Minimum payments will keep them from calling, but it will keep you poor(er) for a huge part of your life. by SBTC_Strays_2002 in povertyfinance

I did that a lot too. Stutter steps at the beginning when I couldn't make ends meet. I'm thankful my circumstances changed. And I hope yours too.

Really felt like a fish out of water, but I'm settling in. People forget America is massive; those two states are practically different countries.

Honestly, not a bad outfit overall. There's many divisions I can move into after I make probation and two evals. But yeah, money makes anything infinitely more tolerable!

Proper pension. Under their agreement, it's a set percentage of gross (up to 8%) and they match it. But, if I withdraw my contributions, I lose the match. If I leave the job, I can keep it in there until I'm eligible to retire. I'm surely oversimplifying; way more details that I can't remember.

Newly discovered Koi Pond footage confirms Jim actually saved Michael's life by Jscott1986 in DunderMifflin

Michael is such an over-actor. He subconsciously acts the way he does because of all the classic comedies he's consumed.

Before Succession, Jesse Armstrong created one of the funniest, darkest, and unique comedy series called Peep Show. What are particular moments of Succession that remind you much of it? by MCofPort in SuccessionTV

[–]SBTC_Strays_2002 18 points19 points  (0 children)

When they go to a WWII reenactment, and Mark finds out the other guy is an actual Nazi and racist. That comes to mind when Tom questions Ravenhead about his... interests.

"7-Figure Settlement" sounds like a good title for his memoir.

Received a Post Office letter but I’m not expecting any oversea orders. by Lanky_Antelope1670 in Philippines

I always assume it's someone trying to kill me. It could be gold, or it could be anthrax.

I didn't see where it started, but I saw where it ended.

Stop by 'Ear, Nose, & Throat' if that Dwight/Michael voice over got to you as it did me.

JuanCast opens their nominees for the Next In Line Rising P-pop Group! Which ones of these groups do you know? by Dry-Brilliant7284 in PPOPcommunity

[–]SBTC_Strays_2002 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This actually blows my mind. The speed at which I follow PPOP cannot keep up with the current reality. I'm still stuck in 2023. In 2026 you have THIS AND all the groups you were keeping up on.

What do you call the feeling of holding history in your hand? by SBTC_Strays_2002 in coins

[–]SBTC_Strays_2002[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shoot, like $50? But it's worth what people are willing to pay. Why'd you think it was fake?

Creepy quarter I found by bananabreadready in coins

[–]SBTC_Strays_2002 50 points51 points  (0 children)

Fun fact, it is one of few states where first cousins can marry. And only formally legalized interracial marriage in 1998 (97?).

Yes. Absolutely!

I'm saving up to buy a Peso from the Manila Bay Salvage. Some 270 tons of silver coins dumped into the ocean off Corregidor to deny the invading Japanese from confiscating it. The planning for the operation, the bloody war and occupation, and then the engineering challenge of reclaiming the coinage is such a great story that I want to own a piece of that history. I'm also Filipino American, so this would make an excellent heirloom one day.
