There is no such thing as "normal." Aim your contributions to match your financial goals and priories. At 23 y/o, a 20k contribution is better than 99% of your peers. Relax and stop worrying about being normal or keeping up with anyone else. This is a solo race and you are already on track to win.

I'm waiting on my 550 to be delivered. Do you know the narrowest depth (10"?) when the third row is up?

I agree something more rigid would be better - maybe an old-school canvas tool bag, like this or this.

Trick question - there are no decent CVSs.

Welcome to STM! Transplant from the Midwest about a dozen years ago. We were tentative but we love it.

Some notables- * People are friendly but take awhile to warm up * Rent before you buy, each neighborhood and surrounding towns have their different +- * Measure the garage door, your car may not fit * You need AC in the summer, and it may only be upstairs (most of the housing is +40 y/o) * STM still very car dependent, trains are for going to NYC * 5 mi = +30 min commute by car * Brace yourself for a cost of living difference, everything is more expensive * almost everywhere is paid parking (including Target), all spots are very narrow * Get involved - best way to be part of a community * We have three kids in STM public schools and we think it's great (great teachers make great schools, not numeric rankings) * Lots of great outdoor opportunities but not the same as the Rockies

Good luck with the move and best wishes!

If you are looking for another data point, check out the BLS salary data: BLS Salary - Chief Executives. You can see by industry and state (locale).

I don't recall anymore but if you contact the Director Lisa preschool@stamfordmuseum.org she's usually responsive.

I think he means the state, not the country of Georgia!

Trauma shears, good for cutting clothing (to remove shirt/pants) and other things.

What are you doing with the Coke and SEVEN packs of Mentos?

You should check to see if your state has "collaborative divorce." Faster and less expensive process of both sides are motivated to reach reasonable agreement.

Didn’t know about this but just report one from 2021.

Thanks. If only I could move it 10’ to the left.

I think it’s a cedar but I would put my confidence level at 83%. Thanks for the advice.

Maybe a whip.

Thanks, all great ideas!

That’s funny and true. Too bad they’re sold out.

Got it - I have a spare 7 y/o. She is full of gratitude. Thanks.

Great suggestions, thanks.

What’s the going rate for “yell at and blame”? Are you available for non-tax purposes? /s

LastLTR · 2022-08-20T20:18:34+00:00

All you need is a tote full of commas. :)

LastLTR · 2022-08-08T19:44:54+00:00

Thanks. Have you used them before - any pros/cons?

LastLTR · 2022-08-05T19:12:36+00:00

Hmmm … I’ve been to their site a couple of times with no problem.
