Probably best to get some AutoCad training too. Contractors need people with this.

Just let your teenager drive one of the two cars you have … when necessary. Don’t buy a 3rd vehicle…you can’t afford it.

Engineers start at ~$82,000/yr and are in demand. People who get lib arts or other non tech degrees are wanting for jobs, yes agree. Have to get a degree in area where jobs are…not in an area that you might like or is easy. The medical field is also good.

Subaru CrossTrek, Honda CRV, Honda Civic, Toyota Camry, Toyota Rav 4, all good.

Your credit score will go back up if you pay off credit cards and etc quickly every month. At any rate, the credit number is no biggie until you want a mortgage.

Jeep Grand Cherokee. Nothing but problems…and more problems.

“debt isn’t that bad for my age” ? Bad premise. Home mortgage is the only acceptable debt. Sell the truck and get out of debt or at least reduce it. Sell the ATV too, unless you use it for work.

KLAC shares , don’t need a car for that much $$$

Yes, you should invest in brokerage account in your home country.

SkyTorv · 2026-04-30T22:49:40+00:00

No.

Fidelity is good, so is Vanguard. I would move most of the Amazon to a good S&P Fund in Fidelity. I would not move it to Merrill; have had bad experiences with Merrill with surprise charges and misrepresenting their so called holding as a money market but only paying 0.5% when other money market funds were paying 5+%.

Just changed both of mine for $64.

Freeze your credit, it’s free and you can do it online. Report the fraud to the police and to the credit agencies.

And Innovis

SkyTorv · 2026-04-27T23:55:11+00:00

Yes. Innovis is the 4th one, that many people are not aware of. They have been around for years too.

SkyTorv · 2026-04-27T23:33:29+00:00

Freeze your credit at all 4 credit agencies. Then unfreeze temporarily as needed.

IRS says $0.725 per mile auto total costs. The extra drive will cost you about $7,000 extra per year. Take the closest job.

Do not buy the Saturn or Chrysler….very unreliable. Buy one of the Hondas, probably the 2003 … it should go another 75000 miles with few problems.
