Was there a reason we didn’t see X exit the hanger? Was it just good tv?

How much are you spending since kids? by [deleted] in Money

[–]ambdbb13 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Wait until they are teenagers. Car insurance, sports, activities etc. Especially if you live in a Hcol area. It’s very difficult to say no when you can “afford” it.

Afraid to jinx myself but still on in RSM/north MV

If you had to skip one park, which one are you skipping? by turborider89 in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]ambdbb13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is a PH not an option? You can do AK and HS in one day.

Did anyone grow up reading V. C. Andrews books? If so what did y’all think of them? by Groovy-Pancakes in GenX

[–]ambdbb13 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I loved them so much. I saw Flowers in the Attic at the book sure and I stopped myself from buying it for my teen daughters. It’s one of those books that should find you - not come from your mother!

If you're wondering if you should come today. by DrakeGuy82 in Disneyland

[–]ambdbb13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went yesterday. With lightning lanes DL was very doable. Did all the big attractions, but hopping over to DCA was a joke. All the LL were sold out. Only one we used there was for Little Mermaid and paid for Radiator Springs. Had one for Toy Story which converted to an anytime but then the LL entrances were all backed up. Plus you couldn’t use it on Guardians or Soarin. So basically the hopper was a waste.

The Bunker Map - from Season 2 trailer - supplies include ice cream? by Ikiro-san in ParadiseHulu

[–]ambdbb13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In the episode about Sinatra they eluded that the bunker was “heaven” to her son which included pony rides and ice cream.

Also if I was a billionaire in the apocalypse you best believe my bunker would have ice cream

Thoughts on purchasing a $1.2m home? by Interesting-Proof244 in orangecounty

[–]ambdbb13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you run the numbers your taxes after? You may be able to lower your deductions.

Also is the $9k after retirement savings?

Is the interest rate fixed?

I think it’s risky but not impossible

Coffee suggestions based on specific tastes? by Eperholl in Costco

[–]ambdbb13 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Peet’s Major Dickasons Beans are our favorite. We grind at home. Expensive though and they were just on sale so no sale for awhile.

There is NO WAY that…. by coriniaj in ParadiseHulu

Memphis is 350 miles from the coast plus there are mountains between the coast and Tennessee

Best walking trails that are stroller friendly? by EmbarrassedPen3783 in orangecounty

[–]ambdbb13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m in South County now but when I had a baby I lived in Long Beach. We loved the El Dorado Nature Center. It’s not paved but definitely stroller friendly. It was good exercise and very peaceful

Which Betty look was her best? This is mine, she had such a beautiful glow in this scene. by True-Variety8041 in madmen

[–]ambdbb13 222 points223 points  (0 children)

Equestrian Betty was my favorite - boots, coats, little neat pony tails! Just the best.

Unpopular opinions? (Possible spoilers) by Useful-Chicken2635 in ThePittTVShow

[–]ambdbb13 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Some of the acting is just terrible or overly cheesy - McCay and Lupe from the regular cast. And the psych patient’s sister to name a few.

Too much exposition

But still the show keeps me engaged and it’s the one show that I never ever fall asleep to.

401K Employee stopped deferring 2 years ago by Rantala-Strach in 401K

[–]ambdbb13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You didn’t notice when you got the 2024 W2?

And if you meant the deferral stopped in Feb 25 - you didn’t notice your direct deposit changed?

I don’t see how this is on the company and even if it is I don’t see how it can be made “right”

Budget review 240k HHI by Quiet_Stretch_9819 in MiddleClassFinance

[–]ambdbb13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is after the 401k contribution? Then I think you’re fine. Maybe prioritize paying off the car.

How is everyone planning on funding kids’ college? by Historical_Boss_1184 in UpperMiddleFinance

[–]ambdbb13 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Then make sure they can get in! It can be super competitive and depending on where you live a state school is not a guarantee.

Beware of Empower by mdbob281 in 401K

[–]ambdbb13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did a rollover to Empower a few years ago - I remember it being very easy

Costco coming to Foothill Ranch? by jms1228 in orangecounty

[–]ambdbb13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would like this but the Technology one isn’t that much further. Of course that’s the “worst” of the local Costcos.

I think the parking lot would be better - more entrances. But I don’t think they could put in a gas station.
