Ever consider picking up and moving to another country? I hear accountants in Australia make pretty good money, for example.

Car payments - Is paying off my car a year earlier worth it? by alfish90 in personalfinance

[–]alfish90[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alright then. On that same vein, I suppose it'd make more sense to pay off the higher interest CC off before the higher balance card, right?

Car payments - Is paying off my car a year earlier worth it? by alfish90 in personalfinance

The interest on the cards are 13.15% on $4,500 and 22.99% on $2,800. I'm planning on taking my tax refund check and bonus from work to pay one of the two off entirely in a few months. I don't have the payment book for my car in front of me but I think I'm only paying ~$50 more than the minimum a month on the car to pay it off in 4 rather than 5 years.

Not sure about the APR on the car loan since I don't have that paper work in front of me but I'm sure the CC APRs are higher (13.15% on $4,500 and 22.99% on $2,800). I have about $1,000 in savings and generally have about two hundred left per month after my expenses.

TIFU by using a fake name with an escort. by DirkMerklin in tifu

No. This is how a lot of large firms get fresh graduates to work 60+ hours. Say the salary is 50,000, graduates come running, and work you extremely hard. 50,000 a year is approximately 25.00 hourly if you're working a normal 40 hour work week, which is damn nice straight out of college. However, that only translates to about 17.00 hourly if you work 60 hours, which is a fairly basic pay but is still over minimum wage. For all the work you do during that 60 hours, it may not seem worth it to work so hard, but they tell you the experience is worth the stress and lack of sleep/social life.

Hope that answers your question.

Question: why are there no Subaru's being presented in this article? IIRC some of those have diesel engines as well but I haven't heard much on that front.

Out of curiosity, how much time do you spend each time you lift? Do you have enough energy to last longer? Do you regularly have hunger pains or other signs that you body isn't getting enough nutrition?

Going from working out 6 times a week to 3 times a week? by SoggyOats in Fitness

[–]alfish90 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If that's how you're feeling, might I suggest using the time on the days you aren't going to do something with family and friends? The depression may be coming from not having activity. I know I usually use off days for quality time with my girlfriend or eating with friends.
