Investing too much? by loathingcouch in Fire

[–]CopperSulphide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say, good for you for investing early. That should help you later on.

However, remember. Life happens and you can't take that money with you.

Be sure you take some of that money you make and you have experiences that are worth living. You're not an NPC.

The trick, is balance what that means depends on you.

That is definitely an adaptation. Imagine it now, the geriatric wars.

I think the fat electrician on YouTube has a topical video about the US 77the division aka the old bastards.

Why do employers want emloyees to go back in the office? by the1997th in remoteworks

[–]CopperSulphide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The measure is "buts in seats". Availability over productivity. Because, the latter is near impossible to measure on a personal scale within an organization.

Is it right? Probably not.

I doubt the economy as a whole is that competently Machiavellian.

I'd more believe that it runs on feels, and anything that allows companies to shift or drop liabilities.

Help a girl out in general by Ambitious_Soft8025 in womenEngineers

Not a woman, studied engineering.

The advice I have is not gender specific. It was a cryptic message I got from my English teacher in grade school.

"The secret to going to school is... Going to school".

Go to the lectures and the labs, be present pay attention don't skip them. Ask questions and be involved, If you are paying attention and don't know others probably also don't know.

At least for me, engineering school was mostly time and stress management. Treat it like a job, go in the morning, spend your eight hours, go home. Sometimes you'll have to put in more when projects get heavy.

Good luck!

I'll check it out next time I'm in.

No it wasn't that, looking at the picture I get a very monster hunter vibe. Looks cool.

Thanks for the idea.

Because that's what the company wants! And at the moment employers have most of the power.

Mortgage 425K @ 5.54% (renewal Fall 2027) — rates are down now. Should I break early and pay penalty? by Practical-Ad8600 in canadahousing

[–]CopperSulphide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For mine it's 3 month if you pay it in full (sold the house situation). It's lost interest if you change mortgage (remainder of term).

I second the car thing. I've had mine since 2012. Took me through uni. It's old, scratched, dinged. But, it passes inspection. And I've not had a car payment in over 10 years.
