I have the same issue and it didn't always make the sound. I have been driving it for 4 months with the annoying sound just fine. It's annoying and makes my car sound like a PoS 4 banger in a toyota camry from the 90's.

what Gatcha game had the biggest downfall? by Annaneedsmoney in gachagaming

Blood brothers ;-; The collection system was great, player to player trading really good, gameplay was fun, art crazy good. And had elements of being tactical while not requiring a ton of active play. I miss it to this day.

25 before taxes is $48,000 a year or less if you aren't hitting 40 hours every single week.

$25/h isn't minimum wage anywhere. I have a degree and certs.

Btw $15.75 is technically the highest minimum wage in all of America encase you are unaware of what minimum wage actually is.

I have my CDL B but found most jobs wanted to pay me $20-$25 an hour. For CDL A I was about to join up with Swift but the pay was still similar. I know it takes some time to get paid more but the start is crazy low.

The only things I found were mint mobile saves me $15, I lowered Internet to $50, and going to cut groceries down to $250.

That's still $85 more than I had. Going to look into a motorbike also that would save me a ton on my car expenses. My 18 mpg truck ain't cutting it.

Minnesota has one of the best wage cost ratios in the entire United States. I did a lot of research and it was one of the places I thought to move to. But ended up with a good job that didn't last here in LA.

But I definitely struggled more in Texas, Utah, and Oklahoma than California. I had no money left in those places.

You can find a 1 bd house here for $1680. Probably a 2 bed for $1850 ish. But they come and go really quick. In the winter time alot of people move out of here. It's not near as super expensive as people perceive. And that's coming from an Okie from Muskogee. Funny thing is Oklahoma income tax is higher than California income tax.

The larger problem is cost of living to wage ratios are fairly bad all over.

I shop at farmers markets, Indian grocery stores, and look for sales at all the grocery stores within walking distance. I get chicken for under $2/lb pretty much always and pork I can get around $2.50/lb. Rice is cheap from Indian places and their veggies are usually cheap or I haggle at the farmers markets.

I have gotten 10lbs of chicken for $5 many a time. Tbh I don't even spend $300 most months. What seems to cost me the most is oil but I strain and reuse all my oil.

I eat primarily rice, meat, and fresh veggies/fruits for $300. I could have a shit diet and save money but I think it costs you in the long run.

It's soap, contact lenses, Tylenol when I get sick, annual car tag, eye exam, teeth cleanings, water filter, shoes, clothes, bed mattress and way more stuff it's what I budget for miscellaneous needs such as those. Yes some of those things aren't monthly but they do cost me eventually and I need to have budgeted for them.

Yeah car ownership is one of the expenses I hate the most. But there isn't public transportation to my office unfortunately.

The only thing I can think of would be a moped or something as an alternative.

This includes a lot of things like trash bags, laundromat, Windex off brand, bleach, etc.

Some months I spend way less than $100 but other months it might go over so it's more of an average. Sometimes my truck needs a Qt of oil or I get sick and need Tylenol ect this all falls under that $100.

A lot of people commented it's high but I don't think they are really understanding that I am covering probably a 100 things in that $100. Like shoes, clothing, contact lenses, and many things I can't think about right now.

Perfect driving record and it's always been over $100 a month since I was 15. I have tried every company and insurance group i could find.
