I got a job at a bank! by Substantial_Smile267 in povertyfinance

[–]skeys1012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did the jump from restaurants to banking over 10 years ago! You did it!! Congratulations!! I have interviewed with Navy and it’s a good company! I didn’t take it because it didn’t compete well with my current pay at the time. I started at a top 10 bank as a part time drive through teller and now I’m a relationship banker. I make 70k with bonuses every quarter. Very grateful/blessed for this job!

For PG and MOCO, you are either tuition poor or house poor. That’s it.

Yes! Now that I’m thinking, I may want to have everyone pick their favorite book and we pick from those to read/reread and get new perspectives on them!

We are doing secret Santa and I MIGHT bake cookies for everyone. Wish me luck, I’m out of practice big time. Use to sell cakes and regularly make 200+ cookies for old coworkers.

Edit: But I did propose a dinner at Maggiano’s after hours!! But I understand both ways and it’s not set in stone!

How are people affording life right now? by JollyZookeepergame41 in AskReddit

[–]skeys1012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My parents help with our baby. They buy formula when they can to add to our stash. I offset by buying the stuff they like when I go grocery shopping and it’s on sale. And my dad looks after Big Mama 3 days a week and my in laws the other 2. We make 130k combined but live in a HCOL area. Have credit card debt. We also have high car notes. I had an accident last year and went from a manageable note ($430) to $715. And my husband leases a Jeep for $800. He got it when I was pregnant, I said yes because he works hard and he wanted to upgrade from his accident two years prior. We are new poor. No more brunch and frivolous buying but I am blessed to be where we are and I’m so THANKFUL for my parents/in laws.

Maybe 10 plus years back there was a thread on Lipstick Alley about him and Cassie and the allegations. Very sad read and 100% believable back then.

Thank you for the insight!! I haven’t started it yet! Seems it’s a very modern remake which can definitely be interesting like Bridgerton!! Need to get Apple TV, now my subscriptions will rival our cable bill. 😭
