Is Feb 1 normal or early notification? Seems awfully early to be normal, but seems too late for early notification.Rolvix wrote:I have made many new enemies today.

I expect that number to reach somewhere from 10 - 14 by the end of the day.
It's a sad day.

We have done that since owning our 2nd home. We had very few $ left over at the end of the month during our early married years and we knew the 1st home was gonna be for 3-5 years anyway so we put no extra $ into that one. If you look at the interest $ saved by paying off a 30 year loan in about 20 years, the amounts are amazing.ArkieDukie wrote:A fine suggestion, DD, and I've been thinking along those lines - as well as putting more into retirement.devildeac wrote:I'd certainly budget $100 or $200 monthly toward paying your mortgage off earlier.ArkieDukie wrote:Morning, all!

Filled out my taxes yesterday and found out that I'm getting a HUGE refund. (And, yes, I'll fix my withholding so that doesn't happen again!) Now comes the big decision: what to do with the big refund? New home theatre system with high-def tv, surround sound, and blu-ray player? Macro lens for my camera? A big vacation (something I've never done before)? Put the money in savings? Decisions, decisions...

), the event that solidified her decision was one Sunday in April at church when all her friends (soon to be ex-friends ) announced during Senior HS Sunday that they were going to kerlina, she happened to be the last to speak and made sure she announced in a loud and proud voice that she would be attending DUKE UNIVERSITY. Couldn't have made a MOM and POP prouder .
Go To Hell carolina! Go To Hell! They have "rolling" admissions at DuncE, IIRC, so there is early decision, then some folks are notified in mid-January and then prolly the regular notification group around 4/1.Lavabe wrote:Is Feb 1 normal or early notification?
