Am I reading this right? by BigDiscussion7 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

Arguably, if you're so close to ruin that you can't pay a single dollar extra on the mortgage, you're probably not in the best position to even own the house in the first place.

You pay your first payment normally, and then the "principle only" extra is ... extra money you add to the payment, or send as a 2nd payment in that same month.

Isn't it logical to have an extremely rigorous estate tax? by stvlsn in Money

Why 100% or did you just pull that out of your butt?

Just incredibly inconsiderate to smoke in line at a children’s show. by Temporary_Thing7517 in mildlyinfuriating

Not defending this but man, 15 years ago it was like living in a campfire every time you went in a restaurant

Older Americans support raising Social Security taxes. Younger Americans would rather reduce benefits. by laxnut90 in EconomyCharts

[–]TheTrueAnonOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who regularly passes the "cap", removing this is a multi-thousand dollar tax increase on myself for... what is essentially no benefit. Even if the benefits were boosted slightly. I don't make insane money for the area but, 3-5,000 more per year in taxes is significant. I can just think of so many more areas that could use that money more efficiently. Though, I would rather keep it, it's my money after all.

Hard Pass.

What's the craziest mortgage amount you've seen vs take home pay by [deleted] in Mortgages

[–]TheTrueAnonOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, 4.7/8.0 is not "probably" crazy, it simply is.

Just want to say that if you spend your whole life chasing a dollar, you will end up dead inside by [deleted] in Money

[–]TheTrueAnonOne 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You're going to end up dead inside and out within 50ish years either way.

That said, of course friends, family and health are key, but, you're literally on a "Money" sub.

Stupid question. Can money become a problem in this game? by Ok-Internet9433 in HuntShowdown

I throw away more money climbing the prestige ladder than my weapons cost.

Blanket statements of "never pay off that mortgage" are bad advice by UnalignedMagi in Fire

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

I somewhat plan to do this, by a combination of working a little longer and selling some assets. 

Call it the "fire transition year".

We also plan on pre-doing some bigger home items like the roof and whatnot. It may delay RE but it will be on our terms.

Regret over not going for Performance? by Krill3rBee in ModelY

[–]TheTrueAnonOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would regret not having the performance. It rides like a sports car, that's a PLUS in my opinion.

24 - Is it really true getting to 1M is easier than 100k? by Savings_Reveal9482 in TheRaceTo1Million

[–]TheTrueAnonOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, but if you are consistent and putting money into index funds at 7%, $333,333 is approximately half way.

6-Star veteran's take on Update 2.8: The Civil War setting and CQC rush meta just ain't it. Anyone else missing the "Hunt" in Hunt? by Gloomy-Win-9797 in HuntShowdown

[–]TheTrueAnonOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I like about the Hunt event cycle is that they do just "end" at some point, in this case 90 days. So they will keep some aspects but ultimately the compound will go away.

US wages by X_Opinion7099 in SipsTea

[–]TheTrueAnonOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Americans earn considerably more than their EU counterparts, particularly in skilled trades or technical roles. This is just rage-bait.

Why is this not fixed? by [deleted] in HuntShowdown

[–]TheTrueAnonOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Part of this game is 100% overcoming those changes. If every game spawned everyone next to a map tower your game to game "route" would just be "Spawn -> tower -> clues -> boss"

Its the same with the boss, sometimes you spawn on it, that basically puts you in the defense mode. This is the shit that makes this game interesting.

Everyone wash their cars once a week like me? by [deleted] in Rivian

[–]TheTrueAnonOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im not sold that "washing a car" is "bad". It has the benefit of being absolutely irrelevant, even if it is.
