No worries about the job, it was voluntary. The company made an offer to all employees, and I knew at age 62 I was never going to see a deal like that again, so I took it.

Very nice. You know, In the 1990s I tried to buy a house in Western Washington and could not. Eventually I left the country for 15 years and returned. The housing in Western wA is WAY to expensive. To many speculators, Tech boom house buyers "most earn 5 and 6 figure incomes" caused our houses to sky rocket. What is the house market in your city?

Like in most city’s prices go up in the right neighborhoods and surrounding towns. For new buyers it is almost impossible to buy a house now. As money is loosing its value people are investing their money in bricks which results in even higher prices. Even in during the current situation prices have been going up.
we live fairly close to the German border where prices are a lot lower which helps to contain it a bit. Places like Amsterdam are totally crazy.
well the Netherlands I've well the Netherlands I've
have you traced down the source of income from these Byers? Extremely wealthy Chinese having fleeing China for at least 20 years. 10 billion dollars a month leaves China and even buying real estate and some of the most crime beautiful port cities around the world. What are the top cities was Vancouver British Columbia. I used to live there and I tell you what it is just wonderful but the problem is the cost of housing was just astronomical. Unless a local or a immigrant bought a house everyone else was locked out of the market. United States is a hell hole. it has almost no social safety net at all. if an American becomes disabled and applies for SSDI which is our form of disability insurance he or she will be lucky to see 680 to $1,200 a month. I have seen countless intellectually and physically disabled people that are homeless because their rent was much higher than their disability check. California is becoming Ground Zero for hell. the state has a really high murder rate. He has with the highest homeless rates in the country it's experiencing one of the highest fire rates in the country. I I have read a lot about the Netherlands and how its government has taken care of it's people

Little side project.
started with making a CAD (card board aided design) template.
the rest is self explaining.
Now it needs a connection to the spindle and some treaded holes to attach it.
