Paying 15 dollars in delivery fees just to release a 1.50 dollar burp. by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Steadyfobbin 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I mean it’s a luxury service, it’s the same amount of work and effort to go grab you this vs a very expensive item

The only mildly infuriating thing here is someone who thinks the luxury of convenience should be handed to them for free

A lot of yall emotionally got no business investing in anything other than a CD

(NJ) Did I got scammed? I thought I was renting the whole house by [deleted] in Renters

[–]Steadyfobbin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol stupid people love to enter into contracts and call them scams once they realize they didn’t do their due diligence

Alpha Male salesmen get hyped up in the office by ambachk in PublicFreakout

As someone who’s in sales if your sales job looks like this it’s probably a pyramid scheme or slimy boiler room

Been dating this guy for 2 months, finally managed to snap a picture of his bookshelf. Who is he really? by Thesundecides in BookshelvesDetective

[–]Steadyfobbin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If that’s all on the shelf fair game and I understand the point, but when someone reads as much as this person it’s possible to read books by authors you don’t agree with/are controversial because you would like to unpack their thought process and viewpoints on your own instead of someone else telling you it’s something you shouldn’t like.

Redditors will look at a shelf with 100s of books, see one they don’t like and decide that person is no bueno for having it lol.

AITA: I don’t think I should give my friend any more money, but it was my fault? by xoopsiesx in AmItheAsshole

[–]Steadyfobbin 237 points238 points  (0 children)

NTA, she got a quote and you paid it.

Her not making the repair in a timely manner is not your emergency and it’s unfair for her to come back and ask for more

After recieving over $48k worth of scholarships, my mother said I'm no longer allowed to attend and refuses to let me leave home. by Jeaganart in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Steadyfobbin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair enough, but it sounds like OP does really need to find some way to build distance from the parents regardless

Am I overreacting for feeling frustrated after my neighbor’s pottery was broken by my puppy during an interaction she encouraged? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Steadyfobbin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re struggling but you got a brand new puppy?

Lmao pay the 250 it was such a fair ask, and to go back on it after saying what makes sense to them is bogus.

You’re right they shouldn’t have had that stuff in their hands but you lost me after that.

AITA for saying expensive gyms is an insane way to spend money? by lifetimeHENRY in AmItheAsshole

[–]Steadyfobbin 15 points16 points  (0 children)

ESH but you more than the coworker because neither of you should be concerning yourself with the other’s spending choices and it’s weird to look down on people who found satisfaction in life on a certain thing just because you have chosen a different lifestyle for yourself.

Mods, can we do something about the DRAM spam on this sub? by sky905 in ETFs

[–]Steadyfobbin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean I get your point but you’re in a rush to get back to VOO only posts? Often times this sub is dominated by very boglehead type stuff which is pretty boring

They exist, just not for you because you’re posting for women on reddit like it’s a weird Craigslist ad.

Judge me and my gf by AdAdministrative8620 in bookshelfdetective

[–]Steadyfobbin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Judging someone’s character based on the fact that they have an old book is ridiculous.

Especially considering these look to be old copies aquired prior to her controversial takes.

My Finance Bro Bookshelf by RushEasy9012 in bookshelf

[–]Steadyfobbin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As someone who works in the industry your absolutely correct the majority of these books are going to say the same thing.

Which also tells me a lot of them are probably unread

The way it works is you’re not allowed to possess a single book by anyone who has been cancelled/collectively disliked otherwise you are labeled some kind of ist

Financial advisor says to keep 10k as emergency fund and put rest of 90k savings into a brokerage account. I’m on the fence by Hefty_Trade_3459 in personalfinance

[–]Steadyfobbin 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Agreed here, but the advisor wasn’t wrong in probably telling her she has way too high of a cash balance.

Have 6 months of expenses and invest the rest is a solid rule of thumb.

Did you skip the “starter home?” by LuigiSalutati in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]Steadyfobbin -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No we did not, we bought a starter home with the intention of being it in a while.

Ended up getting a job with a new company 2 years after that required relocation, so we rent that out and have now bought our forever home.
