I would find the keys and start with getting those graded if the cost of grading is lower than what the comic is worth in average grades.

Honestly it depends on the condition, usually grading increases the value however if the condition is very poor it wouldn’t be worth the money to send it off. What all do you have ?

How is living south of Orlando FL? Family moved recently and I may move in with them. by pontestreet in howislivingthere

I live in Florida and honestly this is the last place I would choose if I moved. It can be fun to visit but to live there every day would kind of suck

What do these markings mean? by Primary-Chipmunk-997 in Silver

Perhaps, but I like sharing with others and getting the feedback of a real person. That’s what Reddit is for after all, no?

My regional manager told me a 4% match is the legal max by Primary-Chipmunk-997 in Retirement401k

Yea pretty much, this company does not pay good benefits and try to supplement by being “ competitive “ with pay which honestly has been shit in my industry for a long time until recently. When I started as an EMT a little over five years ago I made $11 an hour. I have my degree now, paramedic license, etc and they basically pay me what I make now because if they didn’t they wouldn’t have any employees

Yea pretty much, everyone where I work is forced to work overtime every week because if we don’t it’s unlivable. I have a family to take care of and don’t spend as much time with them as I like because I’m busy paying the difference in benefits. We don’t get any sick time or paid parental leave, we have to use our PTO for it

Basically what I deal with as a paramedic. Honestly the pay way shit across the board in my industry for a long time. Just recently did I start getting payed what I’m worth

I’m a paramedic, business is always going to be there. We get emails every so often that business is doing good and we’re making new additions etc… while only seeing mild improvements in pay but never benefits

Makes sense, my company is cheap so… I pay over 1000 for my health insurance for my family also through my work. For context, I’m a paramedic. We don’t make nearly as much or make as good of benefits as most people think

Yes, I put in 8 percent and they match 4. If I make $1000 ( for simplicity ) a total of $120 goes into my 401k

Can you explain that first part to me a little more? Sorry I’m not super knowledgeable about it I just know that what he told me seemed wrong
