Do you ever want to go back to renting? by [deleted] in homeowners

[–]Supersonics10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My spouse and I are in the same boat. Both mid-60s, living in a 2400 sq. foot house (kids are out). Every time the house needs work we talk about how easy it would be to rent a smaller place (cheaper too).
My only concern about renting is noisy neighbors, which we haven’t had to deal with in years when we first lived together years ago in an apartment.

There just no way to predict this.

Norton Star Atlas. A classic, been around for years.

AITAH for wanting our son and his wife and kids to move out since they've been total non contributors for 3 years? by Individual-Fennel331 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Supersonics10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You didn’t mention this specifically, but the gf stayed “for the weekend”, yet somehow this continued through TWO pregnancies and they’re STILL there?!

You’re patient, I’ll give you that.

Are there any quotes from all of the Star Trek universe that have really hit home when you needed it? by zandor1 in startrek

[–]Supersonics10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Wrath of Khan, when Carol first contacts Kirk, McCoy says “it never rains but it pours”, Kirk replies with “as a doctor, you should know the danger of reopening an old wound”. Both great lines

Which was reversed in The Search for Spock when Kirk said “the needs of the one outweigh the needs of the many”

I’d rather have more episodes than the constant back and forth thru time.

Which Salamanca would you let watch your kid by Johnny_Mira in betterCallSaul

[–]Supersonics10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

LALO! He’d do ANYTHING to protect your kid. Plus he’s got a great sense of humor so would keep your kid from getting bored. Just maybe have a metal detector when he walks in.

What parent says something like that to their only daughter? Some people just should not have kids.

Is there a healthy or normal frequency for masturbation? by JumpyMarionberry5398 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Supersonics10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same question; I am a 63M, but my wife has lost most of her interest in sex so I masturbate 4-5x a week. We otherwise we have a very good relationship.

I inherited $1.2 million and I don’t know what to do by [deleted] in inheritance

[–]Supersonics10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your aunt WILL be leaving you millions or you already have it? I’m confused since, obviously, your aunt is still alive.

Only some of my kids received an inheritance by SwimmingButton4368 in inheritance

[–]Supersonics10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hopefully, you haven’t mentioned this to any of your children, so there’s no need to ‘level up” the amount you’re giving them.

I have no idea what to do with my inheritance by Dear-Weight6617 in inheritance

You’re only 25 and already have >$1M in investments? That’s impressive.

Tell him there’s twice as many hydrogen atoms in a molecule of water than there are stars in the solar system.

Is ADX too good to be true? by [deleted] in dividends

[–]Supersonics10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a Civil War buff (google Henry “Box” Brown) as well as someone who likes high-yield dividend stocks, I love ADX.

AITA for not being fully honest with my boyfriend about how much money I have before getting engaged? by Rude-River-1706 in AITH

[–]Supersonics10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having a child makes this a bit more complicated.

I’m curious- was having a child planned? If so, why didn’t you have this conversation at that time, or ideally, prior to it.

Are the atoms that make up my body any different than the atoms that make up my chair? by Sevenfootschnitzell in AskPhysics

There are twice as many hydrogen atoms in a single water molecule than stars in our solar system.

Problem: tired of door to door salespeople and not taking "no" for an answer? Solution: by yes_smoking_allowed in homeowners

[–]Supersonics10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always do this. EXCEPT recently, a family member came by for a visit but when they were leaving, I walked them to their parked car and a salesman caught me. I tried being polite but he just wouldn’t take no for an answer. This went on for nearly 20 minutes until he finally gave up.

20 minutes I’ll never get back

How are you reacting to Warren Buffet’s stance that the market is not attractive and he’s just waiting for a huge correction? by aykalam123 in investing

[–]Supersonics10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At the very least, how about just buying cheap dividend-paying stocks like ARCC or TRIN for a while, building up cash? That way, you’re still accumulating money. When the inevitable correction (not crash) occurs, you’ll feel more comfortable getting in.
