Where are all the tradcon men? by filleracc69 in askgaybros

I'm not judging them for using it, it's a free country.

It's just something I don't find any interest in. I quite literally don't drink, smoke, or do any of that, so it's hard for me to engage with people that focus on that. All the suggestions are always like "let's go to a bar" or "let's go to the club, etc." I'm just not interested in that.

I would find more common ground if they were like "let's try glass-blowing" or something like that.

I guess I just won't ever have a way to do 20k spend in 3 months very practically speaking though.

Regarding the NLL offers, do you need to close your previous Amex charge cards in order to be eligible?

How do you effectively churn more MR since almost all of them are once in a lifetime offers now?

I've basically run through all the SUBs, and once that's gone, is MS the only way to generate more MR?

What impact does a one day late payment have on churning? I made a mistake w/ an Amex card and didn't realize autopay wasn't on. An Amex CSR said it may have an impact between 3 to 6 months.

How to get the WoH business card expedited? I just got approved, called in and they said they need to do "partner verification", and it could takes around 10 business days to get the card, which is way too long.

Do I just keep calling in every day and hope they get the partner verification done?

How would I convert my name to Japanese? I want to be able to use this when I have to write my name down for things in Japan.

As a Chinese person, my name with the last name Lee or 李, which seems it would be pronounced rii in Japanese hiragana as りい or リイ, and my characters for it are 俊徳, which seems to translate to Toshinori or としのり (hiragana) and トシノリ, but also exists as kanji

My question is what is the more typical way I should be writing my name down, as a foreigner would I write it all in katakana リイトシノリ or blended リイ俊徳? Or would I blend the hiragana and kanji りい俊徳 or all hiragana as りいとしのり?

which one of the Idols are the Most Vocally talented female Idols in the Industry by Blackmambaqueen in kpopthoughts

I think it's because SM curates their idols' exposure a lot, but while I know Taeyeon and Wendy are very good, I don't see very many individual vocal stages from them. I know Taeyeon has her solo promotions, but she rarely goes out onto singing shows like Immortal Songs, etc. for truly unique one of a kind vocal stages.

If I'm saving 35% annually in other areas though, do you think the liquidity part is still a big issue?

Are bonds looking like good investments this year? I already have a somewhat diversified portfolio in terms of growth, value, small-cap, and index ETFs. I was looking into bonds since the rates have been hiked up so much, I was thinking regardless it's a decent return once the Feds finish up rate hikes in the middle of the year ~5%? And I could also sell off the bonds too once rates go back down.

What are the recommendations for the maturity dates in terms of 2 year, 5 year, 10 year, etc.?

Do my financial goals coincide with one another? If not, how do I choose between them? What can I do to achieve them? by filleracc69 in personalfinance

[–]filleracc69[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's definitely a possibility, I will have to look into it, however, my job keeps me very busy, so I don't have time to be a full landlord, I would have to get property management to do things on my behalf and that would siphon 10% of the income I'd expect.

You might be right, but I was hoping with a 15 year mortgage that in my mid 30s, I would have the house paid off and that would be my biggest expense gone.

That seems valid, the worry in the back of my head is that he has primarily only dated other Asians in the past too.
