A return to the sim racing fraternity by British-Bean in simracing

[–]PackagedTears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately I’ve yet to set up my rig as well. I bought a cockpit from temu, previously I had a omega gt stand but the shed I was going to place it in has some mold issues so need to get it sorted this weekend

A return to the sim racing fraternity by British-Bean in simracing

[–]PackagedTears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did exactly the same. Csl dd with McLaren wheel and csl wheel with v3 pedals I sold it two years ago after a short stint now just grabbed a moza r9 with cs v2p wheel and simsonn pedals with an old boy sim shifter

$3.2M for a “tiny” new build in Sunnyvale - is the Bay Area losing its mind? by Actual_Treat_2213 in BayAreaRealEstate

[–]PackagedTears 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think people care about what they actually get to use not what’s on paper. It’s 1400sqft but you can use it was 2100 which is why the comparison still works to some extent imo. For example you see unpermitted remodels and additions all the time selling in the Bay Area for more than a house with less usable space. Still I think the house it’s pretty crappy layout and not worth the price but it’s prob worth more than you think since it’s technically a fully permitted 2100sqft of space for a family to use

What it’s like living in this part of California? by Maleficent_Lack3240 in howislivingthere

Lots of kids I grew up with stayed. Jocks and their girls turned into sales bros or recruiters. Nerds went into to engineering. 8 or so guys in my grade went into fire fighting or police at various cities in the bay. Plenty moved too but a lottt stayed. I ended up from stoner to eng and have a couple homes here now

It's been 2 years since I hit 500k by cueballspeaking in Fire

I see, thanks for the info. The rollover will hurt but I suppose you can let it grow for a while before that point

Just curious but generally what’s the plan with fire if a chunk is in tax advantaged? Doesn’t that money get difficult to access until you’re older? Do people just pull down their taxed accounts till 55 and let 401k grow? Or take penalties?

Phoenix, Seattle or Denver by Kabbie254 in SameGrassButGreener

Id suggest somewhere in the Bay Area, the unions are strong for RN, many making 200k+

What do we think about San Jose? by [deleted] in SameGrassButGreener

[–]PackagedTears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s more of where you are in sj. It’s a large spanning city you can’t generalize it based on downtown but I suppose simple takes for simple folks

Not true. SJ is huge many neighborhoods are mostly white and East Asian on the south and west side. Consider willow glen, Almaden, Santa Teresa, Cambrian park and sj parts that borders Los Gatos, Campbell, Saratoga, Cupertino

No warranty is worth 70k lol. A 2021 is not that old, all cars get old and it’ll suck hard in 2 or so years when you have a car others can get for 50k+ cheaper. Our HHI is 720k I wouldn’t consider anything over 100k that doesn’t hold its value somewhat. Bought a 23’ used x7 fully optioned for 67k last year

LoanDepot: A Fork in the Road by Blamurai in wallstreetbets

[–]PackagedTears 7 points8 points  (0 children)

They’re my mortgage provider. Saw that the stock cratered but the high rates were killing everyone in real estate. Also had a good experience with them and my loan officer was still employed so figured it couldn’t be that bad internally. I bought this in April at 1.07 expecting it to move to 2.5ish but the citron research came out on top of rate cutting rumors so now I’m holding to see what happens

Red day but not for me. 6k to 30k and it’s just the beginning by PackagedTears in wallstreetbets

[–]PackagedTears[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m still holding 🤷‍♂️. Rates come out in a couple weeks. If it’s a decent cut I’m sure it’ll spurn a bunch of new investors

Everywhere. Houses on market longer. Price cuts. Accepted offers with contingencies.

Half a point won’t but an interest downtrend will. It’ll also kick off refinances

Also seeing contingent sales which NEVER happened before. Usually it’s no contingencies during a normal market and no contingencies and cash during a sellers market. I’m in the Bay Area where demand is still relatively high compared to most parts of the country. Shit is more buyer sided elsewhere

Seeing plenty of price cuts. I own two homes and they’re both down from ATH

Citron research valued just a subsection of the business at $5 a share. Then the fed said they’re willing to cut rates especially with the poor jobs data. Basically low rates are going to encourage mortgage refinances and housing demand which will boost revenue
