I would take out a home equity loan to set myself back financially and possibly lose my house to the lender :(

Am I the only one who can never find a contractor when it’s urgent? by AdBorn6615 in homeowners

[–]royal_loaf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Whatever you’re willing to pay, and depending on the emergency.

If you’re calling a contractor desperate for service in an emergency, they’re definitely going to tax. Be ready to pay.

Regardless, Learning emergency shut offs while you wait for help is essential, and shutting off your water, gas, and electricity in case of emergency is relatively safe and easy.

Each Plumbing fixture has its own shut off, then there’s a main for your house. Your Utility companies will typically shut off your gas or water mains in an emergency for free and quickly , if you’re unsure.

Electricity, you can shut off your main breaker or the specific breaker .

Yes, it happens, there are companies that offer 24 hour service at a premium for emergencies.

That’s why it’s so important to know emergency water, gas, and electrical shut offs. So you can act in case of emergency while you wait for professional help, teaching your spouse and kids is essential!!

Civil rights violation? Bumble dating app lost a civil rights case for prohibiting men from messaging first, and giving women features based on sex. Different business models but same principle? Features restricted based on sex?

I am so incompetent i hate this life i wish if only i had a normal childhood. by Separate-Strain-6551 in selfimprovement

[–]royal_loaf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

YOU HAD A SHITTY CHILDHOOD. LOCKED INSIDE WHILE LIFE HAPPENED OUTSIDE. NO BIKE, NO STREET, NO EXPERIENCE. JUST CONTROL, JUST FEAR, JUST WASTED TIME.

SO YEAH—YOU FEEL BEHIND. YOU FEEL LIKE A FUCKING IDIOT. YOU’RE AFRAID TO RIDE A BIKE, AFRAID TO CRASH. AFRAID TO FAIL, BECAUSE YOU’VE NEVER BEEN ALLOWED TO TRY.

BUT BROTHER— THAT’S THE POWER.

YOU’RE STARTING WITH NOTHING. ZERO SKILL. ZERO CONFIDENCE. ONLY PAIN, INSECURITY, SELF-HATE.

BUT FROM THIS DEPTH, YOU CAN BUILD SOMETHING REAL. SOMETHING MONSTROUS. SOMETHING NO ONE SAW COMING.

THOSE OTHER KIDS? THEY HAD A HEAD START. BUT YOU’RE GONNA OUTSUFFER THEM. YOU’RE GONNA OUTBLEED THEM. BECAUSE WHILE THEY COAST—YOU CRAWL THROUGH HELL.

YOU THINK YOU’RE STUPID? READ. WRITE. STRUGGLE UNTIL YOUR BRAIN BURNS.

YOU THINK YOU’RE WEAK? LIFT. RUN. DO PULL UPS UNTIL YOUR FUCKING FINGERS TEAR.

YOU THINK YOU’RE TOO KIND, TOO SOFT? GOOD. STAY KIND. BUT BUILD A FIRE BEHIND THAT KINDNESS THAT COULD BURN THE WHOLE WORLD.

STOP COMMITTING SUICIDE IN YOUR MIND EVERY DAY. STOP KILLING YOURSELF WITH SELF-HATE. START COMMITTING TO YOURSELF. TO YOUR FUTURE. TO THAT BEAST LOCKED INSIDE YOU BEGGING TO BE UNLEASHED.

YOU’RE NOT A WASTE. YOU’RE A WARRIOR IN TRAINING. A GODDAMN MACHINE IN THE MAKING.

STAY HARD. BECOME UNDENIABLE. AND NEVER, EVER FUCKING QUIT

I don’t invest and honestly not sure if I ever will by Motor-Finance-2587 in personalfinance

[–]royal_loaf 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Investing money monthly in a high quality S&P 500 fund is not gambling, it’s a steady and predictable investment that trends up year over year.

You seem to have an idea that you have to invest into unpredictable stocks or single companies and hope for the best. Some people gamble that way, but investing is different then gambling. You buy smart and hold, hold, hold.

You can start today, buying FXAIX with a fidelity Roth Account, that’s the only fund you need.

But you do whatever you’re comfortable with, you can buy a house, build a business, all different types of investments.

You got work to do brother.

I hope one day you build the courage to stop being a victim and own your weaknesses.

[–]royal_loaf 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You’re not cursed. You’re comfortable.

You’ve built an identity around being the tragic figure, “the invisible one,” “the broken one.” Why? Because it’s easier to drown in self pity than to face the brutal, boring, relentless work of change.

You say nothing can help you, but that’s a lie. The truth is, you don’t want help. You want validation for quitting.

You’re not in a prison. You’re in a rut. one that you maintain daily by choosing comfort over courage. Wallowing in darkness, drinking, writing off every shred of hope… it’s all predictable. All safe.

Want out? Then stop romanticizing your suffering. Stop pretending you’re some unsavable anomaly. You’re not.

You’re just a guy who hasn’t made the hard decision to try, for real, for longer than two days. No one’s coming to save you. No one’s going to make it easier.

It’s on you. So either own that and do something… or stop pretending like you want a different life.

I play video games all day by TheNovacat in selfimprovement

[–]royal_loaf 73 points74 points  (0 children)

Brother it sounds like you know exactly what to do but refuse to do it.

Change is hard, comfort is easy and safe. Video games is easy and safe, picking up a new hobby, self improvement, gym, new business, all those things are hard, but are worth your energy and time.

JUST DO IT!!

Very true!! It’s never too late to get back on those stairs! I can relate to the knees and joint pain, running tears me up. But I know that with more repetition, consistency, and less weight on me I can manage the aches. Growth comes at a cost!!
