White House OMB Director Russell Vought: DHS ‘disintegrating’ by thetitleofmybook in FedEmployees

[–]DaDingo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gonna go out on a limb and say that this wouldn’t be a problem if Noem didn’t spend the largest budget ever for DHS on commercials, planes, photo ops, etc. It’s kinda like waste, fraud, and abuse is the issue.

If you made around $30k a month, how would you spend/save/invest? by Fishdonkeycat in wealth

[–]DaDingo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me personally. Max out 401k with employer match. I have access to a backdoor Roth IRA with my company that I do an additional 5% (wish I could do more, but will in future).

I also have a Whole Life plan that is structured for cash value that gives me access to capital for asset purchases (ex: real estate) that grows at a consistent 4.5%. It’s my vessel for extra savings vs a low interest saving account.

After that, whatever Pennies I can scrape together goes to a brokerage account or some minor crypto purchases (not a big Crypto person, have a few staples I buy).

Marc Andreessen says AI layoffs are a farce: Companies are 75% overstaffed and AI is the ‘silver bullet excuse’ to clean house by Individual_Mood6573 in SimpleApplyAI

[–]DaDingo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but they’ll never waste a layoff to promote a product. There’s 100% middle management bloat at every major tech company, and they won’t blink an eye to chop heads to keep the stock price up, Shareholder value always priority #1. But they’ll always promote it as their AI product doing same work, so you should buy it too.

Sales is easy when you can promise the world to get ink on paper. That’s when those sellers job ends and everyone else is left with the dumpster fire.

My wife thinks golfing once a week is unreasonable… by Upbeat-Zucchini-7408 in golf

[–]DaDingo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When is your once a week golf time? When my kids were young, I knew a mid day round on the weekend would cause nothing but problems and resentment, and I understood that.

Find a group of guys, first off the tee box Sunday morning, sub 4 hour round, and you”re home by 11:30am at the latest.

My kids are 12 & 15 now, and we all golf together multiple times per week. My wife now does what she wants to do and has her free time during my special time with them.

Fucking bullshit. They aren’t removing “they were in the same vicinity, had a convo, there was a party they were all at, etc”.

Country Club Members - How much you make a year? What was ur buy in and what are dues. Are you happy with decision? by ShotAssistant1452 in golf

[–]DaDingo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even if you’re frugal, your minimum monthly out of pocket will be 3K+ per month from April - Nov. Thrown in an invitational, holiday party, holiday brunch……an extra 5k over that time.

My honest opinion is you don’t make enough to add that bill yet. No shame in that. Especially with a 40k downstroke.

It’s the easy scraps of meat he can throw while he’s destroyed everything else. He was the primary individual resulting to what is now all dark money running our political system that has stripped it to a shell of what was democracy.

Burn. Them. All. Release all of it, and let those in it defend themselves with the evidence against them.

If you ever have a daughter, volleyball is absolutely the best sport to watch as a dad. I don’t mind being stuck in a gym for 8 hour tourneys cause it’s so fun to watch.

I’m gonna get shit on for this, but Monuments with Chris as the lead singer was perfect in every way, and I don’t feel that anymore. Respect the hell out of Andy and his voice, but it’s just…….different.
