(He includes <a href="http://blog.potterzot.com/2007/08/13/buy-or-rent-part-ii-non-money-reasons/" rel="nofollow noopener">an article about non-financial reasons</a> too)</p> <p>His numbers are funny - ie. drastically different than what it right in Pittsburgh, though I acknowledge that Pittsburgh has high rents compared to house prices.</p>tag:blog.limedaley.com,2018:/isso/569/24922007-09-05T14:30:39ZThe Decision Strategist<p>Hi Jon,</p> <p>Thanks for your comments. I'll have a look at my buy vs rent spreadsheets and correct them for the errors you pointed out. I really appreciate it.</p> <p>-Nick</p>tag:blog.limedaley.com,2018:/isso/569/24912007-08-31T23:17:40ZTom<p>Lots more space to store 'what might be helpful' in computer archives than filing cabinets.</p> <p>In prep for discussing popular understandings of Christmas in an Adult Education, I watched Tim Allen's The Santa Clause. One of the amusing parts was when FedEx brought a first floor worth of boxes with lists for Santa to mark 'naughty or nice' in his suburban home. Would have been a lot easier to have a filter sort 'naughty or nice' on a web based program!</p>
