  • Getting out of it is the hardest part for us right now.

    We’re in a small 28 unit condominium, so our dues go towards insurance for all buildings (only exterior, have to have our own for studs in), water, lawn service, management company, etc. Our dues are almost $400/month.

    Yes, per month. It absolutely blows, especially when we’re trying to sell our unit and it’s been on the market for almost half a year.

    I’m the HOA president so I know what all our expenses are (and have fought to keep increases to a minimum, including negotiating the community water bill with the water company), and unless we kick out the management company (Not going to happen) the dues are just going to stay high. We’re preparing to refuse an increase for the next year.















  • I’d love to be on a GLP-1 (Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, etc). I’ve had Wegovy prescribed, but my plan excludes it and the others unless you have diabetes.

    It’s definitely one of the current “trendy” prescriptions in the USA right now, which I hate since a lot of people are using them as “get thin quick” hacks that will fix their life. Being a 300lb guy without diabetes where general diet and exercise aren’t dropping the pounds, my prescriber said I’d be a perfect candidate for it.
