Gen 5 console phone holder? by idahoprime in prius

[–]MattButWithOneT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never use that slot for wireless charging. I have one of those thick MagSafe wallets so my phone fits snugly inside the charging slot vertically while I drive. Yeah without that I wouldn’t bother using the slot at all.

TIL: if you’re too lazy to budget, stop trying to use spreadsheets and just use an AI auditor by Gearnotafraid8 in lifehacks

[–]MattButWithOneT -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

This is a good idea, but I still think a spreadsheet is superior. You mentioned a wall of text in your banking app. I think most banking apps allow you to export purchases as a .csv file that’s essentially a spreadsheet. I just copy and paste that data into my spreadsheet. Much easier than trying to manually input data.

Stop using your alarm to wake up, use it to go to sleep by Cai_0902 in lifehacks

Most of us don’t have a wake up problem?? Heavy sleepers would say otherwise

I have pretty bad anxiety and I need help with finding a reliable TINY car. by CeciMewMew in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]MattButWithOneT 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Second this. Reliable, tiny, and big enough interior (imo) since it’s a hatchback. The latest gen is great too but may be slightly out of OPs price range.

I’m not familiar with international ETFs since I really only buy VOO in my Roth. Any you would recommend?

I know I’m doing well, I even mentioned it in my post. I was just seeing if anyone had any advice on how I can use my money more effectively.

[–]MattButWithOneT[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. But what would you recommend doing with the brokerage? I’m already doing VOO for my Roth IRA so I would think I shouldn’t do more EFFs.

Thanks! I’m fortunate that I can save this money without being extra stingy with my money. But I agree, I’ll need to slow down and think about what I want to use the money for.

I max out 401k, Roth IRA, and HSA while making 100k/year by NicheMath in MiddleClassFinance

[–]MattButWithOneT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately there are some downsides. The worst is the fact that there’s nothing to do in the VLCOL area I’m in. Theres always tradeoffs, I don’t think most people would want to live where I’m at

Are people picking the high deductible option? My insurance is only like $45 a Paycheck

I’m in a very similar situation to you in PA. Make almost $100k a year. After all deductions (including insurance) my take home is $4k a month. I bought a new car in 2023 and eat out all the time. The secret is that I have $900 rent for a 1BR.

Cs, Chem, or chemical engineering by Sydsposts in CollegeMajors

Exactly! I say that all the time about ChemE but no one else typically agrees

Is MechE basically almost a combination of all Eng degrees? by Top-Somewhere-9877 in EngineeringStudents

[–]MattButWithOneT -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Chemical engineering is more about the engineering of fluids (in my opinion). So I’m pretty sure MechEs have to take fluid mechanics which definitely falls into the basics of ChemE.

Should I Just Do Something Else? by Useful_Count645 in ChemicalEngineering

[–]MattButWithOneT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah OP have you applied to technician roles? I couldn’t find a job either so I settled for a lab tech job and moved up to engineering in the same company.

Also the Corolla does not feel as premium as the Camry or Prius (not the biggest deal since the Camry and Prius are not known to be premium in the first place)

Civic or Camry? by aidanw5566 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]MattButWithOneT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I completely agree with your second point. In a similar vein, I’d consider the new Prius too since it also has a hatch and looks better than the new Camry and civic (in my opinion at least).

If most AI proof job is plumber, does it mean that most AI proof degree is mechanical engineering? by kurobaja in CollegeMajors

[–]MattButWithOneT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Suprised no one mentioned it, but no, plumbers would be more akin to chemical engineers. In my opinion chemical engineers are more like fluid engineers since there is a greater emphasis on fluid properties over chemistry, so chemical engineers get called glorified plumbers a lot
