ben_vulpes "Gen X talked a lot about the revolution, and then went and got themselves some venture capital and started laying into place the oversaturated, paranoid world we live in now. A lot of them tried to tell themselves they were still punk as fuck, but it’s hard to morally reconcile the thing where you listen to Fugazi on the way to your job where you help find new ways to trick people into giving up their data to advertisers. Most people [00:02]
ben_vulpes don’t even bother. They just compartmentalize." [00:02]
ben_vulpes "But the world changed again. And kept changing. So now you’ve got this degree that’s worth fuck-all, a house that’s worth more as scrap lumber than as a substantial investment, and you’re either going to lose your job or have to do the work of two people, because there’s a recession on. Except they keep saying the recession ended, so why are you still working twice as hard for the same amount of money?" [00:03]

The20YearIRCloud Even though I explained to them it creates liability on my end because unless what I say goes through atty review, it opens the company up to liability. [05:35]
The20YearIRCloud And that's what investors should be concerned about : Timeframes, equity statements, income projections [05:35]

Vexual well, whers the new funding then? [05:36]
The20YearIRCloud Hopefully next week [05:36]
Vexual who? [05:36]
The20YearIRCloud We have preliminary approval finally from a lender who offered us pretty attractive terms, and the setup is essentially open-ended [05:37]
Vexual is it reasonable to realease info here? [05:37]
The20YearIRCloud Yeah , it's a 100k line of credit @ 5% or so and interest only payments, we use LOC to go out and buy new properties, rehab them then refinance the property to cashout the LOC [05:38]
The20YearIRCloud The refinance is prime + 2% as a commercial mortgage to our LLC, which is a pretty decent rate. The big benefit compared to just going out and refinancing all the properties at once is that the investors essentially won't see any decreases in the small dividends that they're getting now, only growth. [05:39]
Vexual i know all that [05:39]
The20YearIRCloud ok [05:40]
Vexual why are your good ol boys so slow at fising a house? [05:40]
Vexual *fixing [05:40]
The20YearIRCloud Because we pay them 1/2 the rate that the fast contractors charge :D [05:40]
Vexual are they better? [05:41]
The20YearIRCloud On top of that, i've had to make the choice between quick repairs and losing them to other firms, and giving them all the work they can handle at a slower pace. They prefer working for me over other crews, but in order to speed up the rehab time, I have to hire more people. The more people I hire without a big budget, the higher the chance of regular layoffs [05:41]
The20YearIRCloud which make workers find work elsewhere [05:41]
Vexual but you have a crew you employ on a permenant basis? [05:42]
The20YearIRCloud Yes, they're fantastic. Right now we employ 2 guys full time who are doing virtually everything associated with repair/renovation [05:42]
asciilifeform enlighten me re: 'rent' setup. if i recall, the properties all cost five-figure usd sums... why would anyone rent these ? (that is, who is so poor to rent vs. buy a mud shack like this, but could still make timely rent?) [05:42]
The20YearIRCloud Yes, and that's why rehab is so slow, becuase they both have families, and my preference is not to give them a income rollercoaster [05:42]

asciilifeform peterl: i also rent. but not mud shack. [05:42]
The20YearIRCloud asciilifeform: in our area, the median home value is around $100k, most of the properties we have are worth around $75k or so after rehab, so they're not really bad houses. Most of our renters have small-ish incomes and they don't want to mess with repairs [05:43]
Vexual well they might want a kick in the rectum wehn you ge some more cahs [05:43]
asciilifeform aha [05:43]
The20YearIRCloud Most people I've talked to don't have the cash outlay to fix say a $4k roof when the time comes, and they make the choice of renting so someone else has to deal with it. [05:43]
The20YearIRCloud Outside of the multi-family properties we have that we haven't been able to renovate, all our properties are very nice [05:44]
peterl currently US banks require a large down payment to get a mortgage, USians have no savings, therefore they can't buy a house [05:44]
asciilifeform peterl: and, i imagine plenty of the ones who can - would rather be shot [05:44]
The20YearIRCloud Correct, and many don't have good credit either, most americans can't manage their money [05:44]
The20YearIRCloud The last house we bought was $23k, and it is in fantastic shape - New electric, new plumbing, ~1200sf and the woodwork throughout is from 1890 [05:45]
cazalla 75k for a house, that's just the deposit in this suburb : [05:45]
asciilifeform 75k buys, perhaps, a garage here. [05:45]

chetty BingoBoingo, yeah it actually sounds pretty yucky, but I suppose if you are about to die of ebola ... [19:11]
mircea_popescu it'd be too late, then [19:12]
BingoBoingo The serum's basically 3 different antibodies for three different targets on the Ebola virus found by giving mice ebola until they could create clonal lines for the cells producing these antibodies and then making tobacco grow it all [19:12]
chetty mircea_popescu, apparently not, this serum appears to be curing it [19:12]
mircea_popescu o wow. [19:13]
BingoBoingo Generally though if you get a monoclonal antibody that targets something, it's going to kill it. The remarkable thing is they went ahead and found three just to be safe. [19:13]

mircea_popescu tbh i think this throws a monkey wrench in the future viability of "big pandemic" scenarios. [19:15]
mircea_popescu it's vanishingly improbable for an antibody to not exist. thus finding it becomes a matter of... well... how much hashing you're doing [19:15]
mircea_popescu so if it comes to it... ten trillion mice. why not. [19:15]
BingoBoingo Well, this stuff takes time, but yeah... One thing that makes this easier on Ebola and harder on say the flu though is... Ebola doesn't stay latent in cells [19:16]
