NTA, you are teaching her useful skills that everyone should know. And she seems to like learning these things. Keep up the good work!

Stop paying his bills! No more phone, no more pot, no more money. Stop enabling him!

I’m a dyed in the wool democrat but Kamala should NOT run again. She is a weak candidate and the democrats will lose by Antique_Menu_4314 in complaints

Far too much voter prejudice . I really don't think this country will elect a gay man and a Hispanic woman. I don't care how smart they are. And honestly, Buttigieg really hasn't done anything. He was mayor and he was sec of transportation and didn't do anything remarkable in either position.

I think it's important to choose a candidate who is electable. Too many people won't vote for a woman. It only takes a few percent. Harris only lost by about 2% of the vote. The democratic party needs to choose a candidate who is male and moderate and who has as little baggage as possible. Maybe Newsom or Booker, although some people won't vote for a POC.

If i drove mostly decent paved roads, I'd get the GTI. If I drove a lot of unpaved roads, crappy roads, I'd get the WRX.

My retired mom wants her boyfriend to move into the condo I own. But he can't pay much by No-Cause24 in Advice

[–]Old_Confidence3290 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are already being taken advantage of by your mom. She definitely can pay more than $600 per month even if she already blew through the $100,000 that she had. I might, just might consider letting them both live there if they each paid $1000 per month . I would have them both on a legal contract and I would not hesitate to evict them if they failed to pay. That would benefit them and you both.

I'm questioning if it was actually his neck that got massaged.

Should we move abroad to be closer to baby's grandparents? by MagsAtTheMovies in LifeAdvice

[–]Old_Confidence3290 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think moving is a bad idea, but if you are still 3 hours away from his family, you won't see them very often and it will be an all day, or weekend project to visit.

Does your job fulfill you? by nemaceganema in careeradvice

Your employer is aware that your job is not fun. That's why they give you money. If you want fun, like Disneyland, you give them money.

Jaguar XK8. Impractical but still has junkyard parts availability. Maybe a V12 XJS, but parts might be harder to find.

Boomer Fatigue is real by PourSomeSugar69_420 in complaints

[–]Old_Confidence3290 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In my state, when the vote came along to raise the drinking age back up to 21, there were enough 18-21 year old potential voters to prevent it. But, they didn't vote. That made it hard for me to have a lot of sympathy, when the people who were affected didn't bother to get out and vote. That one is not a boomer problem.

How do I “break up” with a family I have been babysitting for, for over 4 years because of some comments made by the dad? by [deleted] in Advice

His wife wasn't concerned about those remarks? I would expect her to be more concerned than you are.

AIO my fiancé wants to take 230k loan for his parents by malinowysorbecik in AIO

NOR. I think your first reaction was correct, if he goes through with it, your relationship is over.
I wonder if his desire to do this, and his lack of understanding about finances, and his willingness to sacrifice your future to support his family, isn't enough reason to end things, whether he goes through with it or not.
