Question

ohsheeT · Accepted Answer

Yes on rent a long time ago but last year I was taking car of my mother ,

She had Alzheimer's dementia
And for 4 years I didn't work the hours that I usually would work because I did not like leaving her alone

The last 18 months of her life I could not go to work except for maybe an hour to two hours if I been on little jobs and then even I had to stop doing that

So I fell really behind on all my bills and then she passed and I went to work and I haven't stopped because

I never want to be in that position again ever I almost lost my house I almost lost everything but by the grace of God and one foot in front of the other

I paid off my house
I paid all my bills and I got a little bit ahead

Keeping a roof over your head is the way to go & when I was renting I always paid my rent on time & early as well. If you pay early you can never be late.

As for paying a mortgage when I had one I always paid early & I was always two months ahead on payments so I could never be late.

Never had rent yet. Technically, being a on-campus apartment this year means it is covered by tuition.

I do, however, charge rent to @Circushowcowboy, who lives under my couch. I am fair and even toss him some skittles from time to time.

Fortunately for me no i own my home bought my first on flat out. I rented for a short time but during that time I was so hyper focused on getting ahead.
I paid all my bills on time cause I wanted stellar credit. Times was different the you couldn't be a guy with nothing living with you parent cause people thought you was a loser.
The expectation for men then wad different then.

@simslover92 When I was renting, No. My renting manager team treated me like gold! When I moved, they did not even need to inspect my apartment before they gave me back my deposit.

Yeah, but usually by accident. Until smart phones, i had to look at a calendar routinely to remember certain things. Now i can set reminders or my apps will alert me when something is due.

Never.  My credit card.. I have about 5-6 times my whole life… they always wave the fee because I pay on time all 30 years I have been with them.

Just once, a long time ago, when I was a student. It was a terrible feeling, and it only lasted about two days. My landlord was really cool about it, but I felt horrible. I will never let that happen again.

I don’t pay rent. My mortgage is paid off on my house. I just have to worry about large properties taxes and if you don’t pay it by March 31, you’re delinquent

No as I have never rented, I bought my first house when I was 22 and only had a $20,000.00 mortgage.
