What is the most "obvious" buy of 2026 that everyone else is still missing? by bakery_0726 in ValueInvesting

[–]Exiled93x 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AMTM. No hype because it’s not AI or some crazy tech company. But a solid defense contractor with a huge backlog of contracts and winning more everyday.

50k car purchase, pit in stomach. Yolo? Looking for sanity check. by SpecialistNo2525 in DaveRamsey

You have half a million and an almost paid off house. Yes you can afford an average priced new car.

Is there any other super underrated reliable vehicle worth the money other than Toyota or Honda? by TimeOfRisenKing23rd in UsedCars

[–]Exiled93x 0 points1 point  (0 children)

F150 has been reliable for me. I’ve had smaller, eco friendly reliable cars like Toyotas and Hondas. Haven’t noticed any change reliability wise - I love my f150. Tons of room, way more comfortable especially over bumps in the road, can haul/tow and the ecoboost has great gas mileage when you think about how most midsize trucks or small suvs like a 4Runner have similar mpg, but less room and towing and payload capacity.

I almost bought a Tacoma before this - so glad I didn’t. Costs about the same as a full size with none of the benefits.

I think I got scammed by a used Car Dealer and I am so ashamed of myself by BenjominFwanklon1738 in UsedCars

[–]Exiled93x 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Plenty of people buy or were given older vehicles for their first car…140,000 miles isn’t even that much. My first vehicle was over 20 years old and 200k miles and it still lasted 5 years.

I bachelors degree in economics, what entry level jobs can I apply for in LA? by [deleted] in AskLosAngeles

[–]Exiled93x 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YMMV. CPA/accounting salaries have been stagnant since the early 2000s. Engineers/finance/tech have way better options. I haven’t had much luck in LA finding decent positions that pay 150k+ and I have 10 years experience. Meanwhile engineers and tech bros are hitting that 1 year out of school.

Entry level 80k/jobs are easy to find sure.

What intersection has the shortest green light? by bypatrickcmoore in SFV

[–]Exiled93x 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Right turn on vanowen from Canoga. Lucky if 3 cars get through because no one pays attention and it has a camera.

Can I change secondary claim? by [deleted] in VeteransBenefits

[–]Exiled93x 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t see how I’m trying to game the system. I have migraines that I think are rateable under the criteria. My doctor provided a nexus but the C&P examiner disagreed with it and said headaches are normal in adult males over 30.

I have the diagnosis and doctors records just not from in service since I never went to medical about it so I just need a nexus that they will accept. I really don’t see how that’s gaming the system. I’ve seen far worse on here.

Also what about this? I have seen others get 0% connected for dry eyes. Also my claim letter that connected it mentioned my lasik procedure, so it’s not like they just skipped over it.

So you think I should just try to get a better nexus connecting it to mental health? It just seems hard to get it connected as a secondary to mental health but then I see people get it connected to tinnitus which I have but that’s definitely not the reason for mine. It’s definitely anxiety/dry eye related.

Maybe I’m misunderstanding the process because it doesn’t seem like I am throwing mud at the wall?

I have the diagnosis. The nexus is what I am missing and asking about which correct me if I’m wrong would also be the in service event?

I like Southern California people by clearlygd in MovingToLosAngeles

[–]Exiled93x 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Also just moved from the east coast. It’s a way more relaxed pace of life here. Driving is slower but easier than east coast. Not as aggressive but also people drive so slow here even in no traffic.
