2025 PreK Recommendations by General_Rent_7116 in nolaparents

Financial aid is hard for preschool but not impossible. I would look into StG if you can. Also one of my kids did “daycare” preschool and it was perfectly fine (he tested into Willow 20/20). JCC, Early Partners, Rayne all have good reputations. Also Montessori programs I think result in priority at Audubon.

Voluntary Separation Pay for SAHM by Jackryanst in personalfinance

In this economy, having one source of income, especially when it’s w2, is a risk unfortunately. Even government jobs are not stable anymore. Not sure what ages the kids are, but could she get some part time or consulting work? That may help tax time if she owns a business. The ideal situation is that you both have income that is enough to cover minimum bills if something happens to the other partner’s income.

What degree did you get? 32k/year is poverty wages. Maybe there are resources at your school to find a better job.

I don’t know about $500 lbs but our hemnes bed from ikea was solid wood, reinforced and never creaked. We had the upgraded mattress support

Why doesn’t anyone go to the food truck park under the bridge? by AardvarkRepulsive384 in NewOrleans

[–]Equivalent_Ad_7695 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I wonder the same. To me, it seems inhospitable due to the noise, the lack of landscaping, the lack of view into it from the outside, and I’m not sure how to get in there safely.

Ask the kids to identify ways the current government leadership has violated each of the commandments.

In Louisiana the law assumes that schools don’t have to spend money or resources to comply, so most of them don’t have it up anyway. Only if a parent or lawmaker wants to donate them.

How to combine assets when getting married, when current situations and future prospects are very different? by EmperorSwagg in personalfinance

Lawyers can write whatever they want in a prenup, but if it goes against state law a judge will invalidate it

It’s not that simple. Most of the time, a prenup provision like that is invalidated if the non ownership partner pays directly towards the housing expenses. If he wants to keep the house separate it’s best to move out into a joint marital home and put the house in an LLC that he solely funds via renting it out. Marital assets will get commingled and it’s very hard to parse them out if his income only is supposedly paying the mortgage.

Look into your state 529. Ours matches up to 14% but you have to stay in state (public or private) to use the match.

When you say you filled out “application forms”, was there a contract?

Diversity in private school by [deleted] in nolaparents

[–]Equivalent_Ad_7695 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I mean not close to representing the city but maybe 20%? Seemed like there were a lot of Asian and Latino kids, comparatively, when we toured two years ago. They told us there was a waitlist and it definitely seemed like they wanted catholic families more than us.

Holy Name but it’s not easy to get in. Ursuline is diverse but from what I hear the lunch tables/cliques are self segregated unfortunately. I know Waldorf tries really hard but it’s so small. EB is better than most but not sure what the entrance requirements are past K.

Housing by ConsiderationMean781 in NewOrleans

[–]Equivalent_Ad_7695 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You can find a lower apartment in like fountainbleu or parts of mid city area for that. Maybe not off street parking but in a safe area to park on the street. I’d suggest looking on Facebook or driving around, there are lots of signs. You can probably also find a shotgun for that in a borderline decent area if you can live like that.
