Now that he knows her name it's only a matter of time until he has a similar moment to Marigold's in the coffee shop...

The "Foul enchantress..." line is the funniest thing in this whole arc -- Dale is aware of his danger of becoming a monitor-burnt troglodite. (Also, this has to be the first time in her life [or would that be in her uptime? ] that anyone has called May an enchantress of any sort.)

Dale does immersive and difficulty mods and Marigold does NSFW meme mods.

On the one hand: Dale, you handsome dork! On the other: I don’t mind losing the immersion by learning their name or seeing how they look since it’s like I know it’s a performance but simultaneously recognize the danger in that info being known since some people are… stupid, to be polite

Aurelia has that ~$1.5 million, 5 bathrooms & 6 bedroom house. Pretty sure of that. https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/56-56-Crescent-St-60-Northampton-MA-01060/2062322300_zpid/

Did they hire AI Jeff Goldblum to hawk their properties?

Agreed complicated feels. I like not being locked into a mortgage, but the inability to improve the space I live is not fun. That and the damn programming that makes me feel like some kind of failure for renting.
CaseyAEC
No, hedge-finder AI bastards did it.

Presumably in the QC Universe, Hedge-funder Bastards have not bought up all the property and driven housing prices to incomprehensible levels...

Actually, this one isn't too bad - https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/39-Middle-St-Northampton-MA-01062/57021257_zpid/

May's thought processes on point.

From an investment perspective, now is not the time to buy a house. Soon... but not yet.

So which one of the cast is going to start a business of providing temporary fake houses? You know, like the fake girl/boyfriend services for when your parents visit and you are hiding that you are either a loser or LGBT or something.

All this talk of mortgages worries me because I assume that being a successful streamer is like being a successful rock star. You can't assume you will be making that big money forever, your popularity could fade at any time. So you don't want to lock in fixed expenses. tl,dr; Don't buy a house with a mortgage, save up until you can buy for cash.

At least in my area mortgages are much cheaper than rent if you can get a down payment. But rent around here is INSANE. However, with what Marbear is bringing in, they may be able to get something for cash.
Gary Walker
Home ownership is something I have complicated feels about. I HATED having a mortgage.
Matt Pedone
Does Skyrim exist in QC? Because Dale would totally be a Skyrim modder.
Dylan T
Don't say "my immersion" Dale, you sound like a Skyrim modder. Sincerely, A Skyrim Modder.
