    after that you can tap into home equity and repair say a roof.

    There’s no, “tapping into home equity.” There’s only extending the mortgage with more debt.

    20 years ago my sister did all sorts of home improvements that she said were free because she was “tapping into equity”. Now she’s nearing retirement and complains she still has giant mortgage payments.





  • I’m guilty of ignoring my water heaters. Had my backup start to leak and it cost $1500 to replace. So I immediately bought a new anode rod for my primary tank. Drained/flushed it and replaced the old rod which was completely gone. It was an easy task but you will need a cheap impact wrench, 1 1/16" socket and chain link anode rod to make it easy.

    It’s something you need to do every couple of years. But I never do it.

    Regarding LTT, we are simply going to state the relevant facts:

    On 10th August, we were told by LTT via email that the block had been sold at auction. There was no apology.

    We replied on 10th August within 30 minutes, telling LTT that this wasn’t okay, and that this was a £XXXX prototype, and we asked if they planned to reimburse us at all.

    We received no reply and no offer of payment until 2 hours after the Gamers Nexus video went live on 14th August, at which point Linus himself emailed us directly.

    The exact monetary value of the prototype was offered as reimbursement. We have not received, nor have we asked for any other form of compensation."

    Time-stamped emails were provided as proof.
