  • Oh ok, I did not know that reputation of the site. I thought it was interesting that they mostly recommend Treasury bonds as cash reserve and I see a lot of discussion regarding that, due to inflation lately.

  • I think a little nudge is good but if they are not receptive to it, I don't bring it up again. Finance is very personal stuff and my some of friends/family get embarrassed/uncomfortable discussing that.

    also I think it's important to not be completely out of touch since most people in my circle don't have enough money to have a safe savings/emergency stash, let alone invest into retirement. I don't want to piss people off or make them despair talking about FIRE if I know they don't have good income leftover to begin with. That's just been my experience with it, curious how you guys think about it.

  • I got lucky, the laziest investing method turned out to be one of the better ones. I was originally looking at which stocks pay the most dividends so I can contribute with minimal effort, then learned about index funds, and which funds the most reliable, etc... that got me into FIRE.

  • Haha but seriously, please don't use workers as your personal therapists.

  • Well... I'd rather stay and keep the 25% for an "ok" job 😄. A dream job is so fagile, especially when an important team member leaves / management changes for the worse and changes the entire work dynamic.

  • All this inflation has me worried about not getting enough raise next year to cover the rising cost of groceries. Feeling anxious.

  • geez, the market sure took a tumble this week... though on the upside, the funds are at a good discount for buying 😎

  • The big blob of merged people was so disturbing, glad this was in a cartoon and not live action. That would have been extra horrifying!

  • Wow I hope you don't get caught because that would be serious, manipulating item prices without authorization. Maybe gas station management is more lenient but I personally wouldn't bet on it.

  • Dang you're almost there! I live in HCOL area so $2M. I'm 5% to the goal 😢.

  • Oh that's a cool trick. Thanks for the explanation 😀

  • I don't know what this is. Another thing to learn!

  • Lmao a bit dramatic writing a "love letter" to a game that's not released yet.

    I hope the game lives up to its hype... but knowing Bethesda, it will probably be buggy and janky before the modding community does the actual heavy lifting as usual.

  • Have you guys sold your I-bonds? I had it less than 5 years but thinking about moving it to HYSA.

  • I thought I saved up enough to buy a modest place for myself but looking at the prices.. I was so wrong. My landlord will be happy.

  • He makes his video editors do manual labor for his home, like painting his walls and moving home furnitures. He is not known to be a respectful guy.

  • Weird, I couldn't see last week's post until today.

  • I love that there is a cast iron community here 😆

  • Awesome!👌 👏 👍 just what I was waiting for since migration.
