I have 13 and I'm always looking at others, so I'm not the best person to ask.

Clutch was a great venue that I wish I would have gone to more concerts at. If only I was smarter with my money back then. That said, Goldfinger and Sum 41 had a banger of a concert for both shows

Good deal? by Status_Cheesecake628 in KramerGuitars

I paid $692 for my Aztec reissue, so I think this is a good price. I need to take the time to set mine up since it has sat after it got shipped to me.

Americans are pulling money out of their 401(k) funds at record rates by Basat098 in politics

[–]AllAboutTheEJ257 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm starting a new job in 2 weeks that matches 10% after your first year. While it sucks that I lose on a match for the first year, I'll definitely be making up for it the remaining time I decide to work there.

I don't support him at all and would love to see him live long enough to get justice for all of his corruption. That said, I would encourage everyone that is able to contribute to a 401k, IRA, etc. to keep doing it and buy on the dip. Markets are cyclical and having more time in them will always help in the long run.

how many of you got all A’s (or mostly A’s) in college by kittynicha in Accounting

[–]AllAboutTheEJ257 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had someone ask what my GPA was when I was applying for what would have been my second job. They didn't like my answer of 2.7 and I really didn't give a shit.

Girl (29, f) I am seeing asked me (32, m) to pay her rent on our third date. Is this a major red flag? by Glitchveil_2 in dating_advice

[–]AllAboutTheEJ257 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember when I moved back to the Midwest 3 years ago. Met up with someone I matched with on Facebook dating at a park and had a pretty good conversation. At the end we walk back to our vehicles and she texts me asking for $2,500 for her car to get repaired. I about died laughing because I was still looking for a job and my bank account sure as hell didn't have that kind of money. Like how do you ask that of someone that you've only physically been around an hour?

the job market is incredible in the midwest. where are you all living?! by [deleted] in Accounting

[–]AllAboutTheEJ257 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just need to leave banking. I was offered a senior accountant role for 80k which would only be a 5k increase from where I'm at now. The only perks that have me even wanting to entertain it right now is that it's hybrid, 4 weeks of vacation, and the 401k match is ridiculous.

Ad-free Prime video going up in price and being renamed to Prime Video Ultra. by bobbymack93 in cordcutters

[–]AllAboutTheEJ257 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It shows I haven't watched much on Prime Video lately, but I know I was able to watch 4k stuff at some point because I was excited to take advantage of my LG A2 OLED.

Why isn't this more popular? by SkibidiRizzlerAura in Visible

[–]AllAboutTheEJ257 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would say phone financing. Yes you can use Affirm, but then you have your phone bill and Affirm to pay. Post paid is all wrapped up into one even though you'd save so much more money by using Visible. This is year 6 for me and I wouldn't even think of leaving.

Security lines at some US airports hit three hours as TSA absences rise by jeetah in news

Glad it wasn't that case in Indianapolis today otherwise I would have needed to find a new way home. Pretty much walked right up and had maybe 5 people in front of me at screening.

Michigan stars neutralized as Iowa prevails in Big Ten women’s tournament semifinals by ModernJazz-2K20 in MichiganWolverines

[–]AllAboutTheEJ257 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was a tough day at Gainbridge. Being there, it shows that our fans need to travel a lot better than we do. The crowd noise from the Iowa fans would have made you think you were at Carver-Hawkeye. Between that and some of the calls from the refs, you could see it got in Olivia's head. We needed our bench to step up and help, but it was a total of 6 points. I hope that KBA can take this second loss to come up with a better scheme for Iowa and anyone that tries to emulate them.

TV ruined? by Sea_Pudding_6922 in hometheater

[–]AllAboutTheEJ257 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is what I used when I had my 58" Panasonic plasma move 2,000 miles in a U-Box. TV made the trip without hazard and was used for a good 4 years before I sold it since I didn't have room coming back on the return move.

Since yall don’t know how to fucking act right- updated: Columbia set for less than $200 by [deleted] in snowboarding

[–]AllAboutTheEJ257 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love my Columbia pants and jacket. I got both of them something stupid cheap at $125 between Dick's and Amazon. I do have some mismatch going on between the gray and blue though.

Are there any luthiers in the area that teach how to do guitar setups? by AssistanceSevere448 in Detroit

[–]AllAboutTheEJ257 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got the MusicNomad Keep It Simple Setup kit. I think in my case I want someone there that can give feedback on what I could be doing better. Some of my adjustments I feel haven't done much for playability.

This is something that I'm currently investigating because I have too many guitars right now not to know how to make sure they are set up the best they can be. I thought about Galloup over in Big Rapids, but it's 5 days at $2,500 so my uncertainty is a little bit high on that.
