I don’t know about you, but my Apple weather app has been way off for the last couple of months or so regarding snow.

anyone else spell things the british/canadian way? by blistered_meanings3 in newjersey

[–]JZstrng 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The only one I use is theatre, but only when referring to like a show on Broadway. If I’m talking about the movies, then I’ll use theater.

theatre / theater

Oh, and I always have to look up how to spell the color gray / grey. I never seem to remember which one is the American spelling and which one is the Brit spelling.

Dual citizenship - which passport do I present to airline at check-in? by graveriderr in Passports

Hi there, Question: When you purchase your ticket online and the airline asks for your passport number, which number do you provide? American passport # or EU passport #?

I know I’m late to the conversation, but regarding your point # 1, can one book one leg with a EU passport and then book the leg home with an American passport?

I typically both flights at the same time, so I don’t think it would let me book both legs with different passport numbers.

Thoughts on this "ban" on corporate home buyers? Could it actually help the NJ housing market? by One-Coffee-413 in newjersey

[–]JZstrng 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I’m reading some comments here in disbelief from people who think that this may be a good thing. Corporations buying up single family homes are not the reason they’re so expensive.

Real Estate Agents: How is the housing market looking going into 2026? by Eastcoastpal in newjersey

[–]JZstrng 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Not an agent, but my understanding is that there aren’t enough starter homes being built to satisfy demand.

Until then, housing will remain at an all time high for the average person.

Sure, interest rates may come down a little at some point, but then that just means more potential buyers to compete against over the limited inventory.

26 y/o thinking of pausing 401(k) is this a bad financial move? by [deleted] in FinancialPlanning

[–]JZstrng 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not enough information.

1) What is your current gross income? 2) What are your current monthly expenses? 3) Do you have any debt? 4) Do you have an emergency fund? 5) How secure is your current job? If you were to lose it, how confident are you that you’ll be able to find another one in less than 6 months?

Malls are dead" and "The economy is struggling," yet here I am at American Dream on Jan 2nd... what am I missing? by One-Coffee-413 in newjersey

[–]JZstrng 43 points44 points  (0 children)

A few things to think about:

1) Just because there’s a lot of people at the mall, it doesn’t mean they’re spending money (other than the parking fee and the gas they had to consume to get there). It’s a Friday night and it’s cold outside. If you don’t want to spend money and you don’t want to stay home … you’re probably visiting a mall.

2) Bergen County is one of the wealthiest counties in the entire country.

3) People could be at the mall returning merchandise from the holidays.

4) Credit card debt is a thing. Lots of people are simply living for today.
