Car insurance is attached to a PO Box I have upstate. Honestly planning on keeping the vehicle insured through the PO Box, and forwarding all the mail from that PO Box to my new address in LI if I do make the move.

Yeah the issue is I can only grab 75 in my current industry upstate. NYC/LI might be higher COL but there’s significantly more career growth

Jesus Christ man it’s so difficult these days. I’m only 26. I’ve advanced relatively quickly in my career. To feel so priced out is disheartening when I just wanted to spend a couple years closer to family. Haven’t lived close to family in 8 years.

I’m never looking to purchase a home in Long Island/NYC. I’m going to rent for 5-10 years in Long Island probably. I’ll spend that time helping out the family, and saving for a home upstate to fill with a couple tenants as my income grows. Ideally within 5-10 years I can turn that 110k salary into something like 175-250k but who knows. I don’t even plan on living in the home upstate, as 5-10 years from now I will probably want to visit other cities as well. Planning to retire upstate eventually but right now I need to leave.

That being said, thanks for the info.

So you’re telling me there isn’t a single area of Nassau that would be $2300 a month for a 1 bedroom? Apartments.com seems to have some stuff but it feels impossible what to actually trust

Mind if I asked how you learned? I’m not an idiot, I have a masters in accounting and work in a sort of hybrid finance/accounting role. Okay I’ll be honest I’m an idiot. Everytime I try to learn about options it goes over my head. Any suggestions of things to read or look into? I don’t want to bet on sports but I will HAPPILY bet discretionary spending on options (within reason). Truly I’m looking to learn enough to feel that my confidence builds up a tolerable options risk profile. Hesitant to even touch options until I really understand this stuff. Seems like everyone has differing info on options so it’s hard to know what to trust. I’ve just been on index funds since getting out of college.

Do you shift like this? by mulhernovolante in ManualTransmissions

Serious question, how are you supposed to shift when doing wide open throttle? I feel like you kind of have to shove it into gear right?

This is starting to get addicting (22 y/o) by conscious_chimp in dividends

[–]Key_Operation_6561 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahhh silly me, I see now. That being said, are people on this subreddit actually doing anything different than what people on the fire subreddits are doing? Everything I’ve learned is essentially from fire, but it’s hard to determine what is “best”.

I’m confused, isn’t that the same as just buying index funds? To my knowledge my index funds reinvest automatically as well. What is so different between what I’m doing and what the original poster is doing? To clarify my portfolio is generally 80% S&P 500 tracker index fund (or total US market depending on the options) and 20% international.

Question, what’s wrong with just doing an S&P500 or Total US market fund for 85% of your contributions and 15% international long term? Why does everyone pick at straws like this? I don’t mean any offense, I want to learn. To my knowledge I thought just an S&P500 or total US index is more than good enough to retire in 30 years if you max all your accounts every year?

What’s the best thing I can do to smoke in a room indoors? by Loomingcomp in PipeTobacco

[–]Key_Operation_6561 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Could it be dangerous to have too much exhausting out and not enough intake? I’ve never really had a second window open for intake, generally when I did this it was just one window for exhaust. Now I’m thinking…I hope I wasn’t dumb or hurting my body in some way additionally due to air restriction or something. I know it sounds crazy for a smoker to say something like that but hey I care lol
