i have a hearing with my previous landlords on nov 4th, about me suing them. i need to update the new evidence, serve it and file it. i'm asking for upwards of $20,000 in damages for smoking and illegal entry. the new evidence includes drug tests and also the key i found in my mailbox, here. i don't know if they'll let me file it or not, but it demonstrates the point - somebody has been getting in my apartment, and somebody has been drugging me.
my appeals of their eviction order are now scheduled to go forward in the spring. i'm asking for a reversal of the costs orders and damages relating to the wrongful eviction, including the costs of staying in a hotel. that's going to be another $5,000-$10,000.
they got their house. fine. but the court should order them to pay me for it.
what am i going to do with all of this money? i have an asset limit of $40,000 on odsp, and need to be careful i'm not shooting myself in the foot, but a $20,000 downpayment would be enough to buy a $150,000-200,000 house, which exist in windsor, and which will reduce my rent/mortgage payments to well under $1000, which is the cost of the new lease. these are small bungalows or two story houses, mostly downtown. i don't need a big fancy house; i'm concerned about minimizing labour, not about maximizing wealth. this is a minimization problem for me, not a maximization problem. i have to live in capitalism, but i don't want to participate in it. further, i'll get that back when i turn 65, and no longer have an asset limit.
the reality is that nobody wants these houses, at this point. they're too expensive to rent. the bourgeois don't want them, and the students and poor can't afford them. that's the underside of capitalism i moved here to take advantage of, and which trudeau's immigration policies had taken away from me, by opening up a market for things nobody else wants.
that could work itself out by the summer, if all goes according to plan.
if i have this money and i move in the summer, it will be my last move. i'm not interested in climbing ladders. i don't care about the neighbours. this will ensure that nobody can take the house away from me again, and ensure nobody can move disgusting losers that do drugs into it. it's the end of this process.
i'll have to determine in the end if i can afford to stay there past the age of 65 on government retirement pensions, or if it is more logical to sell the house and move into a house for retirees, which have reduced rents.
so, that's the plan.
