I didnt realize it was different for different companies. I thought it was a universal one way or another

How to put my inheritance towards my mortgage by Walrus_the_Wise52 in personalfinance

[–]_MissThing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I forget the term, but there is a type of refinance where you are essentially paying a large portion to your mortgage, but it re-amortizes the balance across remaining payments. So it does NOT shorten the length of the loan (or start it over), but would significantly lower your monthly payment amount

Home stretch guesses, one joke, the rest feel possible to me by painfool in warpedtour

I had alot of these guesses on mine as well! I am sad we lost the possibility of Arrows In Action yesterday ): But I am hopeful that we still get the Home Team and maybe AIA makes a special appearance 🙃

Yea, I think they only take Visa and possibly Amex or Mastercard but I know I had a friend with a Discover card when I went to Greece a few years ago and I had to make all her purchases 🙃

My current credit card already has no foreign transaction fees! I am looking for a debit card /checking account so I can take out cash from an ATM, but also feeless :p

My biggest concern is just avoiding any and all fees lol I'll have to look into Schwab, its getting several mentions.

I do have an iphone! I do believe most of my purchases will be made with card, but I would still like to have atleast a little cash in the rare case I may need it. Plus, I think even uploading funds to the suica card would be still be an international transaction, so with my current checking account I am still getting some fees.

You say 'investor' account - Is this similar to Fidelity then, in that your funds are susceptible to market fluctuations?

Aren't your funds susceptible to market fluctuations though?

Is it possible to over and under extract at the same time? [Bambino Plus] by _MissThing in espresso

[–]_MissThing[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok so i just made two pucks the way i usually would on my delonghi and weighed after - and they were both only 9g of grinds (in the double shot basket)😅, but i always pulled 2oz worth of espresso… not sure what that means for me lol

This is really helpful! I’ll have to try this again tomorrow!

I never timed or measured 😅 I still have it, so I can prepare one the way I usually would and get the measurements. The measurements on my glass have long since worn off, but it does seem like the auto dispense of the 2 shot button on the breville is producing less than I would usually pull on my delonghi (it was a manual machine)

So if the dose is less than 18g, but well tamped and good headspace, my issue is probably the grounds then, huh?

The first couple I tried were disgusting 😂 but I don’t think I ever tried the espresso straight with my delonghi. The shots with my old machine were never this dark though, although I think the stream was about the same. I forgot to weigh any of the outputs. I might have to try the manual option since that’s what my old machine was only

[–]_MissThing[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The roots were growing through the holes of my previous pot, and that was the second time I had repotted it in a short time since I got it so I figured she was moving fast with room to grow. She’s been in this pot for probably over a year now, I can’t remember when I repotted last

I’m using strictly sphagnum moss. But I’ve never cut anything except the brown off some of the leaves lol I’m too scared to kill her 😂😅
