access easement

Read a random definition: consolidated financial statement

A quick definition of access easement:

An access easement is a type of legal agreement that allows someone to travel across another person's land to get to a nearby location, like a road. It's a limited right to use or control the land for a specific purpose, like crossing it to get to a public road. The land that benefits from the easement is called the dominant estate, while the land burdened by the easement is called the servient estate. Unlike a lease or license, an easement may last forever, but it doesn't give the holder the right to possess, take from, improve, or sell the land.

A more thorough explanation:

An access easement is a legal right to use or control someone else's land for a specific purpose, such as crossing it to reach a public road. The land that benefits from the easement is called the dominant estate, while the land burdened by the easement is called the servient estate. Unlike a lease or license, an easement may last forever, but it does not give the holder the right to possess, take from, improve, or sell the land.

Examples of access easements include:

  • A right-of-way allowing someone to cross a neighbor's property to reach their own land
  • A driveway easement allowing multiple properties to share a common driveway
  • An easement allowing a utility company to access their equipment on someone else's land

These examples illustrate how an access easement can provide a legal right to use someone else's land for a specific purpose, without giving the holder ownership or possession of the land.

Right, that makes sense, but I assume if more people lived there it wouldn’t be sustainable for dividend payments to go out?

Alaska’s population used to be bigger and the dividend payment was also bigger. it all depends on the returns of the fund in a given year. It’s enshrined in the state constitution so it would be incredibly difficult to get rid of it even if it was $1
windyMagician
12:03
also, postsecondary education is a qualifying absence so i can still get my dividend even while in law school
Ahh I see. And so it applies to any resident even ones who are out of state at the moment?
windyMagician
12:05
you must maintain ties to the state, come back for at least 72 hours a year, have intent to return to Alaska, and not establish residency in any other state

and be on a qualifying absence. military and education is okay, being out of the state working is not
babycat
12:05
so if you went to a state school you wouldn’t establish residency there to be in state?

@KnowledgeableRitzyWasp: if FO taught me anything you mag dump
babycat
12:06
I was wondering about that too bc I would prefer to maintain my current residency
windyMagician
12:08
@babycat: correct. accepting in state tuition in another state is actually a really common and controversial reason that ppl get denied dividends

Being military I moved ALOT and would establish residency in the states that had no income tax or other tax benefits. I would imagine switching to instate tuition would save significant money

i maintained my FL residency but the only advantage is that i get reduced price theme park tickets
I think it depends. For a lot of the top schools, the diff between in state and out of state tuition is just a few grand
babycat

I have a non-financial interest in maintaining residency but might consider it if it’s a significant amount of money
LyricalLikeDragon
12:12
For a lot of schools I've seen it can be like 10k/year
LyricalLikeDragon
12:12
For me that's p significant
12:12
in the event drumpf does indeed 'drill baby drill' I would wager Windy will get a better dividend years following this one
BulbasaurNoLikeCardio
12:12
$30k in debt with interest is a fat chunk of change
@LyricalLikeDragon: oh yeah, that’s fair. I just meant for schools like UVA, Michigan, etc it’s literally like a 3k difference which considering it’d take a year to establish residency, doesn’t seem worth it

I honestly feel lucky to have my GI Bill, if I could I would adopt all of you so you can get a monthly stipend while in school too
Yeah, that is a pretty sweet fucking deal
BulbasaurNoLikeCardio
12:20
Because my Vet status with the VA, anyone I adopt before they turn 18 and becomes a dependent gets a 36 month GI bill to burns so my daughter will be getting pretty set up too
12:20
The GI bill stipend would make living in NYC suck a little less

That BAH has got to be high probably like $3kish a month
12:27
That's part of why I'm attracted to U Miami - good weather, my BAH will be like $3,400. It's just not W&L lol

12:27

[] starfishies
12:28

HopefullyInLawSchool

Basic Allowed Housing, it is a monthly stipend the GI Bill pays you to go to school full time and help with living.
12:28
The GI bill gives you a monthly housing allowance in addition to paying tuition lol
