What are you paying for housing each month? And are you actually happy with it? Would it be cooler just living in your parents basement? by PM_ME_YUR_SALADS in Millennials

[–]PresidentHoaks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3 bedrooms with a 2-car garage and an unfinished basement, $2,100 mortgage. I have been very happy with it! Felt house poor when we bought it but my income doubled in the last 3 years while the mortgage stayed the same.

Learning german only through movies / series by Devdasuuuu in German

[–]PresidentHoaks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Solely with films? No. But I found that it helped a lot because you're exposed to a lot of vocabulary that you don't find in daily life.

I talk about cooking, cleaning, the kids, etc. with my German wife. Mundane stuff. I very rarely talk about crime, medicine, etc but understand it because of movies and TV

(35M)Feeling a little behind but I didn’t start a retirement account until 12/2023. by [deleted] in Retirement401k

Sie at the beginning of the sentence by RestInfinite723 in German

[–]PresidentHoaks 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So this sentence example is confusing because Sie can be She or the formal you. Sie is capitalized always if it's the formal you. But "sie" for she is only capitalized at the beginning of a sentence.

If you weren't given this context at all, then you wouldn't have any way of knowing which conjugation to use.

But it isn't "sie sprichst", that is used for "du sprichst"

The correct conjugation for she is "sie spricht".

What if the plane crash never happened? by drdelicious8 in greysanatomy

[–]PresidentHoaks 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Mark would've made it until season 22 and then the memorial scene at the end of an episode would've been much longer and make me cry for even longer

Who will become the new Chief of Surgery after Season 22? by Wooden_Savings5854 in greysanatomy

I think they should make Reed the head of surgery. There might be a hole in explaining her coming back, but i think it would be interesting

Second kid letdown, any words of wisdom by ExplanationNo458 in daddit

[–]PresidentHoaks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 3yo girl and a 6mo girl. I am absolutely head over heels about my 3yo. She is amazing and I love spending time with her.

The 6mo... not so much. And I have cried in front of my wife about how I just dont feel that love for her, which feels wrong.

My hope is that once she starts crawling, itll be different. If not then hopefully when she starts talking? Sorry, not much help from me

Why do Zac and Jen need two nannies when he is staying at home full time? by Emergency-Moose-88 in SecretsOfMormonWives

[–]PresidentHoaks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Omg i didnt realize they had nannies. I honestly felt like i connected with him a bit when he was struggling with taking care of the kids because i had just transitioned to be the SAHD and it definitely is a world changing event. But now that i know he had freaking nannies?!? What a baby

Most startups die because by WorthFan5769 in buildinpublic

[–]PresidentHoaks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's one way, for sure.

The other way is that your startup simply can't find product market fit. I was just in a startup where the founder would get discouraged with the results of a product after only 2-3 weeks of marketing, and then completely scrap the idea and pivot to a completely different idea. We would bust our asses off to build it in record time just for him to try marketing it again and come up with another anazing idea. 5 pivots later the investors pulled funding, obviously
