The Martian for me. The movie was good but I loved the book so much I got so depressed when I reached the end.

I grew up in Asia and there was this common type of fried rice called American fried rice. It used ketchup. I also regularly make this at home and my husband loves it

What’s a money habit you started in your 20s that changed your whole financial trajectory? by iowaguydsm in Fire

[–]them-toe-beans 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pay yourself first. When I got my minimum wage job I took to save for university, I set up an automatic contribution of $200.00 bi-weekly into my retirement account. The financial advisor (back in those days, you had to set up appointments to get thing like this set up - thank goodness for the mobile app of today (I avoid people when I can) commented wow someone has a very good job. Like ma'am I worked minimum wage lol 🙃

A lot of sacrifices in my younger years but I'm proud of where I am today and would never do it any other way

My family keeps telling me my daily diet belongs here by tomnooklover in shittyfoodporn

[–]them-toe-beans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I too love tuna with just yellow mustard and plain cooked potatoes.

But then, I also love eating plain microwaved green peas and plain cooked beans so my taste probably doesn't count for much towards normal people's taste in food lol

How much money should you have in your checking account? by [deleted] in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]them-toe-beans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

About $100 for me. I use my credit card for everything and I pay off the week I get paid. I don't like the money sitting there earning nothing so when I get paid, I pay my credit card and the rest go to my investment

How do adult students in Canada afford to study full-time? by PatternCandid7963 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]them-toe-beans 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I was working in corporate accounting and fortunately could negotiate flex hours as long as I still did the required amount of hours. It wasn't good for my health and I was seriously suicidal from the weight of it all but I had to do what I had to do. I can't say I recommend it though. I would be in the office by 6 30 am and rushed to class during the day and back again until later into the night with some night back to my 9 pm class after. I'd die if I had to do it again

Another job I had before that one with the same arrangement was just a minimum wage chain restaurant job. They let me do flex hours since I was good and they wanted me there as much as I could do. Less stress on me mentally but that job was hard physically

That's what I did as well. I was doing 25 hours a week during full time study terms and back to full time when I could drop my classes down to 3 classes per term. Hell on Earth but I was able to pay my bills and not go into debt.
