennial goes upto age 20 at the turn of the millenium, because that'd be "The generation". A "score" is 20 years.

That has nothing to do with anyone being a millennial. Nothing makes it 'Go up.' You turn 18 before, you're not a millennial.

Currently 34% of the workforce is made up of gig workers, and this number is expected to reach 43% by 2020

And I wonder what percentage of millennials comprise this job market. I bet it's high.

I've been a gig worker pretty much my whole life. I was in high school getting my first job at a place that was going to close shortly when the lease was up, another collapsed a few weeks after I started, the last was temporary from the start. This after all things I did growing up to make money without having a job. Continued into college, where I became a photographer, party DJ, most of all a film/TV freelancer all before i graduated.

Gig worker. Is that good or bad? I was in my 20's and started to get things like a $275/day rate for 10 hours. I get 8 hour straight time and 2 at time and a half for the $25 an hour if I work all day or not. Then there's the times I bring my own equipment and the GIG pays more. My efforts were toward surviving until I got my "REAL job." Which actually never came. I own a house property that kicks the ass of yours, (How many times over is my appreciation so far? California.) two vehicles which each kick the ass of yours, investments which did more to make this possible than the employment did and THEY kick not just your investments' ass, they kick YOURS. Dude, I AM what you talk about wanting to be, yet you don't listen when I tell you what does and doesn't work, what turns out different than you believe it will. . . .

And talking about alternative process of service, Texas is a great state for this because THERE IS NONE.

What about WARRANT service. That's what the gun issue would be. The woman at the door may have been unrelated to the Sheriff's Deputies. Or she may have been an undercover deputy making contact if possible.

Here? If they(process servers) never "catch me", I never get a warrant, so hakuna matata.

Always so much fun when they are SO SURE. So what were the legal matters you were fleeing in Washington, Platypus Man? (Ah, Richard Jenny). Yes they can get you in Texas. They in fact can serve you while you're behind bars on the gun charge and hold the proceedings back in Washington while you're still there. You then default, in order to fight it you have to go back to Washington. No amount of excuse making gets you out of it. And you'd be amazed how good they are at collecting.

If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles.

And I don't have a mailing address, how's that going to be pulled off?

I think I'm going to want to build properties for resale or rent this coming winter. Do that in addition to all the other income streams I have.

You just said how. It's funny how someone wants to take advantage of all this system makes possible for him yet insists HE cannot be held responsible for anything to make the system work. Hmmmmmmm. And you say your pending bankruptcy won't stop you, Donald Trump? His was a different type of bankruptcy, reorganization of bills, a controlled schedule of paying over time, etc. I'm not sure he actually got out or paying anything, but I haven't read seriously about it. They unwind the 'Sold for $1' deals in bankruptcy court. They take almost everything, including a portion of future earnings, to pay as much as possible of your debt.

What you COULD do, if your mind is clear enough, is you could buy a clean shell, sell the house to the company at a profit on a R.E. loan and rent cheap so the company is doing business, with whatever debt they're gonna sue you for then paid off figure out if you can sell shares on Kickstarter or others in the shell which would be a REIT, do all your "Developing" as an employee of the REIT getting paid. . . .

Oh wait, I'm talking about a real world way to succeed, silly me, you're only interested in getting away with something that is anathema to a legitimate businessman type like me. . . .

$200/month. The rest of us will have to pick up bottles and cans 3 days a week to keep up.

Luckily, my pay is based on my ambition and the national markets, not just Houston, so I have the appearance of being so much better off than the locals my age.

Also the appearance of the guys at the soup kitchen who sleep in the alley, by your own admission. But you must be lucky, my pay has always been based on the people claiming to be good enough to be my competition vs. just how serious the customer is about getting this done right.

My situation is great, because I literally have no overhead. There's really no risk of failure. And almost pure profit.

That's how the homeless do it, by golly by gum. They don't need permits for their little shacks either. But you'll see what happens when you try to SELL any manse you build without one.

IF THEY WERE coming for the gun, then it might be a bad idea to try to scare them off with it. So, maybe I shouldn't do that.

Oh, maybe. A guy like you needs to give serious thought to that. The rest of us don't, but. . . . (You know, if more people were reading this thread, I'd probably have over 100 things I've posted in response to you in the 'Quotable Quotes.')

I'm coming up with a title. 'Section 8: The Movie.' Let's see, how about Jack Black?

There's areas of life where "Do whatever impulse comes to you" is a great idea (Girls), then others where it's a bad idea (Cops).

Oh, so you'll shoot the cute process server, but not the cop. Hmmmmmmmm.

Hey Dauntless, how did you like the crash fest over the weekend?

Disappointing, but Amirola getting it in the finals seconds to victory made me sick. I remember the 2009 4th of July race where Tony Stewart wrecked Kyle Busch and ultimately others the same way just because he didn't care how he won, I really don't like that crap.

Oh, and Dan? There are times I really HOPE this is not for real. Is everyone ready for all the attention we might get when he assassinates the Governor?

That is great Dauntless. Real? Maybe it has to be. I would like to know how he can afford a cellphone as a hotspot with no data limit for the ridiculous low $ he claims. Real? how did he really get a gun or did he/her?

No permits for anything. kinda sounds like he is living in a 3rd world. maybe he/she is.

You didn't like the ending? Me neither. This stage racing is killing a lot of cars. I know the fans are looking for that. I don't like it at all, bring back racing.

Looks like I can buy shotguns out of state.

The only possible problem might be a federal issue, but I would expect the FBI to pursue that, not some rinky dink sheriff who'd just "go away" after staying outside the gate for a few seconds.

See, I had "general discharge under honorable conditions".

But the separation code was "Misconduct, commission of a serious offense". I get the sense this was to primarily eliminate veteran benefits, because my "problems" were not really that serious. (I wouldn't call visiting a museum a "serious offense", neither would I call "smuggling aspirin".)

Now whether this was added to the "dishonarable list", I don't know... but I don't think so.

Court martial
BCD
Are distinctly separate from general discharge and "dishonorable conditions".
