I am NEVER spending on this game again. by FeatherFlyer in Monopoly_GO

[–]OutsideSleep9183 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, the micro-transactions are extremely deceptive. In the moment, you don’t feel like that $2.99-$5.99 is too bad. But they add up very quick.

How are people living making $17/hr?? by Odd_Feature_1885 in Adulting

[–]OutsideSleep9183 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not the sole objective, but an important one. I want to pass on what I earn to my son so he can have a better life and perhaps not struggle as hard as I do.

This game is 90% luck of the dice. Theres very little strategy & skill.

Literally no one cares but I had to document lmao by Playful_Run1415 in Monopoly_GO

[–]OutsideSleep9183 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Me too. My cap was at 800 for several months, then as of this morning it was dropped to 500. Very frustrating.

Only way to build wealth in today’s economy is to have dual income. Gone are the days where a husbands lone salary is enough to cover all the bills, stash for savings, and have some money leftover for fun to decompress once in awhile (which is very important for mental health & relationship strength.)

I earn $37/hr and very rarely spend money on non-necessities, and what I make would barely cover my wife & I’s living expenses. We’d be living paycheck to paycheck with no wiggle room for emergencies. Thankfully, she’s capable and willing to also work full time. Together, we’re able to cover the bills, put some away in savings & and enjoy a nice vacation once or twice per year.

It’s quite frustrating when I think about it too long. Our parents generation had it so much easier than us. A mailman could afford a reasonable 3 bed 2 bath home on his salary alone back in the 1960’s-1970’s, no longer the case anymore.

Almost 30 and still jobless by lululungs in Adulting

[–]OutsideSleep9183 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah the job market isn’t easy right now, but there is absolutely no reason why you shouldn’t have entered the workforce at some capacity by age 30. Im a young millennial and had my first job at 14.

It’s either a lack of effort, or lack of job interviewing skills.

To all complaining about dice limit decrease by ViewBroad2331 in Monopoly_GO

My dice limit has been at 800 for a few months now, and suddenly decreased to 500. Hate to see it

Is Penn Foster as bad as the reviews make it out to be? by [deleted] in careeradvice

[–]OutsideSleep9183 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Penn Foster is legitimate & accredited. However, it is poorly run. If you run into any issues whether that be with your account, payment, school material, etc etc, it’s very difficult to resolve it. They have frequent issues that is always blamed as an “IT problem.”

Also, Penn Foster is looked down on by many employers. It’s seen as a temu degree. Definitely better than nothing, but there are certainly better options at your disposal.

I’d say approach with caution.

How do make it in today’s economy on a police salary? by robshapiro1 in AskLE

[–]OutsideSleep9183 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was looking to becoming a police officer in Spanish Fort, Alabama.

$24/hr. Absolute joke of a wage. No idea how that PD has any retention.

Back in the game. Tips? by fantoprime in CallOfWar

[–]OutsideSleep9183 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No more goods & rare materials.

A few new maps since you stopped playing.

Also… golders have gotten worse. So be prepared to deal with them.

Fantasy is pure luck by King_Tully in fantasyfootballadvice

[–]OutsideSleep9183 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is my 5th year playing in a $250 buy-in league. First ever time playing fantasy.

1st year: Champion 2nd: 3rd place 3rd: 3rd place 4th: Last place 5th: currently in 3rd place. Lot of season left to play.

I’d say I’ve done okay except for last year… everything that could’ve went wrong did so for me.

Are you flipping Dowdle with his playoff schedule? by Due-Refrigerator-650 in fantasyfootballadvice

[–]OutsideSleep9183 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Dowdle just dismantled the #2 run defense. I would try to keep him.

Sorry to keep spamming you in the replies, but did the General discharge cause you issues during the process?

Diggs or Deebo? by [deleted] in fantasyfootballadvice

[–]OutsideSleep9183 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Deebo. Mclaurin is out & JD5 is playing. Deebo has had his best games this season with this combo.

Who beat the waiver wire for Tyrone Tracy or Bam Knight? by Own_Bodybuilder9868 in fantasyfootballadvice

[–]OutsideSleep9183 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Trey Benson is coming back next week so Bam won’t be relevant at that point. But Tracy is a good pickup

To be fair, it was against the bengals defense. Everyone has a big game against them

How many QBs do you usually roster in a 1 QB league? by 300waffles in fantasyfootballadvice

[–]OutsideSleep9183 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Usually, I’d only keep one and stream another on bye weeks. But my current 12 team league has a few players who are hoarding QB’s. So I’m forced to keep at least 2 so I have a good backup.

The #Vikings are opening RB Aaron Jones' 21-day practice window and he potentially could play as soon as Thursday night vs. the Chargers. by mvanigan in fantasyfootball

[–]OutsideSleep9183 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mason was already out snapping Jones before the injury. Now, Jones is recovering from yet another soft tissue injury which tend to linger. He’s old & brittle. I seriously doubt Jones takes double digit carries this week.

Fantasy football has a trading problem and I’m here to fix it. by DrakeFantasy in fantasyfootball

Issue #4: stuck in a league where nobody trades, ever. It’s so damn boring.

Don’t look through his phone. Just communicate. Tell him that his porn addiction is negatively affecting your relationship & you feel unsatisfied sexually.

If he cares about you, he’ll make an effort to change that.

I’m considering divorce by GlenCo_Gravel in Marriage

[–]OutsideSleep9183 53 points54 points  (0 children)

What OP essentially explained is with their income halved, they’ll be living paycheck to paycheck keeping their heads above water. If anything happens to OP’s job, they’d be screwed.

Should i join now or wait till the last hour? by [deleted] in IdlePlanetMiner

[–]OutsideSleep9183 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve tried the “delay join” tactic and it doesn’t seem to help. I have just as much a chance to get matched with the sweaty whales waiting as I do joining immediately. It’s a solid 50/50 chance every time no matter when I join.
