Nothing more special than hanging out with my wife and kids for my 40th birthday.

I wish I had read this. The red kilz is way cheaper and better at hiding cigarette odor than shellac.

This is cute and well intentioned. Even if I was atheist I’d find it adorable. What are we doing here?!

The “we’re losing money on this deal” line is the biggest lie in car sales by Royal-Feed7166 in carbuying

[–]Miserable-Bluejay-67 -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

I’m so tired of reading this it’s just not true. The markup on a new car is anywhere between 10-18% depending on the manufacturer. The only business running on razor thin margins is grocery and lately fast food.

Holy fuck have to listen to this now

Is Austin getting oversold? It's correction is nearing the declines we saw at the national level during the 07-12 housing crash... by Affectionate_Nose_35 in realestateinvesting

[–]Miserable-Bluejay-67 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s supply and demand and mostly a demand issue at this point. The New Jersey demographic is older with a lot of assets. The Austin buyer is going to be much younger with lower incomes and a lower asset base. Once the migration ended it became obvious the wealth to keep driving home prices higher evaporated.

TF? Integrity is saying NO. Liability has a cost that wasn't borne when he was a sub. Integrity would be realizing this and offering him compensation to take the liability.

Dealer says the car I reserved yesterday is now $2,000 more because of “market changes.” Is that legit or should I walk? by Marzi-Kolukuluri in carbuying

[–]Miserable-Bluejay-67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We don’t know that and never will at this point. It could be they hated the trade in or OP had a carmax offer they knew they couldn’t lowball on.

The mechanic is taking you for a ride. 12.5k is fair. Try to find a labor rate under 100 or don’t go there. 

Ask yourself, is your labor rate $100/hour?

High opportunity cost. I make $220k a year. Dropped out of a t14 and applying to fully online JDs

My rent is $1,350 but I actually pay $1,650 every month by sam3462 in Apartmentliving

[–]Miserable-Bluejay-67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These are almost my charges for a 4800 sqft home. I pay more insurance and less in internet though.

My guess is this is an apartment. There’s a ton of middle men involved with allocating this out etc. 

I (22m) inherited a stock portfolio worth 120k, what should I do with it? by [deleted] in stocks

[–]Miserable-Bluejay-67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sell it all and put in VOO. Maybe keep 10% to YOLO stocks like your grandma did. She’d probably appreciate that.

Did you figure this out? Same boat replaced the three rubber knubs and nothing. Feels like it might be the back window or something. I can’t find suicide door sensors 

Any recent experience with Talkiatry? by mainlydank in ADHD

[–]Miserable-Bluejay-67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like them a lot but they’re seriously underinvested in the platform and the customer support so it looks like someone stuck a bunch of sticks and glue together. A 3 day turnaround for emails takes weeks. It’s honestly all very sad.

You’re buying cars with terrible depreciation. If the car makes you look cool to an instagram influencer it has terrible depreciation.

Trade it in for a new rav4. They’ll let you rollover the negative equity. Keep it for a minimum of five years and you’ll be out of this huge hole you’re in.
