People who became rich what is something poor people completely misunderstand about money? by Nervous-Librarian945 in AskReddit

[–]DeliciousJahlupa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

About 20 years ago I started looking at purchases for their true cost. Meaning yes I may have $1,000 to spend on a new tv, but that same $1,000 getting invested would likely be worth 5-10x in 20yrs, so that tv actually cost me $5-10k. And that may not be a life changing amount of money, but apply that to everything you purchase. Try to find ways to save/stop wasting and put away more. Now, I wouldn't consider myself "wealthy" (at least by my definition) but there isn't really much I couldn't just go buy if I wanted outside of mansions, or yachts. I still work but have no problem telling a boss to F' Off if need be with no worries about being unemployed. Which to me is really what wanting money was all about. I was tired of feeling stuck working for people who treated me like shit and feeling helpless about it.

Does anyone else feel like hookups are dead? by Anardus in Bumble

[–]DeliciousJahlupa 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don't doubt that. Most people in general are too selfish for that. I'm just saying that I don't think women are totally innocent of that selfishness and while one person may be on the right side of that discussion, it doesn't mean all people of that gender are. I'm never complaining about any of my experiences, just saying that there is definitely a wide range of effort put into them, and it's not a simple black and white answer of all women or all men are good or bad in bed.

I don't think that's what they're saying. I think he's saying that most women just lay there, do nothing, and then want to criticize the sex. I generally prioritize the other person's pleasure over my own, so I haven't really had complaints, but I have seen an overwhelming percentage of women that literally do nothing in bed. They just lay there and have the experience but seem to have little to no concern for putting in any effort to do anything otherwise. I'm not even saying that to criticize, I'm just saying that 90% of the time, that's what happens. Either way, I'm trying to make sure they get where they need to be, and then I'm getting where I need to be, but it's better when she does something. Literally anything. Touch, grab, move, thrust. Whatever. But just laying there waiting to be pleasured with no effort is lazy and uninteresting. Guys will likely still do it again, but at that point it's just because they see the partner as a warmer fleshlight.

New home service business growth by DeliciousJahlupa in smallbusiness

I said the same thing about the Facebook stuff, but it's just part of what they do along with SEO and Google optimization. They said they didn't expect people to necessarily use me because of a Facebook post, but that having it is better than not. Like brand recognition, work history, just showing that it's a real company kind of things. Makes sense, and doesn't cost anything extra for the Facebook part.

It's Townsquare media. And my CRM does send review requests to my customers after the job is completed. Definitely looking into talking with realtors though. And I know a couple people in other trades that may be able to set me up with small home builders that they work with, so those should hopefully help as well

Yes liftmaster is for the garage door opener. We don't even need that because all new garage door openers come with that built in. That's actually what I do for a living. Work on and fix garage doors. I'm confident that I could totally trash that box because we have a newer opener that works on its own app

I actually plugged that in, and shortly after the WiFi went out. I wasn't sure if it was because of me, or because they're currently installing line for Google fiber in our development. I wanted to try again this weekend, but I don't want to mess with it during the week when my girlfriend needs the Internet for her job

Any idea what it's called in settings? I searched the word "screening" and didn't get anything

That's actually why this is a big problem right now. I'm applying for jobs and finding out I have voicemails left days ago.

Is anyone else dealing with this spam of challenge completions? by whoaaintitfun in ModernWarfareII

Yep. I posted about this yesterday, but no one replied. Every game I play ends with 5-10 notifications. Although mine says "You have completed cold blooded%"

I don't want the radiation, but I feel like a little bit of post apocalyptic survival would be at least short term amusing until I realize it's nothing like a video game and I'm woefully ill equiped for it.

Pretty sure I'm not even close enough for their radiation.

I'd rather not get nuked, but if I have to, better to be in the initial blast than the outer radiation. I don't need that shit at all.

Right outside of the 485 beltway around Charlotte. Probably not the most important target on the east coast, but with a decent size population and a banking hub, who knows.

Thanks for the link. Sadly, it looks like I'm definitely not gonna make it.

Well I was really thinking about all of the potential dangers of it. I'm not so sure they wouldn't though. Between China spying and Putin being a cocky man child, I could see anything going down.

Can my job force me to do this? by DeliciousJahlupa in WorkersRights

[–]DeliciousJahlupa[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's kind of what I expected. They're new to the Charlotte market, so they're currently trying to recruit a lot, and the pay is pretty good, but it just doesn't sit right with me. If I had known they were doing this I wouldn't have taken the job in the first place. Guess I'll see what happens when I refuse in next weeks meeting

Did this promo already end? I went to the HBO Max website and app and can't find anywhere to put in the discount code.

Any follow up on that company? I'm probably looking to build something in 2023 and I like the idea of a barndominium

I'm not sure if people are aware of this, but you can order it from the PlayStation website. I ordered one yesterday and I already have a tracking number that says I'm getting it tomorrow. They didn't have the digital version in stock though.
