mortgage insurance does suck, but it didn't ruin the economics for me, but I was lucky. When I bought with an FHA, if you got down to 20% by year 5, you could get rid of MIP. Now the rules are stupid, you are stuck with mortgage insu

many destroyers (including world war 2) have only forward main guns (usually 1 or 2). I can only speak from my experience playing naval ship games. Destroyers are very small but nimble ships. if you need to fire from aft guns, you alread
