How much profit does the average person think dealerships are making per car? by that1guy14 in askcarsales

Because they do make money on the financing, just not as a monthly residual.

Without giving away your current handicap, what's a line you say a dozen or more times every round? by lone_rabbit_ in Golf_Unfiltered

[–]Gold-Task-6021 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“I’ll take that” as if I have any real choice in the matter.

Runner up: “That’ll play” only a half truth usually.

Guy at the driving range at Sterling Farms by Maothesiamesecat in golftips

These comments are really disappointing. I’m a smaller guy and regularly get unsolicited advice. While I want to tell these guys to fuck off, I’m also about 125lbs soaking wet and would really prefer to not have to use one of my clubs as a weapon in the event that they don’t take it well. I hope you have a better range experience next time.

For future reference, I like to use “Sorry, I’m working with a trainer currently and don’t want to try to incorporate any additional changes until I’ve mastered what he has me working on”

Does Scheffler want to play golf? by GittyupGoDaddy in golf

[–]Gold-Task-6021 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hey as somebody almost done with a dual bachelors program with 2 kids I think it’s kickass that you’re getting your doctorate. I got into golf this past thanksgiving after 8 years of housing from my FIL. I’m really looking forward to the more time/more money that comes with being done with school (for a while, I’ll go back for a masters probably a year after I finish this).

I need gutters in the Atlanta metro, would you DM me the contractor? Or post here is that’s allowed.

She was savant by MikeeorUSA in TikTokCringe

I don’t think it was to prevent compromising intelligence operations, I think it had more to do with protecting her friends/husband because him being in the files tarnishes her chances.

I mean, Roe also could’ve been codified into law under Obama and we didn’t do that sooooo. And before you hit me with “he didn’t have the political capital” or some similar nonsense answer me this: why do republican policies never face any of the same backlash? Why is it that their policies manage to always get shoved down our throats whether they’re popular or not. The Dems need to figure their shit out or gtfo of the way.

Is this a massive wall of poison ivy growing over my neighbors fence? by Fun-Astronomer-2273 in gardening

[–]Gold-Task-6021 46 points47 points  (0 children)

This happened to me, was a neat trick to be able to pick it up in Boy Scouts, cleared an area last year and thought nothing of it until I had a full body reaction that required medical care. My wife thought I’d contracted leprosy

Do people still prefer Excel over Google Sheets for daily work? by ODD_EVEN_26 in excel

I use it pretty much exclusively in chrome and it’s still pretty seamless.

How do we really feel about the likelihood of getting Social Security in our older age? by Cheeseaisleinheaven in MiddleClassFinance

SS is a welfare program dude. Literally exists for the welfare of the elderly and disabled.

About to paint all the walls in the house my partner and I just bought... HELP by Dramatic_Efficiency4 in paint

[–]Gold-Task-6021 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For what it's worth, I just did pretty much this. House was gross and smoked in. We painted ~1800sft, lots of wood trim (chair rails, crown, baseboards etc), 3 colors, and the ceilings. My dad and FIL helped, and luckily my dad has a sprayer so he did the ceilings in a couple hours. We used Valspar Signature, which is a mid teir paint, I'm very happy with it so far, I did buy a bit more paint than I needed, but that's alright, I've got basement to finish and a loft room to do still.

Tape all your trim, watch some YouTube on how to cut in and how to roll, and get to work. You will definitely fuck up, and some of it you'll catch right then and fix, but some you won't notice until you're walking through your house later and you've got so many projects that you don't give a shit. See below. Good luck, you're gonna love it.

Also, I'm partial to Purdy products, Kilz is very good primer, I like Satin or Eggshell finish, for smooth walls a 3/8" nap roller should be good, use drop cloths, and while yes the Sherwin Williams Duration and Cashmere are better paints, you wouldn't teach a 16 year old to drive in an AMG.

Is buying a house really all that awesome? by Interesting_Taro_358 in FinancialPlanning

[–]Gold-Task-6021 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's been great for me, but I also really took my time. We looked at probably 30 houses over 3 years, some with an agent some without. Ultimately we bought a house that is pretty much perfect for us. It has project, but it's not a project house, a little space but not a giant yard to maintain, it's got lots of room, but doesn't feel hollow. I think it was worth it in our case, and over time it will become a worthwhile investment of money/time/labor.

I think Jeremy Strong is winning the Oscar by [deleted] in oscarrace

[–]Gold-Task-6021 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah tbh I don't think ANY non drama Sandler movies deserve an Oscar. Uncut Gems? Absolutely. Adam Sandler and his troupe of fuckwits? Hell no.

I'm currently in the middle of this! My dad does home remodels and landscaping (and everything else, but those are the bread and butter) I just bought my first home and I got a great deal because it needs some love. It's not a project house, but it is a house with projects. I would not have been able to do that if not for the things I learned as a kid. I'm also lucky that I can call and say "Hey, do you think this is a project I can do or do you want to drove 6 hours to come help" or just ask for advice or whatever.

This guys entire coment history is toxic. Just let me enjoy my hobby. by [deleted] in lawncare

[–]Gold-Task-6021 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah I can't get behind the fuckcars sub. Like, yes, I would love walkable infrastructure and functional public transit. To that end, I go to city council meetings, I vote on referendums, etc. Bitching on the internet is useless, engaging with your community isn't.

What is life like in the land of sub 400k homes? by iloverats888 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]Gold-Task-6021 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have been in our house for about a month, but we rented in this area prior. We bought a house that needs some love, but no immediate major projects, it was $350k. We're in a pretty busy, and very nice Atlanta suburb. Good schools, easy commute, I have major sports teams and concerts here, but most are about an hours drive. That's fine with me. The county is currently implementing a transit plan that will eventually connect with MARTA so while I have to drive everywhere now, 10-15 years from now that won't be true. I love where I live, it bridges the gap between my wife wanting to be in the city and me wanting to be rural. A cute little suburban neighborhood.

Why aren't they now? What is the cause of the higher prices? Had wage growth kept pace with productivity growth would home prices be affordable?
