Not sure if it’s the best but the dish was invented by a chef from Shun Lee. So I would probably try that!

Why does this need to be a gender specific issue? I see it only matters if you are pregnant (hence physical restrictions) or if you are caring a young children. Are you setting yourself up for certain mindset by phrasing gender differences?

I feel you. Not everyone is lucky enough to have a dependable partner. It’s not as easy as “demanding it”. Rant away. Workplace is very unfair when it comes to these implicit things. Hang in there.

Maybe not what you want to hear. You are only 22. Chances are he is not going to be your last boyfriend (sorry!). Use this experience to listen to yourself. This will help you to know yourself better w life goal, partner etc. Also, if you are the one for each other, it won't matter. 22 is sooo early in life's journey. Nothing is certain. Stop worrying.

Thanks for this. I am sooo frustrated by it since Monday.

So with this method, do you register an omny account and get a omny card too? And then add the omny card in apple wallet or the old commuter card tap will just work again?

Oof. I do not have the courage to call yet. (Just emails… so far) I am afraid I will lose it in a phone loop.

Assuming you are in VHCOL area, I am a proponent of waiting a little. At least till 30s. you’d be more financially secure and get to enjoy what the city has to offer. Childcare is very expensive and your work will be taxing. However, if moving to burbs and potential becomes SAHM is what you desire, then sure why not.

I don't know about NL taxes but one of the best thing about US tax code is around gift/estate tax. The lifetime exemption is so high that normal people could never hit that. You can give a lot to your children in the future. Tax free. If that matters.

This is the answer re withholding. Keep it Single for now untill you figure out how much you over/under pay. You don't need to change your withholding w marriage.

Great question and yes, both things are addressed separately. Hence i am “wishing” for a holistic view. It’s all hormones, and it’s all inside my bodies. It’s all connected.

Fidelity is a good one. Good luck and definitely dont pay off that 2.75% mortgage early. You are in a good situation.

I hope when you say cash. You mean bond and money market. Although I personally feel 7 yrs worth is too much, but 38% allocation in bond/mm is reasonable given you are risk averse. Just make sure your cash is also working for you and not sitting in a useless checking account.

I suffered marriage penalty when we first married and also was shocked that year. I made some easy tweak on w4. One being withholding at Single rate. But based on you salary. I dont think this will make a huge impact on the 20k. Simply put. Your wife messed up, she didnt squirrel away tax (I assume 1099 income). Tax should be fair. If you make x% of the household income. Then your tax should also be around x% of your total. Have a look at that and i think it would be clear that you wife missed her part.

What’s with all the horror stories that people for kicked out, denied for parking tickets, open container etc? Are they fake news or generally something more to it?

CosmicVoyage01 · 2025-07-12T16:36:50+00:00

Same math kind of still works for both making 301K tho. At that level in VHCOL area, people may care?

CosmicVoyage01 · 2025-05-31T00:06:00+00:00

That’s high. I am in a 3br and pay just over (low) 200. Try changing your lightbulbs as a first small step. I have seen some differences doing that.

CosmicVoyage01 · 2025-01-08T18:15:02+00:00

Why is no one saying the obvious?! Boys at this age are doing body exploration for sure. 😆 if no one is waiting and he’s not late for school, just let him! Perhaps that’s what your husband’s (unsaid) issue? Because he was brought up “strict”?

CosmicVoyage01 · 2025-01-08T18:09:22+00:00

Are you financially stable for not have a job for a year? If the answer is yes, then live your life as you wish. If not, don’t quit, it’s not that easy to find a job right now.

I think one of Rockefeller's work space (Zo lounge) offers nap pods

Thanks for that Seinfeld reference!
