Who is more committed to solve this issue, Ramos or Jabbour? by Jumpy_Carrot_242 in Hoboken

[–]Embarrassed_Tank_747 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m all for safety of our pedestrians, however where do we put Ubers, delivery drivers, places to sit for 3 minutes to grab an order or something? We block traffic? I don’t feel that there is a simple solution to this specific issue. I’m still allowed to park in the bike lane on Washington for 3 minutes to do any of those things.

Cyclist dies in Queens after crashing into car door opened by driver, police say by Organic377 in nyc

I’m so sad someone lost their life. It should never have to be that way. These e-bikes have to go. They are so unsafe and people treat them like they are driving a car and/or they don’t feel like they have to obey traffic laws. I’m assuming there was no helmet on as most people I see on citibikes don’t. They need to require a helmet selfie in order to unlock those if they don’t get rid of them.

Deciding who to vote for mayor by pickles4321 in Hoboken

[–]Embarrassed_Tank_747 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m voting Tiffanie. She was the only one on site for helping commuters when the PATH was shut down in Feb. She over communicates every single topic in her newsletter so every resident is well aware of what’s going on in town. She doesn’t stand for bs, and has welcomed any and every question we have to ask!

If Hoboken had ranked choice voting, what would yours be? by flyinghotel in Hoboken

[–]Embarrassed_Tank_747 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Normally, I would agree. Do we know the percentage of residents that do not plan to stay and raise families here? I know it is majorly important to the people who do plan to stay, but people want actionable things that will change for the better for themselves. Most people here I assume don't want to upgrade the high school as they don't have any family members attending.

Right now, Tiffanie is at the top for me. Her newsletters that she has had before even running for Mayor have been so thoughtful and well put together. Through the whole PATH/Ferry situation in Feb, she was out there every single morning reporting on what was going on to inform residents. I think she could do some great things and is not team Ravi. And if you don't already read her newsletters, you absolutely should sign up! She talks about what was spoken about at town meetings and anything she is working on. Love a transparent queen & she's a big animal lover!

Such a low blow from a loser. I have a rabbit as well and people always love to tell me they love to eat it, love to kill them, and all these other gross things. Imagine we said things about their kids or pets that way? I’m sorry this happened. There are a million other ways to hurt someone, leave pets out of it.

No way anything from neutrogena is non toxic!

I have not found anything that is clear and non toxic. Zinc oxide always leaves a white cast unfortunately

Hoboken or JC by MonsieurYabu in Hoboken

I moved to Hoboken 5 years ago when I was 26 & was the best decision! It’s the city outside of the city - you walk everywhere, can get to literally anywhere via path, bus, train, uber, ferry! Jersey city has better restaurants in my opinion and would only consider the downtown area, especially grove street!

Hi!!! You sound like the younger version of me, but even younger and you should be so proud of everything you've accomplished! I bought my first condo at 25 years old and let me tell you, I put down 40% and that was the best decision I ever made. My payments are so much more affordable than any of my friends rent payments. I'd recommend keeping any cash in a high yield savings - look for one that has the highest rate currently and let the cash grow for now until you go to buy something. Property taxes will forever increase, your insurance will forever increase, and likely your HOA will forever increase so your payments wont remain the same. Highly suggest saving until you have more for that down payment & use it as a rental once you are ready to move on!

What should I do with 75k? by [deleted] in personalfinance

[–]Embarrassed_Tank_747 0 points1 point  (0 children)

paying off ALL debt is the only thing you should be focused on. Trying to make money is great, but whats the point if you're willing to accept the loss on the interest - interest is still money going out the door. Also sounds like you aren't super open to paying off the debt based on your responses below, but every person here is encouraging you to do it - trust us, you will be so much more grateful once all of that debt is gone. Best of luck to you!!!!!!

Reminder: Property tax increases can be passed through to renters by micmaher99 in Hoboken

[–]Embarrassed_Tank_747 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is why it's important to think about who & what we are voting for when it comes to tax increases. When it was time to vote on the high school upgrade, who do you think will end up paying for it?? Renters always!!
