Yup. Having this arguement with my husband right now, who is off-and-on looking for opportunities.

The key for me, that most people my age even miss. Is that crappy jobs are needed to learn the SKILLS and disciplines needed for better jobs. Everyone goes to college with a dream goal job, thinking that as soon as they get "that piece of paper" they will magically have the pay and desires of their heart, and all the…

Are you the main provider for your family? I tend to agree with what you said, it does sound really nice, but most of us don't have the luxury to just quit because "our spirit is being broken". Dreams and dignity don't pay the bills. It's all good if you don't need the money, but if you do, there aren't many options.

I read glassdoor reviews of the company I work for. Most of them trash the company worse than I ever could. Misery loves company so

All I could think of:

One way I judge is by the quality of the roads in the neighborhood - if the road looks like a faded, dirty spiderweb from years of tarred cracks and repeatedly-filled potholes, the city doesn't like that area. I find neighborhoods that get repaved routinely tend to be better, probably due to a combination of…

I'm in a similar situation, and I feel like I have a good opinion here.

This is my preferred method of contact because not only can I interact with a person in real-time, I can usually email a copy of the conversation to myself so I have a record in case the charges are different for whatever reason.

Blue Nile has some awesome deals, but don't overlook what small stores can do for you. We went to a family-owned store and got a great deal on our rings. At a larger chain, it would have cost way more, and the selection wouldn't have been as nice.

AnnualCreditReport.com, as you mentioned. However, instead of going there once a year and getting 3 (probably) identical reports, go there and just get 1 report from one of the agencies. Go back in 4 months and get 1 report from either of the other 2. Finally, 4 months later, go back and get the 3rd. Now, 4 months…

Hey, for us Canadians, I just got an email from Target saying that they're working on getting something similar for us.

Well, when you sign up at the Target site, you're just giving them a name and email address. They send you an activation code to sign up at the ProtectMyID site, which belongs to Experian. So, you're not giving it to Target directly in this case.

I enjoy the irony of there needing to be a Snopes page about the emails, since the emails have many of the hallmarks of a classic phishing scam.

I also maintain a "will fix your computer if you're the fruit of my loins, if I'm the fruit of your loins, if we're the fruit of common loins, or if our loins have fruited together" rule.

I have found that I can also be satisfied by just doing the research. I can suddenly be convinced that I really need a new tv. But which one? What tv is the best, considering price, size, features, and quality? I'll spend hours and hours researching the "best" tv, and finally, once I make a decision, I can put it on…

Brake midway through a turn.

Oh, by all means evaluate each decision at the time of making it. But don't sit down afterwards (e.g. in a coffee shop) and analyze all of the past decisions and drive yourself crazy.

While I don't like spending too much, I have to agree. If you get too worked up on choosing the most cost efficient option ever for everything, every day, you probably won't have a good time. I think there should be a balance, that's how I do it at least. There are things that I believe are worth spending on, and…

Pointless article. It's no wonder people get neurotic and can't make decisions, when people over-analyze all the decisions it took to be at that place at that time doing the things you're doing.

If he does that, cut his fucking balls off, put them in one of his socks, and whomp him in the head repeatedly until he gets the goddamn message.
