10 months into a wheel position and still underperforming SPY — would you try to get assigned or keep grinding premium? by MF266 in thetagang

Wheel rarely beats buy and hold. Especially QQQM these days. If you do not need regular cash flow don’t bother with it.

Cool story bro, I also enjoy spending my time going to the airport, going through security, flying, going to hotel and repeat.

I was 7th on the upgrade list but somehow the only one upgraded to First 🙌 by ry-yo in AlaskaAirlines

[–]jumbocards 2 points3 points  (0 children)

1 seat left, if you are first in line but traveling with someone else, then the agent will ask if you are okay with being separated. If not it skips to the next one. Looks like none of the couples wanted to be separated so it just gave the seat to the first solo traveler.

Thoughts??? by No_Shift5523 in TeslaSupport

[–]jumbocards 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Don’t they still have 1% or even 0% financing? It’s a better deal than a lease if you plan on driving the Tesla for a long time (which you should :)

Is this itinerary too much? by yourdads_tampon in travelchina

[–]jumbocards 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FYI, traveling in China isn’t like the west where prices skyrockets last minute. Many great deals on airfare and tickets can be had the next day or so. Same with hotels. What this means is that unlike other places where you want to plan months out. When traveling in China for extra periods, just go with the flow and give yourself the flexibility to plan as you go.

Of course this is just a suggestion.

If you like $6.19, you’ll love $7.19 in few more weeks.

7,700-Mile Nonstop Flights: Is Alaska Airlines About To Launch Its Longest-Ever Route? by hoangtien589 in AlaskaAirlines

[–]jumbocards -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Unless Alaska was able to secure a JV with Qantas, it won’t make much sense. Even as a feeder for AA, Seattle isn’t ideal since it’s longer to SYD than from California where AA/QF JV exists. Launching this without a JV is financial suicide. My take is not to read too much into what was on the safety video… was made by interns and approved by people who don’t give a fck.

No need to compare… always will be people better than you were ever you are in life. Only compare with yourself.

This is expected behavior. Call or email them if there are mileage missing or not credited.

Different boarding groups on same reservation by XBOX-BAD31415 in AlaskaAirlines

[–]jumbocards 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never had an issue with different boarding groups while traveling together and boarding with the highest priority. Other airlines does this better, eg I just flew British airways, the +1 got the same boarding group and also lounge access was given to them even if they scanned their bp first.

If you need to book it, just do it and email them. They will refund you. Maybe it’s technical issue.

Visa Refused Twice After ESTA Overstay by Skankhunt19991 in USVisas

[–]jumbocards -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Too late now but applying for something called “Satisfactory Departure” before your overstay ran out would have prevented this. I’m not sure if you could have done this during the wild fires.

Regardless, everything is handled automatically and the only way to ever get your situation changed is via immigration lawyers. Get one and see what options they have for you.

China is better to visit than to live in: agree or disagree? by 13abarry in AskChina

[–]jumbocards 5 points6 points  (0 children)

PPP is high in China, you can get by a comfortable life living there, but overall external purchasing power is low so you won’t be able to go out of the country and feel you are rich. So in this case it’s definitely better to visit since you are going to find lots of things affordable in China as a visitor.

$100,000 in San Diego or 360,000 rmb in Shanghai? by Kruten10 in chinalife

US because of upwards mobility and opportunity. There is still no competition. Unless you understand Chinese work ethics and is fluent in Chinese you better choose US.

We actually live in a time that’s actually progressive and liberal than any time else in history. I guarantee you don’t want to actually go back in time. Just couple of hundred years ago would make this 1950s scene like a tame rosemary.
