My advice is a sword duel in old Europe traditional way, you vs landlord

would it be weird if i say I thought you would be given a house when you turn 18?

If it’s legal, you should carry around a tomato at all times and throw it at the landlord when you get the chance.

If the above is not legal, you should “accidentally” spill something all over the landlord.

Interesting, please post updates.

I think you should slip an image of Mao into his letter slot. Remind him it's not a natural law that his parasite class can continue exploting the working people forever.

@goralgn: who should give/pay for the house? why should it be a house and not a condo or flat? where should it be located? how big? what dispositions? ... overall I expect that's all up to you. Your parents/family may support you somehow.. if they can. A state/municipality/society/kibuc... may support you somehow... in case there are things set up such way. In both cases, you expect others take care of you. Ask yourself if that's right / really needed.

Who's gonna take care of me? I don't have a job and would appreciate any support. Is there any good soul? :)
I can't find a job because I'm always tired and have a sleeping disability.

I'm a little late to the party but this is hilarious. At the same time, I'm really sorry that you have to go through this Farah, what a terrible situation.

You're a little late to everything, cuz you're a turtle. We're not surprised.

Best of luck, Farah. Among other things, this story makes me despair for humanity.

oof.....

Oof also

Let's add another oof

So, time for an update. This has little to do with me, but more with the landlord. There's a few funny and sad stories here, so I thought I'd share them.

1) My ex-landlord scammed another tenant and succeeded
My neighbor, who was very helpful with providing me data from other apartments to prove my landlord's shenanigans with the gas/water/electricity, lost his job due to Covid. After he went through his savings, he wasn't able to pay rent anymore. Luckily, he got a new job and he was able to make a deal with the landlord: he starts paying rent again and he pays €200,- extra per month to get rid of his debt of €1640,-. Now, that should've been the end of it. Unfortunately, the landlord started disagreeing with the height of the debt. According to him, it's around €2850,-. (Probably a coincidence, but this is an increase of €1210,-, almost exactly the amount of money he wants from me). Anyways, my neighbor paid it all before realizing it was way too high of a number. He has since tried to contact them, but they've ignored him every step of the way.

2) My ex-landlord scammed another landlord and failed
The entrance to our, and a bunch of other houses, is through an alleyway. My landlord made it a goal to own every single house connected to that alleyway, so he could build there. Now, there's a very old property there, and the person who owns it refused to sell it to him, as he would give up his rights to that alleyway, which serves as a parking space for bikes for a company he owes.
My landlord had a genius plan to counter this. He called the municipality and bluffed his way through it. He claimed he was the owner of this property. Now, all the changes in ownership of historical properties (like this one) are announced in a paper. The actual owner read there that his property had been taken over. However, he had no idea about this. He visited it and found it was blocked off. His door was taken out and a big wooden plate was nailed in front of where the door was. He was extremely angry, so he visited all the tenants that live near that alleyway, and found out everyone thought it was our landlord's property. He is suing my landlord.

3) My lawyer had some great news
I contacted her and told her I was thinking that my landlord and the debt-collecting agency weren't going to sue me anymore, as it's been 18 days over the deadline for my payment and I haven't heard anything. I also notified my landlord that if he'd sue me, I'd gladly go to court and show how he's committing fraud to a judge. She agreed with me and said that if I wanted to just wait it out, I could do so without any further cost. She's basically given me a freebie.

That's a doozie

That's great

This landlord guy sounds like he is a skidmark on the fabric of society

Hmm, he's a landlord. He already has money. Still, he's scamming people who know his full name. That's pretty dumb of his. Because one day he may scam the wrong person who will beat the shit out of him.

I hope it happens one day. It's really dumb to anger people who can find you and theoretically get revenge on you.

Or maybe he chooses his victims carefully and knows Farah is not a threat to him. However, wealthy people generally have more to lose. I hope he meets someone like me, who has nothing to lose. No mercy.

Alright Bryan Mills.

Is it finally time for a 2nd Rent War?

This is the most interesting topic I've seen so far on WZ. I've spent the last hour of reading the thread
