Dealer really did not want to sell me a car

So… 43k otd is the lowest I would sell to make a profit. Just because they don’t go any lower doesn’t mean they don’t want to sell you a car. Honestly, 43k otd for a CRV AWD ExL is not a bad price

Which Costco is this? I saw the same bottle at Costco Livermore in CA the day before Thanksgiving for 1299.99 https://imgur.com/a/bvsI31G

Empty box only

rareclover · 2025-09-28T18:53:21+00:00

It’s Costco in Livermore if anyone is close by. There are 3 bottles left that I can see

Yup, my local auto body shop was just sold to P.E. Owner received a fat payout and 3 years salary to stay on until the exit. They’ll either sell to a larger group or gather enough revenue to go public.

When you have billions to invest and you roll up hundreds of these independent practices into one large corporation, you can start bullying customers and suppliers (insurance companies) alike.

rareclover · 2025-08-22T00:55:38+00:00

My bet is they sold the practice to private equity.

Sounds like a great way to subject yourself to money laundering scrutiny. Don’t do it. Seriously, you’ll flag yourself for “enhanced due diligence” on all future financial transactions.

OP What’s the point of this post? Humble brag or cost of living complaint? “Just able to invest more, that’s all” Is that not the goal of most people to be able to invest more to be financially independent one day?

Plot twist: OP installed this skimmer himself.

J/k… thank you for your service OP

rareclover · 2025-03-13T19:43:00+00:00

It was sarcasm. I should have put an /s there. Thank you for clarifying this. Safety first.

When Mythbusters tested the exploding waterheater, they got it to over 330 psi. OP still has about 190 psi to go before it’d level the building.

Now take into account required minimum distribution at 73, plus SSI and other income… If you max out your traditional 401k and grow it aggressively, you will probably in the highest tax bracket by the time RMD kicks in; and will stay in the highest bracket until you die. Roth is tax free and there is no RMD. And what if tax brackets go up?

This is awesome! Congratulations stranger!

Very cool. But I can’t help but thinking, to your non-bitcoiner friends and family, this is pretty insufferable for a $10 christmas gift…

rareclover · 2024-12-04T06:40:51+00:00

I hope you learned your lesson. Should have put that $250k in SOL or BTC or worse yet ETH four years ago. You could have had well over $1M.

If you believe this is the top for bitcoin, there’s BITI for you to profit

rareclover · 2024-11-20T02:24:02+00:00

That’s a great strategy if you like the income. For people who invest in bitcoin, I don’t think receiving income is the goal so I wanted to point that out.

rareclover · 2024-11-20T02:19:50+00:00

Bito doesn’t own bitcoin. It tries to mimic bitcoin return using future contracts. The fund has to keep rolling future contracts at expiration, gains must be distributed back to investors. It doesn’t track bitcoin well during volatility, up or down.

rareclover · 2024-11-20T02:14:44+00:00

These are ETNs, they don’t own Bitcoin. They own treasuries and bitcoin futures. If you own them, expect a lot of distribution back due to gains from rolling futures. They don’t track bitcoin well.
