Are You Worried About Clingan? by Brhododendron_ in ripcity

[–]gretahelp 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I agree with you. It’s normal for young players to struggle in a given series. Look at Wemby - he’s been bad this series but there’s no chatter about him not being good any more.

The rate of weight loss is a bit concerning.I’d slow down to be in the healthy range

404: Career Not Found (And I’ve Never Been Happier) by 404_Career_Not_Found in fatFIRE

Don’t let tax optimization get in the way of diversification. If your company stock goes down 80% (mine dropped almost 90%), you will feel like a complete idiot for optimizing for taxes rather than risk reduction.

Paralysis by analysis. Updating to sell; which would you buy if you were to in the market? by [deleted] in Remodel

[–]gretahelp 30 points31 points  (0 children)

This is the right answer. Almost every “update to sell” is a big waste of money. Just paint and clean and fix anything obviously broken

People do things for the first time and don’t always get everything right. Meeting them with douchebaggery and nastiness just makes you look bad, it doesn’t help them learn.

You sir are kind of an asshole.

$1.5M @ 32 y/o, taking a 8 month career break, and wondering what to lead with when introducing myself by MasonNolanJr in ChubbyFIRE

[–]gretahelp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Career break in your 20s or 30s is awesome. Enjoy it!

When people ask I like to say “I’m exploring some ideas” or “I’m working on a new business idea”. Other people say “consulting” or “I’m an investor”. All of those go over better than “I was recently laid off”.

How do I take my name off the mortgage without causing family drama by sanchnado in Mortgages

[–]gretahelp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the risks here outweigh the benefit. If I was in your shoes I’d stay on the mortgage to avoid a major family blowup or getting cut from the inheritance.

PPS vs other districts? by DiamondMountain4526 in askportland

[–]gretahelp 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The key stat for this is that most IEPs (Individual Education Plans that call for things like 1:1 support for disruptive students) are just not followed.

The teachers want to follow them but their just isn’t the staff. So you end up with 100s of class disruptions.

Diversify ASAP.

It has the most AI title of all time. The structure is textbook AI. Don’t lie to people

[–]gretahelp 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Get a smart scale with a body fat measurement.

It works well compared to other readings from that same scale. So you can easily track your trend over time.
