04:15 IsambardPrince; A zombie mortgage from 2006 woke up and went after Dave.

04:26 schestowitz; oh

04:34 IsambardPrince; schestowitz, He borrowed $12,638 in 2006.

04:34 IsambardPrince; They are going for about $70-80 grand now.

04:34 schestowitz; how does that work? for that

04:35 IsambardPrince; It sat there for 18 years, so far, piling up interest (plus the late fees).

04:35 schestowitz; amount?

04:35 schestowitz; yo pay 5 times more back?

04:35 IsambardPrince; He financed $12,638 in 2006 for a mortgage at a bit over 13%.

04:35 IsambardPrince; He never paid them.

04:35 schestowitz; "financed'

04:35 IsambardPrince; They charged late fees and interest and interest on the late fees.

04:35 schestowitz; borrowed

04:35 IsambardPrince; They took the house back, and resold it.

04:35 schestowitz; it'ss likee poeople who call debt "credit"

04:35 IsambardPrince; The lates stopped, but the interest didn't.

04:35 schestowitz; and they they have "credit"

04:35 schestowitz; when they mean theeeey are worse than broke

04:36 IsambardPrince; So they sat on it for 18 years.

04:36 IsambardPrince; I think that's how it happened anyway.

04:37 IsambardPrince; He was complaining that his girlfriend kept the house.

04:37 nobody; schestowitz: python devs rather discusses their issues with cross-compiling, tcc support, static-linking support

04:37 nobody; and how it's a pain into wherever to bootstrap python

04:37 nobody; *discussed

04:38 IsambardPrince; schestowitz, Don't borrow money unless there's no other choice.

04:38 IsambardPrince; If you have to, get the lowest rate you can.

04:38 IsambardPrince; 13.36% on a mortgage in 2006 was oddly high.

04:38 IsambardPrince; I had friends who were getting 2%-ish.

04:38 IsambardPrince; But Dave probably had shitty credit back then.

04:40 IsambardPrince; schestowitz, So $12,638 exploded into $40,000, but it'll get so much worse.

04:40 IsambardPrince; The interest is ticking until there's some resolution.

04:40 IsambardPrince; And he's dragging his feet with stall tactics that are unlikely to work for much longer. Then they'll go after him for collections costs.

04:40 schestowitz; better returns than buying farrmland

04:40 IsambardPrince; And set the interest on all that shit at 9%.

04:41 IsambardPrince; schestowitz, It gets better.

04:41 schestowitz; some people borrow for "a home"

04:41 schestowitz; that the bank owns... for decades

04:41 IsambardPrince; So I don't own anything, so walking away from people I owe money to works.

04:42 schestowitz; than the wife loses thee job

04:42 IsambardPrince; But it doesn't work for Dave.

04:42 schestowitz; based on her github profile

04:42 schestowitz; then the husband

04:42 schestowitz; and you end up living in some shack

04:42 IsambardPrince; He owns a house that appreciated to $126,000 of equity and he paid it off this year.

04:42 schestowitz; with seevere health problems

04:42 schestowitz; which might be related to the shack living

04:42 IsambardPrince; So if he files bankruptcy, the Trustee will deduct his debts from the house, throw him out, and hand him a check for the remainder.

04:42 schestowitz; using an electric blanket to keep from freezing

04:43 IsambardPrince; So he'll lose his house and get a check for maybe $20,000.

04:43 schestowitz; mortgages are for banks

04:43 schestowitz; not for you

04:43 IsambardPrince; Right, he's going to lose his house.

04:43 IsambardPrince; The one he owns right now.

04:43 IsambardPrince; Because of a zombie mortgage from a different house in 2006.

04:44 schestowitz; right

04:44 schestowitz; btw, did you see the SCO news?

04:44 IsambardPrince; No.

04:45 IsambardPrince; :D

04:45 IsambardPrince; Dave will be bankrupt with no house pretty soon.

04:46 IsambardPrince; Even if he gets a check for the remainder of the house, you can't buy a house with $20,000.

04:46 schestowitz; famiiliar story for some

04:46 IsambardPrince; And he's a fucking idiot so the $20,000 will be gone soon.

04:46 schestowitz; i see many people who lose a lot

04:46 schestowitz; andd then they move in with family

04:46 schestowitz; or scam family members

04:46 schestowitz; thankfully not in my family

04:46 schestowitz; but i see that in other family

04:46 schestowitz; they steal from relatives, too

04:47 schestowitz; anything they can get away with

04:47 IsambardPrince; schestowitz, Lots of bankruptcies.

04:47 schestowitz; in the US, number one cause of that is medical bills

04:47 IsambardPrince; The most popular way to pay all your biills in the US.

04:47 schestowitz; NHS still covers many ttttthings

04:47 IsambardPrince; Go tell a judge you can't pay your bills because there's nothing left.

04:47 schestowitz; and ER visit in the US can cost ten times more than a flight

04:47 schestowitz; depending where to

04:47 schestowitz; so people choose

04:48 schestowitz; die or pay up

04:48 schestowitz; as in,

04:48 schestowitz; either youuu lose your posessions

04:48 schestowitz; and some near us, even young people

04:48 schestowitz; deaths went up by a lot

04:48 schestowitz; based on ONS

04:51 IsambardPrince; schestowitz, It was the Chief Bankruptcy judge doing naturalization ceremonies this week.

05:02 IsambardPrince; Before this he just had a huge mortgage and a truck from 1993 that he kept having the engine rebuilt in.

05:02 schestowitz; sad story?>

05:02 IsambardPrince; Now that he owns the house they'll force him into bankruptcy and take the money from the trustee liquidating the house.

05:03 IsambardPrince; schestowitz, His other option is to work for Indiana minimum wage times 45.

05:03 IsambardPrince; So, he'd get to keep $326 a week.

05:04 IsambardPrince; At that rate he'd be working for four years for pretty much nothing.

05:04 IsambardPrince; So either way they get him.

05:05 IsambardPrince; That's one advantage of being in a blue state with a relatively high minimum wage. The *45 part means that most people are judgment proof.

05:05 IsambardPrince; So he could move one state over and they'd never get a single dollar out of him.

05:09 IsambardPrince; I can guarantee you that they waited until Dave owned his house to move on him on purpose.

05:09 IsambardPrince; The timing is just too coincidental to be a coincidence.

05:10 IsambardPrince; Home ownership is a bad idea.

05:10 IsambardPrince; You think it's going to be good, but it's bad.

05:11 IsambardPrince; There's the mortgage interest, there's the upkeep, there's the property tax, and if you own it, it's just one more thing that can be taken away.

05:13 IsambardPrince; schestowitz, Debt is sort of a shield against other debt.

05:14 IsambardPrince; If you owe a lot of debt on your house or car then it's not equity.

05:14 IsambardPrince; But once you pay it off, you have an asset that's a liability.

05:14 IsambardPrince; :D

05:15 IsambardPrince; I would never encourage someone who has a mortgage or auto loan under 5% to prepay.

05:15 IsambardPrince; There's no gain. Your savings account probably earns 5% if you have any savings, or you can find one that does.

05:15 IsambardPrince; Meanwhile, the remaining debt makes it less attractive.

22:03 IsambardPrince; The post office lost a check that someone sent me.

22:03 IsambardPrince; They manage to deliver all my junk mail.

22:03 IsambardPrince; Then they fuck up immigration documents and money people are sending me and Amazon packages.

22:08 IsambardPrince; I took the Buick down to the dealer. The mechanic had to go to the doctor at the last minute. So I'll be back next Friday.

22:08 IsambardPrince; This car is weird. I have a DTC code scanner now and it says the MIL is on when it is not on the dashboard, it says there's a stored code for P0128, and a pending P0128, but then under I/M Readiness, all the I/M monitors except EVAP are OK or N/A and EVAP is INC, but it says MIL is off.

22:08 IsambardPrince; I guess the most sensible thing is try to fix it if it's something stupid, otherwise fuck around clearing the code and trying to make it ready enough to pass another emissions test before the light returns in 2026.

22:08 IsambardPrince; Until then keep my money in short term CDs and pull it out and get ready to buy a new car if the fucking thing fails emissions.

22:25 IsambardPrince; I think I may be able to save enough to make a down payment.

22:25 IsambardPrince; I didn't want to take on a bank loan on a freaking car but it's hard to find one used that's not a complete piece of shit.
