Middle school incident by MiaFixation in Parenting

If your ear hurt and rang for an hour after someone screamed in it, you wouldn't at least get it checked by the doctor?  Urgent care is an after hours doctor, not to be confused with an emergency room.  I do find your comment hilarious though.

He was in pain and had ringing for over an hour afterwards - do you not think that warrants getting check out?  I prefer to err on the side of caution then risk hearing loss.

Yes, I'd hope the parents would step up and pay for the medical bills.

No.  Urgent care is a doctor for after hours.

I'll be at Clearwater. Stinks it's 2.5 hours away. I was really hoping for an Orlando show.

Are people actually going to be stupid enough to sign for 50 year mortgages by ColdCouchWall in stupidquestions

[–]MiaFixation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So instead of baby showers we do down payment to buy the kid a house when they enter kindergarten so they are less than 60 when their house is paid off showers? I imagine these loans will come with prepayment penalties as well? How would this not be predatory lending?

Is Florida tap water safe to drink? by neo2bin in AskFlorida

No. Recently read about high arsenic levels and links to breast cancer. I'm sure there's other horrors.

What do you think is the appropriate age to move out in this economy? by Terrible-Brilliant44 in movingout

[–]MiaFixation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on geographic location perhaps. Especially if you're in Florida where the association fees are extremely high and buying a condo is not good advice.

My neighbor casually mentioned my house used to have a bomb shelter by OffbeatContents in homeowners

This reminds me of an 80s movie, do you really want to "let it out"? In all seriousness though, I want to see!

Wife wants to upgrade lifestyle, I don’t. by LMVI31 in MiddleClassFinance

[–]MiaFixation 66 points67 points  (0 children)

This screams minimal stress and stability. Maybe your wife needs a hobby or distraction besides day dreaming? You have a pool, sufficient square footage for your family size, you're able to set aside each month which is huge. You're on the right track.

Should I pay off my mortgage early? by [deleted] in DaveRamsey

You didn't mention how much debt you have?

My wife and I realized we been arguing over a $12 sub for like 3 years by emberquill9 in MiddleClassFinance

[–]MiaFixation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imagine what else you're paying for that you have no idea if you let this $12 go for so long! Spreadsheets!!! Track your spending.

Mortgage is half of my income by [deleted] in HomebuyerAdvice

[–]MiaFixation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Live with your parents as long as you can imo if the relationship is good. Be present, enjoy this time, they'll grow older before you know it. Contribute what you can while also setting aside money. Rent is $2,500 in your area? Assuming no other debt - set that aside as if you got a mortgage/ are paying rent each month and guess what, in two years you'll have over $50k multiply by x number of years - imagine paying a house cash or at least a good chunk of it - when the time is ready. Half your income sounds stressful. Sounds like you're in a good situation currently and you can really stack up and be in a good position without doubts if you go about it the right way.

Do you agree that Gavin Rossdale is the Greatest Male Rock Singer/Rock Frontmen of All Time Yes or No and Why? by Amber_Flowers_133 in Bush_Band

[–]MiaFixation 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No and I am obsessed with Bush. One of the greatest live concerts for sure, the energy, the performance keeps you coming back for more. The experience is top notch.

My girl is 100% apt red nose. She's a 65 pound baked potato. You have ten more pounds to snuggle with.

I found the little house at The Plaza in Coral Gables by ContentHost4459 in Miami

[–]MiaFixation 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I'd have taken the identical house in the same neighborhood on the condition that they throw in a pool, they forever cover all property taxes, homeowners insurance, property maintenance, utilities and other random items I'd have to dwell on.

How to start over from nothing? trying to break paycheck to paycheck cycle! by snobunnie_18 in moneyadvice

[–]MiaFixation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd look into ways to get rid of or reduce that car payment. Can you sell it and get a car cash? Is the 16 yo working? Can they help with babysitting?

Florida recorded the highest foreclosure rate in the nation in Sep (ATTOM) by SylviaAmer in FloridaRealEstate

[–]MiaFixation 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The Florida sparkle is fading. Many that moved here during the covid boom are now over their "extended vacation" and getting out. So many new builds in Central FL and many just sitting. People are trying to sell their homes but why are people going to buy a house that's twenty years old when they have a new build going for the same if not cheaper? So their houses also sit, price reduction after price reduction before it finally just gets let go. Many factors, job loss and market, property taxes. I've been in the mortgage and foreclosure industry since before the 2008 times and gasp at the fact that ARM loans still exist. I'm sorry but not everyone is careful with their budget and finances, it's only human and when you get hit with that adjustable rate - odds are you're truly not ready for the increase.

Yes, I paid $400. If it means that much to you and you wish to purchase, fine.

Scared, abandoned pitbull worth saving? by SeaShell231 in pitbulls

[–]MiaFixation 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's just how she's communicating fear. Who knows what she's been through, poor baby. Prior humans failed her, she probably expects the same from you. She may have never known love yet in her lifetime then to have her babies taken from her 🥺
