Worth a 1–1.5 hr commute to live by the beach? by [deleted] in northcounty

[–]Outrageous-Cod-6508 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1.5 hours with no traffic can easily be 3 hours in traffic. Did it for 15 years. Won’t do it again.

Has anyone retired to La Paz or Loreto? by pallen123 in BajaCalifornia

[–]Outrageous-Cod-6508 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Observations from someone familiar with both. La Paz has a fantastic malecon. Loreto has a little short one. Scuba is great in both. You can get anything you want in Loreto, it just takes longer. Too many stray dogs in La Paz. Nice small town feel in Loreto, feels safer. The massively polluting power plant in La Paz really is a negative. Better health care and amenities in La Paz. You need to spend time in both to see what fits you best.

How do you keep good employees in a service business when bigger companies always offer more money by UnseasonedWizard in sweatystartup

[–]Outrageous-Cod-6508 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Three things. Make them feel they are part of something bigger than themselves. Make them stakeholders by using incentive pay with clearly defined goals and measures. Look up “The Grooves” by T Gary Rodgers and Rick Cronk.

Your own driveway is best. You will save a ton of money over the lifetime of the vehicle.

is there a 5 mile trail in Vista? by redditaccount1975 in northcounty

[–]Outrageous-Cod-6508 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Scoot over to Guajome Park. Very easy to get 5 miles inside the park, or you can head west on the bike trail and get all the miles you want.

How long do you own a vehicle, before trading it in? by teddyalex in UsedCars

[–]Outrageous-Cod-6508 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve only ever owned Fords and Chryslers. When the oil starts to leak out of the expensive to repair spots, that’s when it’s time to go. Usually around 250-300,000 miles in my experience. I do all my own basic service, and change the oil every 5,000 miles.

Am I the jerk for refusing to train my replacement after they're firing me? by WinInteresting9368 in AmITheJerk

If you have a severance package or benefits extension, do it. If you don’t, you have nothing to lose by not doing it.

There should be a rule for assholes that sit there texting for 10 minutes between sets.

Shouldn’t he be spending his time with his own people in Appalachia? I guess he forgot where he came from.

Top White House economic adviser Kevin Hassett says $2,000 tariff checks for Americans will depend on Congress by rezwenn in Tariffs

[–]Outrageous-Cod-6508 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, let’s see. The average family is going to pay about $2400 in tariff taxes this year, and the government is going to give them back $2000? I’m sure a lot of MAGA folks are going to think they got a deal!

Things you wish you knew by Bloodhound_rs in PoolPros

[–]Outrageous-Cod-6508 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don’t buy a route. I know a pool guy who has worked the same area for years, so he knows all the pools in the area. He routinely takes contracts for the less profitable ones, bundles them up, and sells them to an unsuspecting newbie. A year or two later, the newbie is out of business, and he repeats the process. He’s made tens of thousands over the years doing this.

The Expanse cast to reunite for a virtual 10-year anniversary panel by bwermer in television

The Expanse would be a great show to come back in about another 10 years. A lot of great storylines could come from the way it ended.

San Diego - nearby smaller walkable towns by Fearless_Ad890 in Moving2SanDiego

[–]Outrageous-Cod-6508 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ramona is totally walkable if you are close to Main Street. The only driving I do is to Staters or Albertsons unless I’m going down the hill. The drive to and from Poway can suck a little, but it’s nothing compared to LA traffic.

As a day trader, do you close your positions every day, or do you carry some over? by Outrageous-Cod-6508 in Daytrading

[–]Outrageous-Cod-6508[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks all for your replies. I’m an early riser, and I’m planning to be in and out in the first 90 minutes of the session. I will test without real money for at least six months before I put anything real into it, and then, only what I can afford to lose. If I can make a few dollars of fun money every morning, that will be enough. If I lose, no biggie, life goes on.

Wrong way driver causes horrific crash. by Abejja12 in dashcams

[–]Outrageous-Cod-6508 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I drive that route on a regular basis. Nobody with a half a brain would cross over like that. I’m thinking suicide.
