Somebody PLEASE teach these nurses some math!! (or at least give them a cal
2008-06-03 23:18:00 23,000 kroner x 0,0075% pay increase this year x 60,0% after tax= 100 kroner per month (approximately)or23,000 kroner/160 hours x 0.0075% pay increase this year x 60,0% after tax= 0.675 kr/hour (approximately)Yes, a little bit of math to start this blog entry - please forgive my occasionally rational thought process. The outcome of these little calculations is essentially the reason why nurses in Copenhagen went on strike, and remain on strike several futile weeks later.It's all about 100 kroner per month in salary (after tax) or .675 kroner an hour. To put this another way: if you were offered 149.33 kroner per hour for a job, but demanded 150 kroner, would you turn the job down!!???I'm not trying to be clever here, just a bit sensible!Of course, the nurses union possesses, how shall we phrase this delicately, a questionable level of competence. This opinion, admittedly, stems from the fact that the author's girlfriend was once a nurse, though she gave up that profession some ye...
Rent or buy? O.C.’s purchasing math improves
2008-06-03 21:01:00 Moody’s Economy.com has taken some of the guess work out of the eternal question, “Should I rent or buy?” Their answer is the rent/buy ratio which is determined by dividing the median price of a house by the cost of renting that house for a year. David Leonhardt at the New York Times — a longtime advocate of renting — became a convert to buying based on the ratio when he was reassigned to Washington, D.C. this year. The good news for Orange County is that the rent ratio in the first quarter was 22.2, down from a peak of 29.7. “Rent ratios going down mean houses are becoming more affordable to buy,” says Arnold Slesers, the Economy.com economist who crunched the numbers. The bad news is that Orange County is tied for sixth highest rent ratio among the top 46 metropolitan areas, which means things are still expensive here. For instance, the ratio in Leonhardt’s new metropolitan Washington, D.C. area is an even more affordable 16.8. ...
Down I Go - Tyrant (math hardcore, némi jazz és rengeteg rosszarc)
2008-06-03 00:37:00 myszpészRemélem sokan emlékeztek ezen angol formáció el?z? albumára, amin az emberiség történetének legnagyobb katasztrófáit énekelték meg elszánt és elszállt bárdokhoz h?en. Nos a srácok most sem adták be a derekukat, így ismét egy szokatlan koncepciójú lemezt adtak ki a kezük közül. A katasztrófák után ismét egy nem túl vidám téma fele orientálódtak, hiszen a rövid történelmünk legnagyobb diktátorainak és véreskez? uralkodóinak szellemét idézik meg egy-egy röpke számba s?rítve. A téma érdekes, a zene ?rült és kellemes, az este meleg és a bálnák planktont esznek. Szóval nem maradt más hátra, mint az el?re, töltsétek le és csodálkozzatok el azon, hogy amíg némely ember ilyen zenét játszik, addig más milliókat öletett meg és feleségeket fejeztetett le egy halomra. Szóval el?re a zsarnokcoreért, remélem a következ? albumon pornósztárok lesznek, vagy Uri Geller csakráit éneklik meg latin ábécé szerint sorrendben.

Arithmetic
2008-05-28 06:07:00 In an earlier math post, I wrote about Princess’ struggle with arithmetic, and how it was a pure pain to get through her homework. Sometime in the last few months, the light has dawned on her. Maybe it was the dreaded fractions. However it happened, something just clicked in her and she could see the patterns in numbers, how math fits together in a unified system. Since then, it’s become her favorite subject! Her friend respond with “Ew,” as you’d expect, but a kid’s favorite subject is usually the one they do well in. Before, math was incomprehensible, but at least she served as a counterexample of the Asian stereotype. Now she serves as a case study that Asians who are good at math are not always that way because their parents make them work at it all the time! But I’m glad she’s crossed that hurdle. Gothgrrl still has a hard time with arithmetic. Look Around You Cool Math: toys for mathematically-minded adu...

Why buyers, sellers (and Realtors®) should like math
2008-05-18 01:38:00 For most of us, math is something we only do when we have to - and all too often, not well. There's a very good reason we all need to be better at it, especially in these trying times. That reason is that there are huge benefits hidden in the math for buyers and sellers in some of our most active client categories. I'm talking about first time buyers, move-up sellers/buyers and relocating sellers/buyers. I'll use as an example a market where home prices have fallen 7% across the board from one year ago and to further simplify, I'll assume that there are no net proceeds from the sale (all too true) and no downpayment needed on the new home (I wish it were true). Seller has a home that would have fetched $350,000 one year ago. Studies show that the move-up buyers typically spend 50% more than the selling price of their previous home. That indicates a purchase price around $525,000. At 6% interest his principal & interest payment on a 30 year fi...

O.C. homes 20% too pricey, by this math
2008-04-28 20:50:00 My latest column for The Register says this about a O.C.-to-U.S. home-price ratio, or the “Orange premium” valuation method as I call it … Look at February’s pricing math from Realtors. You can buy three typical American single-family homes or acquire one Orange County house for the small money. The last time local homes were any cheaper, based on my valuation formula, was for 2003. Still, it’s not clearly a screaming time to buy. We are still above the average Orange County premium of 2.4 U.S. homes for the cost of a local one looking back a pricing trends back to 1982. One could surmise using this metric, that local homes are still 20 percent overpriced vs. average conditions. Plus, remember those two clear “buy signals” of the mid-1980s and mid-1990s? They came when the Orange premium showed an O.C. house costing less than two typical American homes. It would require a 50 percent adjustment – any combination of national improvement or...
