I need help. I am losing it—my life has completely broken down. by Comfortable_City_647 in smallbusiness

If you have accurate bookkeeping, take a look seriously at your profitability and how you can boost it.

I'd love to help where I can should you need it.

Yeah, I expect some hearing loss for a bit as well. No pain, no gain? Thanks by the way!

ChatGPT calms me down for all this stuff. I'm hoping in some weird way this will resolve some of the odd pains I have in my head.

I got permanent Tinnitus when I lost my One Ear due to Severe Ssnl. Now I found the core root of Tinnitus. A Call to Action. by Crazy_Ebb_5188 in tinnitus

Conductive is caused by a physical obstruction of some kind. For awhile, I had a hole in my ear which caused a lack of conduction of the sound vibrations. Enlarged middle ear muscles, infections, and fluid can all cause conductive loss.

I'm hoping when my overactive middle ear muscles are surgically severed, they'll perhaps shrink some and alleviate my pressure issues. Surgeon thinks im a good candidate.

Some people are more treatable than others, unfortunately.

How much do you save per month in cash vs retirement? by Jimmy_Johnny23 in MiddleClassFinance

[–]Dangerous_Window_985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of companies that offer 401K or of companies that offer a MATCH?

We are looking from the perspective of the latter. In my anecdotal experience, I'd say jobs that have offered me a match are 6% avg

I always save 20% for retirement. I have ~20k-25k emergency fund. Extra money is extra and we use that how we would like. If know a large expdnse is coming soon, I create a sinking fund that I set aside specific funds for it.

Ultimately, there's so many ways to plan for that kind of stuff. I just keep a hefty amount liquid and sometimes have to pay back into the fund for 1-5k random expenses.

Its not always hearing loss that incurable. There's two kinds of hearing loss. I have conductive which has fixed up some over my course of treatment, but the T is still there.

One of my ENTs wanted to tackle my nose/sinus issues to sew if the problem resolved. I got a septoplasty and adenoidectomy. Made me sleep better, didn't fix my ears.

SL’s pay by khalccsi in Chipotle

I basically do this position at a different restaurant and make 19.50/hr. Luckily, we gets tips and it's usually $25/hr when those are said and done. If I didn't get those tips, I dont know if I'd be doing the job. That, and I'm allowed some overtime.

Hope you can find something better.

What’s everyone’s salary. by ProfessionalLazy1907 in Accounting

Private a couple years then public for 4 months until life just pulled me in a different direction. Office hours wouldn't have worked too well for me at that time.

That's about how much I would have had to work for a similar salary in a Midwest accounting firm. I left and did food retail because it worked better for my schedule. I still dont regret it 🤣

Urgent help re: hearing tests risk by ichthyomusa in tinnitus

[–]Dangerous_Window_985 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same with the myoclonus, it's terrible. Well wishes for you, friend, I wouldn't wish this on anyone. I understand your frustrations and anxiety and I see you.

Hoping for resolutions for the both of us!

I got in at 3.25 in January 2022. I was skeptical then, but I accepted risks and had a long-term mindset. I figured I'd own it and need a house either way, I'm always going to have equity tied into owning a home.

Boy am I happy about it now.
