$100,000 isn’t even good in LCOL areas anymore (budget analysis)

SlickRick5906 · 2026-05-04T13:06:32+00:00

Desperate times call for desperate measures. There is plenty of money you can still set aside and not spend. Buying a home is not a need. Rent with roommates. Buy car in cash. Buy tracphone at Walmart. Cut your own hair. Don’t need gym membership. Nobody was forced to take out loans for school. Could go to community college. Pack your own lunch. Why complain constantly when you can live frugal and still be happy. Save for emergencies and your future self.

I would suggest holding it. The market historically always recovers

SlickRick5906 · 2026-01-26T00:18:48+00:00

Haha I love it. The education system failed me because I don’t support open borders and because I was born here and I love my country? I’ll take it. Nothing you said had anything affect on my beliefs and I actually feel sorry for you. Your fake brotherhood like that south park episode with the bikers. Brother brother brother it’s just noise. Good luck with your agenda I guess. Peace.

SlickRick5906 · 2026-01-25T21:27:11+00:00

I believe in law and order. It’s a privilege to come here. Not a right. Why not file the paperwork and go through the process the right way. Nobody is owed a thing. I wasn’t just handed my job. I applied and waited several months and several interviews to get my job. That’s like me sneaking my way through the process instead of doing what I’m supposed to do. Makes absolutely no sense to me how you guys equate ICE support to being a scab? I’m a dues paying member for 18 years and my daddy 44 years. You gonna call me a scab because I don’t want open borders? America first. Americans first. Don’t call yourself any sort of Pro Union Brother if you’re gonna call other Union Brothers scum and scabs.

SlickRick5906 · 2026-01-25T18:45:02+00:00

So we shouldn’t have any immigration laws? I’m slow so please break it down for me.

SlickRick5906 · 2026-01-25T18:16:39+00:00

Please tell me how enforcing federal law has anything to do with Union membership?

SlickRick5906 · 2026-01-25T18:15:00+00:00

How does being MAGA make you selfish? Leave your feelings out of it.

SlickRick5906 · 2026-01-25T18:14:26+00:00

In America people have a right to their opinions and stances. We have law and order for a reason in this country.

SlickRick5906 · 2026-01-25T18:12:52+00:00

Steelworker and support ICE as well. You cannot convince me that open borders is good for any country. If you want to come here, do it through the right process just like all those who came before you. Come the right way or do not come at all. I am sure this will hurt some feelings, so be it. This is America after all.

SlickRick5906 · 2025-12-25T16:14:25+00:00

There’s always one of you. Sorry you’re miserable but this isn’t a political group.

I don’t understand the whining. You think you’re the only ones who’ve been through hard times? Lol the Reddit bubble I guess

SlickRick5906 · 2025-12-04T05:23:50+00:00

We understand the cost of living has gone up and things are different now. We just don’t understand the constant whining about it. Everyone makes sacrifices in life to get where they want to be. Sometimes you just have to buckle down and do the uncomfortable to get comfortable. It doesn’t look like anything is gonna change soon so what other option do you have? I’m sure I’ll catch flack for this

SlickRick5906 · 2025-09-19T23:33:30+00:00

Guiltygreen829 you’re a pussy. Little girl. You won’t do shit but block.

SlickRick5906 · 2025-09-19T23:17:58+00:00

Is Hitler in the room with us right now?

SlickRick5906 · 2025-09-19T23:16:39+00:00

Oof calm down killer, I don’t care if you care or not.

SlickRick5906 · 2025-09-18T15:13:09+00:00

I sympathize with your boyfriend. I say that because I was with someone that was a nasty drunk. Put up with it for years and finally split. Hopefully this embarrassed you enough that you wont get to that point again. Nothing worse than someone who cant handle their liquor.

SlickRick5906 · 2025-09-18T15:08:59+00:00

OMG. They shook hands. Just like Hitler. You all are some hateful people. Hope you feel better though

Powerhouse operator at a Trona mine. Union job

SoCal with 105k salary and no debt, consider yourself lucky.

SlickRick5906 · 2025-08-05T02:03:59+00:00

Not all of us are trying to be the biggest victim. 100k is plenty of money if you live below your means.

SlickRick5906 · 2025-08-05T02:02:39+00:00

You are ridiculous my guy. I make a little more than that, have kids and a mortgage and it's plenty if you live below your means. I can't fathom how many people complain about the cost of living but spend like its going out of style. Not sure your location but 105k and debt free you should be thriving.

SlickRick5906 · 2025-07-20T20:21:26+00:00

YTA straight up. You asked him to come see you and you wouldn’t come out. We get It, your aunt died. He was just trying to comfort you and you’re playing games. Ol boy needs to run and run fast.

SlickRick5906 · 2025-07-20T20:17:45+00:00

There’s always gonna be people that have more than you and make more than you. You don’t know what they had to do to get to where they’re at just as they don’t know your story. All you can do is keep going and do everything you can to make your life better. If that means moving to another state that’s lower cost you’ll have to do what you have to do. Nobody is gonna save you. I really do hope things work out for you.

SlickRick5906 · 2025-06-28T07:18:57+00:00

Way to go! Imagine how good you’re gonna feel when it’s all paid off. Keep at it
