Good info. I'll have to see what my company does exactly.

Here's a question: my company doesn't provide the matching until the following year. So it's just 1 payment instead of after each paycheck. Is this normal?

A bunch of dvds, Macbook charger because I broke my current one, new furry (synthetic) slippers because it's getting cold out, new texting gloves (see slippers). Pretty tame, though. Didn't spend more than $100.

Pretty much this. I breathe through hiccups so I only have one or two and then no more.

This sucks. Expect to pay more for less. There’s a rreason why I no longer use logmein.

Are those dynex batteries good to put in my emergency survival pack? I’m in LA and I just realized that I need to prepare for the “big one” now and not “later.”

Apparently, I lie all the time.

Which umbrella?

Mr. Wayans, have several seats in the empty theaters where none of your movies are playing.

I see Kinja’s layout has changed again. Must be Tuesday.

I usually sit on something for 6 months to a year before buying. If I know I still want it after that much time, I’ll get it but I always look for a discount (which means it could take longer — e.g., it took me 5 years to buy something I wanted at the price point I wanted but I got it a month ago, finally).

Had to uninstall. It kept freezing on my phone.

Who is this person that’s traveling?

Sounds like a better idea. I would imagine the button would be pretty loose if you use a toothpick.

Is “college degree” a skill?

I just write down key concepts and force myself to remember the rest, otherwise, I'll rely too much on notes and not on my own memory.

This is true for any forgiven debt.

Same here. I was right out of college and I had an “interview” in this conference room with a bunch of other kids. We were going to “learn how to sell knives door - to - door!” It would be awesome! We’d have so much money!

I pay every bill by hand, albeit through online bill pay. I’d prefer to be in complete control of every dollar that I spend.
