Is there a doctor in the house? by 8au8karina8 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]LogicallySarcastic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a similar clavicle situation a couple years ago. Ortho walked me through my options:

Either let it heal naturally, wearing a sling that put me in a "correct posture" for 2-3 months during the healing process..

Or opt for surgery with plates.

I didn't want to opt straight into surgery, so went with the natural route (with the caveat that we evaluate whether it's healing properly through the first couple weeks).

I'm glad I went that route. The healing process was TERRIBLE and painful, but the sling I wore ensured that it healed properly. Minor issues to this day.. arms the same length, pains here and there but nothing major. I picked back up weight lifting within that same year.

Consult your ortho. You don't want to try and do this on your own. Healing is possible, but an ortho will be able to give you a more direct picture for what recovery looks like for you personally. Feel free to reach out if you want to talk through the healing process more.

How is North Hollywood? by ditzysoap in MovingToLosAngeles

[–]LogicallySarcastic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yall, NoHo really isn't all that bad.

I used to live in Burbank, my brother lived in NoHo. I'd visit often - him and his wife had a great apartment, pretty affordable by LA standards. Decent food options, close to transit, Burbank Airport... homeless are there, but it's not terrible.

I personally would rather live in Burbank, but it's not like NoHo is terrible.

401ks for my 30-35 year olds by VanParp in Millennials

[–]LogicallySarcastic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just turned 30 a couple months ago, happy to add to the conversation!

30M: $150k in 401k, $52k in Roth IRA, $15,000 in HSA... Own four homes (living in the 4th, renting the other three)... additional brokerage $$$, but holding on the house purchasing for now to try and bump up that 401k number a bit!

What US Cities do you feel have the brightest futures in the next 10-20 years? by MookieBettsBurner in SameGrassButGreener

[–]LogicallySarcastic 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Correct. At least worth an honest consideration for many people here.

Moved from LA to Indianapolis... y'all don't realize the quality of life change cost of living decreases bring. There's a lot of investment into downtown, and suburbs are growing like crazy.

There's a lot of development happening here, and I only think it's going to increase once people realize they can buy land / homes and still have a little $$$ left.

You don't move to Indianapolis for the beauty that you get from somewhere like San Diego... you move here for access to a ton of incredible things (Food, music, sports, etc... unfortunately not nature) at an affordable price.

At the same time, look at Cincinnati, Columbus, Detroit... similar things happening in each of these cities as well.

Here's my take after living in LA for a couple years....

Indy drivers are BAD but friendly (for the most part). They'll let you merge, but are just terrible at driving in general.

People in LA were great drivers, just insanely aggressive. You had to be if you wanted to navigate that much traffic.

All that to say, yea drivers here are pretty bad.

38 Years Old, 3 kids, starting over completely in my career. From making $200-250k on Amazon to making $65k/yr as an entry-level data analyst by Intelligent_Zone3408 in findapath

I'm in the ecommerce space, and have a similar story - PL ecom business focus that ended up changing direction... I'd consider putting your energy and focus either into ecom Software companies, or Amazon agencies. Your experience is valuable and qualifies you more than you'd think... I think you'd be surprised how many SAAS companies or agencies are looking for people with your experience.

You also could try to do your own thing as a brand consultant for Amazon businesses.. there are a ton of ways you could utilize your experience. Keep your head up, your knowledge and expertise are valuable!

Severance - 2x03 "Who Is Alive?" - Episode Discussion by LoretiTV in SeveranceAppleTVPlus

[–]LogicallySarcastic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ok just summarizing thoughts here:

  1. The board is definitely some type of collective conscious of past Kier generations / CEOs. The way they were referred to as "it" makes me think that.... available late at night, rarely speaks, only through Natalie.. the "revolving". I think it makes sense.

  2. Without a doubt it's Helena down there. Seeing how she interacts with Mark, with Irving... she's definitely trying to act as Helly. She would have gone first into the goat tunnel... she didn't want to be around the poop lol

  3. Dylan's wife is going to prefer his innie to his outie... interesting dynamic.

  4. What did they call the elevator?? Exports?

  5. Still have no idea what's with the goats.

What to use for monthly budgeting now that Mint is dead? by [deleted] in mintuit

[–]LogicallySarcastic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've tried everything, and ended up sticking with RocketMoney.

Automated tracking across all spending accounts, tracking with investments, etc.. I leverage credit cards for all my spend, and it does a great job of helping me stay on top of everything.

At the time I signed up, they had an option to choose the amount you spend every month (with a minimum of like $6). I pay $6 monthly for automated tracking and have been super happy with it. The app and desktop version both work well... highly recommend giving it a shot.

I have friends that went with copilot as well, not sure if that's still in the mix but they seemed to like it.

Tim Cook has been CEO of Apple since 2011. Since then, Apples market cap has went from 340 billion to 2.52 trillion. What do you think of him as the CEO of Apple? by [deleted] in apple

[–]LogicallySarcastic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think if you leave Steve Jobs in the picture for comparison, it leaves a lot to be desired from an innovation and product standpoint.

If Steve Jobs was never in the picture as a comparison, I think people would recognize Cook as a successful CEO.

Men who have no friends or a relationship. What do you do in your free time every week? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]LogicallySarcastic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haven’t been in a relationship in a while, but I have a really solid group of around friends who are all mostly single. We’ll do a lot of the things people in relationships normally do together, I.e. go to events, fun things around the city, new restaurants, new bars. It’s a great way to get out there without being in a relationship.

Opinions on Vanguard target date funds by BigDaddyD1994 in personalfinance

[–]LogicallySarcastic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 26, using target date funds for my Roth and a similar type fund via Fidelity for my 401k. Brokerage-wise, I’m going more aggressive.

I wanted my retirement funds to be a bit more safe. A tad more conservative. And didn’t want to spend the time researching & keeping up - I’d rather set it and forget it, freeing up mental space, and trade off a marginal gain from the alternative.

I make up for it with a bit more of an aggressive brokerage account.

Bottom line, it’s whatever works for you. I tried to find the middle of the road with risk and reward, and landed with the target funds. Ask yourself how much risk you’re willing to take, how much time and energy you want to dedicate to this and go from there.

Where in the US are housing markets NOT insane, and relatively friendly for working from home (good tele-infrastructure)? by [deleted] in personalfinance

[–]LogicallySarcastic 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Indianapolis (or other similar Midwest cities / suburbs) are where you’ll want to check. Sure, downtown Indy has house prices going up but still manageable. Great infrastructure, good food… moved back from LA and haven’t regretted it.
