"Generous Human Being"
Carl - I want to express my deep thanks for your time and consulting expertise this morning on options with the Wilmington property. You are an extraordinary professional, as well as generous human being. You have great vision about what can be done with the property . . . and your careful examination of my needs/desires meant a lot to me. In other words, our conversation caused me to think about the future and what I want out of life on many dimensions. So - thanks for the real estate expertise, the construction and design expertise, and the good counsel on what life is about in the aftermath of a divorce.

Financing Your Home >Credit Card Mania
Most people know that a checkered credit history can disqualify you for a home loan, and maxed-out credit cards can do the same thing. But what most people don't know is that merely having a large number of credit cards, even with low balances and a history of timely payments, can disqualify you for a home mortgage loan just as quickly.
According to credit experts, having a number of credit cards can be just as detrimental to the granting of further credit as a history of late payments. Lenders look at it this way: If you have ten credit cards, each with a limit of $5,000, that means you have the potential to run up $50,000 in debt virtually any time you choose. That mere possibility makes you a greater risk, from their point of view.
The moral of the story? If you are planning to apply for a home loan in the future, keep only those credit cards you actually need to use and cancel the others.
