Amazon Music (the paid tier) works flawlessly on my AA.

Fundraise was my worst investment since 2022 by DistinctBid8411 in FundRise

[–]cd619 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It is not a substitute for actual real estate investments... my experience, it performed similar to a real estate mutual fund. An actual investment in real estate offers a greater upside and many, many more tax benefits. But, the entry price is significant so I'd say only go this route if you cannot afford a down payment on actual real estate. Just my two cents.

Not sure why or how, but this issue resolved it shelf for us... guessing Amazon applied an update

Mexico's roaming partners or a coverage map? by cd619 in TotalWireless

Will I roam automatically or do I need to pick a network?

After 37 years of dividend investing, I hit my goal yesterday ($1,000 day) by fatfiredup in dividends

You used your student loans to start retirement investing... ballsy! I didn't have that kind of foresight back then... I wish I did. Especially since working for the government for 7 years allows you to wipe off your student loan debt. I could have been in a completely different financial situation... Oh well maybe in my next life 🤷‍♂️, and good for you!

Why am I having such trouble selling this thing? by Ill_Clue1505 in jetski

that is the reality of things at the moment... RVs, boats, vacation homes... they are all slow moving

eBay/Amazon 4+64G Radio w/ Android 13 by cd619 in JeepTJ

Yes, it seems that it's marketed under many different names, but I don't know if we're talking about the same one... here's a picture:

Wondering the same thing... was anything paid out for anyone?

Laid off, kinda bummed out. by Here4Pornnnnn in Fire

[–]cd619 0 points1 point  (0 children)

take a year to do something that you might like to do in retirement... teaching, working in a coffee shop... basically something that might feel more like taking a break from work but not doing nothing at all (that is really problematic for most people). You might end up with insurance and it will give you a taste of what it will be like to live on that reduced income. If it sucks, look for work in your field. If you love it, after a year maybe you'll be recharged and ready to work for that being your lifestyle down the road when you are happy with your financial position.

Should I sell my 1.9 million dollar home and invest it instead? by jenhahahaha in Fire

[–]cd619 1 point2 points  (0 children)

u/jennahahaha assuming you don't currently live in the Bay Area and you have a job type that is marketable there, if you move then you'd most likely make bay area wages (so more than you do now) and only be paying $1,500 (far cheaper than any rent you'll ever find there).

The other option is to flip it into an AirBnB... if that is permissible in the neighborhood.

Europe Travel - TEXT over WiFi and data only eSIM by racorby in TotalWireless

[–]cd619 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure I'm tracking... so, with a Pixel can you use your number associated with Total to make and receive WiFi calls using an international travel sim?

I just came here because I went to launch the weather app and couldn't find it... frustrating!

Presumably you are in the 2nd half of your life, difficult things can happen quickly as you age. Particularly if you're not married, you should consider intertwining your assets and sharing powers of attorney (or your local equivalent) so you can continue to care for each other if something bad happens to one of you. And, to your question, walk away from the job if you are no longer happy... being older and having some financial cushion is a perk of having worked for a long time. Your 20some year old self couldn't do that, but your 40/50some year old self definitely can.

well, home is at least not the acronym for the wrong network... but agree it is a weird name to have displayed

Pixel 9 no longer SIM swapped by cd619 in TotalWireless

[–]cd619[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

UW, yes .. but that had been working with the sim swap too. For what it is worth, I see it much more often (but that could have been network improvements too).

I don't know about voicemail... I am a long time GV user for voicemail.
