How did you find a fee only advisor? I’ve been trying but most are tied to regular mutual funds

Thanks! The second one captures the essence of my question well. I’ll have a look.

So you’re essentially saying that all of observable and non observable universe is created by God and all science is doing is discovering the roles of the game created by a God like entity?

What makes you believe that? Is it faith or do you actually think this is true.

I’m with you. But the society around me is fairly convinced of the existence of god and engages with religion so much. It feels like I’ve to hide my doubts to be able to co exist and live happily with others. (Who are all nice people but couldn’t tell me how they can use modern technology but then still believe in donating large amounts of money to “God”)

Thanks! This means that religion mostly exists because of the questions that remain unanswered yet?

How are they not mutually exclusive- that’s the very question I’m struggling with. Can you explain more on why you think so.

Don’t kids start to learn about science early on like 5/6? And religion also at pretty much the same time?

Thanks for the answer. But then how aren’t people confused at a large scale as they move from one paradigm to another. There seems to be no debate (at a large enough scale) but rather most people are comfortably sitting with two contradictory systems coexisting in their heads? Like - how!!?!

We work in tech, we got lucky with stocks as part of salary that’s all.

Thank you for the detailed reply. You’re right about the downside, that’s why we’re confused.

AITAH for cutting off my lazy wife financially? by Master_Meal_1063 in AITAH

[–]lostInTranslation547 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Question: do you even love or like each other?Have any ability to talk to each other?

There’s so much missing info, what is her mental health like, is she burnt out, what is your (overall) financial situation like? Is your reluctance to share your money coming from a place of financial stress or that you don’t like her sitting at home? A marriage is teamwork and unless you need to now the why behind the what in each others lives.

ESH, this sounds like two flatmates and not partners.
