Oh hey I didn't notice that one of my favorite threads in all of SA got rebooted for the new year. And it's in TFR for a while, hooray!GoGoGadgetChris posted:Do transfers vary in cost by region? I've got a kitchen table FFL in my area that only charges $15 because he wants to see neat guns and meet interesting people. Yeah, they vary big time. I'd say the average around me is $35 or more. Also, some SOTs charge ridiculous fees to transfer NFA items.

I also got a checking account LOC as a college student, it was for at least $2-3k. I drew out like $1500 or so to help buy my first motorcycle. (Limited BWM as I paid it back in 1 or 2 months) I doubt I had any credit back then.

senrath posted:Virginia has a weird one where you can claim anonymously but only if the prize is over $10 million. $10 million or less, tough poo poo, everyone knows your name, face, and hometown. And that law is only a year or so old, before that it was tough poo poo for everyone. Ive wondered how that works for games like "Cash 4 Life." Do they have an actuarial table they refer to do determine if, on average, your prize will be worth $10M or more?

JnnyThndrs posted:I always though you had to PAY 10% in order for the bondsman to take the risk for the other 90%. Luckily I never had to find out personally. Correct, at least in my state. You pay the 10% up front to the bondsman and it's gone forever even if you show up for all court appearances. AreWeDrunkYet posted:Isn't the whole point of a bail bond that you're only liable for 10% or so of the bail instead of the full amount? Like isn't what happened the risk the bail bondsman signed up for? A bail bondsman is a licensed professional. This is just an idiot who cosigned the bond agreement because the arrestee didn't have the resources or didn't want to put up their own resources to post bail.

There were a few times at house parties and after work when some folks in our office were smoking some weed (which was legal in DC). This guy was very insistent that he never smoke it, because "I might want to get a security clearance one day." They would not have cared.
