ServoMST3K posted:I figure this didn't warrant its own thread so here it goes: I live at home, I'm 30, I have my BS in psychology and I haven't worked in a few years due to depression and other things. I really think living at home is holding me back from moving forward with my life and I need to try something different. Other pertinent details: I live near Boston so rent isn't exactly cheap, I declared bankruptcy in early 2015 due to having huge credit card balances and not working, and I'm fairly certain I defaulted on my student loans. I know defaulting is probably a very bad thing to have done but I didn't care at the time due to mental health issues. You probably don't need a credit check if you're subletting from a roommate and in Boston you'll probably need a roommate. Check craigslist for people looking to replace a leaving roommate and I bet they'll be plenty of ads.

mobby_6kl posted:Okay so VAT is a non-issue. I buy at the listed price (including the tax) and sell at whatever markup I want. That's it, until like $50k revenue or so when a different rules kick in. There's a German seller, which sucks, but France doesn't have one for example. I know ebay's gonna take 10% and there might be some other small gotchas but this is a pretty cheap way to find out. No risk no reward, right. I tried selling some old wargaming miniatures on ebay and in my experience, it was only worthwhile if you consider your time completely worthless. By the time I'd listed, packaged, and shipped; I would have made more money working at Mcdonald's.

They probably won't need her credit but if he ever died in a car crash, having credit of her own would be one less nightmare to navigate.

BaseballPCHiker posted:Wondering how many people here with spouse/kids have gone the single car route. One thing you should consider going down to 1 car is what would happen if you suddenly went down to 0 cars. Car values are up so it's tempting to sell. The flip side of that is that repairs that took a 2 or 3 days three years ago take 2 or 3 months and rental cars are way less available. If the car got in a bad accident or had a transmission fail would you be able to borrow a car or find alternate transportation? Or would you be scrambling to buy whatever overpriced used car you could get your hands on that day? I like messing around with cars and we've gone from 5 in various states of repair to 2 good ones. But, I can't imagine making the jump down to 1 even working from home with no kids. It would make every single car problem an immediate emergency.
