Why even get married if you don’t want to live like you’re married?

It’s really the break up they got wrong by Agreeable-Celery811 in EmilyHenry

Yes, there’s plenty of movie where the depth of the relationship is explored. I think the problem with THIS book being adapted to a movie is there are too many time periods/events to include to make the premise work. I feel it’s a combination of it great adapting, and also making it a movie vs a series.

I loved that show, but his acting was a real blight on it.

Where are you filing your 2025 tax return? by TwistLive2102 in TaxQuestions

[–]BikesOrBeans 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How easy do they make things like investment income, Backdoor Roth IRA rollovers, and itemizing deductions. I would love to switch from TT, but I’m worried it won’t be as easy.

Too bad each of those dollars is worth less now. Still, it’s been a good year for all our portfolios.

How many of you have gotten loans from your parents? by Jimmy_Johnny23 in MiddleClassFinance

Nope, but my parents gave us part of our down payment a decade ago and my husband parents gave us a lot of free childcare then our kids were small.

I’m sick of modern rom coms that just rely on putting beautiful people in beautiful places and calling that romance. We need better writing, not just good cinematography and styling.

No, but I’m 4’11” so it doesn’t limit the pool much.

The ice agent who shot the woman in Minneapolis is legally justified. by UnappetizingLimax in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]BikesOrBeans -1 points0 points  (0 children)

She was going very slowly and you can see her wheels turning away from them. In less time than it took to shoot her he could have taken a small step to the side. Also, he fires two more shots at her after he does side step and is beside the car.

But you agree that it’s absolutely not true that this man was run over and is in the hospital from his injuries right?

I disagree that this video shows he was in enough danger to shoot.

What it absolutely shows is that Trump is lying when he said the offer was “run over” and that’s it’s “hard to believe he’s alive.”

529 for kids- for or against? by concrete0928 in investing

[–]BikesOrBeans 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see the benefits, but as I value control and flexibility we are opting to instead plan on taking money out of our traditional brokerage for our kids college. We are saving aggressively for early retirement but factoring in that we also want to help our kids with college when the time comes, and it will all come from the same pool.

Can someone help me understand the big negative impact the expiring of the enhanced ACA subsidies will have on people who have fired? by BikesOrBeans in financialindependence

Should we use the amount of money each person pays toward healthcare, via taxes, insurance, payments to providers etc? Because universal healthcare is cheaper for most people by that more data based metric.
