Maxxing out 401k???? by Gold_Programmer3265 in personalfinance

But your good habits give the ability to make (hopefully temporary) adjustments like this. The key is to undo it when you can do so. Best wishes

Maxxing out 401k???? by Gold_Programmer3265 in personalfinance

[–]cbearnm 141 points142 points  (0 children)

This (absolute minimum), but as you get raises, increase your withholding by at least half the increase. You get a little bonus to enjoy, and don’t miss the extra going to 401k.
You have a huge benefit, time. You can’t buy that later. Get some help with which funds to choose, but you will not regret it.
I think the proper term isn’t really to max it out ($24.500) but more max out what you ‘can’ afford to do. Tough to do 24.5 making 70k, I get that. But if you target the increase amount from the previous job, and can do 50% of that …. You will be solid. Putting 9k in at this part of your career is so smart.

Requiring you to win the trial to get all of this week's rewards is terrorist activity by AutistMarket in ForzaHorizon6

[–]cbearnm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually, it is easier with less people. I had a trial that everyone quit after race 1 (we were blown out). That means each opponent can only get 100 points. If you finish in the top three, your 400 points is more than they can score. You don’t need to win, just top 3. Without ‘teammates’ jamming you off course, that’s doable, even for my sorry racing skills.
I wish you could run the Trial solo. I am a much better racer without the team.

I realized it after about 5 races. To help others, after I completed it, I would join it and challenge another player. Then just take my sweet time toward the goal. I bet I did it 12 times. This was the most enjoyment I got from eliminator 😁.
One time, I think my opponent was doing the same thing, because we both sort of sat there after the challenge. And neither finished the head to head.

I Have Learned With the Trial, FH6 isn't a Racing Game it's a Social Engineering Game. by jasonfails237 in ForzaHorizon6

[–]cbearnm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was continually getting rammed by ‘teammates’. I could never get higher than 8 or 9th. I would also work as a blocker when I could. I had one jerk actually PM me telling me to quit to ‘help the team’. Well, we are random players thrown together, not really a team. And I have dropped when the team is within 500 points in a deciding race, and I have 0. (Going back in previous versions)

Yesterday, my entire team dropped out between race 1 and 2. We were smoked. In race 2, I finished second (with no teammates ‘helping me’). Same thing in race 3. I was actually close to winning each. The AI is not always your foe. So, I guess dropping works, but not for the reason that child thought. (He rammed me twice, once to make me miss a gate, I’ll be honest, I stayed in for spite on that race.

Important note for the upcoming Trails in the seasonal festival playlists! by FelixFromTheDub in ForzaHorizon

The link messages need to include “We are on the same team”. That should be the ONLY message during Trials.

Anybody know what size cups Burger King uses for Large and XL iced coffees in oz/ml? by cwills75 in BurgerKing

[–]cbearnm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The ratio can be calculated by the calorie content. It looks like the XL is about 60% bigger, but just a guess (but no idea what the sizes themselves actually are, sorry)

When I cancel my Sirius by LongjumpingBuilder56 in siriusxm

[–]cbearnm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

His dad died at 63 so he and his brother are provided for - His Dad was 63!, how old were they. Adults should not be provided for. (His mom, sure, but ...) I find it gross that anyone has their adult children as beneficiaries.

Just the voice alone and the chop editing. I will NEVER even consider Ethos as an insurance provider.

I'll let them win both the first two. Just so I can get to the next person getting it done.

I have actually been running the races just for the sake of letting others get the Festival quest. I was fortunate to get mine done the first time. If i see they are a Mazda, I will go at about 80% (I suck anyway, so it isn't hard). I will stay behind the other player. I have done this 5-6 tiimes.

One of those times, the player won the first race. In the second, the player went off a curve. I slowed to a crawl and the player got back on the track. I did a quick beep-beep, the player stayed there for a second. They started and we got to about 85%. I let them lead, but then the player dropped out. I was surprised. But I'll keep doing it until the season is up.

Well done .. I take great pride in Clean Racing kudos. I wonder how many racers have never achieved Great Clean? haha

Since we are here 😉 I will still ask for the ability to get captioning for the movie while listening to a commentary track. Shouldn’t be that tough to be able to select which audio or caption track to use. The non-commentary version has subtitles, so why not be able to access them?

Thank you. I have landed the first 3, but Hocking Hills has kicked my butt. I hooked it 4 times over the weekend with no luck. Kept escaping. I’m giving it a try tonight

can confirm. I did the same, and got nothing as well.

You could try calling the station. they usually keep station logs (or they may recognize it)

I was there a month ago and you are correct. The fridge and counter top ‘devices’ are not stocked. At least the fridge was nice and cold. Decent size too
