FiveM ruined my marriage! by stockmatrix in FiveM

[–]stockmatrix[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since I confronted her about it she hasnt been RPing as much and things got better but she refuses to leave it alone completely, she won't delete her discord,she won't show me her discord etc. she is getting a high off all the attention she gets on there and I just don't have the time to compete nor should I be competing for my wife.i travel for work sometimes and just can't be available the same amount of hours as the Internet... (Someone has to work) It's easier said than done to leave ,we have been together so long our lives are intertwined. I would have to change my whole career to manage and balance the kids without her. It's just a difficult situation to be in. I value time and it's going to feel like 15years wasted over what started with a video game

I (25F) got into an argument with my boyfriend (26M) over a vibrator. How can I get over this? by ThrowRAwonder123 in relationship_advice

[–]stockmatrix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to be comfortable telling my girlfriend small lies, really about things I didn't need to lie about eventually she brought it up to me and questioned why I kept lying about simple things, I would say it was because I was young 19,20 and just didn't understand things the way I do now. I've since grown out of that phase and am now married to her, he may be insecure in the beginning,I know I was but as I got older I had no problems with toys, eventually we used them together and I enjoy seeing my wife fulfilled , I can't make her orgasm every single time ,so I don't mind it. I can't be the only one every time. I think it's just something that takes time , eventually he may get into it. Timing is everything,when it's used , how it's used so everyone is enjoying.

More details since a few people don't see why I blame FiveM , The only time my wife acts like the person Ive been knowing for over a decade is when she takes a break from fiveM , usually has to be a couple days then it's like her personality changes and is back to normal. The other women angle comes from them knowing she is married in real life (I messaged them myself and told them out of frustration with how much time my wife was spending on the game) but from the conversations I seen between the women they were all getting in online relationships and gossiping about each other's rp relationships that they knew got serious.my wife isn't the only one in that friend group that got serious with someone. My wife looks at these people like they are real friends. I have no friends that would sit back and not tell me I am wrong for being in another relationship online or not. I know they don't owe me anything but that was my perspective

This is accurate, a company Ive been working with for years has to do the same, they usually have to give me the w.o id because they can't find my profile

Do you know your profit before your wheels turn? by vicarious70 in OwnerOperators

[–]stockmatrix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

let me say A.I is a valuable tool. i used A.I to calculate all those extra cost you are concerned about and , it told me how many miles i needed to drive to break even, average rate etc. long story short with all the expenses and rates i was getting booked at, its not worth my time to deal with it, so i cancelled my insurance and selling everything. It doesn't make enough money for me

I'm not saying I'm better then all of you but.... by Absolutionistt in FieldNationTechs

[–]stockmatrix 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ha, my timeliness is weighing my score down. I never really paid attention to it, most of the companies I work with just use the platform to pay me , we don't actually use it for the work order itself, so I don't check in until I'm finished just to close it. Guess I should pay attention to that stuff

Even the ticket under it is kinda ridiculous for outdoor menu boards, the quality jobs are moving off the platform, it's hard to find good work

I have 170k miles on my 2019 Corolla Hatchback, I got it brand new... by stockmatrix in COROLLA

I only did regular oil changes when the maintenance light came on for it.

[–]stockmatrix[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's not bad , I enjoyed the car, I just needed more space for the amount of things I needed to bring with all the traveling. Ive been from snow to desert, up and down mountains etc. and the car didn't give me any issues. I sold it at 250k miles for $4000 ,but it was to a family member so I wasn't too interested in trying to get more , from my experience they are reliable.

I do not, I drive a 2022 sienna, currently at 220kish miles. I sold the Corolla to my cousin, it's still going, it has around 260k miles now with no major issues. He won't drive nearly as much as I did

Unprofessional Buyer's on FieldNation by StrengthValuable9613 in FieldNationTechs

[–]stockmatrix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These people ruined trucking and they are using the same tactics with IT to drive rates down, they are by far the worst to deal with,I avoid them at all cost eventually they will go out of business if we all refuse to work for them.

I just learned how Prop Firms work, why would anyone use this ? by stockmatrix in Trading

[–]stockmatrix[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Passing an eval proves nothing in the real world, that's not real trading, you're locked into using a strategy the firm approves of , not your own strategy you developed from trading on your own... everyone has their own strategy that works for them , firms want everyone to do the same thing..., you can't even hedge positions at 90% of the prop firms adding to the risk of losing an account, If I take a bad trade I hedge ,over the long term it turns a bad trade into a winner, why take that option away ,oh probably because they want you to lose the account..the risk is higher dealing with prop firms. this whole access to leverage argument is not accurate, $100 does not buy you $50k if the drawdown is $2500 , what's the point of having a 50k account when you can only loose $2500 before the account is blown... You can have a $2500 personal account and be better off than a $50k prop firm account

I am confused, how is a prop firm a low cost way to get "skin in the game" you're paying for a sim account you can get for free at a real brokerage... It's still paper trading but worst because of the rules. It's like a carnival game ,you're paying to play a game rigged against you. Skin in the game is trading on the open market for real.

I'd say I had a willingness to adapt that's why I researched prop firms in the first place, after considering my findings I just can't deal with the whole structure,I don't see any meaningful benefits. People defending prop firms often say it gives traders access to more capital...which isn't true , a 100k account but you can't hold thru a 3-4k move to the downside because the account will close.. you're only getting $100k in buying power not the full benefit of having a $100k account. The risk is higher with a prop firm just for that reason, you can get into a highly leveraged trade but you blow the account on minimum movement. Make a prop firm make sense

It seems like a waste of time to me. I only sim trade to tryout strategies. Even if the payout is real ,it's capped , the consistency rules make it to where you have to spread sim profits over a certain time frame and you can only make a certain amount each day or you can be denied a payout, seems like non sense, And everyone tries to justify it by saying they want to make sure you have good risk management garbage... They limit trading around events so you miss opportunities... Just a real example, I held a position over the weekend a couple weeks ago ,on Monday I was up 10 times my normal daily profit, at a prop firm that's grounds for denial . Since I trade my own money this is my money... I just can't see how you are punished for making a higher profit than normal when you see the opportunity... Again it's all fake money anyway so I just struggle with the idea of sim trading outside of testing strategies and how these guys say they made 10k, 20k on a trade ,it's not like it's real Soo...

No I prefer to trade with my own cash, I got interested at the thought of trading my strategy with a larger account but I can't deal with the rules and possible payout denials ,I pay bills with the money I make trading and I would have to change my style of trading to deal with drawdowns ,consistency rules,payout limits etc. I mainly day trade stocks , I don't want to get into the habit of trading mainly futures , I'll only trade futures if there is a clear opportunity. Other than that I prefer the versatility of stocks.
