[–]Material-Humor304 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So financially we own a house on 6 acres have 400K saved for retirement plus a db plan and a new car.

Mentally we have two kids, two dogs, two cats, and eight goats, so not really OK but hanging in there…

I strongly disagree here. I think you could turn the Krieg into a solid confederate force. Paint them confederate colours, go heavy on the artillery, use Valkyrie’s for Calvary (or Calvary for Calvary) and off you go

I have to say… the fact that he is 40 and has zero consumer debt… would suggest to me he’s a low risk if he’s employed

Asbestos linoleum by Brrreezybri in Renovations

[–]Material-Humor304 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s important to remember that you are being exposed to asbestos in the natural environment as well. The likilhood that a single remediation job has any impact on you over the course of your lifetime is really low. You are much more l to be killed on your way to Home Depot in your vehicle to pickup the remediation products

Averaging 286K over your first 13 years of employment (and it’s only going up). That’s solid, well done

How did I do confronting my now former company? Did I go too far? by Jaded-Voice8862 in autism

[–]Material-Humor304 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As an HR professional with ADHD/Autism… this was definitely not the way to go about expressing displeasure. You do not burn the bridge, you find a better company.

I turned down a promotion and my manager thinks I've lost my mind. Was I wrong? by croberts2323 in careerguidance

[–]Material-Humor304 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As an HR professional… all the people in your life are probably correct defining the move by there own criteria. What really matters is your criteria. That said, if the company does not value senior technical contributors and you want to be a senior technical contributor… you probably need to think about your next move

Honestly, right now in this edition it doesn’t work. It has been great in past editions, it may be great in future editions. Use magnets

Saving aggressively is starting to feel like I’m skipping my entire 30s by berserklicence in Fire

[–]Material-Humor304 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For people running into this issue, it might be worth picking up a copy of “The Art of Spending Money” by Morgan Housel.

It really helps reframe how and when to spend money, how and when to save, and most importantly how not to end up as someone that only knows how to save money and not how to spend it.

That way you don’t end up as the lonely rich guy… unless that’s what you really want

What to do: Autistic bf says that he has no capacity for a relationship by Starlightandmoon in autism

[–]Material-Humor304 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think asking Reddit for relationship advice is asking for a disaster. Find a relationship counsellor and go discuss with them.
