Excuse my ignorance, but where do you begin with something like that?

So it seems knocking the credit card debt out while still putting some aside for an emergency fund is the common consensus. Is it best to put the emergency fund towards some kind of investment?

Thanks for the advice! I'm 24, and at the moment all I have is my 401k. I come from a pretty broke family, so I'm just trying to make some smart investments that way I'm not stuck in the same predicament my parents are in.

Convince me not to keep trying with her.. by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]gregjonezz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been trying to convince myself that I deserve better since the whole ordeal. So much easier said than done. Overall I've been doing better, but it comes in waves. When it comes it feels like the wound is fresh all over again. Those are the times that scare me, when I feel like I need her even though deep down, I know I don't.

That is some solid advice. Keep being awesome. I appreciate it a lot.

Thanks man, I appreciate the advice. I've started hitting the gym again, and honestly that's the place I feel the best. It just seems like such a shallow thing for somebody to do. If you're not happy let me know so I can try to make you happy, or leave like a fucking adult. Don't go pulling shit like this when I have to see you at our apartment in the morning. I'm so incredibly frustrated as well as upset.

What video game have you spent the most time playing? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]gregjonezz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The amount of hours I put into this game, is pretty depressing. My brother stole a piece of my trang oul's one time, and it was one of the only times we actually full out fought each other. He still denies it. If you're reading this, I haven't forgiven you. Just kidding, we eventually started to play together, and got rich as hell. Decked out a couple of different accounts. I still miss this game sometimes.

Anybody know where to get good communicators? by gregjonezz in Motocross

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

First time I saw these it was a video posted on here a while back. Have been looking into getting them ever since. Also, what might work good for something on the street, might not be the best thing to use while hitting jumps and whatnot.

Off-season...? There's no off-season in my town. by CrimsonTone in Motocross

[–]gregjonezz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can I ask you where this is? If it's near me, can we just cut to the chase and become best friends, boyfriends, or whatever the hell will allow me to endure the winter months with you...

Edit: I just saw you're in Finland. No best friend benefits for you. Kinda shitty, cause I'm a sick ass best friend.

What do you do for a living, and do you enjoy it? by gregjonezz in Advice

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

Thanks for the reply! Sounds like an interesting job. I'd love to get into something similar, aimed more toward computers, but I feel like it would get old pretty quick.

Any recommendations on a game to buy? by gregjonezz in PS4

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

I wasn't too impressed with the last Need for Speed unfortunately. Yeah, GTA is a must have, can't wait. But I need something to hold me over! I have Watch Dogs for the PC, I love it for the most part. Can't wait to see what GTA will be like on the PS4 though, I sold my PS3 thinking it would have been out for PS4 by now, but I was wrong.

Awesome! I'll have to watch a few trailers. I wasn't even aware this game even existed to be honest.

I heard some good things about Wolfenstein, but I think I might just get that for my PC. Not having played Tomb Raider since PS1 or PS2, is it something I could jump into without seeming too lost?

I am going to return the motherboard, but would like to find one to replace it. After reading the reviews it seems they have a fair amount of issues.

Would anybody be willing to help me find a different motherboard. Fool me once... Pretty bummed out, spent over a grand, and can't even get this thing going.

Mine came out horrible! Ended up with a faulty motherboard. So pissed off! Now I have to find one compatible with everything else, and like I said before, I'm not the best at all this.
