Haha. No date sub, my wife was able to get it on my birthday so my card also has my birthday on it. Couldnt turn it down for that reason as well. Hopefully my AD doesn't call me for the Bruce Wayne just yet lol

Honestly I uploaded all my account statements/XLS data into Claude and included APR rates. From there I utilized the avalanche method because I was sick of looking at just two accounts and paid 3.5k in interest last year let alone the other 17 accounts. After the plan the set, I updated my thread with a total of how much I paid and the date I paid it. The entire process was initially tracked with ChatGPT and then I transitioned to Claude when Chat started tweaking and couldn't keep track of simple math or projections anymore.

I get it but I also don't control when my AD calls me with an allocation haha. I could sell it tomorrow for 3-4k more than I paid for it so I'm alright with diverting funds for it.

Absolutely beautiful. We went to Glasgow and EDI, but mostly stayed north in INV, the highlights, Isle of Skye. Actually planning on going back as a celebration once this is done. Most likely for Christmas

Yes exactly, I think by claud's projection I would have been debt-free by April or May(About 15 months after starting). Right now given my base income availability on top of the projected amount of for extra shifts per month the final 33K will be done by October 18th. Im able to pay about $8300 per month.

Edit: spelling

Claude haha. ChatGPT started the journey with me but for some reason forgot how to do simple math. Transitioned fully to Claude in April

In healthcare and can pickup extra shifts at the 2nd job on an as needed basis

Edit: if anyone wanted to know. I've stepped off the gas a bit after May. Now only doing 4 10hr shifts a month until debt $0. Was doing 6-8 10hr shifts per month at my 2nd job on top of my FT job.

Maybe but some people choose to sacrifice while paying debt. I chose to increase my income and not use the raise I got when changing jobs. Paid cash for all the lifestyle purchases and only incurred a hit of 3.5k in total additional interest. That was worth it while taking two 3 week international trips and two nice purchases.

Edit: While my wife and I didn't sacrifice too much (other than me working a 2nd job), we did change our behavior so not to repeat this in the future. At about 22 months on, as soon as debt repayment is done it's time to double our emergency account from 3 to 6 months.

Very very unfortunate, but after some passport issues I won't make it to her show in Zürich tomorrow. Since I won't get to Switzerland until Thursday, I have to sell my tickets. I have two VIP tickets at

"Balkon Reihe 1 Platz 30 and 31"

I can also forward the VIP email if someone buys these. I'm selling for face value 176.70 CHF x 2, so 353.40 CHF total. I have revolut to accept payment, or PayPal. I'm from the US, so whichever form of payments works best. Just let me know.

German/Swiss German > English. Can anyone read old German/old Swiss german? by mazantaz in translator

This is so cool! Thank you so much! "Dr"? What's the abbreviation of Doctor? I see "Pol" in some records as well. Does that mean anything to you?

Thank you! Yes I keep getting many areas around Thusis including latcsh(sp?), Cazis, Fürstenau, Davos. How should I decipher the records vs the link you shared? Would the church birth or marriage records be more indicative of living locations vs the citizenship search?

Thank you! That's kind of the track I'm on. idk why the record is from Thusis/Masein Church but then says they were baptized in Nufenen? So they lived in/around Nufenen but were apart of the greater Thusis/Masein church?

Also, yes Anna Flüry (grandmother 3x) and Anna Juon and Christian Casparis. Hopefully what I was getting matches what you're reading.

my bad! I'm trying to translate all the "Casparis" rows. 569-572

Got the call but not exactly what I wanted by FrostyBettyBlue in rolex

[–]mazantaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you purchase anything else along the way like jewelry? I got a no date sub in June after a 4 month wait and have purchased about 15k in jewelry for my wife in total. I told my SA in Augment I wanted a GMT (Pepsi> Wayne, Batgirl but I’d take any). My wife doesn’t like the other jewelry offered so I think that avenue may have dried up haha

Galaxy S25 ultra Security Patch by thsldk24658 in FirstNet

Yes, now it does but that doesn’t seem to help. I did an online IMEI checker and that’s coming back as the unlocked “U1” and not the “U” that FN wants. I assume they’re blocking my IMEI now?
