Oh, and volunteers get free beer. Or, if by chance we actually have a cold winter, maybe coffee with Kahlua or hot chocolate with some irish creme or peppermint schnapps.

Of course, Bob Dole could have bought 3 new versions of everything for what he's spent in rent on the storage facility over the past decade. |

Have you considered buying a small house rather than renting? Apartments suck baows and all you have after paying for years is a handful of rent receipts.

If you can get some grants and an attractive mortgage rate, the sale of that small home you buy now can make for a dandy down payment on the home you want after you get hitched. |

House payment insurance, property taxes, all utilities, cable, internet, trash service, buying a lawn mower, buying tools, paying to have things fixed, renovation costs (decorating, paint, etc)... There's no way I'm gonna be able to afford anything worth having. I still have a year to pay on my car. A docto'rs bill I'm paying off, a loan I'm paying off..... I just don't think I could do all that on one income of (currently) 12.95/hour. |

I have heard the costs of buying only come out ahead if you're going to be in the place for over 5 years. Less than that and its actually still beneficial to rent what with the interest and other costs. Moooo |

Although, this time I'm gonna try to get an end apartment. That way, I don't have my bedroom adjoining anyone else's. |

Not everyone loves to move? Growing up as an "army brat" nutured my gypsy ways. My family called three continents home before I was 10. I guess the the wanderlust never ends. I love it all. Even the packing and unpacking.

Its all the same. Like I said, with interest rates, processing fees, and all that other stuff, a home doesn't earn equity until about 5 years in. If you know you're gonna be in the same place for that long, you should buy, but anything else and you should rent. Not to mention the uncertainty of buying a house. I mean, there are laws saying an apartment has to be suitable to live, but you can get termites and all sorts of stuff with a house, and without anywhere to turn. Moooo |
