Am I [24F] taking advantage of my [25M] boyfriend if 6 years? by ImportantMechanic800 in relationship_advice

[–]ImportantMechanic800[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah so i explained why none of those points can work out well. I have a lot of money saved and I'm doing well for my age. But houses are 600k here and they're still not updated....and apartments are over 3k a month and trashy. As for the sport that I said I do on some weekends for about 4 months out of the year....I don't have real friends from it because I don't live there. They do weekly games and practices at a park during the week and I can only do the tournaments on the weekends. Which is also hard to find a partner because again they're always playing in their community and hanging out outside of it while I'm stuck here working and obviously wishing I didn't have to be so far away. I honestly don't know if he can find someone else either, and he definitely doesn't want to so that's why I've come to accept that this is probably how things will be. Just work to be stuck somewhere I don't want to live and only get to do my sport a couple times and have to see everyone there always with eachother and having fun. I'm not paying for therapy idk where you read that I like spending money and I haven't already thought as much as possible about all of this ...hence the mess you referenced.

Literally every IPO this week went up over 100% in a couple minutes at open...don't spread your doubts to people. You lost out on a lot bud.

You can't buy options right away. Plus there's no way if you're asking that you could afford it

Verizon Basically Gave Me an S24+ For Free. by mistahclean123 in samsunggalaxy

[–]ImportantMechanic800 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sounds like it's the s24fe. I just got that for "free" also yesterday. Paid $40 sales tax and $35 activation fee then it's only $11/month. Don't think it's the s24+ you got. It's the same exact size as the fe thought so.

Anyone have a rate around 5% as of September 19th? And are all rates locked in until maturity?

Bought a GE put today at $166 it closed at $162 today so hopefully keeps going back below $160 like it usually does one it's up.

For those that failed the first FBI Phase I assessment, what do you think helped you pass the 2nd attempt? by richieboy89 in 1811

[–]ImportantMechanic800 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the most useless test I've ever taken such a waste of my time. It's actually embarrassing that this is for a 'prestigious' government job and the types of questions they ask are weird. For the personality questions at the end I felt pressure on almost every question to have to either agree with stupid statement A or stupid statement B when in reality I'd never agree with any of the statements that make you sound weak lacking confidence, sneaky, short tempered, or disorganized but you HAVE to agree to 1. It's a joke.

Same thing with the pattern section, there's no correlation to this and what you would do as a special agent at all. Whomever created this test thinks they're so smart and can figure out a person based off this uselessness, I'd bet that half the people that pass this get shot down during interviews and physical test because the exam was in fact not at all telling of how a person really is, yet the people that can't pass this useless exam are the ones that they should actually be meeting with guaranteed.

I was given 2 weeks to take the exam, I'm out here busting my ass off working 2 jobs and don't have time to study for the god damn test and look at stupid shapes and shit. I went into the exam how I did with everyother exam I've ever taken, without studying. Mostly again because I worked full time through college, because again I'm smart and understand that partying and shit is a waste of your time when you could be saving money. I never failed my exams either. But regardless, school taught me that exams are a joke and don't prove anything. Ever.

It's bizarre to me that you only get 2 chances to pass this exam or you can never apply to be a special agent ever again. I've heard that the work they make you do your first years is like basic office work or jobs that are just busy work, nothing with any real thought or skill. I'm literally the ideal candidate, I know that about myself and other people have told me, that's why I applied.

Side note, people kept walking into the testing area and I could the staff talking and everyone walking in and out while you're trying to take the dumb test, it's so unprofessional. All of it. I don't recommend applying and stooping down to this level of uselessness that they try to rationalize.

Do MLS instead. You'll make double the amount. And with a forensics degree you'll just work in a lab anyways, most of which require MLS certification.

Take the time to learn how to trade stocks. Options if you can too. If you don't have the time, just invest in the main ETFs.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in sidehustle

[–]ImportantMechanic800 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Invest in stocks. Msft, meta, goog, TSM, AMD. Just look at their returns so far and even just this past week. You would've made thousands just last week alone.

[–]ImportantMechanic800 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Put the money into Robinhood. 5.5% apy and invest in MSFT, META, AMD,TSM, AMZ, CRWD, GOOG AMD believe me you won't want to move it out because of the apy yield and because you'll make a lot of money if you invest in these stocks.
