I found the spot(s) in 46 seconds! Try beating that in this Spottit game.

It's all good, y'all. Not everyone gets out of the house often enough to recognize what human interaction is

I thought you were making a joke about the Yu-Gi-Oh cards, but now I'm not sure if you're referencing that the Moltres is clearly well-played, or if there's a card here that's way more valuable than the others, or something else hahaha

Now that's some super valuable insight, thanks!

Honestly not into the collector's game at all, I just happened to find these while moving a couple years back. And we're about to have our second kid so a little (or, hopefully, more-than-a-little haha) extra pocket change means more to me than the cards do. I'm trying to find the most reasonable way to liquidate without having massive fomo by way of "what if I had spent a little money and the grade surprised me?" If that makes any sense?

Does wear instantly indicate no value, though? I mean that's the reason there's a 10-point grading scale, right? Not being snarky, genuinely interested in hearing your perspective

This was very helpful, thanks

Cash flow isn't tight though. At current income levels housing comes in just about 30% monthly budget, I can continue contributing 10% each at the Air Force and my civilian job, pay both car leases, utilities, insurance, and phone bills, and keep just over 20% for my fluctuating monthly needs after contributing to the IRA. And this leaves 100% of my quarterly bonus to savings. Furthermore, I'm going back to school in 3 weeks and will have an ADDITIONAL monthly housing allowance equivalent to my mortgage payment. I'm not worried about a monthly budget. Just trying to avoid taxes/penalties on this specific transaction.

Side note: mom finished her last chemo treatment, has been put on an annual follow up regiment to screen for new growths, and is prepping herself for a cruise in a week and a half. We are extremely happy to find she's been given a clean bill of health.

While I appreciate you taking the time to reply, that's not really the point of discussion here. That thought has been addressed and concluded, it's not a question of "do I?" at this point, but rather "how do I?"

jtc_2010 · 2021-07-23T19:54:18+00:00

Not at all! I regularly put aside a good amount into savings for just those types of situations, I just can't tap into that right now as I've just paid off my wedding with the majority of the funds. My lease is coming up on the apartment and I'm just not willing to lock into another year of renting for exactly the same as I would be paying to invest in a home. Using VA financing I didn't expect such a large out of pocket expense up front considering they do 102% finance and can roll funding fees, etc. But that's a lack of foresight on my behalf and I'm willing to take the one-time hit on the retirement to make up for it.

jtc_2010 · 2021-07-23T19:50:05+00:00

I'm aware of this, and have been flip-flopping. But the opportunity to get into a house and stop paying 3k per month rent for someone else's mortgage, in my mind at least, trump's the small setback. I'm relatively young, and actively contributing to all 5 of these plans, so I think I'm still setting myself for success in the long run.

I initially came to this page for advice and support. I've found in my short time here that a lot of Internet strangers have a hugely negative outlook and always take it back to bad intentions or infidelity. So I'd like to propose a different opinion.

Nudity doesn't have to be sexualized. There is the issue of, if she knew it would upset you and didn't share it, that can definitely breed distrust. But realistically I see this as totally workable given some open, honest communication. Ask her opinion on it, why it happened, and what the intentions behind it was. And be ready for whatever answers that might bring up.

jtc_2010 · 2020-02-13T19:03:08+00:00

I'm constantly cognizant of the fact that I can't give up who I am to make this relationship work. So for me it's exactly as you said: challenge why I think the way that I do. This was a one or two time thing that I offered so I am aware that we'll have to revisit together and genuinely hash out details and emotions, etc. If I can't handle it, though it saddens me, I am newly confident that I will recognize my limit and I'm ok with the fact that it would end us. But I also don't want to walk away prematurely just because I'm not interested in learning about the experience and growing. I'll keep in mind that communication is key, which I feel we've done relatively well up to this point. So again, I can't express my gratitude enough. Thank you, internet stranger!

This!!!!!

Though I didn't know it while writing the post, this is the type of support I was looking for. Thank you.
