Dear 2210, I love you but...

DJLX · 05-29-2008, 10:31 AM

you got to go. I need the money for my daughters' college and to reduce debt so I'll be cutting with a small cheap mower. You have done great things with your little diesel and tooth-bar. Roto-tilling, mowing, hauling wood, pulling sheds and changing the landscape. You always start and you never falter. Your ride with the X series seat and suspension is great. The custom made 3 point trailer hitch is a delight to use.
Every time you sit out front with a 'for sale' sign people flock to see you but the perfect person has yet to show.
Yes, I will miss you but may you bless you're next owner. That's why i put you on the classified

Thats sad.

I personally would have your daughter get a very low interest loan for her university.

DJLX,

If you bought that 2210 right off the bat, you could have paid for your daughter's college with the differrence!

Just kidding. Sad to hear the 2210 has to go. Best wishes.

that is what we did, but it was a joint thing and so the just graduate and us are payng it off now. Allowed me to get the tractors too!

Yes she will have to get loans as I cannot pay for all of it. It's a shame that college is so expensive today. She will have probably 50k debt by the time she graduates.
I will miss the loader the most as it's wheel barrow function sure makes my life easier.
But I haven't sold it yet so probably have to reduce price. I was thinking of Ebay...

JDFAN...You're right about that!!

DJLX,

I heard an interview of the author of this book on a Boston radio station and subsequently have recommended it to several friends. All have said it was worthwhile and helpful. Maybe it would help you too.

DJLX I'm sorry to hear about your loss. I have a son 16 and trying to figure every angle possible to send him short of selling my 2305.

just wait till you fill out the FAFSA paperwork and they teill you you're supposed to be able to contribute $18k per year towards your kid's college...thank goodness we had the good sense to start savings for each of them from the get go.

Remember, when you are hypnotyzing them, say Junior college first, then Major College! That way you can get another attachment before your wallet starts making that sucking sound! LOL!

Awwwwweeee!!! Thats sooo sad.

Have you ever heard of OSAP that helps pay the tuition??? You can pay that loan back as much or as little as you want at a time paying back that loan. It works good too. Try scholarships or whatever you can get to help pay that tuition fee. I was like totally bummed when I found out how much it would cost. So I applied for OSAP. Thats in Ontario. I am sure that they have many oppertunities like that for your daughter that could help you.
