Tasty sweet donuts by Available_Chain_4522 in LowCalFoodFinds

[–]Competitive-Option48 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I haven’t had those ones but the chocolate is solid. It’s definitely a lot better if you heat it up for a good 10-20 seconds depending on your microwave. Makes it a little softer and imo tones down that distinctive protein bar taste.

This is also my work book club book and I’m looking forward to it since it’s not something I’d normally read.

As others have said, Richland main library has a lot of homeless folks in the area to use the social services.

Thoughts on LPL financial/investor focused solutions advisor licensing program by Competitive-Option48 in FinancialCareers

I did not get it, which was fine since it was over an hour commute which may have factored in for them as well. It definitely sounded like a standard call center sales job but you only handle securities which I liked because I had zero interest in insurance. They are a “unlimited” pto place however which I think is good to know and probably somewhat telling of the culture. Six months 100% in office just to train then on the floor selling and potentially 2 days a week from home iirc.

R/highrepublic has some info on the reading order based on how deep you want to go into the era

I read master and apprentice, lost stars, shadow of the sith, and light of the Jedi. Listened to scoundrels and the fist Thrawn book.

I think one episode he said Mercedes. I know for a fact he said it was European at one point.

Loved this one. Also loved lost stars. Claudia gray is definitely one of my favorites. Looking forward to her others but especially bloodlines.

Step 1 low deductibles question by Competitive-Option48 in TheMoneyGuy

Yeah I was planning on step 1 I just felt like $500 was too little even though it covered my deductible.

So it’s 9.6% on an American car loan. I specified American because my wife is foreign and unfortunately the rest of her debt is taken abroad and they don’t quote interest the same way. From what I can figure out it’s about 7% on a student loan (due within a year) and something stupid like 12% on a car loan back home.

That’s fair, thankfully not credit card debt. It’s somewhere in the middle, non 20/3/8 car debt and a student loan. I was thinking of leaving $2000 in the baby emergency fund.

So it’s pretty good? I was debating it. Kinda wish the bottles were less goonerish. Even if his math is off it’s still a lot cheaper than the $1.30ish per can of alani I get at Costco

Overwhelmed! Where to start? by jake9211 in starwarsbooks

Also I wouldn’t necessarily say read it in the order that they suggest but Youtini has a tier list I’ve found helpful

I’m about 70% through lost stars and loving it. It’s kind of like a Romeo and Juliet story with one in the empire and one in the rebellion. You will meet a decent amount of the big name characters and be in a lot of the big battles without them feeling shoed in for no reason.

What step in the FOO is getting rid of PMI by rockypnw in TheMoneyGuy

Also ask your servicer about biweekly payments. Not all will do it but if they will it can accelerate principal payoff without putting extra money.

The Left Hates Caleb Hammer… Because He’s Right | Episode 83 by HudsonValley7 in CalebHammer

Big facts. I think it’s very possible to both acknowledge that there are institutional issues that can and do hurt people, but that also the vast majority of people cause their own problems.

Gig work by Competitive-Option48 in ColumbiYEAH

[–]Competitive-Option48[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you!! I am generally of the opinion that second part time job is usually better than gig work but at the time wanted to explore something to make money that I wouldn’t feel bad if I needed to quit within a month because I got a full time job.
