We did that whole RH thing. My boss and I both learned from both sides not to do that again.
They require for you to work for them for 6 months while they skim off of your paycheck. After the 6 months, they charge the client company $5k to buyout your contract. Otherwise, you move on to other pastures, no matter if they're greener or not.
How is that even legal? It's 100% against the law here.

Not in the US. If you sign a contract of your own free will, it's hard to not have it be enforced. You could fight it in court, but you'd lose more than you'll lose just giving up. And in most states, you'd lose anyway since you, as a non-employee, signed the contract. They are a little like a union.

So at 5PM today I got an email saying that there will be edocs sent over from the person I had a skype meeting with.
Interesting, you sent the warning/fyi email about 5 hours AFTER someone already sent them to me.
This is just turning humorous. -
@Texkonc It's a sad, sad state of affairs over there.

No idea. I'd never heard of it before I ran across the commercial. It might be fun though since I actually have a 360 and a Kinect.

We're getting dangerously close to the point where I'm going to need to do a lot of research about property taxes, school districts, builders, children, etc. Ahhhhhh!

How about a Neg Am? Those are fun.We're going to have a very small mortgage, or no mortgage. It depends on how much we want to spend out of our nest egg. We may just pay it off and then reimburse ourselves but we would lose a lot of investment gains/dividends. We'll see

Morgtage rates are actually really decent right now even if they are going to get worse in the near future. You'd often be better off purchasing a house with a mortgage and investing the rest of the money.

Excatly - this is a numbers game. If you can get a mortgage for 2-3% versus returns of 5+ in the market.. take the loan. To top it off, interest is tax deductible from your income so that makes your effective mortgage interest rate just that much lower.

Why would you do that? You want a mortgage for the biggest percentage possible! Never do that. This is terrible, terrible financial planning. Just throwing money away.
