That’s incredibly young to have that net worth, good job.

That’s awesome! Keep it up. You are way ahead of where I was at your age. When I graduated college I took 3 years off from saving for retirement. Then I started saving the maximums. Honestly, the “compounding” didn’t feel like it started paying off until the last couple of years. Just over 1 million net worth. 39.…

What’s your point? I sense snark but maybe 20 years on the internet has jaded me. She’s also living in one of the costliest markets in the country so the fact that she has saved a decent amount and more than the average for her cohort isn’t any less impressive just because she likely works in a high paying field,…

YNAB is the best. I thought I was good with money but I got even BETTER after I started using it.

Businesses advertise to introduce you to new and better products. The idea behind tracking emails is then relevant marketing is directed to you. Real spam is when…

Yes! Props for how awesomely diverse this movie is.

Greetings other 559 friend! I’m so happy I’m not the only SJV Jezzie!

Interestingly, Clovis, CA—a suburb of Fresno, CA with 100,000 residents, has produced not one but TWO gay celebrities in recent years: Ryan Beatty and Chris Colfer.

I’ve just had a lot of dates turn out to be lemons (one lady spent the entire date talking about how her ex screwed her over). If a coffee date is going well, I have suggested getting dinner because there just happens to be this great dimsum place around the corner.

As a guy, it amazes me the shit some other guys say.
