You do NOT want the owner of the house to pay for it; then the inspector will seek to do what they want (e.g. say it's fine) rather than what you as the buyer want (e.g. see if anything is actually wrong).

Jake Bernstein's Secrecy World has been sitting on my to-be-read list for quite some time now; it's specifically about the Panama Papers and what they tell us about the world of global finance.

Yeah I only ever had one gym membership, which I "cancelled" by ditching the bank account the debit card I gave them was tied to. So they called me up and said, hey, your card was declined, so you need to give us another card number. And I said, oh really? Because I think I'm going to cancel my membership right now. And she said, no, you can't do that, you have to go through our process for that. And I said, oh yeah? And what leverage do you have to make me do that, exactly? And then I hung up on her.

Didn't read much of this, but saw someone quoting the bit about DotA Allstars. Just wanted to point out that DotA Allstars was loaded onto 10 PCs at Blizzcon 1 in 2005. Source: was there, played some DotA
