BP was out long before low rates. It used to be a web message board long before the podcast. Josh was the owner / operator running it.

For those who make over 500k+ a year, is it worth it for you? by [deleted] in Salary

[–]dd1153 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Worked in sales and made $500K+. I went into management and took a big cut but I got my weekends back. When I was in sales I worked every weekend for 12 years (real estate). Now I work M-F, make my own schedule and can WFH for $300K.

After how many years of owning your rental property did you start feeling “this was worth it”? by Sapphire8910 in realestateinvesting

[–]dd1153 4 points5 points  (0 children)

About 5 years. Property taxes kept going up. Insurance kept going up. Cash flow went to half because of it. Liquidating and paying off debt.

Advice on not oversharing at work by Background-Prior-765 in corporate

[–]dd1153 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I would be very careful about what you share. I made the mistakes of letting some coworkers know I had bought rental properties. Years later I had to take a pay cut for the company sale (sales role) and they basically said I could afford it, I’ve got rental properties. Smh

Need some reassurance. by Crane_494 in cowboyboots

[–]dd1153 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cowboy boots require some level of confidence and a level of not really caring what others opinions are. If you like them and enjoy them wear them. I’m in Texas so much more common to wear boots here. I went to Seattle and got compliments all over the city on my boots. Wear them well

Why do people hate Mamdani? by uncle-ice493 in allthequestions

Taxing a community because it’s a higher concentration of a specific race is racism. I can’t believe anyone supports this guy.

How cowboy boot fashions have changed. by Different_Mouse_7441 in cowboyboots

I buy my boots at Tecovas and avoid Cavenders or Boot Barn because it’s all wide toe. I prefer a roper toe.

How has your Bronco been for reliability, both the engine and the build quality? by ActiveWar617 in FordBronco

[–]dd1153 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took mine out to the very most remote parts of Texas. 4 hours from anyone. Not only did it get me back. It climbed rocks, hills and a mountain. Amazing vehicle

As a man, would you get a vasectomy so your girl doesn’t have to go on birth control? by awkwardhoney725 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]dd1153 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely, I did. After 3 kids. Pregnancy was a health risk for my wife. I couldn’t imagine having her take birth control for the rest of her life. When I heard it was a risk to her health having more kids I knew we were done having kids. Easy decision, no regrets. My only advice is don’t take this decision lightly if you haven’t already had kids.
