All Encompassing Mortgage and Real Estate Thread
You can’t always go by the lumber futures price as a guide for actual lumber cost in a deal. We closed a new apartment build project in March. Bought the lumber contract in April for $1.1M savings vs the March budget. We’re getting significant savings like this across the board on most trades on two projects currently under construction that started in March and April, and a third that will start in November. The purchasing guys at our preferred GCs usually tell me the futures price isn’t very well correlated with our lumber/framing contract price. FWIW.

RIP Chuck Mangione
Late to this thread but RIP Chuck. As has been mentioned earlier my dad wore his album out when I was a kid in the early 70s. Always dug him and that cool ass hat Never gets talked about but the guitar solo in feels so right just rips. You can see it here at 2:04. Dude goes to town on the big old fat clean guitar

Everything is Shit: Tracking the Great Enshittening
No one cares. I had this conversation with younger family members when social media showed up. They all just looked at me like I had 3 heads. These same people still have their Venmo activity set as public. Such is life.

No need to apologize to me. Been down that road. Headed down it again now. My questions aren’t at all intended to minimize the challenge.

Getting old sucks
Totally get that. Honest question - what good is letting it bother you do? And for the record, I’m not suggesting it isn’t normal human nature to let it bother you because of course it is. Im just asking another philosophical question…

Getting old sucks
Incoming philosophical question alert: Does it really suck though? Isn’t it just the natural order of things? And if you know it’s coming, and allow yourself to be ok with it not sucking, doesn’t that just help us appreciate and make the most out of whatever time we have?

Also what’s the feedback on new tundras? Thinking about swapping my Sierra for one. Are they up to typical Toyota standards? See a few issues noted online but wondering what the real story is.

Epstein and Maxwell
Two questions One - is there anyone on the planet that thinks there is less than a one hundred percent chance that he was absolutely a participant in whatever was going on with Epstein? Two - is there anyone on the planet that thinks there is less than a one hundred percent chance he will face no consequences no matter what information comes out? TL;DR - everyone knows he did it. Everyone knows nothing will happen. Good times.
