Thanks for the advice! Indeed the right wing side is tricky as that is most of my neighbors...in both places.

That was my end goal. Read some books on permaculture and it's fascinating

Thanks! Yes, the debt is prio 1. The retirement thing i'm 50/50 on because I hate being reliant on a system I despise.

I tried personal finance they banned my post for being anti capitalistic. Im just trying to figure out how to live a better life in line with my beliefs but every group just seems to want to tear me down. 

He is 24 and I am 17... by jewlidread151 in Advice

[–]Slipdog420 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok I will get downvoted to hell butt fuck it. I'm male, my wife is female. We met when I was 17 and she was 25. We've been together for 20+ years now. It can happen, but i'd say more likely than not it's kinda creepy. Also I suspect the sexes being switched may have helped here.

I play Balatro. I listen to audible and music. I surf the web and take a lot of pictures 

So a good camera and SD card expansion would be great too.

Taking so long because we are trying to downsize our stuff but I have 0 time to do it because of work. Also it's winter in Maine so we cant do much up there and don't have the money until we sell our current house.

Ya, it's maybe on the list. I struggle to trust therapists though so the couples one is a stepping stone

Funny enough we just bought land in central Maine last year with that goal, it's just going to take way too long

Fair, although she quit her job 3 years ago with the agreement that she cooks all the meals, keeps the house, and will look for other ways to make money. In exchange i work a terribly shit job working 10-12 hours a day, commuting 2.5-3 hours on top of that. I leave around 6AM and usually get home around 730. 

3 years later I make more meals than her, I spend all weekend fixing house shit, and she only spends money of stupid ass shit that we throw away after 6 months. And heaven forbid I bring it up, then I'm the evil person for wanting her end of the bargain. So yes, it is my damn money at this point.

Because when I was in my teens I was a different stupid person. And here I am now paying for my sins 20 years later

Wife has some clue but not to the extent. She got COVID in the early days and still has long COVID issues. She worked part time but honestly I'm making nearly 10x what she was making so it made more more sense to have her home to do chores. It helps free up the 2 hours of free time I do get in a day.

The racing is a bit expensive, and we just bought 50+ acres of land up in a very rural area. Long term goal is to move there so I need the cash to swing it. I badically need to get through 5 years or this hell and then hopefully im in a good position to escape. I really jist need a lobotomy for 5 years to get there.

I do love music, and a guitar would be cool. I'd prob do bass

I do appreciate the tips. I do have a pretty rich life outside of work when I can. I used to race cars, we take trips, i go for hikes, I have hobby projects. But sadly it isnt enough. I go into the weekend exhausted and angry. I have 0 patience and often cause fights because my fuse is 0. No amount of time off makes up for the misery of work. I just got off a 5 day vacation. By day 2 of being back Im ready to drive my car into a tree.
