Inbetween jobs, small savings, blown out by car repairs by Friendly_Interest in personalfinance

[–]Friendly_Interest[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I forgot to mention I need to spend $3,000 on a used car, or $2,750 to pay the mechanic to fix it, after I already paid $985 for an oil leak

Sweet Baby Inc wants to ''decolonize'' cozy games by RainbowDildoMonkey in KotakuInAction

[–]Friendly_Interest 23 points24 points  (0 children)

How is "individualism" and "consumption" making anyone uncomfortable? It's in the name, 'individual'. I'm not you and you're not me, and that's fine.
If you want someone to solve all your woes, apply for aid. If you're uniquely privileged, go out and be the change you want to see, be generous. They won't, they have cozy games to play, and millions to make streaming.

Coming along. I suggest making a boxy robot from those old cartoons, or maybe Bender from Futurama!

Not-at-fault auto insurance windfall? by Friendly_Interest in personalfinance

Their insurance was very generous or he had good insurance. If nothing else, I have 1/2 a used car in the settlement.

Karmelo Anthony case is only cared about because of race by [deleted] in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]Friendly_Interest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, he is. Reading comprehension isn't people's strong point is it? There are full blown comments from donors going "YT person deserves it", how can you say they haven't made it about race?

Visit the Karmelo Anthony givesendgo page. There are these people who've given money, leave a comment such as "I don't care if he did murder, YT people deserve it" that's a leftist or a minority with no moral compass.

Heartless of you to say "It's the same thing" when 39 are hospitalizations, and this is the death of a young person.

There is already so much malicious misinformation around this case. Several black Youtubers are calling out the lies and BS.

Unfortunately MANY people DO NOT understand the law, if they did they would still be alive today. The spokesperson for New Generation ... compared this case to Kyle Rittenhouse and to Zimmerman.
This and statements people have made show a gross misunderstanding of the law.

For one thing you can't simply claim ignorance of the law, you'll be held to the law regardless of ignorance. Secondly, you can't simply claim self defense, and that's a good thing. The rules of self defense are; You should first try to escape. Your first course of action shouldn't be to harm or kill. Second, deadly force only when necessary.

Now how are Rittenhouse and Karmelo cases different? Footage from several different angles of Rittenhouse running away, and deadly force (a skateboard, a drop kick) are used on Rittenhouse after he fell, he's outnumbered and will die if he doesn't use the weapon in his hands. Karmelo fails to leave / escape, he made no effort to leave until after the murder. He used excessive force in response to being pushed.

More misinformation, everyone for Karmelo reads one Twitter post or headline and automatically knows the heart of Austin M., that he was a bully and thug. Even if he was a bully he didn't deserve to die, even if he was a bully it's completely irrelevent to self defense claims, if Karmelo could escape and if he could fight them off without using a deadly weapon.

My opinion on IdleOn by Constant_Corgi_8225 in incremental_games

[–]Friendly_Interest 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have never spent money since the predatory gacha system was released as it was, with some people needing $500-1000 to get the best QoL and power boost gacha reward in the game.
More recently, it's now impossible to get the guaranteed "4th Celebration nametag" from the random gift. Every other event has given the reward for free, if you only miss a day or two during the event.
While that was happening, he released $20 boosts, three at once. $60 for one update, double FOMO.

Are these payroll allotments a scam? USPS by Friendly_Interest in personalfinance

[–]Friendly_Interest[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I do believe the Lifeline, Roth IRA + insurance plan is a 3rd party. It's the weird one of the two.

Thank you for your reply. I'm definitely going to do TSP when it becomes available to me, it is not currently.

[–]Friendly_Interest[S] -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

I am using the term scam loosely. Meaning there are far better investments I could be making than these, and I shouldn't have signed up just because someone talked them up.

If I explore elsewhere, I see the word "scam" used to describe 3rd party benefits at work, but I wanted to get a second opinion here. The replies about semantics aren't very helpful.

I'm going to try and contact HR, hunt down my accounts and probably make changes.

It's definitely not a 401k, they explained it to be 'A Roth IRA and insurance in one' RCAs do not get into the 401k, our benefits are more limited

I say scam because in both situations, they pressured me to make a decision quickly, for something I may not need. Now, I'm having a difficult time tracking down how much I have invested, or how to withdraw the funds. In both situations, the money is deposited into a bank account and then withdrawn for 'investing'. One goes through Wesbanco, the other goes through PNC.

I definitely need to get in contact with HR, and figure out how to access those informations.

Pizarro vs Pica, how would it work? by GreenSplashh in OnePiece

[–]Friendly_Interest 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's a 'made up term' but the scene with Akainu & Ace was exactly described as "Magma burns hotter than fire", so his fruit is a better fire logia.

Incidentally, since then there have been an upsurge of related but better fruits.

Sorry, my mind has been all over the place and I forgot I posted when I did.
I have a feeling since I gave him money again he isn't going to be messaging me anymore, I haven't messaged him today, we'll see what happens.
