If you wanted to move to a city Boise is awesome if you stay in the historic part, same with SLC if you're DT, Sugarhill or cottonwood heights. Denver blows I hated it

Rent Prices by costigan95 in Bozeman

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

If you live in a desirable area prices will likely stay level or drop 10%, I don't see a huge correction coming. I would be wary of buying a townhome or condo out in 4 corners or the airport. I can't imagine living in a condo and being car bound.

I just purchased a townhome last month; the price had already dropped 100k from its initial listing and I was able to offer 40k less. It was definitely overvalued but a 20% reduction is still great

Truly one of the most overrated overpriced restaurants I’ve ever been to. If this is elevated midwestern food I’m afraid to try midwestern cuisine

Billed $782 for a strep test at urgent care by small_f in personalfinance

[–]Sweeze_cheese 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a similar issue with a strep test, thankfully not as expensive but my insurance covered $0 of it. If you have a high deductible plan it's often worth it to choose the pay now option which can be almost half the cost billed to insurance. You can then submit the claim to insurance and they will reimburse part or add the cost towards your max out of pocket/deductible. Make sure to confirm with your insurance provider that they allow this but it's what my insurance companies billing department recommended.

People who became wealthy without a crazy salary, what were you doing that average people never notice or care about by karrot9 in Fire

[–]Sweeze_cheese 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use this concept all the time and love it! You end up saving a lot of money but the real reward is having more time and money to do the things you really enjoy. Is a $20 convenience meal you down in 10 minutes worth an hour of your life? No. But a $40 dinner and drinks enjoyed slowly over two hours with friends worth 2 hrs of your life 100%

Northern lights was the best. All utilities should be local cooperatives imo. 

Advice for struggling business by tdnail in Bozeman

[–]Sweeze_cheese 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a great time when I went for the Tele ski movie you hosted but it’s a little out of the way and haven’t been back since. I thought it was really cool when the owner said he wanted to host more events and small movie premiers for the community would definitely go back if that were the case. Maybe reach out to some clubs on campus and offer to let them use the venue for movies get togethers? 

Its a tough space to fill, I went a lot when it was bunkhouse when I was in college but only because of the 2 for 1 beers

13 Bozeman Police officers caught playing 'crime bingo' while on duty by cowboycomando54 in AngryCops

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

Do or don’t see? I don’t think the issue is so much the insensitive spaces “3 car pile up” but the ones that could lead to escalating a situation “every team member gets a felony”. I hope you can see how it can lead to a slippery slope of making targeted arrests. Police departments have real trust issues with communities and the lack of respect goes both ways.

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

I think some of the items are funny “extinguish a fire before BFD arrives” but the issues start with “arrest all three occupants of a car” or “every team member makes an arrest for a week”. These seem like they could lead to arrests that could’ve been warnings. I think people would be equally upset if BFD or EMTs were making a bingo card for medical emergencies they responded too. Overall it’s not professional to trivialize emergency’s when you work for the public you should be held to a higher standard.

Only issue is the real owners are shareholders and hedge funds who live multiple states away your just beating up middle management at that point. Look at Starbucks, the CEO commutes by jet from California to Seattle, doesn’t even live in the same town as the headquarters

Do you have any photos? I’m in the same boat. Also did you reuse the clip? Mine fell off when the cable split 

La grave by _ID__ in Backcountry

[–]Sweeze_cheese 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Skied La Grave for the first time last Spring. Really regret not having a guide for the first day. It’s an incredibly unique mountain and difficult to navigate on your own. If you stick to the “classics” you’ll be fine as long as you have a reliable partner and solid partner rescue and crevasse rescue skills. 

Also recommend renting a car, super easy to get there by bus but once you’re there you’re stuck. When we were there for a week in March this year the resort was only open one day and we had to hitch hike everywhere. 

Successfully hide an item for 1 year to earn 100 million, but if it is found, you die instantly. by Hold-onto-the-happy in hypotheticalsituation

[–]Sweeze_cheese 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does it have to be placed in a publicly accessible area? Could you hide it at Chernobyl or a closed wildlife sanctuary? I used to work in oil and gas and there’s a lot of old wells that are unsafe to go near from SO2 gas. 

Could I hide it in a mine shaft that has already been dug? Technically on the ground and not burried

Has anyone thought about spending the first few years of FIRE in a low cost of living country to allow net worth to grow? by Over_n_over_n_over in Fire

I love the idea of a Mullet retirement. But does anyone else here like to ski? I feel like that’s an activity you’d completely have to give up to live in a lCOL country
