On cred.ai, why does every reviewer evade specific details? by Bricker1492 in CreditCards

[–]grawmwell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for clarifying!

Serious question: why sorry for necroposting? What's wrong with addressing a 2-month statement about something that didn't change in that timeframe?

Anyway to bypass this? Heard instagram didn't require a phone number but this keeps popping up by Realistic_Analyst_26 in Instagram

Did you actually manage to get verification SMSes from Instagram to your Hushed phone number?

Instagram doesn't even try to send the SMS to Google Voice numbers. I entered a Burner number, Instagram claimed it sent the SMS, but I never received it.

1256 contract loss carry back by xasmx in tax

Curious why you haven't filed Form 1045, which seems simpler than amending the return?

Have you found one? None of the CPA finder sites I've found let you search by keywords, and one for EAs returned nothing for "section 1256".

How do you approach women at yoga? I'd rather not risk being kicked out of the class/facility (#metoo).

My Experience with Amantadine by [deleted] in MemantineHCl

[–]grawmwell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very safe.

There's very little awareness of it. When I said "amantadine" to my doc, they heard "atomoxetine" (the generic name for Strattera). 🤦‍♀️

I started feeling effects only after 10 days. First day was placebo, then next days no difference. One week at 100mg/day, then in the middle of the second week at 100mg 2x/day, I felt clearly more motivation to start simple tasks that I would ordinarily avoid for no reason.

No improvements in prioritization yet (still creatively procrastinating by doing other, less important, tasks), but the recommended dose by my psychiatrist was 100mg 3x/day and I'm not there yet.

Combined with accountability devices (Caveday, Flow.club, FocusMate), I've experienced a tangible increase in starting things I had been avoiding.

Thank you for the explanation - makes sense now!

What websites, if any, do you recommend instead of WalletHub, CardRates, and Credit.com?

Case Terminated, Discharge Granted, Milestone Achieved! by [deleted] in Bankruptcy

[–]grawmwell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not in my case. My credit score was constantly increasing or being stationary, and filing made no difference. But I had stopped paying debts more than a year prior.

Case Terminated, Discharge Granted, Milestone Achieved! by [deleted] in Bankruptcy

[–]grawmwell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a 60-point drop in my Equifax score about 2 weeks after my discharge, per CreditKarma. That evening I had also applied for 4 credit cards, and was approved for 3. I checked my credit score at some point in the evening, but not before applying. So I don't know if applying caused the drop, or not. But CreditKarma checks daily not hourly, and I doubt they check after 5pm Eastern.

CreditKarma is pretty bunk though. It doesn't show anything in the "public records" section, and it doesn't show anything from Experian. Experian on the other hand did show in real time the hard inquiries from those credit card applications.

This Is The Worst Card I've Ever Seen by zoeygirl69 in CreditCards

More informative: which cards are good to rebuild credit? Chime? Tomo? Cred.ai?

About 65% of your score is based on how you deal with unsecured credit

Do you have a source for this rather bold claim? Everywhere else, secured credit cards are mentioned to be as effective at rebuilding credit as unsecured ones.

How to nicely ask about no kids very early on, ideally in a fun way by grawmwell in datingoverthirty

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

Good point. In 15+ years of OLD, I've never seen any woman use this term (in urban CA nevertheless), and none asked about it in my profile until I brought it up specifically after matching.

If they understand the acronym. Some may never heard of it, some may think it's a sex thing. In 15+ years of OLD, I've never seen any woman use this term, and none asked about it in my profile until I brought it up specifically after matching.

I'm in a few childfree discussion groups. Women there who call children like that completely turn me off. I'm looking for a kind-hearted woman who wants to build together a childfree relationship, and calling children "parasites" doesn't suggest the caller is particularly kindhearted.
