    At that age he carried around a stuffed cow and absolutely loved The Wizard of Oz. Our dad loved musicals as much as martial arts movies. We were blessed to have supportive families. He’s 22 now. I saw him last weekend. He was excited to be babysitting his gf’s pet snake. He’s a good kid.

    Happy to help! The industry I work in is fairly small in number but we handle a huge portion of commercial loans.

    It’s just not one of those things most people know unless you are directly impacted by it. It’s not like Residential Mortgages as much as you’d think.

    EDIT: Also, it is BS. You’re right.

    Some of the answers you already received are partially correct, but I work in Commercial Real Estate and I’d wager it’s because when a large tenant stops operating at a location, it causes a trigger on the loan that has repercussions due the property owner. Often, they lose access to manage their own rents.

    This happens even if the tenant is still paying rent. It’s because a vacant tenant, especially a large one, loses business for the surrounding business.

    Example: A grocery store in a strip mall closes down for repairs. Even if they are still occupying the space, it would cause a trigger. Lots of the other spaces in the strip mall are more valuable with traffic from the grocery store shoppers.

    TLDR, they don’t want a loan violation that will cost them.











  • I had a coworker say cisgender was an offensive word. She is typically very openminded and supportive of the LGBTQ+ community so I was surprised.

    Turns out she didn’t know what it meant. She just heard people use it with disdain and assumed it was offensive.

    I do not understand other people.


  • What is considered high? I have an above average intelligence, but I also have ADHD.

    I have a fantastic memory, but I can’t always choose what I remember. I’m great at facts and trivia but I can’t remember things that are actually important in my life.

    I didn’t have to study in school. I could glance over the material minutes before a test and pass without trying. Then, I got to college and I didn’t know how to study as I’d never done that before. I failed out.
