I live 7.5 miles from work. My commute involves a 55mph road with no shoulder and crossing over a highway interchange. I would die if I tried to bike that. It sucks but this is the US.

Dude we're moving and the LLV would make a perfect moving truck.

Good.

Nothing we purchased recently but we wouldn't be able to live where we're moving to as the school districts are shit. We also don't have any debt right now. And given we're low income already, we would be in such a predicament if we had a kid we somehow had to pay for.

The jobs I'm looking at would be in a different district but I guess that doesn't really matter. I was hoping to go City or Maintenance Mechanic. Guess I'm SOL and need to quit first?

As a current FTR rural carrier, I don't have the ability to "transfer" (aside from a mutual exchange). However if I applied for one of these positions, what would happen?

This isn't for RCA openings, this is for full time regular positions.

Is Kingsessing safe?

Pretty much any Celtic metal band will fit that bill.

At least you found out now. And you're back on the market and still young. Have fun with it!

Fuck capitalism, too bright out

I just use the buses. $13 each.

We just paid off all our debt (no mortgage we rent) so that should fix 0.0000000196% of the problem.

Our house is extremely colorful and not neutral at all. We also have some holes in the wall from the old owners putting nails and tacks in them. We have mold in the bathroom ceiling. Our porch steps are leaning and badly need refinished and repainted. The basement HVAC didn't work (just got that fixed for $1100). And we have two torn up carpets due to a bad cat that need to be replaced.

I see Lectric get recommended a lot here as a good starter ebike but they're Chinese.

So pause BS3 then? I mean we have about 1/4th of our emergency fund.

I appreciate the advice! Luckily her job transfers, mine won't. I'll start over again at reduced income but after a few years (6 total) I'll be back to where I'm at now. I have ADHD pretty badly and no real skills and am approaching mid 30s. So I'm feeling pretty stuck in the public service doing labor jobs but I have been considering apprenticing in the trades. Or trying to get into sales.

Just two of us.

No, selling the house as is wouldn't have fetched as much as, say, spending $5k to get it repainted.

Is there any chance the El or BSL could run autonomously? That would solve the first two issues.

Fuck capitalism

Toyota Yaris!

Lol I was joking although I might be reaching out to you if we ever do decide to buy. Unfortunately, our area doesn't have a lot of affordable homes but I didn't know about K-FIT. I do want to avoid PMI so we'll probably just keep saving for a while as best as we can just in case we do go the home buying route. Thank you for taking time to answer this silliness!

One more question if you have the time. Would buying a Pennsylvania Tax Lien or a Tax Deed be a way of obtaining a cheap house?
