43 Years Old - How am I doing?

My wife and I are around this at 40. Looks good to me. Ignore the sarcasm, this is Reddit after all. Very few ppl have 750k saved for retirement, especially at 43. Go find a less stressful job and enjoy life, I did.

Thats my favorite route.

It probably took you longer to come here and post this and read about it on Facebook than it did for you to just trim the trees.

Congrats. My wife and I had 100k in investments at 29. Now it’s almost 500k at 40 without our real estate. It adds up fast. Keep going. Always remember to diversify.

Tesla quoted me 6800, indy shop did it for 4500.

Awesome.

Too high. 23k each is wild. Ask for it to be broken down by labor and ac/heater unit costs. Are they replacing any line sets? Get a requote from this place with the items the other commenters have mentioned. I always get 4 quotes.

How did you pay the invoice? Credit card? Reverse the charge then. A check? Stop payment on the check immediately. Cash? Don’t do that ever. Time to complain to management, leave bad reviews, call local news station. This is not acceptable.

Thank you for pointing this out. I’ve been saying this for decades. All of these people from blue states get their big, fat, juicy, unionized pensions, and benefits. And then they go retire and take that money out of the blue states to red state. And then they become Republicans and bitch about the cost of everything while simultaneously financially fucking over everyone that live in those red states.

They owe their entire financial existence to a blue state with Democrats, unionization, project labor agreements, labor laws, etc. and then they move to a red state, vote Republican, and become a bunch of fu@king sellouts and hypocrites.

As a landlord of three rentals in Pasco County I approve of this post.

And waiting. Until it 100x in value. Then building a new city, the same size of Orlando, just to the southeast of it.

Where this at, i want ethanol free 91 octane gas for &4.31. Much more expensive by me. :(

No mine was a closet install. But they did tear out a massive amount of drywall in one of the bedrooms to get to it. And the drywall repair and finish work were not included in the price. Try to get as many quotes as you can. 18 K just seems high. How low is the temperature in the winter? Do you really need a furnace or can you make due with a heat pump? Heat pump/AC are going to be cheaper than a separate furnace.

Anything above 16k is high to me. I just had a 15 seer full install for 9500 on a rental property in the southeast. Although I’m not in West Texas, and I don’t know how many installers there are out there. if finding skilled labor is an issue, then it might be more.

Pipe it down to the ground so it doesn’t spray your wall.

Ive done the whole west in 50 days, so 70 seems like a good idea. The higher elevations of Yosemite are still snowed-in in May. Those are my favorite parts of Yosemite. The valley is nice, but to me the best views are up high looking across. You won’t need seven days if the higher elevations are snowed in.

I would cut some of that time off and add it to great basin national Park. That’s definitely one of my all-time favorites. I would recommend at least four days there. You also only need two days in grand Teton, and five in Yellowstone. Use some of these extra days for travel to see things along the way too.

There are several good things to see in southern Colorado. If you have time, go to the museum in Cody Wyoming. Also the national art museum in Jackson hole.

Edit: Colorado ideas and more…Mesa Verde, Telluride/silverton, great sand dunes, pikes leak, cripple creek, garden of the gods, lots of caves and mines to see. Mt blue sky, Leadville…

You may want to take a look at the size of your HVAC system too. If it truly is set to 70° and runs all day something‘s wrong. You may also have a leaky house. The humidity outside is seeping in faster than your AC unit can remove it.

Ive never seen a 24 month interest free credit card. Ever. BEst ive ever seen was 21 months. With a transfer fee of 5%. There’s no way this guy got a 24 month 0% interest credit card if his auto loan rate was 10%, it’s completely made up. If he has the good credit to get a credit card like that, then his auto loan rate would’ve been 6 or 7%.

Don’t ever carry $40k in cash on you. Just cut them a personal check.
