& Update on Moving Across the Land (Part 1)
You may think living with the folks is just for the young, not so! El Carino, Zoey, and Simon took my folks up on their kind offer to live with them “rent free” after our home sold. There were surprising benefits over the cash saved!
Quick recap for those just joining in.
El Carino got a new job at the other end of the country.
Last April we courageously put in an offer on a well priced, short sale (In a short sale, the buyer pays less for the property than the seller actually owes. It happens in a falling home price environment when the seller has difficulty paying the mortgage) condo in a beautiful development. We’d heard about the horrors of buying a short sale, but thought we had plenty of time to work out the kinks.
Fortunately, we sold our existing home, but we were left with nowhere to live. What was initially expected to be a couple of days has turned into a month with the ‘rents. (Update… 6 WEEKS WITH THE ‘RENTS)
From April until June, we were waiting to hear whether our offer on the property was accepted. After 2+ months, our offer was accepted.
Next hurdle, get our financing lined up on the condo. It didn’t seem to matter that our credit was great, or that we have successfully paid off several other mortgages. After sending reams of documents to the mortgage company over the ensuing weeks, we thought we were nearing the end of the loan approval process.
During the final week in July, we were informed that our loan was approved and the settlement papers would arrive any day. Five days later and no documents was no surprise.
While writing this article I received another call from the mortgage broker. Oops, they need one more piece of information. So our loan is approved, but we can’t close until we get this next piece of information is clarified. Mind you, it’s 7:14 PM on Friday evening. Not likely we’ll be able to do much else on this matter until Monday.
A week later, our loan is really approved. Another three days and the remote title company notary visits the ‘rents home for us to sign the settlement documents.
Next, I’m off to the bank to wire the funds for the down payment!
In a few days weeks we will begin our journey to our new home with stops at Mount Rushmore and Brice Canyon. Our four month process of moving across the land is drawing to a close… stay tuned for the final episodes!
How We Saved the Cash; Would This Work For You?
Had the folks not offered their home, we would have been in temporary quarters for about $100.00 per night! A few days wouldn’t have been
too bad, but our temporary stay ran into an entire month 6 weeks or a total savings of more than $3,000.00 in hotel bills.
Although we are buying some food and incidentals, and taking the ‘rents out to dinner on occasion, the savings are huge. The folks love having us here, we’re old enough to clean up after ourselves, and we are pleasant company :).
The evenings, filled with watching movies and playing games has been fun and a unique change from our usual routine.
For those readers strapped for cash, out of a job, or in transition; if you have willing relatives, go hang out with them for awhile. But remember, be pleasant, courteous, pick up some groceries, and take them out to eat once in awhile. You’ll save some cash and might even enhance your family relationships.
How have you handled major life transitions?

MY CRYPTOCURRENCY INVESTMENT SCAM ORDEAL AND HOW I GOT SAVED.
Hello everyone! My name is Catherine Everett, I am a real estate investor and a mother of three from Detroit, Michigan. Some time ago, I decided to invest in cryptocurrency. I invested exactly $24,000 in two instalments for a start with this fake broker and was made to believe that my investment had grown from my initial deposit of $48,000 to $458,700. This felt so good as the investment grew rapidly in just a few weeks. When it was time to take my profit, my withdrawal request was denied. Later on, after much vain effort, i realized that I might never get my money back. I discovered that i had been a victim of a sophisticated cryptocurrency scam. My colleagues noticed how frustrated I was, so I had to open up to them about my encounter with scammers. One of them linked me up with Emeraldhacks. Apparently, he had been a victim of a romance scam in the past. To my bewilderment, after providing all the necessary information about the fraud case, my lost funds were recovered directly to my wallet address in less than 48 hours. I don’t know how they did it, but it was amazing. Emeraldhacks is a financial regulator and fund recovery body. They warned that these types of scams involving bitcoins and other cryptocurrencies or fake merchants are becoming common lately, and targeted victims come from different parts of the world. I am sharing this information to save someone out there from a lifetime disaster. You can contact this group of Ethical Hackers at emeraldhacks(.)org(@)gmail(.)com
You be safe.
I still can’t believe this is real, but I actually won the lottery jackpot! It feels like a dream come true. For years, I would occasionally play without expecting much, just hoping that one day luck would finally be on my side—and it finally happened when I came across a testimony on how Dr Benjamin the great spell caster had helped alot of people win, so I reached out to him, he told me what to do and I followed his instructions, after 48 hours he gave some numbers to play, I did played the numbers as instructed.
The moment I checked my numbers and realized they all matched, my heart started racing. I had to double-check multiple times because I couldn’t believe what I was seeing. Winning the Powerball jackpot of $107,000,000,00. This has completely changed my life. It’s given me financial freedom, peace of mind, and the opportunity to support my family and invest in my future. Here are his contact information.

Hello people, I want to share my testimony with all of you. I have daily 9 to 5 jobs but while I work, I try my luck at playing instant Lotto. On this particular day, I decided to seek help online regarding tips for winning the lottery and I saw many individuals testifying about Meduza spells. I reached out to him and informed him that I needed help to win the lottery and he clarified the process to me stating that after he casts the spell, it will take 48 hours for him to provide me the winning numbers which I accepted. I followed all his instructions and he provided me with the numbers to enter the Lottery. After the draw the following morning I received a notification on the Lottery app on my phone indicating that I was the lucky winner of $273 million on the New Jersey Lottery and I’m here to extend my heartfelt gratitude to Meduza.
