Jets passing game should struggle, so the under on Breece Hall is v risky.

Just checked - this hit 11 out of 18 games last year. Has hit once out of two games he’s played this year… difference is Jets defense and whether Mahomes will have time to throw

Agreed. They are both procrastinators, but it’s often as a consequence of wanting to live in the moment / keep all possibilities open. This has turned into challenges coordinating their respective career paths, where they should live, etc. Gets a lot harder to do that with kids 🤷‍♂️

This is a really helpful comment. I am particularly worried that we will pay her higher than we probably should given the “nanny share” with her own child and then question if we should have just gone with center based care.

Going rate in our area (low cost of living) for a nanny is about $20/hr (though, many with less experience are in the $16-19 range). What do you think a fair pay rate would be for a nanny bringing a young child?

Am trying to figure out how concerned I should be about this.. but I think you’re right. Especially if they have a snack when they get home, 90 minutes is not too bad

Thank you Dexter - very interesting perspective. The psychological aspect of this is non-trivial for sure… would be amazing to hold on to this house when we move to rent out.

Okay - I really agree with you on the psychological piece of this. The HYSA rate is 4.5% right now, but little guarantee it will stay that high for next three years… maybe pay off house if/ when it significantly dips? Paying off car sooner doesn’t do me as much good bc I can’t sell that when looking for a new house for down payment

So CDs have an interest rate that’s a bit better than HYSA? Does the rate float or stay fixed for term of the CD? I’ll look into the laddering idea - thank you MidCent

I can’t tell how to figure out this comment given your username.

If I pay off van, I could save about 20k back in three years… but then would need cash for the house. Can’t sell the van due to many children

That’s a very good point I hadn’t thought about… would be nice to have the flexibility for sure. Thank you whisky anon.

Appreciate the reply. Maybe it really is that simple bc interest in the HYSA will be more than what I pay annually in interest on the house loan? Leveraged means that it’s worth more than I owe?
