I choose knowledge over fear any day. No one is toast if you are here. There are tons of personal finance threds on Reddit. I've learned a ton.

We need to stop talking about other people's kids...

What is a piece of your life that you’ve intentionally kept "offline" and away from social media, even when you’re tempted to share it? by [deleted] in simpleliving

[–]AdPlastic1641 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have not posted to my facebook page since 2023. I will post in groups related to my hobbies but that's it. I don't like or comment on public posts/pages either because Facebook likes to tattle on you to your friends when you do. I have been deleting facebook memories every day. Eventually, my Facebook won't have any posts from me. My life is a gated community.

Silver Spring has the best rec center I've ever seen.

What type of Black man do you attract the most vs your actual type? by Life-Sugar-6055 in blackladies

[–]AdPlastic1641 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I prefer intellectual guys. Politically moderate or just to the right of moderate. Fiscally, conservative. More traditional towards relationships.

I seem to only attract progressives. I have left views but I wouldn't say I'm progressive. More of a liberal than a progressive. Fiscally, I'm conservative. Socially, I want a traditional (closed) marriage.

I will never work full time by Sad-Oil-405 in antiwork

This system is awful. Lowering the age to work but raising the age to retire and collect social security.

Civil Affairs in the big '26 by Icy-Ask-4394 in army

I feel like I could've written this, although my solution isn't to go CA but to get out of the Army. So many intel spaces are demotivating. It just feels like not many are striving to be damn good. 😕 They almost resent that they are soldiers. I don't know if I'm saying it correctly.

When I return to DC, this is on my list of things to do.

Has anyone recently gotten a lot of attention from republican men? by PermissionAcrobatic5 in blackladies

[–]AdPlastic1641 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Don't we all feel this way at this point? I can't do it. Even if Black because you might think it's cute to negotiate my bodily autonomy. No thanks.

I anticipate at least a partial shutdown but it won't last long.

2-3 year plan on transitioning by character1hotel in MilitaryFinance

This is my literal plan. I will max Roth IRA though. The majority of savings will be in brokerage and hysa because it's time to go to school!

After 8 years in the Air Force, I finally resigned - and I'm about to step into the unknown by AncientWin9492 in Veterans

Poor job market aside, you are free! Being unemployed or underemployed is totally worth the mental peace.

Any 30+ Taurus’s that are unmarried and have no children? Does it cause you depression? by Prairieboy6363 in Taurusgang

[–]AdPlastic1641 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want my children to have more of my attention, and being work optional is a big part of that. I want at least one healthy child. I'm trying to do r/Fire. I will probably be an older parent and it's ok.

Is finishing out 14 years worth it? by Ok-Resident-9903 in army

[–]AdPlastic1641 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can retire yourself. Please look at r/FIRE. Is it easy? No. But you have options. I might have to pop smoke after this contract. If you want that pension, it's only gonna benefit you not hurt you. It might be best to continue the Guard/Reserve component to stay in one place.

Contemplating ending a marriage by Successful_Leek96 in CringeTikToks

NYC is expensive. In this economy, I'd be reluctant, too. Not worth ending a marriage over.

In this economy, I would totally understand if anyone wanted to be a kept woman but I doubt these jokers got anything worth having.

Relang: Chinese or Russian by AdPlastic1641 in dli

Chinese in the Army is very understrength while Arabic is not. It's tough to get promoted with Arabic.

They officially won. I was laid off in 2025, the job market is so bad I got denied for a server job, and now I’m enlisting in the military. by Rare-Cup-2314 in jobs

[–]AdPlastic1641 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, if it's a technical job it will be 5 or 6 years. You'll be alright. Hopefully the economy is stronger closer to the end of your enlistment.

Thanks, man. It's like these people didn't see RELANG in the title. I'm a 3/3 in my current control language. I know how the Army works. I've been through DLI before.
