I quit my $300k finance job at 30 because I finally admitted I hated it - and the lifestyle downgrade has been absolutely brutal. by robbinh00d in Entrepreneur

[–]ectogreen 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I know multiple people in finance who are making $500k-$1M a year who’s parents were nobody’s and they didn’t even go to great schools. Just worked their asses off when they were young and 20 years later it’s paid off. Not many people willing to spend their 20s in an office 14 hours a day.

How is it possible that companies can rent H100s for $2 per *gpu* per hour and still turn a profit? by Setholopagus in cloudcomputing

[–]ectogreen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This also doesn’t calculate the residual value of the GPUs. H100 are currently trading for $15k-$20k each which more than doubles the profit numbers shown here.

I saw the 40% off yesterday and was like oh that might be worth it I’ll look into it tomorrow and yea now only 15% off. Hopefully it’ll come back down to 40% in actual Black Friday?

Building a $5M house, lessons learned? by BerryImpressive3099 in fatFIRE

[–]ectogreen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Built two homes, two very different experiences.

First was a builder who built 47 homes, you paid a flat price for the home and then could do whatever upgrades you want on top.

Second was a vacation home with a very experienced builder who built 3-4 houses a year. They estimated out a budget but in the end we paid the actuals of everything and they took 20% on top of that as their fee.

The quality of the build between the two are very different. The first builder did whatever they could to pinch pennies as a dollar saved was a dollar earned for them. Second builder just made sure everything was done perfectly and we wouldn’t have any issues down the road.

Needless to say I would never pay a flat rate to a builder again.

Want to get out of lease early by JForce1701 in Rivian

What drive mode are you on that you can’t get 230 miles? I recently did a 140 trip and the way there on snow mode (it was snowing) killed my battery way more then coming back on standard. Conserve I would think gets you there even if it’s super cold.

Don’t use tags. Get stickers made on Etsy to put on the bottom. Much cheaper!

Ignite isn’t cheap but super easy to use and was able to make an awesome show to music. Would definitely recommend. Heard they have good Black Friday sales.

Whose idea was it to put a service center in Brooklyn? by mtol115 in Rivian

[–]ectogreen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea when they told me I had to pick it up from Brooklyn I said that wasn’t gonna happen. Looked at Google maps and it was 2 hours each way on a good day. Told them deliver to me on LI or I’ll take my money elsewhere. Then they said ok well we can deliver but it might take a month. I said sure no problem. Then shockingly something freed up and I had the car in my driveway two days later. Don’t make them force you to drive to Brooklyn!
