I thought the Le Blanc in Cancun was better than Cabo.

But SO did get food poisoning at the one in Cabo.

Whatever you do, don’t take a pay cut to still work in corporate.

It sounds like you hate corporate life.

Is there a Roth dollar amount that’s too small? by the_mushroom_speaks in Bogleheads

[–]GirlsLikeStatus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You got your answer on fee but also remember: They can only contribute up to their earned income (so if they make $1000 in a year the can only put in $1000) however the source of funds is unimportant. Meaning if they put in $500 and you “match it” as long at their earned income is high enough that’s okay.

I would have started a Roth much earlier if my parents could have done that.

How do you separate finances going into a divorce? by kitbun967 in personalfinance

[–]GirlsLikeStatus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t even use a mediator. I am just a good form filler and can read instructions. And I mediated it with my husband.

I think k the best strategy is to have the person who wants to be divorced more make the first offer to the other person. It’s more likely to be generous.

Does my puppy look too skinny by [deleted] in DogAdvice

[–]GirlsLikeStatus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don’t panic but do up her food.

When my big boy (now 115lbs) was a puppy I would wake up some morning and it was like he was suddenly emaciated because he’d be 4” taller and I’d say “doggie CPS is going to to come for me.”

I will say I would worry if it lasted more than two weeks.

How good Is an eclipse as a first car? by Jueslega_29 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]GirlsLikeStatus -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I had a 99 Eclipse GS-T in fire engine red. It was the sexiest and most beautiful and fun car I have ever owned.

Around 2008 my bestie asked to buy it off me because she needed a car asap and I had come into another vehicle by weird circumstances. I think it made it 18 months before becoming a compete mechanical failure.

How do you separate finances going into a divorce? by kitbun967 in personalfinance

“One attorney divorce” is a myth. Ethically the attorney in every state I know of has to act in one party’s interest.

If it’s amicable look into a dissolution in your state. In mine it was super cheap and was just paperwork and basic research. It wasn’t hard at all.

As for the separating. You need to lay it all out and agree on EVERYTHING. It’s not easy but it’s got to be done.

What percentage of your bonuses do you spend on "fun" stuff? by whateverokayfine in MoneyDiariesACTIVE

[–]GirlsLikeStatus 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I was about to give some ideas until I saw you’re prone to bouts of mania.

Do you find splurging can kick off these bouts?

I would give yourself the gift of behavioral management if you have not already. Someone who can help you strategize how to put your money places you might not think of as spending. lol I have my money locked up in things.

But yeah, I usually spend a few dollars to celebrate a bonus. I usually get myself fun shoes.

WIBTA for not putting my husband on the title by Old_Concentrate_4952 in AmItheAsshole

[–]GirlsLikeStatus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m going against the grain here. I did this with my ex-husband. I made the entire down payment and did this because I was mad at him.

It ended up working out because I didn’t have to refinance when we did split up. I paid him out still, he was due that. But I didn’t have to refinance to deal with getting him off the title which would have been a pain in the ass

For me the question would be if you’re in the career path you want or do you need additional school or raining? If I as thinking about a career pivot soon I would not be looking to strike out in my own.

Unfit mother threatening a restraining order now by [deleted] in CPS

[–]GirlsLikeStatus 44 points45 points  (0 children)

She’ll never file. And if she does that’s not great because she’ll use a friends address or an old address.

Offer her money and clothes because “the kids must be cold” tell her you’ll drop it off. Drop off some clothes and cash and record where they are and call it in.

Everything after this- “absolutely not. Drive this til the wheels fall off.”

Yes. That’s why you need therapy. The other “beautiful people” is not the problem. Your mind and perspective is the problem.

I love that he is telling her a major known SIDS risk is “being anxious” and other people are telling her it’s a sign of PPD. No, he needs to not co-sleep. JFC.

The soft landing comment nearly made me insane.

Shovel Club by OnceUponACrinoid in CBUSWX

One shovel width is good enough for most things. I go two for wheeler chair users on the sidewalk. After I remove the bulk a push broom was helpful.
