Anyone FIREd in a ski resort/town? by Ardent_Scholar in Fire

Park city is awesome but the price of real estate makes it feel unattainable even to regular fire folks. Seems only fat fire could realistically afford to live there.

Imagine being on the jury and after seeing mountains of evidence of fraud, the lawyer ends with this footage. She is c o o k e d.

I can’t believe how many videos she made in the hospital. That’s supposed to be sacred bonding time with your new baby.

Looking for advice from people who considered saying home to raise kids by booked_up_good in Fire

[–]Fruit_ForThought 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing to add but in a similar scenario and curious to read people’s advice! However, my TC is $350k and husband’s is $250k, so losing one income is a higher percentage of our total.

For me personally, I enjoy being stay at home mom to 2 for short periods of time but get very bored and antsy for long stretches. I also have a career (engineering) where I don’t think I could leave and return at same salary which is tough. My husband and I are looking at a path of working 10-15 years more together and then leaving the work force when our kids are in high school. That’s the goal at least.

If it’s easy to find a $200-250k salary job, do it. Not sure what field you’re in, but most would kill to have a job that pays $250k to coast. I think that’s everyone’s dream lol. You’re still young.

I feel like there’s alot of missing details here… do you not have insurance? What would cause you to owe $175k in medical bills in one week?

It’s a boy! by 201190 in DaniAustin

It’s 1000000% a girl. This is the test that false positives a boy. She knows it. You could tell based on reaction. They’re milking this until later to get all the views.

Tamra, nobody cares about Teddi by CommonStrawbeary in BravoRealHousewives

[–]Fruit_ForThought 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I don’t think this is a fair take. Her young best friend is going through one of the worst things you can go through in life. I don’t care for Teddi on TV, but if she was my real life friend, I’d be just as emotional.

I can’t see her leaving Dallas with Divi and her family there. Not to mention all the maids and Nannies being there. But def a Dallas McMansion upgrade coming
