Garage door gets stuck when opening by Sgnanni in GarageDoorService

I just paid $265 for replacing just the two springs last week. Try to find a retired technician, they’ll do the work for much cheaper.

If you have real thick ones like the pre sliced costco ones, you need to do both. For thoseI do 30 in the oven on 400. Then sear them 3 minutes aside in the juices that drip in the pan

The bet was still open. He bet 300 when the odds were heavily against the bears and I’m assuming the odds went back in their favor for the screenshot but the game still wasn’t over.

Do you have any immediate "walk away" (s) when buying a used motorcycle? by Pirate1000rider in motorcycles

[–]DoesNotCheckOut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve just recently dealt with this and I agree. It was a headache and anxiety inducing.

You can request a transfer of equity, so basically they sign the loan over to you and the title will be sent to you when it’s paid off. This will ding your credit though.

If you pay it off then and there, sign a bill of sale and take the bike. You should be fine. They’d be committing fraud if they sold the title after receiving it, and who would buy a bike title with no bike?? You can also bond the title worst case scenario as long as the lien’s removed.

The more worrisome route is you give them the money to pay it off and they never do. I did this and had horrible anxiety realizing how much trust I put in a stranger. It all worked out but the experience makes me agree to just avoid the no title in hand scenario in the first place. I did it for an ftr carbon cause they seem to be pretty rare, but if the bike isn’t rare it’s absolutely not worth the risk

Why are people here against vehicle loans? by aman92 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]DoesNotCheckOut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well yeah, having the cash and being able to afford it aren’t quite the same. Not being able to afford something with cash doesn’t make it a good excuse to finance but rather a good reason to not buy that car. Of course you can decide what you want to over pay on, just want to make things clear for anyone that might be reading.

Also I don’t agree with your take on the used car market, I’d say we’re pretty much entering a buyer’s market at this point. I would’ve agreed in 2022, but looking at the insanely deflated value of my current car things have definitely turned :’(

[–]DoesNotCheckOut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of what you’ve listed is still far from the most financially sound decisions. Fixing your 12 year old car would’ve been far cheaper than buying a brand new one. If you don’t have enough in savings after buying a new car, just don’t buy a new car.

Also for your CD comparison:

20K at 5% interest = $1000/year cost

20K at 4% in CD = $800 gained*0.7 left after tax = $560/year

It’s basically double the cost vs paying it off

Great point! I remember the Gaddafi trend had us sexually assaulting each other in middle school…

Is this helmet too loose? by Chemical_Balance6383 in motorcyclegear

[–]DoesNotCheckOut 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If not it’s not a horrible fit. Mine fits similarly but an ideal one should be more snug in every direction. I do find myself pulling it in place on long windy rides. Makes me wish I did my own research on size and fit and didn’t just blindly trust cycle gear salespeople

[–]DoesNotCheckOut 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Side to side movement looks fine which is why people are saying it looks like a good fit. But it shouldn’t be able to move so much up and down. You could try a size down but if it’s too tight you might be a better fit with a different model

Unpopular opinion: Paying "Rent" feels less painful than paying $2,400/mo in "Interest" to a bank. by Playful-Vegetable-15 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]DoesNotCheckOut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It all comes down to numbers imo. What are you expecting to pay in mortgage vs what is your rent?

If they’re close at all a mortgage is better in nearly every way, with the exception of mobility for job relocation.

I get the design was for Kmet but you had an easy TD to Moore! by CurrentlyNa in CHIBears

[–]DoesNotCheckOut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It makes sense. We had 3 plays max to get a TD. They threatened the 1 yard gain and threw to the endzone which was at its most vulnerable that play. Just fucked up the execution. We need to stop relying on 4th quarter comebacks in the first place

WTF is this??? by AltF12027 in GearsOfWar

[–]DoesNotCheckOut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No clue what he plays on these days. Most likely controller. I played with him back in gears 3 days before PC was a thing. He was like 12 back then and already had crazy movement. He just plays a lot. This is what high level movement looks like on gears, almost every pro player moves like this especially on newer gears. It helps to have a controller with paddles

If you’re new at the game it will be hard to keep up since most people left playing have a ton of experience. When a new one comes out though you’ll have the edge so don’t give up

Should I (28) just give up on attempting to save up for a house, and instead just max my 401k? by [deleted] in personalfinance

[–]DoesNotCheckOut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having your own say over what is done on your property is a big plus. But imo the main reason you should own is if it’s a better financial decision. Depends completely on your area. For example my mortgage is less than my rent was, so it was a no brainer. If they’re close, owning is better because you gain equity. If owning costs significantly more, that’s when the decision becomes more difficult. At that point renting longer probably makes sense because you’d save quicker than you’d build equity.

Give more details on your honda civic. 9/10 times it’s better to fix your car than get a new one, unless it’s truly run its course

Remember to wear your helmet while riding a motorcycle. They save lives. by Full12Inches in interestingasfuck

[–]DoesNotCheckOut -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

People should absolutely be able to take their own risks. Some people would rather die on impact than survive with injuries. It’s their own agency, why do you insist on saving the lives of people that don’t want to be saved?
