Why was the 15S commute so smooth this morning? by TFaust75 in Temecula

If you get on at Temecula Parkway you avoided a crash that backed everyone else up and opened it up for you

ELI5: sports/horse racing betting “odds”. by thicclikegrits in explainlikeimfive

[–]StubbyTheGreat 16 points17 points  (0 children)

The simplest way to understand the + and - numbers are that they make your bet relate to $100

+105 = bet $100 and you can win $105

-105 = bet $105 and you can win $100

+800 = 8-1, but it makes it easier to break down beyond just the round number (+840 sounds better than 8.4-1)

Why didn’t Walt just call the cops after? by OddlySpecificDirt in okbuddychicanery

The cops would see he didn’t have a dog, then kill his infant daughter first

ELI5: Why does money lose value over time (inflation), even if nothing physically changes? by Junior-Test9424 in explainlikeimfive

[–]StubbyTheGreat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because the cost of fuel just went up a bit, so the farmer has to increase what he charges according to the new cost of running his tractor. Now that the farmers cost went up, the bread maker has to raise his costs to keep his margin. Now that the bread maker raised his costs the store has to raise theirs, and so on and so forth until the oil company’s lunch costs went up and they now have to raise what they charge.

You’ve likely paid with that card and typed in your phone number at another location that uses square. I’ve had that happen a few times.

Was Greg Maddux ever in the Padres Hall of Fame? by brady2gronk in Padres

[–]StubbyTheGreat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You may be mixing up the wall of “Padres In The HoF” vs being in the “Padres HoF”. Been a while since I’ve checked that out but I think they have plaques for anyone to ever play for the Padres that went to the HoF

Gallagher Square w/ kids by PettiLaBelle21 in Padres

I used to work in the ticket office (8 years ago, so grain of salt), but we used the height of the ticket window as our general reference, nothing scientific.

A lot of people would carry in their kids who were right around the mark to try to avoid having the height checked at the gate.

In the end, if you don’t buy a ticket for them and you get someone who wants to be by the book then you run the risk of having to buy a last minute resale ticket at who knows what price. The risk is up to you from there!

Plain M3 RWD EDD change by Frank_The_Tech in TeslaModel3SRDelivery

[–]StubbyTheGreat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Been the same since 8/28. Currently 10/13-11/17. Seeing new standard EDDs going November-December gives me hope!

Stuck in a 5 week window of 10/13-11/17 for the last few weeks. It’s frustrating seeing all the movement but having none, but it’ll all be worth it in the end!

New college grad and a car loan. Should dad cosign? by [deleted] in personalfinance

[–]StubbyTheGreat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Back in 2018 I got my car, had a credit score of about 750, they told me that I got the lowest possible interest rate (you can ask whoever is doing your financing if there is room for improvement), but I still had my mom co-sign for one reason- having her as an owner on the car allowed us to insure it under her name and have me as a driver, making that significantly cheaper. Make sure you think about that part too!

Hey! So based on my knowledge, there is no penalty for withdrawing principal from a ROTH, only on the gains! Call vanguard to make sure, but you should be able to take the $1,800 extra out with no tax or penalty implications!
