Combining Gas & Electricity does sound like a bad idea.

The rates seems so cheap 3.8¢/kwh plus 2.50$/month. Is that right?

Most people do it over here. One supplier usually does work out cheaper.

I think it is rather common.

Yes, the last couple places I lived had them combined like that. Maybe more a western thing.

Same here in New York.

I meant the actual gas & electricity not the companies. Joke missed I guess.

Around here, gas is pretty rare.

I guess y'all are aware that the US now has the 2nd largest proven reserves of natural gas in the world, right?

An article made me think: how I would I go around trying to buy a cheapo house in the States from abroad?

I sure hope you didn't buy some book on the quick and easy way to make lots of money by flipping real estate. :wacko:

Even as a Hungarian, I think you could buy Detroit.

If you invested in Florida real estate in 1996 and sat on it, you certainly did not get burned.  In fact, anywhere before about 2002 would have been fine.  The ones who got burned were the ones still buying in the 2005-2007 range.
