Prop 19 will help people aged 55+ to keep their current property tax if they sell their current house and buy a new house in CA. This is my understanding of it. Example: You bought a home for $500,000 back in 2000 (Property tax in 2024 is probably around $7,000) Your home is now worth...

I ate some hammer burger in Santa Ana yesterday. It was ok. I think Gourmade is still better. https://hammerburger.com/ Why? I felt the hammer burger was kinda small vs. peters gourmade. .....however it is a smash burger so ....i guess it was suppose to be that way.

My co-worker got into a car accident last month and was not at fault. He and his wife were hurt, but not too bad. He skipped a day of work. He hired one of those billboard lawyers. After the car was repaired, his payout from the insurance company was $27,000. The split was as such: 1/3 -...

I often wonder after my house burned, if I should have hired a lawyer to extract as much money from State Farm as humanly possible. However, I did not do this and worked with the state farm insurance adjuster on the fair value of the payout. State Farm still insures this house...and did not...

It's because $20.00 per hour for fast food workers...anyone making less are now eyeballing that rate and thinking of jumping ship...if they can find it. Labor is way too expensive in USA...You better get good at fixing and maintaining your own residence. Calls on HD because more amateur home...

I got 32,000 miles before replacing my Continental pro contact EV stock tires. I changed to Continental pure contact regular tires. EV tires are suppose to include some layer that makes it more quiet. I just bought regular tires. The pure contact Continentals have a thicker tread than pro...

I always think the Chinese neighbors keep to themselves cause they don't wanna get gestopo'd. I mean moving a couple of million from China to Irvine so they can buy a house must be breaking some kind of law there. How can Chinese legally move $50,000 per annum and be able to buy a house in Cali?

People don't wanna have kids, because it's become way too expensive and way too stressful. To get into UC Irvine these days require the following: $6,000 per year volleyball club $85 per hour music lessons $500 per month KUMON $10,000 for college counselor so their chances of getting into...

So I guess it was worth it being in the high pressure environment and gaining 20 LBS. It made you the man you are today no? Perhaps going to UNI HS is a good idea then..even if you go to a crappier college.

I agree with you. Going to a low pressure HS and getting valedictorian so you can get into a better university is a smarter way to live the life you've been given. I'm just trying to help justify the people who bought over priced houses in turtle rock. Uni HS is awesome. Your kids get to be...

Retard high school are schools ranked 5 or lower. I agree with you panda...but there is something to be said for putting your kid in a pressure cooker. If the end goal is to go to a awesome college then getting top 5 at a retard HS is great. But if you want your kid to really get stronger...I'd...
