Same. First thought “oh my god no, where I’m from and where I moved to are red!” and then I realized the colors are backwards.

depends on the kind of cheaper house, yeah. Foreclosed etc. you get that. I was just thinking smaller or in a worse neighborhood, people died in it, whatever.

“It can be used just like a 401k when you reach retirement and for medical expenses anytime before retirement.” OH! I did NOT know about the first half of that! I don’t think mine’s matched (unlike my 401k). Do you pay taxes on it if you use it on whatever after retirement? 

This method works best when you don’t get paid much. When you’re happier with your pay, it can be a bad justification to buy all kinds of crap you don’t need, and if you’re not a contractor, you probably can’t just be like “okay, I’ll work the extra 10 hours this week to make up for it”

True, but you have to also weigh that against paying PMI. 20% exactly is the ideal amount to put down on your house IMO. If you can’t afford that, moving fees, and some kind of emergency funds (most of your suggested 10k should be there I guess), it could be better to wait or to go with a cheaper house.

There are loopholes to those estimated tax penalties (eg if you made nothing or way less the previous year, you can pay very little forward), but then the April taxes are TERRIBLE. Made that mistake my first tax year as a freelancer! No penalty, but my taxes were $20k in April. It was definitely good to know about…

my hair literally takes hours to dry even with a hair dryer. There’s no such thing as a quick 5 minute shower for me! Your way works for people who have short hair and access to a shower, vs this way works for more people and is slightly less effective.

easier said than done

according to his clearly auto-generated closed captions, he said “what’s that long after getting my sled”
(and he has a nintendo sledge!)

when I bought my car (it’s paid off REALLY soon, yay!) I wanted to pay it in full. They literally didn’t let me. Couldn’t walk away easily either as they took my license at the very beginning... I was there literally all day, thanks Toyota. It worked out in the end. I got 0% for 3 years, I’m finishing paying it…

Woman in a tech field here, it’s still awful. The only way I “go to HR” is indirectly. A coworker making fun of me to other coworkers and I have written proof because the dunce accidentally sent it to me at one point? Nah. Getting cut out of projects and meetings? Tempting, but nah. Sexual harassment in text? …

no, my workplace bullies are like the high school ones. I work in an office in a decently high end job... the bullying is still more like hearing people make fun of you when they think you can’t hear them or accidental IM’s to you ABOUT you when they mean to send them to someone else

Probably minorities who are tenants, yeah

Nevermind, got it to work

Is it less buggy than the version of this for android TV? That worked really nicely for like a week... now (at least if it’s Netflix that I had on and abandoned) it starts loading through them all really quickly until either the TV freezes or the entire TV crashes

I don’t think many would lie about it, but it’s unlikely the HR interviewer is going to know what your potential team does for lunch. You have to wait until the team interview, realistically.

Maybe that’s my problem! High end IT field, glassdoors suggested my job was worth ~90k (decently higher most places, but it was the low end for the area the company is in). I was forced to name a number, so I went with that low end, 90k, thinking, hey, I’m young and have lots to learn even if I know more about a…
