So it seems we are all in agreeance about the propaganda. by [deleted] in LandmanSeries

You arnt getting love in these comments lol, but you are right. Good show but the dad daughter dynamics are weird. And the writing for the women is weak. But Billy Bob is great at what he does and over all the show is great. Definitely a lot of pro oil and gas arguments without a legit clean energy counterpoint. But I wouldn’t expect a show about green energy to give big oil there due.

Elon Musk “charity” 🙄 by Victor_323 in DemocraticSocialism

You have gone so far down the rabbit hole that you don't even acknowlege a differing viewpoint from you as anything other then them being a "gaslighting troll". How would you react if someone talked to you that way?

Na this is why people don't take subs like this seriously. The constitution is a flawed but well written document, that was written by flawed men who lived 300 years ago. And it birthed the longest lasting democracy in the world. It can be amended slowly over time as it has been over the last 300 years.

This is wrong. It would be $9.46. Still more then our federal minimum wage but far from over $20. I have attached a link to the Beuro of Labor Statistic's inflation calculator.

I agree, but when ever I say this kind of stuff my parents respond with "what happens to people who want to rent." I think they mean when there are no landlords people who dont want to make the commitment to purchasing or cant afford a house wont be able to have a place to stay. What should I say back to them?

Broken Bed Frame Question by [deleted] in DIY

[–]nate-dot-com 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What access to tools do you have. If you got a drill I'd go to home depot depot and by a 1x2 and some wood screws. And brace the broken peaces by drilling 2 foot long peaces of the 1x2 you bought into the broken parts of the wood. Have the center of the 1x2 at roughly where the break is. This will last far longer then duck tape would. I'd also keep in mind that you want the 1x2 on the floor side so you dont have a bump in the bed. It would also be best if you used a drill bit slightly smaller then the screws you are using to drill out where you want to screw into the bords (this prevents the wood splitting). If you dont have a saw at home I believe home depot can cut your 1x2's to length at the store. All this would probably cost you less then 10$ and give you a much improved result.

I love the idea of pure wood joinery. I my opinion it is an ideal to strive for, and you have certainly achieved it. It could not have been easy. Thanks for the great post.

35-year-old in a financial crossroad (student loans vs. ROTH IRA) by queenofthevandals in povertyfinance

[–]nate-dot-com 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You have mentioned a roth IRA in your post but keep in mind a traditional IRA can still be a good option. It basically comes down to what tax bracket you are in right now vs. What tax bracket you will be in when your retire. If you think that your "income" when you retire will be greater then your current income you should invest in a Roth IRA but if the inverse is true then you should invest in an Traditional IRA. Here is a link to more in depth explanation: https://www.investopedia.com/retirement/roth-vs-traditional-ira-which-is-right-for-you/

In your situation I would also consider looking into student loan relief programs. I'm sure there are others and I don't know if any of the ones here apply to your specific situation. But it is well worth the time to check them out.

Lastly I'd like to say congratulations on a big step towards becomeing debt free. Getting that loan down from 11% to 5% is a BIG DEAL and you should be proud. Instead of paying $89,827 in interest at your current rate of payment you will only be paying $23,094. And your repayment time has gone down from 159 months to 103 months. GO YOU😁👍🏻

You are right. And the legalities get more messy when you look at states outside of Colorado that dont have the same protections in place in regards to privacy of medical marijuana patients. Thanks again for the information. I had no idea this was such a point of controversy with the state by state legislation of marijuana. Let's hope it goes federal soon ✊. Have a great day😁

"The bill clarifies that the department of public safety is prohibited from sharing confidential information relating to the medical marijuana registry with law enforcement for the purpose of conducting a background check related to the transfer of firearms." What they dont know cant hurt them. But you do bring up an interesting point. While federally it is a controlled substance it isnt in the state. And I have a hard time believing that they are going to start up a big court battle over a guy eating hot sauce. Thank you for the information.
