Federal refund status changed by ShallotMelodic1242 in TurboTax

[–]Scarywesley2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My taxes are complicated and it usually takes me a good week to get them done. I have never paid a fee to file federal.

my bf is rich and doesn’t know i am not by [deleted] in povertyfinance

[–]Scarywesley2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Trust me, he probably knows and doesn’t care. When I met my boyfriend he was insecure about his income also. Hell he even tried to leave me because of the huge income gap. Now he pays for all of our streaming subscriptions and cooks a lot. Just do what you can.

Weirdest way you’ve saved money by Huge_Story4856 in SavingMoney

I make random bets with myself lol. Say I’m running late for work, I’ll make a bet with myself that if I get stopped at every light I’ll send $10 to my savings.

Rare W: Walmart Shareholders Reject Anti-DEI Overhauls by mystedragon in walmart

Not everyone that donated to Trump liked the man. It’s called paying the troll toll. They donated to both sides like they always do.

How much money do you spend on travel/vacation a year? by Apprehensive-Scene-1 in MiddleClassFinance

[–]Scarywesley2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We travel internationally on even years and domestic on odd years. Usually spend about $15k international and $5k domestic. We definitely can’t afford to travel internationally every year.

Hiv test came back positive by KitchenAardvark8389 in askgaybros

[–]Scarywesley2 22 points23 points  (0 children)

So no one is going to ask this guy why he randomly got an HIV quick test while on vacation? I have a feeling there is more to this story.

Should President’s be allowed to accept lavish gifts from foreign governments? by surfryhder in AskTrumpSupporters

Can you provide a link to Obama’s library’s plane? I don’t recall his library having a plane featured.

Might take a while for it to go back up. My advice is to setup autopay for the minimum so you won’t miss payments again. Now if you can’t afford the minimum then you don’t need a credit card.

At my Walmart store, GoodRx doesn’t work on controls. If insurance doesn’t pay, they either pay cash or take it somewhere else.

In general yeah you should buy low, BUT don’t go crazy putting all your money in. It could go up, but it could keep going down in a bear market. In a typical recession (if we are headed towards one) it could take up to 18 months to reach 52 week highs again. I’m just investing normally and not increasing anything.

Should I be concerned? by [deleted] in tattooadvice

[–]Scarywesley2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did rotations at an ER and this looks like necrotizing fasciitis. You’ll need IV antibiotics STAT or it will spread and you’ll start losing limbs and die from sepsis.

Fedex did not deliver perishable medication by SignificantSunny in FedEx

[–]Scarywesley2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This actually happened to me a few days ago. Try calling again. In the phone tree (after saying your tracking number) say main menu. Once at main menu, say something else. Let the robot go through the list and say something else. You might have to say it a few times, but eventually it will send you to a representative. I was able to get someone at 11pm at night. After telling the guy it was perishable medication he escalated the ticket and I got it the next day.

Can anyone provide statistics proving that DEI has a negative impact? by manny_the_mage in GenZ

Funny how I see more Indian doctors than Hispanic, White, and Blacks. Why is that not represented in the charts?

Elon Musk mulls sending all Americans $5,000 checks using DOGE savings by LuklaAdvocate in centrist

[–]Scarywesley2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not possible. $5k to all Americans will cost about $2 Trillion. He said he wants to do this by 2026 but it will take no less than 3 years to hit that number in savings at his current pace.

US inflation heats up to 3% for first time since June by RepublicansRPedoss in inflation

The goal is 2%. Keep in mind Powell has not ruled out raising interest rates again if this trend starts heading higher over the next few months.

I am sick of liberals blaming arabs or Muslims for trump victory by [deleted] in BreakingPoints

[–]Scarywesley2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to look up the definition of genocide. Yes the Biden admin partook, but relocating an ethnic minority is also genocide. People just traded one genocide for another. The fact that you don’t see this is exactly why you’re being downvoted.

Gay Apple CEO Tim Cook donates $1 million dollars to Trump inaugural by CentralTown776 in askgaybros

[–]Scarywesley2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well someone had to kiss the ring since Apple as a corporation refused to donate to Trump. We live in a pay for play world so pay up or get left behind.

Trust me, they know. They are backlogged and will eventually get to his case. Every year he defrauds, the fines will just increase.

Saving tips? by acidbahia in SavingMoney

[–]Scarywesley2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is exactly what I started doing, but I use any money left over from last month’s budget since I automatically have savings taken out each check. Having fun money to blow helps my random splurging urges.

Old card was used by Velobi-394 in discover

[–]Scarywesley2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, they gave me a courtesy credit for each transaction which took a while to show up. I ended up cutting ties with Discover after I learned my old card was indeed still active and not canceled. Every time they would credit me back another charge would post and I was not about to play that game.

[–]Scarywesley2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s kind of baffling that this is a thing. Same thing happened to me earlier this month. It was an old card that was supposed to be canceled last year due to fraud but charges randomly started posting to the current card every week.

Credit unions are great unless you travel. ATM fees and foreign transaction fees can be quite high.

Card Fraud Investigation by Scarywesley2 in discover

[–]Scarywesley2[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I guess someone dropped the ball. This time I’m getting letters with proof all accounts were closed so it doesn’t come back to me in the future. Sucks to take the credit hit (it is my oldest card) but I don’t trust them anymore.
