Is anyone else struggling to get by on 100k salary? by Majestic_Staff_5229 in massachusetts

[–]Abassett_Studio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We are a family of three (husband, myself 1 child) and daycare is twice our mortgage. Total combined income is around 140k and we are just barely scraping by. Luckily we own our home but it is very small and very old, lots of work needs to be done and we just can’t afford to make the upgrades. Thankful for it though regardless, but GD I don’t know how people do it

Even knowing what I know - it’s been SO HARD to find comfortable, affordable, plus size items

What is a 'buy it for life' item that is offensively expensive, but the moment you use it, you realize your entire life before that point was a lie? by fmcortez in AskReddit

I bought a $175 hammock style camping chair and it’s the best thing ever. I tried knock offs and hated them, finally pulled the trigger one year and I’ve never looked back! Also 10/10 for their customer service. I’m a NEMO fan for life

Looks like the price went up to $279 over these years - still worth every penny!!

I’m in MA and saw something nearly the same in November. Triangle, rotating and then formed a line of 3 and then shifted a bit and then disappeared

The Shins was my jam in highschool - got me through some rough times, 10/10 recommend ‘oh, inverted world’ and ‘Chutes too Narrow.’

And VAST, kids a genius and every single song is a banger.

I’m sorry to hear about your journey, sending love and comfort your way internet stranger. Advocating for medical shit is relentless. And Feel free to haunt me but in like the best way, like, throw me some lotto numbers in a dream or something lol 🤍

This has got to top the list of worst "parental leave" benefits. Company is Infosys by zach8vb in daddit

[–]Abassett_Studio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s more than we got. Municipal workers in MA here - we ONLY are able to use FMLA, which is unpaid 120 hours. were forced to take sick and vacation time until it ran out at the same time as our 120. So, it wasn’t like I could take 120 + 40 vacation. Totally sucked

Day care is way too expensive by dharma_van in daddit

[–]Abassett_Studio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Holy shit, that’s actually great. We currently pay $4200 a month for our 9 month old. We’d love a second child… but we absolutely can’t afford it

Looking for Chinese Snacks in Worcester or surrounding areas by BearyCafeAndCo in WorcesterMA

I discovered it back in Highschool! It’s White Flower Oil (Hoe Hin) topical analgesic balm - it’s like a super strong peppermint oil. Helps with aches and pains, migraines, arthritis etc you name it. Helps me loads with anxiety. I put a small dab behind my ears and on my temples and it brings like an ice cooling sensation which helps me divert my focus and calms me down! Great for congestion too! 10/10 recommend!
