A new Tower project completed!

I'm not even sure it's in the USA yet. I believe projected US price is about $1435.00. And yup, it should be ideal for door construction.

That's probably the whole story right there. Most people think $39.99 is thirty nine bucks. I call it forty.

Truth! They're giving a generous 0.1% interest on checking now, and nearly half a percent on $10k+ CDs. Well, they were before the Eurocrisis...

You're forgetting #4 Get a home equity loan My HELOC costs me 2.24% No first mtg CC's paid off every month

In effect, I'm using the HELOC as my cushion.

Thanks, Han, but I really don't want to put the house up as collateral.

Egad. After reading the tidbits on Wiki, I won't be doing a HELOC, even if they're still being done, or are being offered again.

a happy article.

I can pay off the HELOC next week, if necessary. At the moment it provides the cushion more easily than other methods, increases my credit rating and doesn't cost me much at all, after the tax advantages.

I don't know whether they are still being done at this rate, but, hey, I got it.

I always thought it was 39 bucks and 99 cents.

I figure closer to $45, accounting for taxes.....

I hate you. :-(

If I saved all the pennies from those sale prices over the past 40 years, I could probably buy a new, um, CD or something.
