ha ha well you know it can also be us guys? I mean you look at some of these older guys and man they knew how to dress and carry themselves! But then I guess the world was a different place when they were in charge. The guys wore suits to work and the ladies had torpedo tits.... And after reading an article on Playboy and looking at those boobies that grew into those torpedo shaped bra's.....boy it looked like good fun :-) Life through good thoughts, good words, and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay.

Ha ha...nah. He was in the middle of telling me about work he had done gas generators (taking boiling hydrogen gas and converting that into electrical energy). I was buying the drink so as to have time with him before he retired. Old legends like him.....there will never be engineers and scientists that had such class and such balls! Those old guys built the world we take for granted and they did it all with no more than their guts, their brains and a pencil and a piece of paper. Guy died two years after he retired.

James thank you but why throw good money after bad? $20K+ for a refi on a property I hate? And at a savings of $200 a month....how many years to make that $20k back? If i had kids and loved the place SURE! But I just want to be on with my life. I'll pay filing fees....but full up closing fees to reassure some "investor" well I'm sorry fuck you! but what choice do we have? Ever try and argue with an ATM over the $4 fee you just paid for your own money? Or the $1 cost added to your order when you used your card to buy food?

So....it is all I have left? Cool! Not that I want to do it but it's a very nice NUCLEAR option on the table. But for now, I would like to just pay $600 to remove someone's name off a piece of paper not $3k when I have proven that I was soly responsible for said debt and have proven this via various certified documents. Look here is how banking works, I entrust that you won't screw me and that I won't screw you. It's a nice agreement that worked for many years! But well...over the past 15 years or so one side has been getting screwed a bit more than the other. Perhaps we need a leveling of debt. But who am I kidding? I'll just suck it up and pay my pound of flesh...aka $3k to ensure that the CEO has a nice fat paycheck come end of the year. As a good friend who works for the world bank once told me over a $15 martini "The rich will get richer, the poor will die off and the middle class.....well there is always Mexico?"

I had no idea the banks just take that money and burn it in a bonfire (I these fees are crappy, too, but that statement just begs mockery) Bur it in abonfire...use it to pay over the top compinsation....what's the difference? But from the sounds of it, it appears that the banks have started eating themselves from the inside out. GS is laying off, BA is laying off, Chase is thinking.... Funny, the give me more and more attitude has started to come back home. I wonder how many of those guys and gals may start complaining about the fees they are paying on their accounts?

I also plan on speeding home as well. What more can they do to me? Really? I pay my bills, I hold up my end of my agreements. And what can the IRS do? Look the system is broken. Be it $4 a pop fee for taking out your own money to $3k in fees to remove a name off a piece of paper. How can I put it to you in terms you can understand....speaking with my uncle who works on property development in Iran and international investments stated to me the other day "The US banks were bailed out, they were in the eyes of all in the world empowered to the point where they now have all the power and all of the cards. Why would anyone do business in the US? The banks are not accommodating and it's their way or the high way...oh and they charge for every single sheet of paper they can...thanks but no thanks." So to sum it up, in the global market place, banks owned and operated by Iran's government are more accommodating than those in the US? And more reasonable? You know something is wrong.

I have and there isn't much if anything I can do. I'm 26% under on a property I care little about. And her and I are both on the loan...it's just a mess really. And it's not as if I'm doing this to save money or make money or am in any way changing things aka refinance. I have demonstrated via paperwork that I was the sole person responsible for covering the costs associated with the property. But what can you do right? Another pint of my blood sent off to the vampire. Funny, I really would not want to foreclose on the property, would rather just sit there and wait it out and break even in a few years or maybe sell it as a slight loss. But now there is bad blood. I reached out with good intentions and was rewarded with insults on my character. Maybe strategic default is the only real bullet the common man has in this war. After all who is on the side of the common man? The feds? Life through good thoughts, good words, and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay.

One day I was having a drink with one of the older engineers. This guy was a legend. Half the stuff he did is still classified to this day! And he was a true gentlemen to boot. So we were having a drink and talking about work and how things were back when he was around and well his phone rings...his wife.... "Yes darling" "yes" "yes I will" "yes I will remember" Then he looked over at me and said "Do you know why men die sooner than women?" Shah "Ahh no why?" "Because we just can't take it anymore. Well I'm off...." And there sat his half filled Manhattan on the bar. Life through good thoughts, good words, and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay.

No no... Keep going. You're awesome. And you know....a woman can say the same thing. But sadly in the long run....for better or for worse up to a given age...we guys do better in dating and mating.

me? Sorry I do. I like a dumb ass worked hard on developing my credit score. one credit card no out standing debts other than my home.

Now that there is a true can of worms isn't it? You are assuming the feds are impartial in all this. Look here is the long and short of it, I can afford my condo. My finances clearly state that. Hindsight being 20/20 I'm glad I didn't pay $60k / 20% when I bought the place. The money would have gone away with the wind. And any finance person worth their salt will tell you "money today is worth more than money tomorrow." as such the money was utilized to update and to pay off all other outstanding bills. That said, yes I don't mind paying a filing fee. Such is life and the cost of business. But $3k i mean really! That is just sick.

Sorry mate, would you rather I say that the girl who you were talking to and who was giving you shit was teh one and only girl for you and well if you fracked it up you would be screwed for the rest of your life? You know it works both ways? Neither dick nor pussy has all the power. It's all about equality and respect.

I love how the banks work, it's called the "Look asshole the feds bailed us out and put you the common folk out to die, so we all can do whatever the fuck we want to do and you can go fuck yourself." Hum.....brother in an open market, if there were every such a thing, yes one could simply pack up and go find another means of finance. However as they say "thick as thieves" Thanks but I'll rather be held up at knife point than to have to deal with any banking institution. At least the thief has the common decency to take what I have today..... Can you say the same thing about any financial institution? As for why I, with a credit score of 800 and who has just submitted my past 6 months of pay stubs and my past year of financial paper work to the bank has to pay $3kish.... " Investor wants to be assured remaining borrower can carry loan alone." They day I send the keys back I will attach a little note to them clearly indicating where said investor can place said keys.

Why? Divorce and well...the judge indicated I must. I thought that might be the case but haven't personally experienced any similar situation. I would have hoped that sending the bank a copy of the judgement might be enough, but they would still have arbitrary power to harm your x-wife's credit if you defaulted. And there's the hammer that the banks hold over most customers. Yeah you got it! Look $500 in paper work sure. I can understand that. We all have to make some cash and it is 5 sheets of paper so let's call it that, $100 per sheet. But I'm looking at about $3k. So that's what...$600 a sheet? Of which one of them is only my name, her name and the date of our divorce. Life through good thoughts, good words, and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay.

Online dating, the dive dive dive dive dive dive bar on the wrong side of the tracks sitting down wind of the local open sewage processing plant. Three groups of people visit this dive bar of last resort. 1) Those who work 10 hours a day, attend class and who's group of friends are either now married or married with kids or married and trying to have kids. And just want to go out once a week and have a nice drink and a dinner. 2) The delusional, AKA so what I'm 300lbs of chub any man or woman should look well past the two to three feet of blubber and love me who what and who I am....now where is that twinky! 3) Thos who have the social acumen of a twice boiled gym sock. AKA the guys who shoot girls emails asking if they want to suck their dick and if the girl is dumb enough to respond by saying no...the aforementioned Romeo replies with some witty comeback such as "Jerk" That aside my personal favorite has to be our delusional friends. And who is more delusional and out of touch with reality and their own dating capital than our good friends the engineering and science girls. A half decade or so of being in an environment where they are the only viable option has not only inflated their ego but has given them an odd distorted view of how hot they are. Most girls look in the mirror and due to social pressures think "Eh...maybe I'll skip the death by chocolate desert and go for the fruit this evening" while your average engineering and science girl looks in the mirror and does what best could be described as some sort of off tempo fully body convulsion which she likes to call "dancing" while thinking "Yeah I will have the death by chocolate and a pound of whip cream on top of that!" Long story short the other day I had a chance to watch said dance, I threw up a bit, poured sandy bleach into my eyes and closed the car door on my fingers a few times to dull the pain. But it all cleared up into laughter quickly thereafter. My good friend the scientist chick started complaining about the quality of dates she was having. She could not figure out why the guys she is dating now will not bend over backwards for her as her previous boyfriend the engineer did. And what's worse, why these scientist/ engineers she is now sort of seeing either are not fully into her or worse are dorky compared to the other guys. Ladies and gents, it was truly a case of the "Emperor's New Clothes". Now please don't get me wrong, she is a very smart girl and is rather attractive if she ever stops being so freaking full of herself. Yet I could not help but smile and think "Shah your name should be Prometheus.....without that having your liver eaten out thing" So this is your public service announcement, if you know anyone who works 10 hours a day and attends graduate classes every Saturday and is sadly in a state where all of his or her friends are either married, married with kids or married and trying to have kids...don't let them online date...they may bump into some really odd people! Introduce them to your hot friends! Do the right thing! And with epic posts such as this, you have to wonder why Cosmo has not hired me to write for them.

Just call them as I see them. May not make you happy nor agree but I just call them as I see them. Now can you formulate a functional response to this or are you lacking? I'm going to guess....lacking. Please note as the economy as back slid into another recession that banks have been not only doing well but they have been downright thriving. And if there is every an issue...well there is just another fee to install. It's funny the other day I actually caught my mortgage company charging me a fee on a fee. I thought that was funny thus I called them up to inquire about this double feeing. Boy they sure did their best to explain that one. Sadly their failed and the fees were dropped. Banks, are today's vampires. They don't kill you or the economy outright rather they slowly just drink the blood of all those around them.....until the system crashes. And then what?

Class work / work work and had a "friend" from Brazil visiting. I will do my best to post my best!

Oh who do I trust more? The common thief of the common banker. As a friend once put it so eloquently, given the opportunity I would much rather be robbed at gun point and have my watch, my shoes, my clothes and my wallet taken from me than spend 5 seconds with your common banking professional. After all the common thief just robs you of what you have today while the common banker will like a leech latch on to you and rob you a little every day till you die. Yeah can't agree more, banks make less? No kidding...why not charge me 0% interest on my CD but $4 to take money from my account? Better yet...and this one is too funny even for me. I have to remove my x wife's name off my mortgage. I paid for the thing from day one. Have the paper trail to indicate as such. YET in the banks epic wisdom have decided that it would be in their best interest to charge me an amazing $3k in closing costs. Now contract law indicates a form of compensation must be put forth when a contract is modified. But really...$3k. I wonder in the grand scheme of things, where in hells cavern do bankers and finance professionals reside? Now for those who play the reason game, I'm just one joe, so what. $3k is nothing when looking at our GDP and neither is $4 per transaction. But taken and expanded across the nation think of how much capital is being soaked up by these banks and not reentering the system creating jobs and moving the economy.

Because they know they can be. They have the power to say whether your are or aren't getting any. Oh brother please! The only reason pussy has power is that well....you allow it to have power. Here is a thought you should think about the next time you are hitting on a rather attractive girl who thinks her shit does not stink. Every second of every day some where some place another really hot girl is turning 21 and thus not only legal but an ethical move! On the other hand, on the other hand...well...the girl you just spoke with and who thinks her shit cures night blindness? Yeah she just got another second older, thus she developed another wrinkle and her tits and ass dropped another 1mm from where they should be. Thus, ladies play nice!
