[13:26] D3V: haah that's odd, they just have to make sure you are clean before you start just in case insurance cases were to come up after you've been working there for 'x' amount of years.

[13:26] Willkillforfood: yea

[13:26] Willkillforfood: their insurance has to be expensive

[13:26] Willkillforfood: it's 100% with a very tiny copay

[13:27] Willkillforfood: good dental, prescription, and vision coverage too

[13:27] Willkillforfood: so I guess they're hard on you when you first get on

[13:28] D3V: excellent, you've got a good gig then man.

[13:28] D3V: yeah, exactly.

[13:29] Willkillforfood: yea

[13:29] Willkillforfood: Check this shit out, 11 year old bought $44 mil in real estate

[13:29] Willkillforfood: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn...05390.html?g=0

[13:29] Willkillforfood: I'd strangle that kid

[13:30] D3V: holy sh*

[13:30] D3V: those oil warlords are so damn well off.

[13:31] Willkillforfood: i know

[13:31] Willkillforfood: crazy bastards

[13:33] D3V: big brother: http://www.cnn.com/2010/TRAVEL/03/05...ex.html?hpt=T2

[13:35] Willkillforfood: lol

[13:35] Willkillforfood: creepy looking

[13:36] D3V: so have you started looking into getting some real estate within the next few months? new house*

[13:37] D3V: I believe they extended the hosue buyer tax credit.

[13:38] Willkillforfood: I'll have to talk to my boss about that

[13:38] Willkillforfood: probably not going to buy a house

[13:38] Willkillforfood: unless I just do -great- and I feel there's no way I could get laid off

[13:38] D3V: ah

[13:38] Willkillforfood: I'd hate to be stuck with a mortgage

[13:38] D3V: I see, not getting too ahead of yourself.

[13:39] D3V: probably a good judgement.

[13:40] Willkillforfood: Yea

[13:40] Willkillforfood: I hate missing out on a tax credit

[13:40] Willkillforfood: it's pretty unfair to those of us who aren't in a position just yet, imo

[13:40] Willkillforfood: Subsidizing them

[13:40] Willkillforfood: but that's okay

[13:41] D3V: yeah I agree, but its one of those deals I suppose..

[13:41] Willkillforfood: Real estate prices are down enough that in a few years it'll be a sweet time to enter

[13:41] Willkillforfood: How's prices in FL?

[13:41] D3V: i'd love to get some property along with a house myself.

[13:41] Willkillforfood: how're^

[13:42] D3V: yeah exactly. Shiz, there's a house near where I live that's in the 65-70 range. 1200sqft I believe 3/2/garage just a simple little house but would normally run 140-150k

[13:42] Willkillforfood: fuck

[13:42] Willkillforfood: lo

[13:42] Willkillforfood: lol

[13:42] Willkillforfood: I wish I was in a position to get a vacation house

[13:43] D3V: I don't keep up with it much, but something like that would be managable, subtract another $-8000 for the credit and it's about 50 ya'know? And will probably be worth 4x that much in 15 years.

[13:43] D3V: yeah I agree definitely.

[13:43] Willkillforfood: I'll need to get bumped a couple pay grades for that though, lol

[13:43] Willkillforfood: Well they don't give you 8k for a 50k house I think

[13:43] Willkillforfood: It depends on the price of your house

[13:43] Willkillforfood: 8k is the max

[13:43] D3V: oh it scales? alright I have no clue abou tit.

[13:43] D3V: about it*

[13:44] Willkillforfood: yea

[13:44] Willkillforfood: There's always fine print

[13:44] Willkillforfood: :D

[13:44] Willkillforfood: It'll still a sweet deal

[13:44] Willkillforfood: you might get 5k instead or something like that

[13:45] D3V: yeah probably, sounds more likely

[13:45] D3V: but even still, just the market alone makes it a great time to buy.

[13:45] Willkillforfood: Yea

[13:46] Willkillforfood: real-estate was just too high

[13:46] Willkillforfood: education is the next bubble

[13:46] Willkillforfood: college is going up too quickly

[13:46] Willkillforfood: and value of degrees is going down imo

[13:47] Willkillforfood: There are too many out there now

[13:47] D3V: yeah something is going to have to be done, I noticed some protests happenign around the nation yesterday.

[13:47] Willkillforfood: community college is great bang for your buck though

[13:47] D3V: yeah it really is, great stepping stone. I figure if you can get through CC with good enough grades and get some scholarships then you don't have too much to worry about.

[13:47] Willkillforfood: Yea. I know Californians were bitching because they were having to pay what the rest of the country pays for education

[13:47] Willkillforfood: or maybe less

[13:48] D3V: Haha yeah, sucks for them but welcome to the club. All of the big time universities around here are already outrageous.

[13:48] Willkillforfood: Their budget can't handle that

[13:48] Willkillforfood: yea

[13:48] D3V: It's really sad too, we need more educated people. I have so many friends that would love to get into college but they just can't afford it and can't get any help.

[13:48] Willkillforfood: California is at risk of defaulting on its debts

[13:49] D3V: yeah they're in a bit of a mess right now.

[13:49] D3V: well, they have been it's been building up, but now it's about to boil over completely

[13:49] System: Willkillforfood has left the chat

[13:50] System: Willkillforfood has joined the chat

[13:50] Willkillforfood: lame thing DCed me

[13:50] Willkillforfood: Are your friends 23?

[13:50] D3V: haha, pos.

[13:51] Willkillforfood: I gotta do my girlfriend's fasfa soon

[13:51] D3V: yeah.

[13:51] Willkillforfood: or she could do it, lol

[13:51] Willkillforfood: being 23 helps a lot

[13:51] D3V: ahh fun times. I just had to re-do mine.

[13:51] D3V: yeah can't you file as independent at that age?

[13:51] Willkillforfood: yep

[13:51] Willkillforfood: you use your income

[13:52] Willkillforfood: which is likely much less than your parents

[13:52] Willkillforfood: lol

[13:52] D3V: I can't wait.

[13:52] D3V: I want to live off of loans completely once I move to gville.

[13:52] D3V: well not completely, but figuratively speaking most of the way. I'm sure i'll still have some sort of bs job.

[13:53] Willkillforfood: yea

[13:53] Willkillforfood: I would REALLY recommend working while in school if possible

[13:53] Willkillforfood: It's very competitive and keeping a job while in school helps prove you're a hard worker

[13:54] D3V: oh yeah of course, that debt piles up super-fast. I've been lucky enough with CC to not really accumulate any debt thus far.

[13:54] Willkillforfood: Athletics are good too, and joining a fraternity is good for getting a job

[13:54] Willkillforfood: especially if you get an office role

[13:54] D3V: yeah that is a good idea.

[13:54] Willkillforfood: What major are you going for?

[13:54] D3V: the school i'll be transfering to when I complete my AA has tons of athletics, nothing like the crap I have around where I live now.

[13:55] System: Thanatos has joined the chat

[13:55] Thanatos: wellll haiiiiiiiii

[13:55] D3V: well omgawh hi thar

[13:55] Willkillforfood: talking about school

[13:56] Thanatos: education is for idiots

[13:56] Willkillforfood: lol

[13:56] D3V: hah

[13:56] Willkillforfood: if you can get a job with the railroad you're better off doing that than going to college probably

[13:56] Willkillforfood: in most cases

[13:57] Thanatos: all you need are good looks to get ahead in life

[13:57] Willkillforfood: or something good like that

[13:57] Willkillforfood: Good lucks definitely help

[13:57] Willkillforfood: Good lucks and being in good shape.

[13:57] Willkillforfood: looks

[13:58] D3V: yeah, it doesnt hurt

[13:58] Willkillforfood: What major do you want, D3v?

[13:58] Willkillforfood: For the best jobs in accounting they want abercrombie and fitch models

[13:58] Willkillforfood: they don't even care if you're the smartest in your class

[13:58] Willkillforfood: no joke

[13:58] D3V: i don't honestly know anymore. I thought I had it all planned by going through radiologic schooling, but with all of the medical courses and med school itself, I don't think I have the patience for it.

[13:58] Willkillforfood: entry-level jobs^

[13:58] D3V: wow, yeah that blows. They need *reps

[13:59] Willkillforfood: yea

[13:59] Thanatos: I lucked out somehow
