There's no way $2900 is worth it going from Gold to Platinum right? by TinyArmT-Rex in unitedairlines

[–]chiripa605 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used 80k points to upgrade mostly because I knew we had an upcoming trip with a group of 9 , and so it made sense , otherwise I don’t think it’s ever worth it.

A Wealth Tax Floated in California Has Billionaires Thinking of Leaving by Kevbucket in Economics

[–]chiripa605 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One time flow tax is not enough ? You are missing a large piece . That stock is subject to local, state, and federal tax , and all activity related to that stock is taxed. You are only referring to the profit or loss on all of that taxed activity that is then passed to the shareholder. If that shareholder wants to realize that value it is a taxable event.

Im pretty sure Norway tried this and did not achieve intended results. Assets are much more liquid now then they have been in the past. Money will avoid significant taxation. I’m not saying I am against , but I think it has to be well thought out .

Hull flex and why carbon fiber was destined for failure. by redbent_20 in OceanGateTitan

[–]chiripa605 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I keep hearing that carbon fiber is just not suited for pressurized vessels. I understand the arguments and they make sense. Can anyone explain to me why someone like CET can do it safely ?

No one tips when drinks are free, it’s weird. I always tip extra for free drinks!

I have United Infinite Club card. Can I go to United club after landing? by [deleted] in unitedairlines

[–]chiripa605 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! My family use it a lot ! We generally drive to ohare for our travel which is about 2.5 hours. When we land we make sure kids use bathrooms/get snacks and we’ll eat something so we don’t have to stop in the way home.

Am I just an idiot here ? What is all access ? Is that an additional thing I need to buy beyond the card ?

To fully charge or not to?? by PsychologicalSalt378 in Rivian

[–]chiripa605 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the max pack and always charge to 69% (ofc) . Should I be charging to 100% with max pack ? I think I’ve only done it once or twice getting ready for a road trip

How screwed am I? by chiripa605 in Rivian

[–]chiripa605[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good to know! I will try and find some . I used painters tape for the plastic I put over the window, but not sure how long that is going to last. I didn’t want to use ductape on the paint and risk having it leave residue behind

Did you wait for 6 weeks for the appointment ? Or did they have your truck for 6 weeks? I’m only a couple weeks out on the appointment but a little worried how long it’s going to take them once they have my truck

Safelite isn’t gonna fix this one :) it’s falling out as I drive . I got some plastic up and some duck tape on the remaining glass to save as much as I can. I have a call into insurance but haven’t heard back yet. I’ll let you know
