SWEQUITY

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"SWEQUITY" Sweat Equity

Yesterday afternoon, October 25, 2008, I was in serious meeting with a few regular guys discussing the pros & cons of buying foreclosed properties and properties that need upgrades and improvements. After some thoughtful back and forth a profundity was uttered, and a new word, "SWEQUITY" was born. This may not sound like a major achievement, but imagine the savings in syllables over a few millennia. Sweat equity, although a fine series of words, is now unnecessary.

This utterance will go down in history, attributable to EARL BITTINGER, of Swatara Township, Harrisburg, PA. OK, to be perfectly honest we were at a local watering hole, Reliance Hose Company, "THE HOSER", in Rutherford, at 67th & Derry Street. Here and other places like it, a good bit of common sense, Joe6Pack discussions take place on a daily basis. But this was no ordinary day, history was made! This novel and remarkably descriptive word was witnessed by "THE CRABMAN", (CRABBY), RICHARD OYLER, also of Swatara Township, who will, I'm certain be willing to take a lie detector to affirm the authentication as to Earl's remarkable, new term, and myself, SCOTT J. FONNER, Realtor, RE/MAX REALTY ASSOCIATES, INC., Camp Hill, PA. I wonder if those drinks are tax deductable?

Now there may be some who will question the origin of this new word, SWEQUITY, but you can check Wikipedia, the final source of all that is good and right, and there you will find the proof. Sorry too late for you of slothful action. Entered on Sunday, October 26, 2008. Refer to bottom of page.

SWEQUITY

swe - kwity: NOUN (I would have entered the e with line above it, but didn't know how)
•1. exertion of physical power: It will take great deal of SWEQUITY to make the investment worth it.

•2. an earnest or strenuous attempt: A good deal of SWEQUITY will be necessary to keep to the schedule and stay on budget.

•3. something done by exertion or hard work: I thought it would be easy, but it required a lot of SWEQUITY.

•4. the amount of exertion expended for a specified purpose: the SWEQUITY expended on the remodeling of the home to make a profit was overwhelming.

Origin: 2008 (EARL BITTINGER), USA, Pennsylvania, Harrisburg, Swatara Township, Rutherford, Reliance Hose Club, 67th & Derry Street, middle bar stool @ 2:30 PM+/-, Saturday, October 25, 2008. Earl was drinking a Coors Light. Witnessed by SCOTT J. FONNER, Yuengling Lager, author, and RICHARD OYLER, THE CRABMAN, (CRABBY), Coors Light. Author can not verify what EARL & CRABBY were drinking, but believes it to be true, but is certain he was drinking YUENGLING LAGER, America's Finest Beer.

Derivative of Sweat Equity = SWEQUITY
