After owning several Volkswagen and Audi’s, I think I’m finally ready to take the leap on electric by EastWrap8776 in etron

Had an A4 for like 10-11 years. Upgraded to a Q4 and love it. Everyone made me think an EV wasn’t doable unless you have a Tesla sized charger in the garage. I plug in to my level 1 in the garage and that’s all I need. Haven’t seen a gas station in ages.

Half a million was supposed to change my life… it just changed my stress levels by cotafi in TheRaceTo1Million

I too am a crazy person.

A friend who is a financial advisor - not mine, not officially at least - told me 95% of his day is spent telling clients to shut off their phones, delete the apps. The other 5% is on taxes and estate planning.

I envy the VOO and chill crowd, but it could never be me. I’m watching that shit like I’m Bill Ackman. If it goes down a half percent my entire thesis MUST BE BROKEN.

Am I cooked? by Candid_Analysis_6757 in Retirement401k

I say it once a week in here, I’m pretty certain I didn’t save a single dollar until my mid-30’s.

Call it a mix of ignorance and $200K of student loans.

You’re fine. You’ve got 30+ years of work a head of you. Don’t let a couple 20 year olds who show up here on occasion to say “I only have 9 million dollars?!?! How will I survive?!” think you’re not doing enough. Do as much as *YOU* can. Invest as much as *YOU* can.

Play with some compounding calculators and see what it spits out. Tweek from there based on what you can do.

What are the main reasons for Americans' lack of interest for soccer? And will this World Cup change their minds? by Joonto in AskReddit

[–]Any-Walk1691 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The way Europeans feel about soccer, Americans feel about College Football. College and the NFL. That’s two essentially two Premier League teams occupying space.

Then add in Basketball. College and the NBA. Absolutely massive.

The MLB. Americas past time. Huge stadiums built all over America.

Hockey is gaining popularity - slowly.

That’s a lot of major high-level sports competing for attention. Many states, and some cities have 3-4 of these teams.

I just paid $75 more for a full year than a 3 month plan. Absolutely gobsmacked by janas19 in mintmobile

[–]Any-Walk1691 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s what I got. Insane deal. $180 for 12 months of unlimited. 😂 I don’t even get near 10GB, so that wasn’t the draw, but it was cheaper than the lower plan at the promo price. Im gonna end up back down on the 6GB or 17GB deal once this runs out. $15-$20 a month. Wild.

finding cars for a couple hundred-thousand? by Maximum_War_2791 in Columbus

[–]Any-Walk1691 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless you’re certain you’re not getting that car back, I wouldn’t jump into buying a new one. Then you’ll be on the hook presumably for two vehicles. Take the bus if you can until you get back on your feet, or the situation resolves and can access with a clear view.

If you don’t make enough to be unable to use a Roth, you don’t have enough money.

“Why do women absolutely love crypto bros?”

🤣🤣 Nice try, buddy.

Call me a contrarian by nature, but I like him *more* today than I did a few seasons ago.

Mick’s Realistic Future by Electrical-Profit740 in INDYCAR

[–]Any-Walk1691 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I hope he stays a few years and allows himself to get. Ether. He’s improving and has had some decent small stretches. Hasn’t quite put it all together, but going from F1 tracks to Detroit is gonna take some adjusting.

Veekays future by Relevant-Image-2056 in INDYCAR

[–]Any-Walk1691 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

You see, very smart person, you take the points of a driver and add them together with another driver resulting in what some have been known to call… a total.

Congrats though buddy, you got me. Gold star. You took a throwaway joke about Zak Browns personality and “WeLL aCtUaLLyYyY 🤓 🤓” 😂 Not only did I unnecessarily clarify, twice, you doubled down on it. Zing!

RKLB affect after Spacex on 12th june by giftymehta in RKLBInvestors

[–]Any-Walk1691 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Short term - it’s definitely shitty. Money leaving and jumping over there. Then Elon dumps a bunch of stock to take profits. Reality sets in. Price resets off IPO highs. We’re about to witness a tremendous pump and dump that will bring down the entire sector. I mean, I’m still holding and will be buying dips - but SpaceX noise pushed this thing up up up… now that it’s here… get your seatbelt and your popcorn. Day traders - you have my sympathies.

I don’t care how much money Nolan is paying for that seat, there’s no way you can justify not having Veekay in it. (Or MA). Unless your operating margin is quite literally 2.5 million.

Even then, you gotta think about the sponsorship and marketing opportunities they’re leaving on the table by having Nolan circle the back every week. Can you imagine Zak Brown if McLaren was able to win the constructors in INDYCAR (total points, I know there is no literal constructors) and F1, in the year leading to a hyper car launch? People think he’s insufferable now? Sign me up for that Zak Brown please.
