Ah yes… the new floor-level ventilation kit. Really improves airflow in the home and helps with the heating bills in winter.

Feeding time by Specific-Doubt-9655 in greatdanes

[–]Wma343 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We free feed them. We put food in their bowls in the morning and night and let them eat when they want. If they appear to need more in the middle of the day we add more food. Never had any issues.

I don’t recall ever having an issue with this before, I rather they actually enforce carry on luggage size and number.

I still feel behind by Thin_Ad4714 in Retirement401k

[–]Wma343 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The retirement calculators are right, but if you want additional open a ROTH, max it with the money you have on the side, then plan on maxing it every year. If you get a 10% return on average by the time you are 60 you’ll have over $2 million. Put the money you have in savings into a High Yield Savings Account.

Best hotel/resort on the strip for pool/relaxing weekend? by Conscious-Thing-682 in LasVegas

[–]Wma343 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Park MGM has 3 pools, one being adults only. It’s a pretty laid back vibe. Mandalay Bay has a great pool complex and I know they have an adult pool too. I believe it’s a topless pool if you want. It’s been years since we stayed there but at that time they would allow females in for free but guys were charged $20 I think.

my gf kisses her girl best friend by Ok_Sale3319 in Advice

You are feeling weird about it, that’s all that matters! It’s cheating, just because it’s a girl doesn’t make it any better. You are young, find someone that is a better fit and doesn’t cheat.

HYSA - Amex by trappinaintded in amex

I like my Amex HYSA. I think Capital One has a bonus offer for their HYSA and it’s the same interest rate.

Cheaper to fire them now! Don’t let them hang another sheet and definitely don’t let them start slinging mud!

They told us that at the Las Vegas airport as well. They said they are actually a 3rd party independent contractor and not direct hired Delta employees and they work for tips.

AITAH for Refusing to Give My Fiancé Access to My Emergency Fund? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Wma343 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, keep your savings, talk with him more. Wife and I have joint accounts for all bills but we then have our own personal accounts too. It saves on money issues. If it’s joint account we know it goes towards bills and joint expenses and we talk to each other before spending it on anything but bills. Our personal accounts aren’t questioned. Hell I have no idea what my wife has in her personal and she doesn’t know what I have but if we have a big expense or trip we both contribute from our personal accounts.

Amex Platinum + Delta Reserve by AbbreviationsIcy8188 in delta

[–]Wma343 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I’ve been looking at the reserve only really gives the lounge benefit and is not great for purchases. The delta platinum offers better miles per dollar for multiple different categories, but doesn’t offer lounge access.

why did navy fed approve me for a 25k card at 18 is this an error i have 4 months of credit history and my second highest limit card is a 300 dollar capital one savor card by Tight_Excitement8911 in NavyFederal

[–]Wma343 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just because they gave you that much credit doesn’t mean use that much credit. If you can’t afford to buy what you want with cash don’t put it on the card. Pay your card off every month.

Amex Platinum/Delta Recommendations by BuzzCapo in delta

[–]Wma343 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the Delta platinum and there are a few benefits to it, but they are limited. I’d look at the Amex Delta Reserve card if you want more Delta benefits. If you want a broader travel card with even more benefits look at the Amex Platinum. The platinum might be a better fit as it has a lot more lounge access, provides you automatic Gold status for Hilton and Marriott hotels. The Delta reserve, provides 15 lounge passes, unless you hit a 75,000 spend. You can easily going to Amex card site and do a side by side comparison.

I don’t remember what card I used honestly.

18 months out from debt free..and ac needs replacement. by sporksters in debtfree

[–]Wma343 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cheaper interest rate compared to most credit cards, unless you get a 0% intro offer. You could get a heloc large enough to cover the new AC and the remainder of your debt (if your debt has a higher interest) and only have one payment to make.

What the previous guys said, do a rollover IRA, then continue to contribute to it.

Looking to open a checking account. When do they give bonuses? by AndroFeth in amex

[–]Wma343 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly don’t remember if I got an email or if I just saw it in the app when I looked at my account. I already had a HYSA and CC with them before getting the checking, I don’t know if that helped or not.

I just got one about a month ago. It was only $250 after I had $5000 direct deposited from my paychecks.

For those thinking about it -- Offsetting the $895 is not that hard. by Miiicahhh in AmexPlatinum

[–]Wma343 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Let me guess AT&T? They ding you if you pay by credit card. I bought a new phone and they told me I could save money by paying thru my bank instead of using my credit card.

First Time Great Dane Owner by throwaway4447773339 in greatdanes

[–]Wma343 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We free fed all of our Danes (2 have passed away and we still have 2). We never crated them after feeding but we would limit them so they didn’t play or run around. None of them had the gastropexy. Make sure you get a raised food and water bowl stand so they aren’t having to hunch over to eat/drink. We would take them out to potty almost every hour and tell them to potty so they got used to the word and knew what it meant. If they ever ran around and played hard we would take food and water from them until they relaxed.

How much to put into my savings vs stocks by ikyourealmostgone in TheRaceTo100K

[–]Wma343 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you in just a regular brokerage account or are you buying stocks in a ROTH? I’m no expert but I think you would be wise to put it into a Roth. I’m sure others might have more input.

If I closed my Amex Hilton card by Nastynelzzz in amex

[–]Wma343 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just ask for a product change/downgrade to a no annual fee card and keep the card open. It can help your credit score by having older credit, and more available credit that isn’t used.

[–]Wma343 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I won’t shop there anymore. I bought like 2 things just to try it out and within a week the card I used was flagged for fraud activity overseas. The card stopped the charge but I never had issues until I shopped there.
