Greetings!
This thread brings back interesting memories...
I had a friend who was in charge of selling 36 new condo's, they were all vacant, so he asked me if I could park there to ward off the vandal's they were having trouble with.
So I said sure, and he got me a couple of magnetic security signs for my van, which I still have.
So even though I didn't own a condo there, I was kind of the longest resident there. Once all 36 condo's were sold, they had their first HOA meeting, and they voted me in as president when I wasn't even there! The new VP informed me the next day, and was shocked to learn that I didn't actually own a condo there.
I declined the position, but today, 20+ years later, whenever I'm in Spokane, I have a great free parking place for as long as I want to stay. Sometimes good deeds do pay off!
Cheers!
