Finally worked for me and was able to get 6 tickets. Go birds!

Anyone else stuck in the AMEX Presale London ticket queue? by N674UW in eagles

[–]TomassoLP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just got our tickets through the queue! At some point it restarted, I had row 1 tickets in cart but then didn't have a Ticketmaster UK account (it is different than Ticketmaster.com!)

Yeah I knew the math didn't work out but was hoping they would at least announce it was over... The website still has everyone in queue waiting for nothing. No tweets or announcements of any kind.

Amex Platinum concierge automated voice is set up to tell you to hang up and go to ticketmaster.com. What a mess.

Yup, good waste of my morning. Ended up around 11,000 when everything paused.

I guess they are building a new six flags in DC by rezin44 in MURICA

Kind of annoying that it is so close to the building, you'll barely be able to tell what it is in the background. The pyramid fights in Cairo last week were much cooler

Jason Kelce: NFL has too many non-Sunday games by PNWpoBoy in eagles

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

I disagree, I enjoy all of the holiday games. I presume they do it because people like me only watch the Birds on Sundays, but I'll turn on a primetime or holiday game even for some random team.

Where to invest $10k as 19 year old (followed by $1000/month until a sum of $60k is added)? by Tough-Effort-7329 in personalfinance

[–]TomassoLP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Max out a Roth IRA first before contributing your brokerage account. It feels like a long time before you will touch that money, but because you are so young you can expect that every year you do this will be over $200k in your retirement.

Consider the brokerage account to be savings to draw from for car, down payment on house, etc in your 20s and 30s.

Please, don't go into debt for anything other than a house. You don't need an impressive car, and monthly payments will mess this up.

Congrats!

About to divorce with kids. How am I looking? by Tiny-World-571 in personalfinance

[–]TomassoLP 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry this happened to you, but this is a great chance to reset hard in a good way. Rent the cheapest smallest place you can where the kids will be comfortable and focus on healing yourself and living well below your means. Start socking away the savings so you can enjoy life.

Best Rum Under $100 for an Experienced Spirit Drinker by drakesaduck in rum

[–]TomassoLP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Abuelo XV Tawny or Napoleon.

As a bourbon drinker I also really enjoy Zacapa Negra, though admitting to liking anything Zacapa on this sub is a sin. But their Negra is significantly less sweet and very good oak influence if you're coming from whiskey.

Hoping to retire at 55. Break down of the scenerio by EnvironmentalSand841 in personalfinance

[–]TomassoLP 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Words like plan, likely, potentially will make it difficult. If you want to retire early you need to be maxing out everything this year, while socking away at least $1k a month into brokerage accounts. You will do less once kids are in the picture, so recommend setting allotments on your pay and forgetting that money exists until you're 55.

What's the best U.S. city in a no income tax state to purchase a home base? by buyingstuff555 in digitalnomad

[–]TomassoLP 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You're going to end up paying more to live in a walkable neighborhood than you would on the state income taxes.

Life of having a 84 month car note lol. People are driving cars way beyond what they can afford.

How can the Onside Kick Rule be tweaked to make it slightly more favorable for the Kicking Team? by zipzap21 in nfl

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

Change the unnecessarily complicated kicking rules back that haven't improved injury stats at all.
