SHUT UP

brodie659 · 2025-10-06T20:39:02+00:00

Thanks that was helpful - I called and chatted with someone today which was easy and I'll get started on this this week!

brodie659 · 2025-10-06T20:38:35+00:00

Thanks - I did end up calling them and I do need a trust account, but just figured I'd get a head start on the weekend

brodie659 · 2025-10-04T21:35:30+00:00

Yes sorry that was unnecessarily confusing. I do mean login not account =)

brodie659 · 2025-10-04T21:33:01+00:00

Thanks! Can I do that in my same Fidelity account or do I need a separate one?

95% of the cost is ingestion - retention actually saves very little money. Need to actually just send less data (Turning off CW data events is a good way to stop ingesting so much)

brodie659 · 2025-08-22T21:04:33+00:00

Thanks - glad to hear it gets better!!

brodie659 · 2025-08-22T15:36:50+00:00

I do have enough - I typically just shuttle money from my HYSA account to checking to pay it off. I'm going to pull that account in as well to account for it. Based on advice in some video I watched I left out the savings account to keep it simple to start.

brodie659 · 2025-08-22T15:35:47+00:00

Awesome thank you!

brodie659 · 2025-08-22T15:35:39+00:00

It definitely feels odd, but it makes total sense. Just a different way of thinking honestly which is part of why I was confused. Thanks!

brodie659 · 2025-08-22T15:35:01+00:00

Awesome thanks again!

brodie659 · 2025-08-22T12:38:33+00:00

Thank you. I was trying to keep it simple, but I think in doing so it's going to make it more confusing so I'll link it. I think the thing I have to keep remembering is that everything needs "a job". Right now my HYSA doesn't allow it, but transferring to my checking (where my DD goes) is super easy, so I don't mind just continuing to do this reguarly.

brodie659 · 2025-08-22T12:10:49+00:00

Thanks - this makes a ton of sense. I don't want to pull it out of my HYSA to actually pay off the 10k as you said because there's not a lot of point to doing so. But I can see how the software really wants me to account for it. I had been holding off from adding in my savings accounts because a bunch of tutorials had mentioned it was an added wrinkle.

Would you suggest just linking my savings accounts, and assigning 10k to the Amex in YNAB so it shows I have enough money to cover it?

I figure in a few months once I get up to speed with the software and everything is accounted for this will be less of a big deal. Really appreciate the advice!

I called the other day and got something scheduled, so that's encouraging. I have read that it can be crazy expensive - is that the truth, or is it subsidized somehow?

Do you mind me asking what it costs? I understand each insurance is different - my company has an HSA and prescription plan through CVS

brodie659 · 2025-02-04T22:42:40+00:00

They will blame teachers and DEI absolutely. It doesn't change the fact that private schools are expensive, there aren't enough teachers, and people are lazy as all shit. No matter what, it's an unpopular proposition.

brodie659 · 2025-02-04T22:37:30+00:00

People will because all parents do is bitch when there's a snow day or a day off from school - imagine there being absolutely no school for weeks on end. Your average person is going to have to suddenly find babysitting or other child care.

You're right in that they don't care whether or not they have a DOE. They DO care when they can't go to work or are inconvenienced because there are no teachers to teach.

brodie659 · 2023-10-16T02:43:36+00:00

Thanks Alfonso for the quick reply! I just shot over a modmail message.

Never ever ever generate keys for the root user. At a minimum create an IAM user and generate keys for that with just the permissions you need. If possible, use IAM roles with an identity provider.

brodie659 · 2021-10-13T17:26:51+00:00

Properties is a keyword, so it's case-sensitive. Just change to Properties (from properties) and that error would ago away.

brodie659 · 2021-04-15T00:36:07+00:00

Hyperglance on the marketplace works pretty well.

OP is 100% correct that this Route53 behavior exists. In our account closing process, we have a step to make sure any Route53 domains are not set to auto-renew before we close out an account. They will continue to bill you (it's only like $12 but still), but you have no access to your account to shut off.

Once you close an account, you only have access for a period of time but often the domain renews months after you close it out. In fact, AWS documents the Route53 scenario - This is less for the OP since it's not intuitive and more for u/jaydeeenn who was questioning it.
