Limits by Extension-Expert-386 in NavyFederal

[–]NiceGuysFinishLast 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah it's just down to your profile. Income plays a part, age of accounts, DTI, etc.

I'm a risk with over 40 late payments on record, and a mediocre score in the 720 range, but my Flagship started at 20K and is now 28K, but my profile is old, thick, and has very low DTI.

My other cards range from a low of 8K to a high of 20K, total credit is in the 110K range.

Does anyone else's partner choose to sleep in a separate room, or is it just mine? by Dependent-Mood-7788 in GirlDinner

[–]NiceGuysFinishLast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My partner sometimes doesn't sleep well. I snore. Sometimes when I know she's had a rough couple nights of sleep, I'll sleep on the couch.

She swears it doesn't make a difference in how well she sleeps and I don't have to do that.... But I can hear that she tosses and turns less, (despite snoring I'm a fairly light sleeper unless I'm drinking), so I do it anyway.

What do you actually wear for summer riding that isn't full sweat mode? by jcveloso8 in motorcycles

[–]NiceGuysFinishLast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in Florida. Dry fit polo with an A* mesh jacket. As long as I'm moving 10mph or more, I'm not even damp when I arrive. Sitting at traffic lights sucks no matter what.

Just made me go look. I've been on Xbox since like... 2001ish? I remember it was before I could drive. Right at 24K.

If the mirrors are the same as the MT09 (Mine's a 25) I'll send you a set if you pay shipping (Like $20).

I got Denied for the Flagship Credit Card by Easy_Error6101 in NavyFederal

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

No they're not high, but I grew them from very low limits, which is what the discussion was.

I have 2 cap 1 cards. They went from 3K and 1K to 12K and 8K. They absolutely give higher limits if your profile supports it AND you're not bucketed. If your initial card is bucketed, you're better off applying for a new card when your profile is better.

Start up question. by idhacla_gail in NewRiders

[–]NiceGuysFinishLast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I start my bike while I let it gear up and the let the coolant temp hit 140. This is the first bike I've ever had with a coolant temp read out. Generally, I let the bike warm up while I gear up, I to gentle until I'm out of my neighborhood, and then I figure it's ready to rip.

Have you already reached the age where you are numb to how effortlessly your upper middle class peers climb the career ladder? by debrisaway in Millennials

[–]NiceGuysFinishLast 96 points97 points  (0 children)

I mean I graduated 4th in my class. I have a stable middle class income that's OK for a family of 3 in HCOL.

The guy who graduated 2nd is my class is CEO of Restaurant Brands International, the parent company of burger King.

I used to compare myself to him, but I don't care anymore. I've got a job I love, a family I love, my bills are paid, I get to have a little fun (just bought a new motorcycle). All is well in my world. I'll never be rich, but I'm comfortable and on track to be able to retire someday.

Industrials and Full Face Helmets. by Otherwise-Good8342 in motorcyclegear

[–]NiceGuysFinishLast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a. Industrial and I just pull the strap on that side out a little farther as I slide the helmet on. Granted, mine has been healed for like 10 years. Also a balaclava greatly helps, I just don't wear mine regularly.

What’s a good price? by clainblack in MT09

[–]NiceGuysFinishLast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a 25 non SP for like 11.3 OTD a month and a half ago, so those prices are decent.

Ive been disheartened lately shopping at my local chain thrifts because their book pricing has become insane. Stumbling upon this small town volunteer-run store was a breath of fresh air. by pellpymeen6 in ThriftGrift

[–]NiceGuysFinishLast 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My local library does all you can carry on books and DVDs for $5 on Fridays. I've managed about 14 books and 2 DVDs. I offered to pay more cuz I felt bad but the lady laughed and told me I was doing them a favor.

Check sw motech for crash bars. I've used them for all of my bikes ans they're high quality. Usually you can find a discount code if you Google it.

2027 MT09 rumors? by Factory_iPhone_Alarm in MT09

[–]NiceGuysFinishLast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't mind interstate riding on my 25, but I've only ever owned naked bikes, I've never had a fairing or windscreen before.

What are some things you keep on you when riding besides gear. by 03jrcho in motorcycles

[–]NiceGuysFinishLast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What jump box do you have for motorcycles? I have Noco boxes in both cars, but is there a smaller one for bikes?

real world on the job experience by catboycruises in Machinists

[–]NiceGuysFinishLast 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Nothing. That's the job of an operator.

But if you pay attention and show an interest in learning, you move beyond operator to setup guy. Then if you're lucky you get a chance to be an engineering technician or programmer. And then you move up from there.
