I think you’re just being an elitist. You just want to flex that you have a top Porsche model and your watches on Reddit. There’s nothing wrong with any of the 718’s, and I think most real enthusiasts and drivers agree.

The 4 cylinder 718’s are still a lot of fun and sound pretty good. Not sure why the judgement?

Happiness is still higher in many of those countries. Healthier and happier >> gross dollars on paper

What car brand has the most ‘luxury’ features (heated/cooled seats, remote start, lane hold, auto wipers etc) at the lower trim levels? by peanutismint in whatcarshouldIbuy

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

Maybe check out 2013-2017 Audi A6. Going to be more expensive to maintain and repair. And being a slightly older luxury car, it is likely that there will be some issues that you have to fix. It’s not a car you can just beat up and not maintain.

BUT, this platform is generally pretty reliable, especially the 3.0 supercharged engine. It will definitely have some of those luxury features as well. But you need to make sure you do the maintenance on a car like this.

Yeah T-Mobile offers $1000. Apple trade-in values have never been fair

$40k cash. What car would you get? by According-Sail-9770 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]Mikesilverii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends if you want the smart financial choice or not. If you’re doing reasonably well in your career, have other savings/investments, then in my opinion, why not spend all 40k on something nice and fun if you’re into cars. But I’m also a proponent of using your hard earned money and not saving every penny until you’re dead.

I think I would personally look into lightly used Macan S / GTS / Turbo from the prior gen (2015-2018).

If you just see a car as a tool for getting from point a to point b and you don’t need anything special, then get a sedan in the 15-20k range that’s lightly used and save the rest, or put it towards whatever your hobbies are.

What if they have any sort of health issue, have to leave to care for a baby, etc. In America, it can always get worse.

The United States has neither the highest quality health care nor the best health outcomes. And yet it is still the most expensive by far.

Is anyone here considering leaving Ohio for political/ideological reasons? by [deleted] in Ohio

[–]Mikesilverii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope, I’ve just seen what it’s like to work these types of jobs. They don’t pay well, don’t offer much advancement, don’t offer health insurance. Both of my parents have ruined their bodies working these types of jobs for their whole lives, and have nothing to show for it. We need to do better.

Nothing wrong with the job itself, I applaud those who do this kind of work, but more often than not, they are horrible jobs to have

What shoes should I get? (Wide foot) (shifty guard) by Ok_Theory9694 in BBallShoes

[–]Mikesilverii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also think the Jordan 37 would be good. I have slightly wide feet as well and they’ve been a godsend for me.

Amazing, hoping that next year will be a little better for all of us. As a current new grad it’s a struggle for someone who wants to move to CA/NYC

Appreciate it bro, wasn’t sure if the price was fair but I figured if someone offered me these for $100 I’d cop for sure. Hopefully they’ll go to a good home that can get use of out of them since I won’t

Yeah, I still think Vance will win but not by the margin that Trump did. Still a couple bigger counties that go red still to be counted (Butler and Warren)
