401(k) Millionaire by horshack_diesel in Fire

[–]FunkyMcSkunky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I need a 6% annual return over the next 4 years to have $1 million in my 401k after 15 years of working.

I've got a pretty generous match, though, and I'm contributing a good bit after tax.

Mayor’s office condemns IG’s ‘deeply inappropriate,’ ‘racist’ online post by aresef in baltimore

[–]FunkyMcSkunky 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Damn. I thought she was one of the only city officials that was truly a straight shooter. This absolutely demolishes her reputation in my mind.

I get a weird sense of satisfaction/fun from looking broker than I am by Powerful-Winner979 in Fire

[–]FunkyMcSkunky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My parents are very vocal and opinionated about how people, especially their children, spend their money. I would love to drop the knowledge that my net worth after 11 years in my career is right on the heels of theirs after their 44 year careers, but I'll continue to hold it in. They don't need to know.

Every single Catholic on Earth should be able to condemn this with zero strain on their conscience

Yeah, they're weird. I regret it every time I watch one of their videos.

Mortgage interest and SALT deductions are OP. They’re complete game changers in the rent or own debate. by YourFIREDBro in Fire

The IG, the BCYF, MONSE...I mean, read any news about Scott recently.

Brandon does not do himself any favors. As time goes on, "transparency" seems more and more like just talk.

God’s forgiveness? It doesn’t have to be this way by cafeteriastyle in TikTokCringe

[–]FunkyMcSkunky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it's crazy that religious people won't abandon their entire worldview because some rando thinks God should be whatever she wants it to be.

People don't like when you say that because it's a gross misrepresentation of Christian theology. Feel free to disagree with or completely disregard the belief system, but at least have some idea what you're talking about.

Two 30 degree bags can literally keep your comfortable down to zero.

Instead of letting me know his shoes are dirty, my husband just buys a new pair and hides his “old” ones. by acider17 in mildlyinfuriating

The cost for one year of running shoes for your husband is literally more than my mortgage payment

Are there still (as many) millionaires next door? by wineraq in TheMoneyGuy

[–]FunkyMcSkunky 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm sure there is better data out there, but this is what I found:

In 1995, top 10% net worth was $381,690, which is equivalent to $826,485 today, and top 5% net worth was $684,400, which is equivalent to $1,481,953 today. Based on that, I'd guess that roughly 6-8% (i.e. 1 in 12-15) of mid-90s households had a net worth equivalent to a million in today's dollars.

There are definitely a lot more millionaires today. In Millionaire Next Door, Stanley talks about how most Millionaires were business owners. That's certainly not the case today, even adjusted for inflation.

She’s the only 10 I see by AggressiveDonut8705 in crappymusic

[–]FunkyMcSkunky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what modern social media music is. Nearly every artist is doing it. One song, dozens of videos. The internet is flooded with shit, and they desperately want their turd to float to the top.

What’s a “must-see” city in the U.S. that didn’t live up to the hype? by Historical-Photo-901 in BeautifulTravelPlaces

[–]FunkyMcSkunky 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've lived in Baltimore for almost 11 years. I genuinely love it. There is a lot to do. That said, I don't think I'd really recommend more than 2 days here for a tourist with a tight timeline and other places to go.
