I pay over $2000/month after taxes towards loans. I make more than 75000 so I can’t deduct any on my income taxes. I live in Chicago where stuff costs money. I picked a career in health(not MD) where I can make good money and work extra if I want. I work 60 hours a week. Working the extra 20 hours a week pretty much

I’ve noticed a lot more from friends my age(29) that have high debt(I have $200k of 250 originally)...is that we kind of understand that we are fucked, and anything to help that would be nice...BUT...we would like to see a change to the whole system(maybe pay 3-4% more in taxes) to ensure free tuition for our kids or

I work in a clinic and this drives me crazy all the time. A 16 year old is technically a child...yes, I get it. But when we have them fill out questionnaires that ask how they feel about something or how it affects them, I always hate when the mom rips it out of their hands and fills it out. Then you get the Nth

schlafly Christmas. so good.

Love that show. We watch, and rewatch....and sometimes have rewatched again while waiting for the 3rd season to come out(ungodly long wait). They are a bit too super-religious for me, but that’s Texas...I’d really enjoy their company if we never discussed social issues.

I have this problem with my future In-laws. It’s a big italian family and I’m getting married to the oldest daughter. Her mom and I don’t get along-I’m 30, she’s always been a queen B to her Kids, I don’t take well to being treated like im 12, and she is a teacher for 1st graders. I come from a smallish family and we

I’m almost 30 years old and I’ve never heard the term “chucklefucks”. I’m gonna start calling people chucklefuckers. This is great news!

As a Cardinals fan since i was 5, who now lives in Chicago a mile from Wrigley and is engaged to a Cubs fan....this is great. I will always be a Cards fan, but the next decade should teach the rest of the fanbase some goddamn humility. Plus Chicago is Awesome when the Cubs are winning.

Last year was the first Thanksgiving at my Fiance’s parent’s house I had been too. Her dad drank steadily all day, but around 3pm he went to the neighbor’s house(I went with) and he proceeded to get absolutely shit hammered on Armagnac. He fell down the stairs leaving, had to be restrained from the very hot grill(he

I think it all just depends on where you work, what kind of work you do, and what kind of city/commute you work in.

The cardinals aren’t exactly mashers like the cubs.

yeah It was gusting 30-35 with sustained 20. schwarber’s doesn’t go out normally. Rizzo’s lands about 5th row normally. Did anybody see that lazy popup to RF that was caught at the warning track? Also, the Cards players aren’t really known for mashing. These cubs are strikeout or homer, and against shitty Cardinals

What about Spanish/Arabic/Chinese speakers learning English?

Wishing I lived in MN right now as I plan our wedding. $30! More like $150/person in Chicago

So with the backdoor IRA, am I allowed to have a 401k with my work? I have read so many articles about the backdoor IRA and it just confuses the hell out of me.

Yes. My Italian future MIL takes it to the extreme.

Weren’t they just kind of ragging on her because she showed up for the Talent portion and just talked about how she treats patients. Other people are doing “talents” for the “talent show”. WTF is that about.
