how much does it cost to buy a truck and trailer? these folks are from the city they own no transportation.and how do they load the truck..is it all done by hand...how long would it take to load 45 tons of flag stone stone by hand ?You loaded 45 tons by hand in one day????..Is flag stone found in every major city other then jackson hole.???.
Jackson Hole and the flagstone were just an example :roll:, lots of people nowadays have champagne tastes on a beer diet, Jigs is right, there are a lots of ways to cut corners, but people don't want to give up what they deem "necessities"
Christine Hadley, a 53-year-old registered nurse from Reading, Pa., says she used to be "a clotheshorse," splurging on pricey Dooney & Bourke handbags. But her live-in boyfriend left last year, and she has had trouble finding a job. Piles of unpaid bills forced her to sell more than 80 items, including the handbags, which went for more than $1,000 on a site called AuctionPal.com. Now, except for some artwork and threadbare furniture, her house is looking sparse.
"I need the money for essentials — to pay my bills and to eat," Hadley said.
Gosh hasn't there been a shortage of nurses for years now??? maybe she should have paid her bills instead of buying purses, and what does her boyfriend moving away have to do with anything?
When I moved down here, I worked at 3 jobs in town, plus helped out with the cows when I got home, my kids also wear $15 jeans vs. $40 and second hand stores are wonderful for buying brand name designer clothes at a fracion of the cost. There are lots of jobs around, but the key is you have to be willing to work at whatever, whenever. Any expense you have with looking for or relocating for a job thats more than 150 miles away from your present location is tax deductible
so if the price of beef drops and the cost of shipping rises and you cannot make your bills......are you prepared to leave it all for a 1 bed room walk up in jackson hole?...Why not have more outrage over the rising cost of living ,gas prices and high pharmaceutical costs...how would you feel if your child had to go without the daily medicines they may need?...
just to ride a bus back and fourth to work in the city is 7 bucks a day..if your in the suburbs its 3.50 more each way so that is 14.00 a day...now add babysitting costs,food,clothing,shelter and heat.......no cable no computer...Those 3 jobs would not be enough...
Transits cost go up cause of gas prices,food prices rise cause of gas prices ...even if people lived above thier means,after time those items are sold or pawned and they are forced to leave their home..
I am not sure how many of you live in a city,but bad things are gonna happen inside these city's soon.....once the summer heat hits it will boil over in some city's....I guess you can do one of two things,ask more of your goverment to get the country back on track,or print up more flyers and pass them out telling everyone how much work is available in Jackson hole...
