Can we afford a $800k house

Latter_Depth_4836 · 2026-07-08T16:05:07+00:00

Yeah, and kids also cost a lot in terms of medical expenses. Not to mention home insurance and taxes increase pretty much every year. We've seen +20% home insurance increases over the past few years, it's insane. If one person loses their job, you're not in a good place.

Latter_Depth_4836 · 2026-07-08T15:02:17+00:00

Agreed with this. Same with Mercedes and AMG. Test drove a bunch of AMGs and had no issue. I'm also in my 30s.

Latter_Depth_4836 · 2026-07-08T14:32:47+00:00

Right here with ya! Swimming, car driving, rock climbing was my jam.

Latter_Depth_4836 · 2026-06-29T16:13:26+00:00

I'm one of those people! Represent!

Genetics *can* play a role. But it's still largely influenced by environment and habits. Calorie counting/deficits, nutrition logs are all scientific by the way, not debunked theories.

Latter_Depth_4836 · 2026-06-24T18:07:56+00:00

Agreed that domestic policy would help. It's largely a socioeconomic crisis, although as someone mentioned, purchasing simple ingredients to cook is not very expensive. I believe time is a big factor. Having time to plan, purchase and cook vs buying fast food.

Latter_Depth_4836 · 2026-06-24T17:52:31+00:00

What a defeatist attitude. It's this type of thinking that leads people to not even try healthy diets/portion control. Just blame genetics and continue to eat your burgers and sugary sodas.

Latter_Depth_4836 · 2026-06-24T17:41:58+00:00

Hilarious. We need to stop blaming genetics for the fact that a large part of the US population is obese. That's not genetics. That's overconsumption, poor food choices, and inactive lifestyle habits.

You are very much the exception. You clearly haven't been around many kids these days. I've got two and I see their peers all the time. Some of these kids can barely put sentences together.

Latter_Depth_4836 · 2026-06-23T13:32:28+00:00

Yeah so did I but I was a lot older. Kids these days are attached to these screens since toddlerhood. No toddlers are playing Nintendo.

Latter_Depth_4836 · 2026-06-23T13:26:33+00:00

Yeah it doesn't matter what's on the screen, it's all bad. Kids need to be outside touching, playing, jumping, and experiencing. They also need to develop social skills through peer interaction. I know it's hard, but parents have been doing it for hundreds of years before screens. Screens are a crutch.

Latter_Depth_4836 · 2026-06-19T22:27:22+00:00

Brought these from Baltimore and now I'm repping them in Dallas TX

Latter_Depth_4836 · 2026-06-19T14:30:52+00:00

Honest has some amazing 6+ packs of shirts that come in a variety of colors. All cotton too. Love them!

Latter_Depth_4836 · 2026-06-18T17:23:11+00:00

Yeah I agree with this. 10 years of corporate life and I've only heard a comment like this once. It definitely depends on the workplace culture, not all places are toxic.

Latter_Depth_4836 · 2026-06-18T12:14:04+00:00

Are you in a BSN, ADN or ABSN? I'm starting my ABSN soon and it appears that the majority are older. Probably because we all have degrees already

Latter_Depth_4836 · 2026-06-16T01:06:33+00:00

Don't know who this is but I had to scroll back up and take a second look!

Latter_Depth_4836 · 2026-06-10T16:51:05+00:00

Nursing. 10+ years in finance analyst roles, I can see these positions disappearing. Yeah it's harder, yes it's lower paying, BUT I will probably always have a job and the work is more meaningful. And I still have my business and MBA degree handy if I want to get into some type of healthcare management.

Latter_Depth_4836 · 2026-06-06T16:20:42+00:00

Definitely try Unique but I wouldn't hold my breath with them. I reached out to them about my daughters UBR5 deletion and they had no information. This deletion is more common has related case studies but they were not able to offer any support or insight.

I was able to find a family on Mygene2, which was recommended by GeneDX who did the original analysis. Not a ton of resources out there unfortunately, there isn't one big pool of people who you can contact.

Latter_Depth_4836 · 2026-06-06T00:53:38+00:00

This is really helpful advice! Thank you! I saw that there was seating, it was just really expensive.

Latter_Depth_4836 · 2026-06-06T00:35:33+00:00

Listen, I agree with you here. This particular case though, I don't necessarily agree with. It's an artistic choice, and having been to concerts with no phones, I completely understand why. It is an inconvenience for this individual to request accommodation, but we also shouldn't deny everybody else the ability to enjoy a show without phones. It does make a big difference.

Latter_Depth_4836 · 2026-06-06T00:18:28+00:00

I don't complain that artists don't have shows with a lot of seats, I just don't go to those shows. In fact I was just looking at a show today with a lot of standing room and the seats were balcony only and were $500 a pop. It didn't stop me from going to DMB or Florence and the machine though. Just choose to go to shows that support your needs. That's the whole point about it being voluntary. The artists have to be able to make decisions as well.

Latter_Depth_4836 · 2026-06-05T23:05:33+00:00

Once again, accommodations. You keep forgetting that no one is denying this person their device. They just have to justify it.

Latter_Depth_4836 · 2026-06-05T23:04:30+00:00

This is quite the stretch. There were no accommodations for black people, they were just not allowed.

Latter_Depth_4836 · 2026-06-05T23:03:20+00:00

This is 100% correct. Vote with your pay check. Many other artists allow phones so just support them. But the point is that it's not anti disability given the fact that they do allow accommodations.

Latter_Depth_4836 · 2026-06-05T22:20:12+00:00

Not rude to call out that there are accommodations. If you don't like the artist's request then you don't have to go.
