My boss took it to the CFO who is also the executioner around here. He said don't sweat it, her husband probably says that to her all the time.

When I was in the Army we worked in these trailers that had a whole bunch of listening workstations hooked up to computers and digital recorders. Each workstation had a primary and a secondary headphone jack so that two people could listen in and try to figure out what the Rooskies were saying, plus there was a sort of intercom feature where you could talk to someone sitting at a different workstation.
One day I'm chatting with this girl on another workstation and she asks me "What do you think of Sergeant Wilborn?" To which I replied, "You mean Sergeant Wildebeast?" (Very clever, as she was something of a portly woman with mannish features.) Of course, SGT Wildebeast also happened to be jacked in to the secondary headset and heard the whole exchange.

I went through that during my divorce. Tried loan mod to avoid foreclosure; they said they couldn't do it because I wasn't 90 days delinquent. Went 90 days delinquent, they said the rules changed and I couldn't do it unless I was current. Got current, and they rejected the loan mod.
Gave up and went for a short sale; they put me in foreclosure simultaneously, and recommended a loan mod.
Then they lost the short sale paperwork and had to start the process over, so now the short sale wouldn't close until after the foreclosure date.
During that period the loan mod was rejected again.
Delayed the foreclosure date to allow escrow to close on the short sale; at the last minute the holder of the second wouldn't agree to close unless they were paid first. Negotiated a deal with them at 20 cents on the dollar. They would only accept a cashier's check. Holder of the first said that if the money necessary to pay the second went through my acccount, they would reject the short sale since I had assets.
Ended up signing a promissory note to a friend, having him pay the holder of the second, closed the short sale, and then paid back my friend from a deferred bonus.
Took a year and a half.

Sorry to hear man, but you need to be honest with the Wife. Will she freak out more now or if the loan mod gets rejected and she finds out you knew about it but didn't tell her?

Right now, I use it as soon as I'm done mowing the yard, so at least once a week. Sometimes I'll run it again midweek if it's a high pollen day. Spring is really the only time I struggle, but if I mow and the yard is a bit on the dry side, I will use the Neti Pot out of habit. It does a phenomenal job cleaning out your passages. The stuff I blow out after a heavy day of yard work is pretty nasty. Like, coal miner nasty.Bob Sacamano said:How often do you use this thing? Daily?

Other than that, I can go weeks or even months without needing it. In the winter, I'll hit it if I'm feeling heavy in the sinus area. The warm water helps with the swelling and loosens up any material that can be blown out. Really has been a godsend for me. I do not like taking medication for allergies. It makes me sluggish, even in non-drowsy format.

Our cut isn't going to make anybody rich (not immediately) but it secures a nice revenue stream for us in perpetuity. After 3 straight years of kicks to the #####, redemptions, poor performance, no bonuses, it's nice to notch a win for Meelosh's team. Copper, zinc, palladium, gold...all these metals have an etf. But not uranium. Well, Not. Yet.
Wait, what about URA?
That's just an ETF of U Miners. As of today, there is not an ETF for physical material, like a GLD or SLV. That's what we've been working on since 2009. I might have to delete this, but I don't care. It's been a long hard journey and we're pretty excited over here.

From what I understand, this Loan Mod program is one of the shadiest things going on in America. The reported hell people go through in this is absolutely astounding. "We lost your file" is thrown around like cheap pick-up lines at Homer's bar. My sister and her STBX (it's been 18 months, no filing for divorce
) have been doing a Loan Mod for over 2 years. Something ain't right with that. No payments made while this goes on on either the first or the second. How? One more horror story I heard is that in places like Portland, where houses have rebounded 15% in the last few months (no inventory, cheap borrowing terms, houses are being sold within hours of being listed in good neighborhoods), banks that were working with people on Loan Mods are seeing actual equity return in the dwellings and so "Lost Your File" really means we're going to kick you out, sell the house, reclaim all the money you were going to cost and maybe even turn a little profit in the process.Anyhow, be careful with it Pack. Get out in front of it as much as possible. If you have a friend in the mortgage business, talk to them or talk to somebody asap about what can potentially happen to you. And yes, tell your wife. I'm sorry you're dealing with this, but if you hope that things just 'work out' it would be very wise to prepare for the opposite just in case.
