Alright . I get your point . You ' re right on the AD end . And you ' re right on the competing priorities end at the moment . I ' ve still got an idea of what I ' m thinking , but it ' s not coherent at the moment so fuck it . It ' s not worth it and you already know what I ' d be telling you . <| sep |> What ' s that ? I ' m sorry I can ' t hear you over the DIVISION LEADING Detroit Lions and their 7 fourth quarter comebacks . <| sep |> AND I AS WELL , THANKS <| sep |> 1 key for loopers <| sep |> This is how we did it when my kids were small . We were moving for my husbands job . He left , started the job and looked for a house for us . He was able to stay with friends in the new city , but maybe your wife can find a room for rent or something inexpensive . I stayed behind , packed everything up and arranged for our house to be listedrented . We ended up doing a lease with option to buy on it but that was that particular market at that time . This also allowed the kids to finish the school year . We decided to rent for a while because we weren ' t entirely sure we ' d want to stay in the new place and were unfamiliar with the new city . That is another reason why we leased our house rather than just selling . The rent payments covered the mortgage , but we weren ' t making money off of it , which was fine . We ended up staying so we bought a house about a year later , sold ours and that was that . Edit To add that we also lived paycheck to paycheck , but we managed to do this without going into debt or having a financial crisis . Hell living paycheck to paycheck was about all we could do with five small kids . They are grown now and I love all the money I have in the bank We did manage to save enough for the actual move . to pay for the UHaul I drove it out and a friend followed me in my van with the kids . I then paid to fly her home . , gas , hotels , etc . The company will pay all that for you so that helps .
