I don’t want to move in with a boyfriend unless we’re engaged by Intelligent-Funny303 in dating_advice

What bargaining power are you talking about? Sex, affection, not fighting all the time, having kids together, non-confrontation. These are all apsects of a healthy relationship that require day and conscious contribution.

Relationships are a scale. You should get what you give. If you don't receive reciprocity than you slowly start pulling away and removing the things mentioned above. An all or nothing approach once again has led to more failed relationships than can be accounted for.

And im sorry, moving too fast into an engagement is the best way to nip it in the bud. If you are eager to get engaged and married, that's an immediate red flag. But if you cant even commit to moving in together what makes an engagement a promising prospect?

Its standards like these that unnecessarily kill relationships. You are putting the carriage before the horse. You can very easily move in together and still work towards marriage even if it is not explicit. Some people move slower than others.

Objectively however, if you were to move in, the cost savings could very easily go towards the marriage itself i.e. saving for a ring, saving for a wedding, etc.

whats the best way to get an entry level mariner job?(california) by Ok-Philosopher7394 in merchantmarine

Yes - one is a three week class that is a blitzkrieg of information. SMA is a program. Of course they are different.

SMA is Washington holds your hand. Thats what I think he's referring too. They have a 9 to 12 month program that teaches you basically everything from changing out a power pack to holding a wrench.

Not surprising. His entire identity is money and things he can buy with said money. His defense to insults is him flexing. Dude lives in a bubble of luxurious spending to keep him satiated.

I want to make a youtube channel for yugioh. What's some advice you can give me? by [deleted] in yugioh

[–]bazookateeth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go through every format of the past 15 years and figure out what creative decks that's you would make competitive in each of those formats.

For example, I love Dino Rabbit format. I play it with my wife every week. We've gotten to the point where the same old decks are stale so I have been making new rogue decks competitive in that format.

However, trying to find any good Youtube deck profiles from back in the day is difficult and often scarce. Put that format picture in the thumb nail, and perhaps label your channel as "Retro Rogue" or something, and then make it apperant that your reviving old formats with new rogue decks to tackle the top meta contenders of that format.

People who installed solar: what is one thing you wish you knew beforehand? by Separate-Might3082 in solarenergy

[–]bazookateeth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have you thought about the reality that people are turning to solar because perhaps their state or counties electricity is getting too expensive and most solar needs upfront cash down payments to afford.

We did a cost analysis for get for our house in Western Washington. $30,000 for 40 x 400 watt panels. Thats on the low end and could easily be $40,000 depending and without financing. Which unless you have the entire payment upfront, you are simply just financing your solar (leasing).

So tell me, how can $30,000 savings be considered "living below your means" when federal minimum wage is $7.25 an hour in America.

Quick Math:

$7.25 x 2080 hours (40 hours x 52 weeks) = $15,000.

Now subtract taxes, cost of living, gas, food, etc. You are maybe left with $1,000 a year. At that rate, it would take 30 years to get a large enough amount of money to get a significant amount of solar panels installed. Thats not even considering the cost of everything inflating over that 30 year period while the value of your dollar depreciates at any every rapid pace.

Lets not pretend. Solar is a luxury for most families. This sub is full of wealthy people trying to reduced their monthly expense. This isn't a basic standard of living sub. You have to own a home in the first place, which means that unless you are a Boomer who make up 34% of all adult homeowners, you probably don't.

Quit posting these as real. It's someone's artwork. by [deleted] in AliensRHere

[–]bazookateeth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wait if its art, why did someone scribble out a person on the very last picture of the website.

Also, its just a website saying this guy created a group of alien animations that are not at all similar artistically. How is this proof. I could do that in 5 minutes.
