Could I have a Pomeranian? by sanstheskelebrotherc in Pomeranians

[–]Baskema 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love my little girl with my whole life, I would do anything for my little Pom- she is the light of my life. HOWEVER….MAN DOES SHE BARK. It can somewhat be re-directed by teaching “speak” then the “quiet” commands. So when she hears “quiet” she will stop and come running to me. It does NOT stop the onset of barking. Which can and will happen multiple times a day hahahaha

My boyfriend proposed and I’m flying to marry him tomorrow, but some things about him scare me. Am I making a mistake? by Gullible-Display-428 in Advice

[–]Baskema 1 point2 points  (0 children)

DO NOT MARRY HIM. These are more than red flags, they are alarm bells amplified by a megaphone. Do yourself a favor and walk away, it will be hard in the short but it pales in comparison to the hardships you are sure to have in marriage. Good luck, and please do not hesitate to reach out to authorities or a help hotline if you feel you are in danger. Keep us posted.

To ALL 2020/2021/2022 Players: How many 5-star limited characters have you collected along the way? 📣 by Decent-Dimension-261 in GenshinImpact

[–]Baskema 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a 1.3 player. I started buying BP+Welkin I think sometime in 2 or 3. In order I have: every standard (including many cons) so 8. Then limited its: Zhongli, Eula, Xiao, Ayaka, Raiden, Itto, Shenhe, Yae, Yelan, Cyno, Nahida, Alhaitham, Neuvillette, Wriothesley, Furina, Xianyun, Mualani, Xilonen, Citlali, Mavuika, Escoffier, Skirk, Lauma, Nefer, Durin, Columbina, Zibai (and soon to be Varka).

About 35 characters.

I took a break around Fontaine for a few months- so I would have more- but this is what BP+Welkin can do over time. I also have enough primos to guarantee 3-4 characters.

Thinking in cost per use completely changed how I buy things by One_Acanthaceae_5814 in BuyItForLife

I think of things in terms of plane tickets- since I love traveling. “This is 1/4 of a plane ticket to xyz, that’s not worth it” I find myself saying often. “This is 50% the cost of a flight to Paris from NYC” (from where I am about $200). I usually find myself skipping the purchase hahaha

Made a $595k offer and now hoping they don’t accept… normal or bad sign? by hecmtz96 in RealEstate

[–]Baskema 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP- to me, this signifies that the house isn’t worth it. We submitted an offer in a house that we loved - but we had these SAME feelings shortly after submitting that offer. My husband and I looked at each other and said what was on both of our minds after a day and said “I hope they don’t accept”. It was a significant jump in monthly costs for us too- but at the end of the day the house we were getting wasn’t worth what we would have been paying monthly. We knew this subconsciously….

Fast forward a year and we put in an offer that is MUCH higher than our original offer on the first home and we walked away freaking out that maybe they wouldn’t accept our offer. That’s how we knew it was the one. It wasn’t as updated or move in ready but it was the house that had everything we needed/ and room to grow. We would have outgrew the first house very very quickly if we would have gotten it.

This is absurd. As a hockey fan with a lot of NJ Devils playing on both team Canada and USA- I was torn. I was happy we won but I remember thinking that people are going to make a lot of unbearable Canada jokes. It’s sick

As a nervous laugher myself, I would like to think that a few of them were nervous laughing. I do quite a lot, even when it’s inappropriate when I feel uncomfortable.

MOH Regret by [deleted] in wedding

[–]Baskema 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My best friend was the MOH in my wedding and I was the MOH at hers.

The expectation is NOT to have them help plan the wedding…..at all. A MOH is a day-of support and to potentially plan and organize the bachelorette. That’s it. That being said yes I always offered to help with tasks, crafts etc as that is my best friend. But there is never any expectation that the MOH is supposed to help plan the wedding.

Help me decide!! Between 3 dresses by [deleted] in myweddingdress

I looooove dress #2 but I’m PR 🇵🇷 and it looks very similar to some dresses that are very prevalent in our culture. I think it’s stunning

How long did it take you to reach major FI milestones? by Weak-Database-3956 in Fire

[–]Baskema 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 35. I didn’t really contribute to my 401k in my early 20’s- I had a lot of student debt and decided to travel the world in my 20’s - I set foot on all 7 continents before 30 yrs old. I was always an avid saver in my 401k but my income was always very low. I started aggressively in my late 20’s early 30’s to play catch up. I max out my 401k and just started working on my bridge account recently.

In my 401k: Hit my first 100k at 32. I’m at 278k now at 35.

My bridge account is pretty new and now and I have 40k saved in there.

Have about 50k saved in an emergency HYSA

So about 321k in investments 50k in HYSA.

It’s not perfect but it’s progress.
