 | Refinancing a mortgage and the alternatives - Rush2112 on 10/4/12 at 10:19 am
Let’s say that you owe roughly $80k two years into a 15 year mortgage at 6% and currently banks are offering 15 year mortgages at 3%. If I understand refinancing correctly, you would pay somewhere between $1k-$2k to refinance, but your mortgage would start over with the 3% rate so you are better of...

| Your SO and their dishwasher placement strategy - Rush2112 on 8/21/12 at 9:54 am
Is anyone else baffled by the way your SO loads dishes in the dishwasher?
She's a smart girl but I cannot understand how she thinks completely blanketing a coffee mug with a turned over bowl will be affective, or laying a drinking glass damn near on its side. I usually have to put 3 or 4 dishes ...

| No talk of Virginia Tech in the mix for BCSCG? - Rush2112 on 11/11/11 at 10:55 am
I haven't heard anyone bring them up in the discussion, seems like they could be a sleeper. They knocked off a 2 loss Georgia Tech team last night, and could still get a decent win over a 3 loss Virgina. That would set up a rematch with Clemson in the ACC Champ game. They win that, we are looking...

| Car Loan / Credit Score Question - Rush2112 on 4/27/11 at 7:13 am
I'm about to buy a used car for $8k, I can pay for it in cash, but I really need to get some credit because I don't have any history other than a mortgage that I just started a couple months ago. So my question: let's say I put $4k down and take out a $4k six month loan, but pay the entire remainin...

| Great Documentary on North Korea - Rush2112 on 12/12/10 at 10:15 am
About 45 minutes long. A doctor who could treat catarax was allowed into the country for 10 days to perform 1000 surgeries. It really is amazing to see how these citizens view their dear leader.
