so nothing could ever change your mind?

it was a very noticeable drop-off in prediction quality around that time. This is not a political comment, it is simply my experience. Wunderground has been my go-to site for forecast, especially for rain movement on the radar map. I know people love to say weathermen are overpaid to predict wrong, but the site/models have been spot on for 3-4 years, often down to the minutes and specifically the coverage area. It does not work like that anymore.

People are going to stop owning vehicles, and a million FSD cars will be around for uber on steroids. Houses will start having more living space and less garage space

edit: not everybody and not every car. But I can see that for city folks that need to get aroudn town mostly, and maybe even long distance travel where you just jump into the next vehicle once the battery is depleted. People living out on big land, farm equipment etc will remain for a long time

I haven't gone to the movie theater in five years, but reserved first showing tickets for this movie

26 people caught buying a 4x4 to get groceries

I'd say so, he's def changed his tune

2015 about Tesla and SpaceX: "The US government has been helpful. Without subsidies, we would not have gotten here." to years later saying "I am literally saying get rid of all subsidies."

2016 about Trump "I feel a bit stronger that he is probably not the right guy. He doesn't seem to have the sort of character that reflects well on the United States."

2018: "I'm not a conservative. I'm registered independent and politically moderate."

2020: Criticized social media for not moderating content and misinformation effectively. Now it's all about absolute free speech on X.

When it comes to PMI, just consider it a cost that either fits into your budget or it doesn't. It's mentally nice to not have it, but don't let it be huge deterrent.

If you're avoiding buying a house because of PMI only, consider a scenario where you delay buying a house for another year to save up a little more so that when you're ready to buy you don't have to have PMI. In your example you wait a year to save $1,200 in PMI costs.

One year later you have more saved up and ready to buy but guess what, that same house might be on the market for $10k or $20k more.

I was preparing to be let down a bit after absolutely loving Emptiness Machine but they're 2 for 2 so far for me. Another banger that's already on repeat.

First time finding this thread and of course a ton of negativity for this. Classic...never change, TD.
