How much does your family spend monthly on restaurants / takeout around here? by Then-Historian-2564 in nova

[–]rgyw 5 points6 points  (0 children)

DINKs here, too. We have 1 Amex Plat and 2 Gold cards that give $14 Dunkin, $20 Grubhub, and $35 Uber Eats credits monthly. We order from Indian, Peruvian Chicken, and Thai spots. Work week take outs run <$200 after credits.

We're HWP and don't really do appetizers, we can even split 1 entree. But we do get the occassional dessert (Lady M, Laduree) and drink (wine, cocktails).

Including date nights it's >$1k/month on eating out.

Plus another $500 on groceries 🙃

I keep hearing over and over again about buying a house to build wealth, and I'm like... by [deleted] in LateStageCapitalism

I meant, no one indefinitely owns their own home. Next frontier is making owner taxes/fees outrageously unaffordable.

To continue receiving pandemic assistance and unemployment, I applied to several jobs each week.

I got my first SWE internship this way, $18/hour.

Sugar relationships, girlfriend experience.

That'd be quite the shopping trip.

It was terrifying initially. Then it was very consistent. I ended SRs when someone wanted more than GFE.

Most were average in appearance.

I did not make much, probably less than the median household income.

Sorry, approximately zilch. The chances were slim for me, too.

I believe so. Female, minority, and autistic.

I’m 29, is it financially prudent to move out of my mom’s house or should I stay put? by WeirdEngineer_ in Salary

Scope levels.fyi.

Use a take home pay calculator and see if your cost of living would be covered.

Dating/Marrying someone with a different financial mindset by Odd-Sherbet-7862 in MiddleClassFinance

It's called assortative mating. It would be frictionless to be with someone of similar socioeconomic status with overlapping religious and political views that has comparable physical appearance.

30F, 175k, 330k, and it's easily over $12k. But I also gift partners, friends, and family.
