Realtor here. I you're planning to get a mortgage soon, do nothing!! Dont buy a car. Dont change jobs. Don't buy clothes online with 4 easy payments. Don't do big house decor spending. (Cards futz with your credit but cash drawn down suddenly effects average account balance.) Laser focus on the loan til you're CLOSED and take possession. Then relax and do what needs doing.

As someone who was involved in mortgages - I concur. I'd rather see a score drop cuz they paid off debt and saw DTI get better than someone who couldn't control their excitement until closing. After closing - dont care what ya do tbh.
My advice to the 1st caller (Dexter from PA), don't get involved with her yet. That's one pandora's box you do not want to open. She's a hot mess right now and will need a lot of time to get right, if she ever does. Sorry bro but, distance yourself from her.
Why is she barred from seeing her daughter. Not the usual court decision. Info missing. Makes this concerning

The first caller, Dexter is in for a nightmare. Financially paying the bills of a woman he isn't married to, a woman who in the United States of America has lost complete custody and visitation rights to a child (and owes her family money) which means she has had major problems, possible drugs (especially to have lost visitation completely) That story got worse by the second.

A storm shelter is an emergency! We’re in Iowa and have tornados here. Hubs and I have never been through one personally or his parents, but two years ago, his parents home got hit some and did lots of damage and the next door neighbor got the whole top part of house ripped off (was rebuilt)!! ALSO our two boys and us have had to use our storm shelter a lot, already like 8 times this year!! We have an awesome good sized concrete one underground that came up from southern Missouri. LASTLY, we just had some tornados hit recently and one was in Greenfield, and my sisters friends whole house was destroyed, her and her daughter had to hide in their partial basement under stuff but bc it tore apart the whole home, they got really hurt, was in hospital; concussions etc. cuts and blood everywhere 😳 pls keep you and your family safe!! Even if never hit bad, could any time! It’s life or death. Many have died recently in all the tornados!! 🌪️

There’s more that comes with tornados than just a potential “finger” on the ground. The storm around them can bring high high winds, large hail, and pretty heavy rain. If Dave lived in Oklahoma he’d have a different opinion on closing schools for big storms lol
What we are seeing with some of these students you speak of, is that the lack social skills. Many are raising themselves with the currently technology as their 'escape'.

Yes I agree with with fighting in court with the attrition of stalling and money to drag out the process. But in family and divorce court usually sways custody to the favor of mothers. For a mother to have absolutely no custody is where this story goes off the rails and facts are missing about why she does not have any custody. That’s not a money issue. That’s a lifestyle issue. It takes a lot for a mother to have absolutely zero custody.

It is exceptionally rare as you said for a man to get primary custody without the mother being a seriously terrible person.

I totally agree. Kids with divorced parents need their parent's undivided attention. Just as soon as they are no longer minors and launched .... that is the time to consider dating. Or .... get involved with divorced parents of minor children, and you will have a ringside seat for all of the post divorce circus chaos that is sure to be coming as the child or children mature. They will SHOW you how they feel about all that the original family has put them through.

While doing that, we still have to be making some effort on our part as to whatever we're praying about. For example, I'll pray for financial breakthroughs, but if i just sit on my sofa every day watching TV and I don't make any effort to seek a job or some kind of resource to help towards that I can't be mad at God and just expect him to bring it to me. When we move, God move!

Say what you want about Hyundai, they’ve got a lot of engine issues going on lately, but at least they put a really good warranty on them, but seriously Nissan? A 2021 has the transmission die and isn’t up for warranty work? I get that it might have higher mileage and be outside the standard warranty, but that’s a really bad look to deny warranty on a 2021. They should really step up and take care of this dude
