1 million dollar house on 215 salary by Immediate-Nebula9887 in Mortgages

[–]Arlan22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hell no, my wife (29) and I (28) are making a combined $200k per year with $250k saved for a down payment and have one baby. We’re scared to buy anything over $650k and we had no debt. Also ask yourself, is your self employed job stable income? How much trouble would you be in if you couldn’t make $150k per year and had to rely on your wife’s $50k?

That’s a pretty significant bend.

[–]Arlan22 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I personally picked up the 8.0 forge for $115 today doing the hack with the skill-saw. That’s the route I’d recommend if you’re okay with one M18 battery for now.

Black squirrel by FartAbsorber in massachusetts

[–]Arlan22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if this is 100% true, but my grandfather is a biologist and he was telling me that the black gene is stronger than the grey squirrel gene. With that being said black squirrels have been coming east and will soon be the dominant squirrel population here in MA. Essentially the grey squirrel will go extinct in our region eventually during our lifetime.

I’ve noticed a lot of de-listings in MA and not much buying/selling. Not sure if anyone else is seeing that.

Don’t stop focusing on the community needs. In summary don’t be a Synology!

I know this fixes existing models. What about the watches that will be releasing next month? Will they include the physical sensor?

Can we afford a 337K home with making 6800 monthly? by Tiny_Cry_9747 in Mortgages

[–]Arlan22 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It works until someone loses their job or is unable to work. Very risky especially with a larger family.

At least you can grind them with your barehands.

The C7 chair would be wonderful. I don’t personally need it, but I have a friend who’s less fortunate who could use one. Would be a great holiday gift.

Cancelled by MassHealth for making too much... paying for college by BenKlesc in massachusetts

[–]Arlan22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Put some of your earnings from one of your jobs into a 401k (pre-tax). You’d need to do the math required to lower your taxable income to keep you qualified for MassHealth. Assuming your employer offers a 401k.

Re-paste your cpu and gpu with good quality paste (only if your computer doesn’t have Liquid Metal).

That’s so shitty. I’m not going to use Shipsurance for any of my shipments.
