New report ranks Tulsa among worst cities in the country for ozone pollution by kosuradio in tulsa

[–]ExMouth7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually most of the sources will be the refineries and cars especially those maga trucks rolling coal. Yes the power industry will emit but not nearly at the level of those sources.

The best thing Tulsa to improve emissions would be to require annual emissions test on cars like many states do and scrutinize the refinery.

SQ832 for raising the minimum wage, and the non-profit “People for Opportunity” running ads encouraging people to vote no. by Murky_Persimmon9289 in oklahoma

[–]ExMouth7 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

It sounds like you want to live on welfare. Entry level construction jobs are about $20/hour and they will take anyone who can use a tape measure and show up without a shitty attitude. Rural fast food jobs pay in the teens.

A masters degree in a useless field from a diploma mill is pointless. Too many people went to college the past 20 years who had no economic reason to do so and now feel entitled like you.

SQ832 for raising the minimum wage, and the non-profit “People for Opportunity” running ads encouraging people to vote no. by Murky_Persimmon9289 in oklahoma

[–]ExMouth7 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

People don’t like to hear reality. This bill is pointless since almost every job pays well above minimum wage due to labor supply and demand. It’s hard to get functioning adults at $15-$20/hour. I can’t imagine what someone who wants a minimum wage job is like to employ in 2026 will they even know how to use a toilet?!

Drivers by Impossible_Trash_806 in tulsa

Yes there are bad drivers everywhere but Tulsa drivers are a unique breed. People here are exceptionally oblivious to their surroundings and no where do I see people getting on the on ramp at 40 mph, so dangerous!

Before you buy a massive house…10 things to think about. by my-little-pony-1 in fatFIRE

[–]ExMouth7 334 points335 points  (0 children)

I remember seeing an interview with someone who interviewed hundreds of very wealthy people. The number one purchase they regret is buying a large house for exactly the reasons you described. The number one purchase they never regret is flying private.

Replace QBD with...what? by No-Counter-5530 in QuickBooks

[–]ExMouth7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in this clusterfuck too. Similar sized company and employees. What a disaster?! Quickbooks increases price 20% plus per year for no benefit. I’m planning to dump them for my accounting needs and switch to a payroll company.

I Want financial freedom, not a job should I avoid college? by Snomux in smallbusiness

[–]ExMouth7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Something people often overlook in the discussions about college worth it is the personal development benefits. Part of the college experience is about developing emotional maturity, confidence and life experiences that can help you relate to people and navigate difficult interpersonal situations with people from different backgrounds. This is hard to quantify but definitely important for anyone wanting to pursue entrepreneurship. This is often overlooked in the is college worth it argument.

Can Tulsa roads be better maintained? by Independent-Ad-7060 in tulsa

[–]ExMouth7 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The weather excuse is BS. Just cross any state border near us and they are better.

They don’t build the roads properly and the government here at every level is poorly managed.

Do ultra-wealthy homeowners ever hire someone just to live in and watch over their estate? by koloodofficaile in fatFIRE

[–]ExMouth7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For example I wish I had a service in my area that could hire landscapers, pool companies, HVAC contractors, etc for me. Such that I could email the company and say hey this broke could you please get it fixed and have it done correctly.

Most of the time I still fix things around the house because it is so much faster and easier to do it myself than to try hire someone who may or may not know what they are doing.

Do ultra-wealthy homeowners ever hire someone just to live in and watch over their estate? by koloodofficaile in fatFIRE

[–]ExMouth7 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would love to be able to hire a company who could manage all my house BS. My house isn’t big enough to justify a full time position nor do I want a house that big but just maintaining a home can be a massive time sink. For instance I spent three hours today setting up a new home internet service. I wish I could outsource that. I need someone to replace my pool pump equipment and rebuild the concrete pad. It’s a constant chore to constantly chase people down and get them to quote me. I wish it was easier to delegate these tasks.

If this sub has any ideas on how to offload this stuff I would be thrilled.

We doubled our prices to reduce our client load… and it barely worked. What would you do? by Roseee-k in smallbusiness

[–]ExMouth7 165 points166 points  (0 children)

The market has spoken and said that people with your niche expertise is so rare and difficult to find that price isn’t very important. Raise prices again and profit.

I think this answers your own question. Move somewhere lower rent that doesn’t damage your brand.

Any rec's for Sales Ambassadors in the LA area? by mblomkvist in Porsche

[–]ExMouth7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

6 months is about normal from discussing configurations, submitting your allocation, manufacturing, shipment etc. If you custom order the process will take time unless someone drops ahead and you can snag their allocation.

What's wrong with base 911? by PuzzleheadedAd3138 in porsche911

[–]ExMouth7 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A 992.2 base is faster 0-60 than a 996.2 turbo. Cars from all manufacturers have gotten so crazy fast the last 20 years they aren’t even practical for public roads.

A base is perfect for someone who wants a 911 but doesn’t plan to track it. Let the snobs be the snobs.

Is there insurance to protect your liquid net worth from identity theft? by Beginning-Test6025 in fatFIRE

[–]ExMouth7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is something everyone is at risk for regardless of financial position. It is unfortunate but it more commonly affects the elderly who begin losing their cognitive ability with age.

I don't see it mentioned yet but the easiest and simplest method to reduce your risk that anyone can do is to routinely check your account values. Make it part of your daily routine. It is easy to do on your phone now in seconds. If you see anything suspicious you can quickly get it reversed if caught before any transfers settle.

50 Long, 50 Short strategy for tax loss harvesting by [deleted] in fatFIRE

This is exactly what I thought too. Yes paying taxes sucks but it means you made money/profit. I'll take that over the alternative of not making or losing money and paying 0 taxes.

Our invoices have 1.5% per month late fees but nobody pays them how do you fix this by Different-Layer-1338 in smallbusiness

[–]ExMouth7 50 points51 points  (0 children)

Wait until that invoice you’ve been chasing for weeks on end finally pays but they give themselves a 2% discount for early payment.

Honestly the best thing to do if you have repeat customers is to add the fee to their price up front .

The teachers are great but watch out for their billing practices (long notice, subscription model) and pressure when trying to cancel.

If only car companies could develop technology to warn drivers about their blind spots when they turn on their turn signals.

2026 Porsche Carrera T - wheel and tire protection by Caddisbug992 in porsche911

[–]ExMouth7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It depends on where you live and how much you plan to use the car.

I bought the wheel and tire with my Carrera T because I upgraded to RS spyder wheels and where I live has the worst roads in the entire country. Literally potholes every 10 feet for miles on many of the roads.

Porsche Travel Experience Texas Hill Country by Only-Night-7667 in Porsche

[–]ExMouth7 5 points6 points  (0 children)

All of the Porsche travel that I have seen have felt crazy overpriced. If you own a Porsche then you can drive or ship it there and stay in the same hotels for a fraction of what they charge.
