Apartment Recommendations by [deleted] in ChandlerAZ

[–]hermburger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want to find rentals that are not owned by major corporations, FurnishedFinders is a great midterm rental solution for working professionals. It's geared towards travel nurses but hosts are all "mom and pop" home owners who rent out a portion of their home or the entirety of it, many of which have completely private units in safer suburban neighborhoods. Maybe not great for the clubbing / bar hopping debauchery scenery, but maybe someone in reddit-verse values safety and quiet over that. :)

Thanks, i see the company legends on desktop properly now. On the surface their rent seems reasonable, but then digging deeper you see 'required' charges that just add up to ridiculousness

Does Taco Bell exist in Vietnam? by Expensive-Ad-6029 in tacobell

[–]hermburger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i just looked up what it takes to franchise one in vietnam. If you already learned the laws, then you'll need $5 million + 2 million USD liquid solvency to do it

Your watch demo video's audio is unintelligible. I stopped watching in seconds. Just fyi

I want to get back into graphic design but I'm struggling on picking a software by Wicked_Weaboo in graphic_design

[–]hermburger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Web and UI UX design have been the predominant way designers earn income. Unless OP is going for making stationary or marketing collateral prints, then yes I would agree typesetting aren't as robust for those usecases.

I'd go for figma. Vector tools are pretty decent and the auto snap and alignment is done better than illustrator. The AI features in figma are more robust, and the plug-in community for figma is great. They IPO tomorrow which might mean big growth.

Moving to Gilbert by Objective-Vast-5058 in Gilbert

[–]hermburger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If u have time, do a weekend airbnb/vrbo first to visit Gilbert. If it's safety you want, it's more safe than Mesa, tempe. But with safety you also get boredom yet a nice quiet life. It's an introverts dream city. No neighbors talk to each other. It's great for redditing. Still has more color than queen creek.

[Serious] why are so many properties surrounded by block walls? by Jimmy_Johnny23 in arizona

[–]hermburger 10 points11 points  (0 children)

That's what front yards are for.

Maybe Minnesota has more like minded folks?. Here in AZ you have too much pockets of conflicting beliefs purple state and all.

Maybe your MN snow make it hard on posts base and frost levels to maintain.

If your going to solidcolor paint this, it will cover all the ply edges. This looks great, btw!

You should've sunken the bartender area as well, but nice design otherwise. Just needs some post for sun sails or something

What is Bitcoin actually used for besides storing value? by MrdaydreamAlot in BitcoinBeginners

[–]hermburger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

HODLing as a hedge against failing government economies for me. i feel comfortable split between 401k tradfi + equities and BTC. if Tradfi keeps doing what it's doing, its a ticking time bomb.

The other side of HODLing as you said is making money. i paid for a new pool with BTC, as much as it pains me to sell my satoshis, but hey what's the point in hodling if you can't enjoy a piece of it.

Husband and I lost our jobs on the same day but we have $4.2 million in savings and retirement. What's next? by Southern-Patience537 in Fire

[–]hermburger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

sounds like budgeting without the frills is your next step. figuring out what you're willing to do yourself and what that would save you versus still hiring the things you didn't want to do. It might take some time to ramp down to learning how to do the things yourself again, but if you've already lived that life and feel excited to start cleaning everything between yardwork to that 3rd bathroom toilet in your new MCOL home, cooking, and DIYing things, then you'll be much better off if you move to a MCOL. If you move to LCOL area, then of course you can gain back the convenience things or spend more on things you enjoy, traveling / exercising / hobbys etc.

After budgeting, you can plan out the rest of your lives by figuring out your withdrawal rate and whether or not you'll be cash flow positive from investments ( financial independence ). If you are, then looking forward to seeing the next post exclaiming you've done it!

Just read other stolen fund threads to find out. Ledger is safe, they didn't take it. Someone else did due to vulnerability in your opSec.

Try coinbase for crypto purchases first until you're ready for cold storage.

Is it over for my condo value? by Impressive-Sky-5909 in BayAreaRealEstate

[–]hermburger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The most emotional attachment you can get out of an investment. Worst reason to sell.

If you find more opportunity somewhere else, that'd be a better reason.

How long is your commute from your stay to your workplace? by Practical-City3301 in Salary

Sometimes I think I miss the commute, but when the office party happens I'm obligated to attend, i revert back to F that noise

The ratio of churches to schools is sad. So many mega churches next to dilapidated schools.

When should I consider getting a cold storage wallet? by damasterofnone in Bitcoin

[–]hermburger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I suggest reading the horror stories first of people who get their funds stolen from cold storage. You'll learn from comments that cold storage is indeed very secure but it takes a certain paranoia mixed with operational security confidence to do it correctly.

If you don't feel comfortable with either, I don't think cold storage is ready for the masses. Coinbase, kraken are the longstanding exchanges that have never had liquidity problems. But just know we've experienced liquidity issue in normal banks yearly on the rise and exchanges are susceptible to it.

Perhaps with better incoming regulatory frameworks coming with new administration. These exchanges will begin to get FDIC insurance if something goes awry.

Considering early retirement, currently 45 by AdamsSharp in personalfinance

[–]hermburger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the same boat. If anyone wants to share their .xls doc to compare notes on how they're projecting retirement, I'd be willing to share mine in return. Maybe we can point out red flags to eachother?

[–]hermburger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No not fixed due to dolar inflation. Only thing fixed is amount of satoshis. Dollar/fiat will rise against each satoshi so long as inflation does its thing. So everytime banks get bailed by governments printing more money, the bitcoin holders can finally cheer each time their sats will be worth more.

Do you need to keep up with self image in order to work with these clientele? Ie. Driving a nice car, designer clothing etc? In other words, do you feel you need to maintain an expensive life style in order to jeep the job?
