Mom survived another round of layoffs (6% of her group) @ El Paso ($EP) after 40 years working there (formerly Tenneco)

 

My wife had to stay late as an "escort" :-) @ Baker Hughes to assist in layoffs, one person has been there for almost 30 years.

 

I can't imagine what would happen if the Cap-n-Tax bill gets passed!

 

Tough times persist.

Fun times in Ocean County NJ...

 

Property taxes in some locals just tripled over night...

 

For Sale signs are going up like dandelions...

That's why I moved out west.....

 

My taxes dropped about 35% this year in Vegas.If I kept my house in Jersey,I would now be paying 14k per year,Instead I am now paying less than $2,500.

 

And that 14k would be in atlantic county...one of the cheaper ones :unsure:

Why? WTF is wrong with Ocean County?

 

Did they dabble in derivatives like their cousin, Orange County?

NJ has some incredible communities and some of the best schools anywhere.But it's still an absolute rip-off.I will never live there again if I can help it......

 

Just paying tolls in Jersey is more than I pay in property taxes each year in Vegas.Simply insane :angry2:

Hey man...

 

... you can't pay the Chief of police $300,000 salary and a $240,000 annual lifetime pension (retiring at 55)

 

...and the head of public works (no high school diploma) $175,000 salary and a $125,000 annual pension

 

unless you got's the cash

P.S. - I made up the above figures, the real numbers are probably much higher

TJ....nice work on Late Night Lost

 

....did you catch the conversation when they were talking about AMZN and they all couldn't come up with a reason for it to be priced where it's at nor buy it...( except No show SuperNova who will be long when it crashes) ...then I think it was Seymour Butts or Groucho who said "off camera" he talked to a price target pumper and told him "you can't think about valuations for three years.....not even an issue now..."

 

They were saying the same sheet 10 years ago...so now we are supposed to give em three years ?????
