I don’t typically have this problem at work functions - I’ve been to enough to know my limits. But what do you do if you... like everything?

I paid a huge real estate tax bill on my credit card. They charged me 2% processing fee - which offsets their costs of using the credit card. I got 2.62% cash back. Money in my pocket! Thanks dumb credit card reward system!

(a serious question)

More like, “here’s how to prepay for two games when you want one.”

Absolutely correct - I will put what I damn well please in my yard - you’re not an HOA telling me what I can and cannot have out there.

Amazing how Lifehacker is written by real estate agents and bankers today. What is going on over there?

House does not equal home ownership! I owned in a multi-unit for years, now I own in a nieghborhood with row houses, and effectively still share walls.

“Not buying a house if you can”

Thrilling Adventure Hour belongs on this list for being the precursor to Welcome to Nightvale and in some ways the grandfather of all podcast scripted fiction.

Unfortunately not every shipper offers text message notification - but also I am not constantly checking my text messages. If only there were a button, located near the door, that would immediately alert me to something needing my attention near the door. Imagine: someone could push the button and I would be alerted…

My wife and I both work from home and can pretty easily make it to the door - but the delivery guys have stopped pushing the doorbell, so it’s impossible to know when the packages are being delivered. I know they’re in a crazy rush due to Amazon’s requirements, but they are…

I married my best friend’s college-ex. I met her through him, they broke up, and *nearly a decade later* we got to together and eventually got married. Seems fine.

I am going to guess you live in a low cost of living area, have no kids, are single, and your healthcare is paid (or heavily subsidized) by your employer? Seems like a good candidate for FIRE.

Generally I agree, but there are obviously ways to treat your general expenses the way a business would by depreciating the cost of an automobile over its useful life. Or you know, get a lease. (or just use the lease number)

I think I figured it out. We need to compare someone who bought the bond on October 31st to someone who bought it on November 1. This is going to get tricky.

Your math works, but it means nothing. This isn't a critique of you, I'm just saying I have no idea what someone would be trying to do with that equation.

I know you’re just repeating what Smart Asset reported, but what kind of math is this?

I’m not a photographer, so I guess that excuse is out. (Edit- just saw your username, I am guessing you are a photographer!)

So basically, don’t have a smoothie or similar from any restaurant in the northeast for a few months.
