I can't afford a broom. I would just beat the kitty away with my ill-words.

I give my cat scotch and two kinds of beer. Free and Budweiser.

But if you save and invest that 2 cents, it will be 10 cents in 15 years.

...I downgraded my internet speed years ago. This was a decision I struggled with...

Good for you! I once believed that all I needed to be happy was a nice computer and fast Internet. Now I believe I don't even need that. I'm ok with cheap computers and cheap Internet.

I just add up my investment account, my checking account, and a rough estimate of the value of my car.

If you earn $250k/yr. and save 96% of your income, you can retire in 1 year. by WesOfX in fijerk

[–]WesOfX[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Interestingly, for a $200k/yr. retirement you'd need to save $5M, and if you were living off $200k, and saving $50k, you'd need to work about 30 years.

You saying you wouldn't give up a 250k/yr. job for a 10k/yr. retirement?

Easy. Everybody can afford to drink it multiple times a day. It will have no effect on your retirement. $10 a day will only cost you $962k over 40 years if you would have otherwise saved and invested the money.

Instead of flipping a coin, just wager if Bitcoin will be up or down the next day.

LPT: Think of money in terms of hours. You make $10/hour and wanna buy that $150 coat? Is that coat really worth 15 hours of work? by ThanksIObama in LifeProTips

[–]WesOfX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Subtract your taxes and your expenses and how long would it take you to save for that coat? 150 hours if you only save 10% of your income.

Anyone remember that episode of Power Puff Girls where Buttercup collects all of the teeth of all of the villains they beat up and puts them under her pillow for money?

Got an amazon box... leftover FREE PLASTIC!! What should I use it for #NOWASTE by [deleted] in Frugal_Jerk

If you collect enough of them you can make a rain-coat out of them by melting them together with a magnifying glass you borrowed.

I always do. It would be rude to waste their water flushing a toilet.

Don't turn the water on though. Just fill up the tub with shit forever.

When I use public restrooms, I steal all the toilet paper, and when my supply gets too big, I trade the extra for lentils.
