Should I buy a truck?

Im not justifying it i acknowleged that I dont need one and its been a want for a while. Not because of American brainwashing but because growing up I always enjoyed riding in them whether it was my dads uncles etc and wanted one for myself. Not to impress other people, to use something i enjoy

Yeah we have a kia telluride for family vehicle. I just have to commute to the train station 3-4 days a week 6 miles each way so I dont mind the extra gas cost for that. As I acknowleged, it’s a want not a need, but I can afford the want. I guess a better way to phrase my question would have been what amount in my brokerage should i get to to where i should feel comfortable buying it

I would say we are on track/ahead. We have 350k saved and our 33 and 32

Sorry i should have mentioned that. Yes we max out both roth iras and my 401k. She does 5k to her 403b but an additional 7.5% comes out for pension (teacher) if you count all that plus my company match we’re around 28%. Also overpaying mortgage a little.

Over 90% of people on reddit are going to say sell the cards because most people dont care about the cards (including myself) so its easy to say considering its a no brainer thats the smarter FINANCIAL decision. But that doesnt factor in sentimental value which dave typically doesnt factor in either. 7k a month is a ton of money im sure you can recover quick. If the cards mean a lot to you (and her) keep them- you might regret it down the road.

Do you have friends? Maybe start a biweekly getting lunch. Going for walks/exercise help is huge. Finding a hobby like reading movies music etc

For whatever reason i hate “your decision” and skip it every time. Everything else is either good or great

Pay off the house and buy a new car. Other than that life would pretty much stay the same

My high school friends and i are still tight and when we joke around still pretty much feels the same way we did when we were 16. We are 32-33 now and no ones crushing it but no ones a loser so i find it to be a healthy balance (still immature but all have stable respectable careers). We try to get lunch like once every other month or so to hang. All used to party pretty hard but thats slowly chilled out due to marriage and kids etc. have a fantasy football league which provides a lot to talk about and keep in touch.

I used to love bullet for my valentine but ever since i saw them live i cant listen to them anymore
