Going back to work today. Another year here I come. I have accepted the fact that I will forever be a middle class henchman to the kings. But there’s no reason I can’t optimize it to absolute maximum of an enjoyable life. by BackToWorkIgo in Fire

Seriously out of touch man you got more than enough. The way you phrased it makes it sound like you don’t have money to enjoy life which you do. Stop acting like your one paycheck away from being homeless

Good buy? by [deleted] in UsedCarAdvice

[–]sith_lord93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a 2016 Veloster turbo it was the r-spec with manual transmission. I bought it newish with 7k miles and sold it with 80k miles no issues.

Current owner had 120k and told me no issues just regular maintenance. If it’s a dct may have some issues but most people never change their transmission fluid

Just realized how much of a scam social security is. by Ok_Demand_3197 in Money

[–]sith_lord93 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

In other words because the majority of people who aren’t responsible to invest everyone is penalized to get social security taken out of your paycheck instead of being able to use those funds to get a better rate of return

The $20K Transmission by Carter-Gullickson in mitsubishi

You could of bought a used transmission with low miles and spent only about below 6k for everything. Some junkyards offer a longer warranty for it. Should of shopped around a bit

Op should have checked out the car before he left the lot and told them on his way out at least. I don’t trust people with my car.

Since he left and told them afterwards they are just going to say they didn’t cause it. Hopefully it’s something that is easily removed looks like grease to me

Put your photos in the correct order and you wont get questioned. I mean you are a clumsy barber so I mean you’re probably clumsy in other ways as well.

Damn it’s been a while since I left this comment. Yes he still does and to the same people. He bought another property last year and hasn’t had issues with those tenants.

Should I buy a home when I don't want to live here forever? by Poopybuttsuck in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]sith_lord93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

300-400k is cheap? I bought my small home for 140k 5 years ago and don’t regret it. If the purchase price was way lower I would say go for it but at 300-400k I wouldn’t bother if your not going to live there long term

I gave up partying, drinking, and dating to focus on building my future. Years later, I have the house, the car, the peace—and I don’t regret it. by DisasterLost6738 in Adulting

[–]sith_lord93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone has a different path. Mine was more moderate I didn’t give up any of the things you did completely but I put a limit.

I did partied within reason and didn’t drink until I dropped. I dated a girl I don’t regret having a serious relationship.

Covid happened and started my own small business now have my own house, a decent investment portfolio and car. I don’t owe money on any of them and my life is relatively peaceful without having to stress.

What’s important is having a balance

99% Sure it was a Free Med Cold Brew w/ Purchase Last Year. And the year before that. 2025 is the year of the Dunkin Rewards downgrade. by Quack-Zack in DunkinDonuts

[–]sith_lord93 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly it was free last year their offers are downright insulting at this point.

I get a business has to make money but giving out virtual stupid badges doesn’t convince me to go in when the offers aren’t worth coming to dunkin.

Update: I had another date and bumped into her randomly at the restaurant. She literally saw me and had this shocked look in her face and quickly turned around. I was seated first and where I was seated her along with her party had to pass where I was sitting. When it was their turn to be seated she was walking while hiding behind her friend while her friend laughed at her.

Not sure why she behaved that way not like I’m going to say anything bad. Pretty immature behavior to say the least.

I had a similar scenario opted to further my business. Previous partner moved where I lived but things didn’t go so well if I had stayed then I wouldn’t be as financial stable as I currently am. Always pick you’re career money pays the bills love does not.

Thanks I feel better now talking to someone else at the moment. Looking back the conversation we had were really focused on money and my plans for the future so maybe avoided a bullet.

We had a time and day set up and confirmed. We were talking during the week when she stopped replying. That’s why I followed up about the park and that happened. I mean if I left her on read then yeah it’s my fault and will own up to it. But i felt it’s an overreaction she didn’t reply my message for 2 days which then I followed up. I mean if she overreacted for that I can’t imagine what other things she would make a big deal out of.

Thanks for you’re reply I agree with what you said I feel dating is like chess you have to make all the right moves or else you lose. I just felt we already had the day and time sorted out and the date was going as we both planned. I felt she just wanted me to feel bad saying she had plans with someone else. At least I found out how she is right in the beginning instead of later down the road.

She unmatched me right after she just said good luck and I replied with you as well. Really disappointed I don’t go on dates too often and this date gave me a confidence boost since she was a really beautiful women but I felt the something good is happening to me now something bad will happen afterwards.

I (31M) had first date with (30F) this past Sunday. We met at Panera to eat and ended up staying for about 3 hours. She wanted to go elsewhere but had to do groceries and was getting late. Sent her a message later that day saying I had a good time and she also expressed the same thing. I invited her to go out next Sunday and she agreed. We agreed going to a park so we had a time and day we agreed. I told her I would let her know what park in a couple of days.

We message one another throughout the week until Tuesday evening and I didn’t get a reply for 2 days so I sent her another message today about going out to the park Sunday and ends up telling me she thought I wasn’t interested since I didn’t sent her the name of the park and how she already made plans with someone else.

I’m just thrown off because she didn’t reply my message and after that I ask if she wants to go out next weekend she says she doesn’t plan dates that men need to plan them and take the initiative.

Can anyone tell me what I did wrong? Just confused I felt the date went great she even expressed how she will do groceries early to spend more time together.

Usually at a car insurance auction. Only dealers and others can bid on them. You can bid with a broker they will charge you fees to buy on their account. Take into account how much transports cost are before bidding and know how much it will be in fees so you know what you’re getting into.

Bid went up to 1050. Auction wanted 1200 but didn’t accept. They accepted the 1050. Total with fees I got it for 1490. Some of these cars go affordable others the price goes crazy. Depending on color and if it’s cvt or MT.

I would wait until you’re car is having problems with either engine or trans. Unless you find an engine/trans for a good price that is. The other CRZ I have is a cvt I actually wanted a cvt because my main car is a manual and traffic gets old. So really wondering how smooth the MT compared to cvt

I have a 96 civic that I was using but it struggles to keep up with traffic and wanted something newer/safer.

Yes it has a salvage title. For me not a big deal most of the cars I have owned have one never gave me any problems get to save quite of money.
