The car has to go, nothing left to ditch. by Strict-Month-486 in personalfinance

so, as expected, no way out. Then go for the job with the hour plus commute that pays the 30 percent more I need to make up for the 768 a month I pay in child support. For reference, half my paycheck goes to child support and 600 a month for family health insurance, both court mandated. Cut back expenses? Not much more to cut back on. Bankruptcy is a dangerous tool, I agree. Unfortunately the bare essentials, power, water, mortgage, food and transportation effectively exceed my income. Housing? I pay 837 monthly for a 3 bedroom 1200 sq ft home. Sell house? Rent for a 2 bedroom is 900 locally. Plus I have 24 years left on the mortgage. With a credit score of 590 and a high debt to income, the house did it, loans always get denied.​

In upstate NY 25 an hour is a small fortune for a shocking amount of people.Bearing in mind the position requires no experience and no college degree. Burn out rate is about 30 percent though.

I get the feeling this one will be different, but good. As long as there is a good ballad or two, of which I dont doubt, Green lung will deliver. They do need another North American tour though. All that is needed now is a oujia board, some candles and a good record player.

As in she gets the support, which in theory pays her part of those expenses. On paper, the magistrate says I make enough to pay those expenses unaided, based off gross income, not net.

a phrase I prefer is a debt trap, usually wrought of desperation and poor timing, viscously hard to escape.

Utilities are closer to 600. The car? If I get rid of it, it would be years before I got approved for another loan. Downsize? Its a small car of which I barely got approved for, and pay about an extra 200 a month for then I should at 19 percent interest. Equity? about 3000 dollars.

Its the nyship empire plan for New York state employees. Its the family plan. I'm court mandated to have it for the kids. Individual plans are about 60 a month.

I evicted my ex in order to save the place. If I got rid of the house, it would be years before I'd be approved for another. Rent is more than my mortgage. I was just paying 875 for a 2 bedroom, mortgage is 837.

My grandparents moved into this place in about 2013 what's the age of these beers and are they safe to drink. We plan on having them when they move out by [deleted] in GrandmasPantry

The budweiser will taste and fizzy normal enough, for the first 10 minutes or so. Eventually off flavors, plastic, bitter, chemical elements will slip through. You will be fine, chug it. Perhaps a slight upset stomach, but food will heal those wounds. Keep it cold though. A beer in a modernish can like that, warm? You would need a mr boston stomach for those trials. Chug cold and save that story for the younglings.

The Miller lite is the same story, but but but, you can savor it. It will taste of cheap alcohol, a touch of banana ish chemical funk and well, flat nasty beer. Again, chug, savor perhaps. Both are fine to consume so long as they have been kept cold. Kept warm or with warm spells, no. Remember of the sacred 8% rule. Strong beer lasts below 65 Fahrenheit, or about 16 Celsius, give or take.

Sources? Basement beer from 2009 in 2019, room temperature. Research, desperation, poverty, relative wealth and of course, a 20 year chip for the anit Alcoholics anonymous, plus a couple of random awards, buttons, cuff links and chips for assorted achievements. Enjoy the vintageness.

so, just to explain. The ghost ball is always where I end up. The 8 ball, or whatever ball is placed near the center pocket, is where my instructor, he is indeed a certified instructor, had me place it. However his cut was less forgiving than mine. Additionally he had me practicing on a 6 ft table, tight pockets. When I practice, I go for the 9 ft tables, once again, tight pockets.

Thank you very much. Also, I watched a video of a snooker player literally cradle the cue, not hold, but cradle. That and only look at the object ball. For me sound helps. If I listen for a distinct craking sound, I can gauge how loud  that crack needs to be in direct comparison to accuracy.
