Second consecutive solidly BN snowfall season here. 29” for 20-21. Up from 19.5” over 19-20’s total.

Congrats to those getting the goods today. Just a bit too far E and the slot is making a bee line for here now too.

Snowing in Boston on the webcams.

200/day? 75k/year. Heart disease claims 1800/day, but it’s not “contagious”.

Most on my mom’s side live well into their 90s, a couple pushing 100+. My dad’s side, different story. He’s 64 and healthy enough, his older living brother is 66. His other brothers died at 51 and 56. His dad (my grandfather) died at 63. None of his uncles lived longer than 68. I take after his side. I may need to retire at 45.

I think that’s the most likely outcome at this point. Inside 495 kind of deal. Scooter jackpot.

If you have a throwaway email, feel free to share or PM me. I have a redacted copy I can share with you for Schitts and giggles.

Let’s keep pushing this beast ESE. I need a 2/1 redemption.

Dang...I may need to visit my brother in Lowell.

If Stoneham gets 20”, does George win an award?

100% agree. My attorney isn’t nuking the deal, just raising flags. If the condo docs were available, that would probably help a lot.

I’m guessing the developer won’t get all units to pay cash...otherwise, he’s up Schitt’s Creek.

The annual rent from the lessee developer to lessor is $10. Not sure I see the benefit?

Any concern that the lessor could raise the lease payment for the land? What if this third party lessor goes belly up or gets this leased land tied up in litigation. Would this cloud my title and prevent me from selling? I will add that the condo docs are still not finalized...I have until next Friday to sign P&S, I will need a condition to be included for my unfettered personal satisfaction of the condo docs once finalized and received. Otherwise, I walk. I’m in phase one. Apparently, phase two will increase sales prices by $20k across the board.

I know we have some real estate gurus here...seeking input. I’m looking into purchasing a condo in a new development (<15 units) that is still under construction. Today, I learned that the land will be leased to the developer in a 95 year Grounds Lease for a nominal sum. So, essentially, the developer (lessee) would be subletting to the unit owners. The lessor is a third party LLC. My attorney is concerned as it could cause resale problems down the road. My realtor isn’t so concerned. I know I’m probably leaving a lot of important details out, but on its face, does this seem like a situation to avoid?

I find myself working more at home. No cutting out for long commutes or chatty co-workers.

@PhineasC

Alcohol thins the blood. I’d be more concerned for you if you didn’t have plans to drink lots of alcohol this weekend.

Just started Schitts. Really good.

I hope mask mandates eventually go away, but, in the future, I would love to see people mask up in public places when they know they’re sick, even if it’s just the common cold. Common courtesy. Ain’t gonna happen, but I can dream.

I bet by June, barring any large scale changes, we’re seeing full capacity returning and limited or no masks. California will be the real catalyst, giving cover to other governors.

44F dark and breezy.

Probably won’t be this nice on a Saturday again until sometime in June probably. What a day!

I was only in the office 1 day per week pre-COVID. Traveled around 7-10 nights per month though.

Like @RUNNAWAYICEBERG said. Keep grinding away. My older brother was in a similar spot. Similar type job that paid a decent wage, but he maxed out. He didn’t want to be there long term. So, with two young kids and a wife working full time, he finished his degree at night. He graduated in December, started applying for long term substitute positions. He just passed all of his MTELs, and will likely be offered a full time teaching position in the fall. He loves it. He’s 34 and just is getting to where he wants to be.
