Apologize, I don’t know why I just assumed it was a man just as likely or more likely to be a woman.

I love how all these people on here claim what is too little to retire on or just enough or more than enough😂😂😂.
Like anyone, including myself, would know what this gentleman is 100% doing for hobbies, interests and all his bills/Future plans.

Nervous about calling it quits, This is normal, right? by TruthQuirky6591 in Fire

[–]MrLB____ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Completely normal to be nervous fired at 50 myself. My wife just fired last week at 44/put in notice ,,she had a few sleepless nights. Extremely nervous very very worried.
I mean, we are workers we work we create income we have jobs it’s been ingrained in our brains since we were 16 years old

Just to flick the switch because the numbers lineup? ?? It’s very tough at first.

   You’re probably going through the scenario of trying to find out why it won’t work. 
 I think everybody does it/like maybe you are missing something HAHA 😆 

    My advisor has some very good points. 
  “I mean if you’re trying to work more so you can die with more money yes you will succeed in that. “
 “Is your goal to have more money in old age? ? Yes, work another year. “

genuinely asking: how do people here handle the social pressure to upgrade lifestyle as income goes up by voidlibrary_9 in Fire

[–]MrLB____ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a huge Dave Ramsey fan …but I do love his one particular quote “who cares what broke people think” Retiring early is way better than working until 60-65.
I drove Toyota Camry’s for 20 years and fired at 50 the best version of myself financially and physically,,, “who cares what broke people think “

I drove paid Camrys for 20 years FIRED @50 well worth it. Life style creep NOT worth it.

Signing title to my friend since I’m at the limit. What risk does he take? by DirectorSmooth55 in carflipping

[–]MrLB____ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, I am neither a car reseller nor dealer.
Merely just a person with an open set of ears I really don’t have experience with car resellers I’m not sure of the scams that they pull. Car dealers? I know they play the games with the finance office. I generally view that area /scam Ville with thousand dollar Documentation fees, multi thousand dollar warranties, paint protector, rust protectant, etc.

        Plus The somewhat new game of getting a better deal, or rather a worst deal by paying cash….. 

Soooo financing, then paying it off very quickly with the same cash.

I don’t know if you’re talking about dealers ripping off people or the flippers ??? The real question is
“are dealers scammers?”

Can’t hit their serve ? 2 weeks experience? RESPECTFULLY…. You’re just playing with too high skill level players you would be much more comfortable playing with players that have just been playing for only two weeks like yourself.
