If you can’t make this idea happen on a 15-year, fixed-rate mortgage that Dave takes no more than 25 percent of your takehome pay, then you can’t afford this project. Think about this too. If you buy a complex and live on the property, you’ll have to set down and enforce some strict renter’s guidelines. Living with renters can be tricky, because they’ll have access to you 24 hours a day, and some of them will abuse the privilege. Then again, you’ll have that kind of access to them as well. Not exactly a bad thing when you have people living in a complex you own. Here’s an option. What if you just bought a nice, inexpensive single family home for yourself? You wouldn’t have the cash flow, but you will have the appreciation and a better chance of reselling down the road. Plus, if you want to invest further, there are always mutual funds. Real estate plans work out just like you want them to only about half the time. Don’t discount the risk and expense either! — Dave RAMSEY Taking the Trip The Real Heroes By Gov. Dennis Daugaard Politicians have a tendency to try to take credit for things, especially in an election year. They talk about how many jobs they’ve created, how they’ve kept our cities safe and how they’ve assisted the less fortunate. Our veterans, on the other hand, don’t seek the spotlight. They don’t expect recognition – even though they are the ones who really deserve the credit for our way of life. That’s why we celebrate Veterans Day. To give credit to those who seek it least and yet deserve it most. It’s also an opportunity to remember those who fought in our earliest conflicts. Next year will mark the centennial of the United States’ official involvement in World War I. This “war to end all wars” was a global affair which lasted from 1914 to 1918, but the United States did not officially enter until 1917. In 1915 and 1916, while the U.S. was still contemplating its level of engagement, groups of American men made the decision to enlist with foreign armies to fight against the Central Powers. On their own accord, they volunteered to fight abroad, joining the British Army, French Foreign Legion and other Allied services. These men were citizen soldiers. They were farmers, machinists, dock workers and blacksmiths who left their day jobs to fight for freedom. They joined the struggle before it was even asked of them.

While Scott worked Amandine, Crunchy Cranberry Salad at a job to make some money for their move, Janalyn worked hard canning dozens of jars of jam and fruit. By the time they packed the truck to move to their new life on in New York City, they had a lot of wonderful homegrown food to take with them. Recently, when we asked them what they wanted for Christmas, it was no surprise that Janalyn said she wanted a pressure canner of her own. We knew we couldn’t afford a new one of the quality we wanted for her, so we started looking for a Dear Dave, nice used one. But she found one before we did. It was almost I have to make a four-day business trip to Hawaii soon, and my new and was about half price. The problem was, they had no wife would like to go along.

True to Michael his word, the man selling the canner was waiting. Scott bought the canner and then looked at the train schedule and found out he had an hour and a half before the return train would arrive. The station was closed, so he set the canner on the ground, Dear Michael, If I were in your situation, and I told my wife I didn’t think it was leaned against it, and started reading a book. It wasn’t too long a good idea or we couldn’t afford it, there’s a good chance I’d be before he heard a strong, commanding voice. He looked up and saw two police officers standing at opposite sides of him, each sleeping on the couch for a month. Take your lady with you!

Scott said he didn’t mind. In fact, he was happy that they were so careful. The first two officers stayed with him until the train came. They even informed the conductor that Scott was okay and that his canner was okay, too. But Scott found that as he traveled, even though he left the lid off so everyone could see the canner was empty, no one trusted him. He sat at the back of the train and the Light Rail, and as people would come our citizen soldiers, the men and women of our National back and see the canner, they immediately went back to the Guard, to step up and defend our country.

Dear Dave, I’ve been out of college for a few years, and I have no debt. I’d like to start investing, so I’m thinking about buying a triplex, living in one of the apartments, and renting the other two. Should I get an interest-only loan for this?
