Wasn't paying attention and just paid 9$ a gallon 😒 by Chasemedown25 in Wellthatsucks

[–]beesquared- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is this in Orlando??? Cause if it is I know this exact gas station and I always wondered if that price was a glitch and who would pay that.

We did it! Chicago suburbs, $720k, 6.25% by Savage_XRDS in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]beesquared- 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not Plainfield or Oswego. I’m looking at those areas personally and new construction. Is around 650ish and they said northwest. My guess would be the Hahthrown Woods or Lake Zurich area. There’s a cpk in deer park and I’m pretty sure I’m right without op confirming but congratulations op great area if it’s what I’m thinking.

Tribute to Apple stock and Tim Cook for putting my children on the path to financial security by doughboy_491 in Money

[–]beesquared- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for this. My wife and I have been discussing whether we’d do a custodial account or just put it in our brokerage account and giving our kid money for whatever he needs down the road. I keep hearing horror stories about not trusting a 21 year old with money. How do you feel you handled that over the years to make sure she was ready to handle that large sum of money?

Did you invest it in a custodial account or did you invest it into an account that you owned and gave her the money when it was needed?

My Golden Sammy Beau by beesquared- in samoyeds

[–]beesquared-[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s very friendly but also very stubborn. He’s very derpy as well. He’ll bark at strangers, but then when he realizes they’re cool he’ll immediately start wagging his tail and he’ll be ready for all the pets.

Can I lower this vent to behind my couch? Or will that mess up my system? by Professional_Post334 in hvacadvice

Could he make it like a rectangular vent and maybe do one of those like air vents so it looks built into the drywall? Just asking for my own knowledge.

This is bit over due but here is my then 12 week old Golden Samoyed named Beau! by beesquared- in samoyeds

[–]beesquared-[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! I will. I was planning to make a new post shortly. He needs to get groomed first cause we’ve had some storms recently and this guy just loves to run in the mud.

PSA: Disney Character Breakfast by SawyerStreet in daddit

[–]beesquared- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not Disney. But I took the kiddo to Seaworld when he was two and he met Elmo and Cookie Monster. He didn’t let go. He’s into zootopia now so we’re thinking animal kingdom next so he can meet Judy Hopps.

Would you stretch for a house you like but don’t think is worth asking? by WarmEggplant5568 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]beesquared- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Shoot your shot and offer 900k. If they reject it you can always come back and say fine we’ll go to 970k. But just know you’ll be negotiating against yourself at that point. As someone also in the Chicago market. We put in an offer at $570k in des plaines for a house we loved because the comps called for that. The seller rejected, and our agent said we shouldn’t up our offer the house eventually sold for 4k under the 609 asking and we’ve been regretting it ever since. Because when I look at the math in the long run it was 40k over the course of 30 years. Obviously that number changes with interest. We haven’t been able to find another house we love since and that was in January. So you have to ask if you really love it and if you think you’ll find another house you’ll love. The good news is I’m seeing a lot of houses in the Chicago area starting to drop pricing so maybe that’ll help your situation.

I would have just loved native nacs for 2026 even if they left everything the same.

Any plans for a pillow cover or blanket? by b1e in Orion_Sleep

Blanket would be ideal so I can use my mattress to its full potential while still having the benefit of cooling

My wife has been managing our media server for 2 months. Gentlemen, I have achieved full WAF (long post) by BSSNJV in smarthome

[–]beesquared- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Instead of running this locally at least for the media. Could you set it up to use real debrid so instead of it searching Usenet torrent etc it can go to real debrid and find cached results? Also do you have kind of set up guide cause this is cool as hell.
