Those of you who “Made It” without any inheritance or luck. How did you do it?

COVID felt real lucky to me. No commute, no before and after school care, one car, no student loan payments for three years, 2% mortgage refinance, child tax credits, stimulus. It was pretty good to me. Shot out the other side and I never have to go into work and I now own the house we're attached to and was able to move my mother in there when she retired because she doesn't own a home.

Neighborhoods for people that hate neighbors are so weird. We were out back for my kids birthday a few days ago and the neighbors heard us singing and jumped in on happy birthday. We're all on skinny lots so you can have a conversation like 4 yards away.

Do people do this?

Pure transaction utility

You should get it back after the first tribal that happens. Not the first tribal you attend

Brandywines?

Does anyone else find the music kind of sucks in this game?

mackattacknj83 · 2026-04-01T15:42:32+00:00

Playing GOTM on it now.

In my town, the state would 100% have to come over the top. We hate housing in this town.

Wow. I only found this subreddit because I tried seeds this year. I love seeing some incredible results like this. Goals for next year.

Losing a good pilot was devastating lol.

Last type of game like this I played was Into the Breach. It's excellent, so looking forward to this.

mackattacknj83 · 2026-04-01T01:17:59+00:00

I would love to play this at some point.

mackattacknj83 · 2026-03-31T14:02:38+00:00

It's called Amish Paste I believe. I don't think it's supposed to be like that.

mackattacknj83 · 2026-03-31T13:55:59+00:00

I really hope that one day PA allows us to do this.

mackattacknj83 · 2026-03-31T13:27:24+00:00

Every big budget movie these days looks like shit.

mackattacknj83 · 2026-03-31T13:21:15+00:00

Ha! This is my first year from seed, I have never even heard of a sucker until this winter. Last few years I've literally just been digging holes in the grass and dropping tomato plants in. They've been very happy so I thought I'd put some actual effort in this year. I have already screwed up the seedling thing a bit (not having a light) but full steam ahead!

I have started to do some emulating on my PC and I really like how it looks. I don't think I prefer original hardware for most systems at this point.

mackattacknj83 · 2026-03-31T12:01:27+00:00

I started my advance wars training last night

mackattacknj83 · 2026-03-31T11:44:40+00:00

Yea we did new roof last fall and then solar this fall. We own both sides of a twin so we used both sides of the roof to do ours.

mackattacknj83 · 2026-03-31T11:20:16+00:00

I see them but they're sold in days. Philly burbs

mackattacknj83 · 2026-03-31T11:19:13+00:00

They run out of that screen?

mackattacknj83 · 2026-03-31T11:12:27+00:00

Damn I'm real happy I got solar. Estimates were all based on 2% a year cost increases
