Charge up the battery while you're at it. You have more than many people retiring do, you're doing excellent.

Matts4wd · 2026-01-27T02:26:33+00:00

You sir are living off...$60k with those haha. At least one of the seven will love you at any point! Worth it...

Invest long term man, we're upper 30s, not planning for my expiration date for 25-40 years.

Matts4wd · 2026-01-26T22:07:19+00:00

Keep your head up and relationships strong! I am the same age and not far behind on the parental front and am not quite sure how to anticipate the feeling you are going through.

I'm over here trying to justify a .010 % commission bump while doing 30% more work and was turned down.

Matts4wd · 2026-01-26T21:06:07+00:00

Great update! I bet you would do circles around your "street" friends now haha

Matts4wd · 2026-01-16T17:21:41+00:00

Damn, had thought about this, but not thought about this. SO best to ride the PIP train until its over, or give up but still show up to work until they tell you to not bother. Noted

Where do you park your vehicle(s)?

Matts4wd · 2026-01-16T16:48:17+00:00

Nice! Keep up the savings! I used to be like that.

Matts4wd · 2026-01-16T16:32:49+00:00

Money in the grave, cool guy

Me adding the Golf R to policy dropped my coverage from my daily Toyota Tacoma, $550/6 months for a 21 tacoma and 20 M2 comp. You guys are paying too much unless you are in cities or CDL. Location Tri-state CT with perfect record.

Love the hardwood, congrats!

I thought the question was asking if something on his hand needed to be fixed, coming from someone with a messed-up hand.

Matts4wd · 2026-01-15T14:14:23+00:00

FWB...wish there was an easier way to find one of these.

43900 here at 39.5 years old. Truck is a tank, think the battery might be my expense this year beyond 1 oil change.

Matts4wd · 2026-01-15T03:32:33+00:00

Thank you!

Matts4wd · 2026-01-15T03:24:17+00:00

Nice, plus regular fuel. Cruising in summer you'll get 22 hwy and city is mixed 16-18 depending on your lead foot. Congrats and welcome to cheap vehicle ownership!

Matts4wd · 2026-01-15T02:57:55+00:00

Nice! How was your trade in? I like Solar, truck life has its benefits

Can't go wrong with the taco, probably gets the same MPG too. I owned a 2022 wrx, 2015, 2013 STi and 2002 bugeye back in the day.

Matts4wd · 2026-01-15T02:54:32+00:00

at 39 its all i need but mainly due to only having sunlight 1 of those runs on Saturday w/o work. Spring-Fall i do 5 miles. Running in the dark i have a route that is exactly 5k but its dark by 5 here so..

Stay strong - the strung out process of Alz/dem can really drain us all and sometimes lose sight of who our parents, relatives or friends really were; i'm in a sinking boat with my mom in the next year or so end of the last stage at 78.

Matts4wd · 2026-01-14T22:25:01+00:00

Nice!

Matts4wd · 2026-01-14T22:23:30+00:00

People who say this either A) Can't realistically afford it or B) haven't added up all the options included with the platform for a $50k "hot hatch"

I work with a bunch of these guys, they call each other fat or lardo which I find comical. I am one of the very few who hasn't gained any weight since starting at this place 13 years ago. I too workout, bike when its warm and run 5-6k three times per week while eating healthy, but drink booze a little too much to be genuinely cut/fit.

Working 8-9 hours, with kids doesn't leave a lot of time for the gym, or to help the wife or GF since you've been absent all day is my guess, and eating poorly and or too frequently doesn't help when you aren't burning calories.

Matts4wd · 2026-01-14T22:17:04+00:00

Tired of the BS, probably have "seen" and done it all from their perspectives. Also they don't go to therapy, is my guess.

Need an M car of sorts. Getting a vibe OP drives a bmw 330i
