    Dear Red States

    I believe our President elect said it best "...we have never been just a collection of individuals or a collection of red states and blue states. We are, and always will be, the United States of America." I would suggest the author of this piece try to balkanize another country...

    Buy and Bail

Apparently he and his sister bought a house together a few years ago that has now depreciated significantly so they were going to walk on the mortgage.

    Pediatrician Recommendation?

    Congratulations! Take a look at <a href="http://www.irvinepediatrics.yourmd.com/">Irvine Pediatrics</a>. They are near the Irvine Regional Hospital at Sand Canyon and Alton. I think they see half the kids in Irvine so they can be busy but I would recommend them.

    Just bought a house in Woodbury

    <p><em>"So with tax break on the house and our kid, we hope to get back around 1K a month."</em></p> <p>The house and child deduction will offer some tax relief but if your wife continues to work you are looking at $1K/mo minimum in childcare if your wife works after the baby arrives (unless...

    <p>I wonder if you buy a house at Costco does it come with some guy in a red vest standing at the door, checking, then highlighting your mortgage note every time you leave your house...</p> <p> </p>
