How can I not afford the place? This is just to make my life easier I would not artificially make it harder on me if I can rent it to some europeans that will stay on a sabatical in my country.

What is my other choice? Leave the place abandoned for a year until I move? Prices get worse every year and I found a great opportunity to buy now instead of wait until I could buy it without a bank loan. Prices doubled because I waited so this time I don't want to wait. My mortgage is 25% of my salary that's not bad is it?

Thanks for the insult and making my point, I can afford it but in my country you have to make a downpayment of 20% of the value and that ate into my savings, I want to recover some of my savings before moving to another city and eating into those savings more, plus I have to wait a year for my wife's job, is it wrong to rent it for that year before I move?

I rent my property because it's the only way I could've bought it at my age and I use that money to pay for the mortgage of it while I live somewhere I don't want to (under parent's wing in a crappy city) but angry people rarely if ever consider all scenarios

So much questionable data and badly worded questions. Notice how the one that has the option for no response got the most entries, the question makes no sense then the author goes on about that data like theres no problem with it.

Also, the online dating chart stands out so much to me, 50k "swipes" and 290 matches in four years? Either he got detected as a bot and got shadowbanned, had the crappiest bio imaginable or is the ugliest mofo ever to get 0 dates.

(Spoken as someone who found and got married with someone in tinder before bumble was the main thing)

Also keep in mind things are less tinkerable now, especially cars and there are a ton of added anti self repair things added that weren't there before

I honestly have no clue on the studies but I can't drink anything with aspartame in it at all, even a single sip bloats me and screws up my bowel movements hard. It might just be an allergy but it took me 3 years to find the cause and I'm happy to avoid it that's for sure.

When asked in an interview how drone operators would know if the people being blown to smithereens were actually carrying drugs, he replied: “Same way a police officer would know … Same way somebody operating in Iraq would know. You know, these people in Iraq at the time, they all looked the same. You didn’t know who had a bomb strapped to them. So those guys have to make judgments.”

Holy F, as a mexican that crosses the border often for vacations... this is extreme and scary

You do know that's just an example.... right? In Mexico I've heard people use "stop eating fancy tacos" and avocado IS FROM Mexico lol this applies in multiple ways

"The restaurant told me to not care and use rotten food for your meal, not my fault" is basically what I can relate it to
