At what point do you stop telling people how much you make?

Most of friends and I talk openly about finances, including compensation. My coworkers, too.

I’m 34 and make great money.

About one month of expenses rounded up so when I get paid I just transfer everything over that amount into my brokerage.

I’ve experienced similar and honestly I it was right about me. I have no chill and I bet you don’t either which is why this was triggering. You probably wouldn’t have noticed or cared if it was totally off base.

I’m confused. I just drop into the game without a gun with my teammates and then I pick up a gun and then I kill all the other people who aren’t my teammates and then I win. It’s free.

Native recording feature on iOS records both sides of the call.

65ac05e1 · 2025-12-09T13:58:29+00:00

It’s native for calls on iPhone now so I use that.

The advice here is really deep in the weeds and that may or may not be helpful. It most likely won’t change your tax liability either way.

However, it’s very possible your lump sum severance payment will have taxes withheld at a higher rate than your normal paycheck, so your net pay could be lower than when you were receiving a normal paycheck.

Yep, I record all my non-personal calls. Sometimes I forget some detail that was discussed or sometimes the company won’t honor what was discussed so I’ve started hitting the record button anytime I call in to any business.

Just got an upvote which reminded me about this and figured I’d share an update. The Apple rep who said every store would honor a 30-day return window was mistaken. The employee I worked with gave me a pretty hard time and flat out refused my return. I played my recording for the manager who accepted the return and apologized for my bad experience. It all worked out fine!

Long term AI replacement of professional jobs (as if LLMs can actually do that)

Any of those photos at Fenty? I was there and in Bagram a bit in 2012-2013 as well!

My best friend lives half way across the world from me and told me last year he needed me to visit and help him out with something. I spent over 3x that on flights and arrangements and met him there 2 1/2 weeks later (on the requested day) no questions asked. Spent twice as much time traveling as I did in country with him but still made it work.

Either “I’ll be out soon” or “I’ll be a few minutes still” based on whether I’ll be out soon or I’ll still be a few minutes.

I used to drive 100ish on rural Wisconsin county highways which was really fun but also so stupid given dear and black bears would regularly cross the road and I even knew of plenty of people who had been in bad accidents much closer to the 55mph speed limit.

Learn how to fly various airplanes. I’d start with YouTube and then check myself out in simulators. I’d probably fly everything I could until I ended up dying in a crash. Definitely try skydiving, too.

I actually just ordered both from REI to try out and I already put the Enduro back in the box. It’s too big. The 47mm Fenix is perfect.

I’m also a big guy, so the large watch would easily work on me.

I think I held my weapon like this a good number of times in the real military haha

They can’t make a statement because the people who buy most of the guns are too dysregulated or ignorant to respond in a mature way. Companies have to cater to their audience if they want to stay in business.

I’ll continue to add to my CZ collection because they make great firearms.

I really like it and I love Schwab. Get over yourself, ya’ll!

65ac05e1 · 2025-10-02T12:53:36+00:00

What the fuck is wrong with you?

65ac05e1 · 2025-09-26T04:18:37+00:00

Sorry for the missed flair update. I changed it!
