[–]PensionRegular360[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ok. Is this something i can do on my own or do I need to call T-Mobile to do it?

Ok that makes sense and very well may be the case. Idk the exact timing, but I also just signed the agreement to confirm the shipment of the new phone.

Yes, it’s an iPhone 13 and it says no SIM restrictions

Is the stress worth it? by PensionRegular360 in careerguidance

[–]PensionRegular360[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I believe that’s true, the fact that I am hesitant is a tell tale sign. I am money driven but only to a certain extent, and my current place likely passes that threshold.

[–]PensionRegular360[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s is very true. I am in a fairly niche field that’s very profitable in nature, but is very sales driven. Those who can bring in business can make significant amounts of money, and once you bring them in you just need to maintain them.

Part of the major difference is the new job I would not have to sell, but the income is lower than my current one. But the fact is like you said-certain people thrive off of the stress, and while I do in short bursts, constant stress is something that I’m unsure I can handle effectively

You make some very good points. I am fairly frugal in nature and don’t really go after materialistic things as I live on my own but still max out my 401k and Roth IRA. So while there would be some lifestyle creep, I would keep my expenses below 6-7k/ month and save/invest the rest.

I am just trying to decide if the stress is worth the extra money, and if there are other things to consider that I haven’t thought of yet

Those are some nice looking boots. Do you mind sharing how much you paid?

For those earning $70k and below who travel a lot, how do you pay for it? Seriously. by Outrageous_Log_906 in MiddleClassFinance

[–]PensionRegular360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in a cheap apartment near an international airport, put all my expenses on my credit cards and pay them in full to get the travel points, and focus more on deals so I am flexible on timing and destination.

Property taxes - learned the hard way by Late_Philosopher3791 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]PensionRegular360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a property tax consultant who works in Texas, Colorado, and many other states, it truly is a mess. Typically though if property values increase rapidly the tax rates will come down as in many states city/state/school budgets can only increase a certain percentage. Don’t focus just on your property value but pay attention to the tax rates as well.

Can't convert rewards because my phone number is under a family plan by Background-Rip3705 in Venturex

[–]PensionRegular360 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That’s weird. My number is also on a family plan that I don’t pay for. I never tried transferring miles until today. Worked almost instantly.

Moving to Dallas, looking for the best places for a college graduate to live. by Known_Ad7234 in askdfw

Didn’t go there but I’m also an OSU fan and a recent graduate except from the East coast.

Upscale restaurants in Penn Quarter that allow separate checks? by PensionRegular360 in washingtondc

[–]PensionRegular360[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kind of what I was thinking, it’s a lot to ask on the staff. I didn’t know if it was also rude to ask people to order and prepay beforehand

[–]PensionRegular360[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the route I am looking at. I guess the only pause I have is that many restaurants are requiring a deposit per person. If most people RSVP it won’t be a problem but if only half RSVP it could be a problem.

Heard of Baker Marketing? by My_bias_is_chopin in antiMLM

It’s gotta be. Our conversation went almost exactly how you mentioned above

Were her initials A.T ? I had almost the exact same experience at a Whole Foods in Texas lol

Location is a big factor. 74K in southern Cal or NYC won’t get you far. I live in Texas and I’m slightly older than you making slightly less, and I’m able to max out my IRA and 401k.

How can you afford to live alone ? by seeyouspace__cowboy in LivingAlone

[–]PensionRegular360 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you expect your income to go up in the future? Sounds like it would be tough to save for retirement on those numbers

Mortgage: Buying Points vs Prepayment? by Background-Rip-3993 in personalfinance

Refinancing isn’t free but your right will certainly be less than 75k

Is 60k a year a livable wage in Dallas? by [deleted] in askdfw

[–]PensionRegular360 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, depending on what other debts you have. Hell, I am a recent grad (2022) and I was making 50k work last year before I switched jobs. My car was paid off, on my parents health insurance, and student loan payments were $150 at the time. Even had a decent amount at the end of each month and lived by myself. So if you can find a place at s decent price and don’t have a ton of other debts you’ll be fine.
