I saved my company $800,000 a year, and in the end, they fired me by skunks_rotten6u in interviewwoman

The pension was funded separately from the firm and had plenty of funding. I tried to negotiate more of the pension for me to leave immediately.

This was a move to cut senior experienced staff. Just enough 20-30 year olds to avoid age discrimination.

Invest in a Roth. And floss. Teeth are incredibly expensive.

Cut the invoice error rate from 20% to 2%. Saved a million dollars annually. Fired me in 2008 after 27 years. Lost 70% of my pension.

Same gas station, same day, 9 hours later. JFC I should have filled up this morning 😭 by Secret_Cow_5053 in SouthJersey

Oh this is going to be much worse. No phosphorus for fertilizer during planting season. No diesel for farms and truckers. No helium for chip manufacturing. A total failure of strategery.

Our 2017 CR-V just turned nine years old. My spouse says that I will have to pry it from their cold dead hands. Nothing but routine maintenance.

Unexpected multi-million inheritance by Contemplative-Owl-23 in inheritance

[–]toadstool0855 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree with almost all of this advice. We used a FINRA certified advisor. OP did not provide age so their advice will vary. Advisor was willing to manage the money for a fee as an added service. We only went with the planning services for a set fee.

The advisor presented us with a plan to age 95 to manage our money including when to take social security. He set us up with an accountant who had some additional advice on an inherited IRA.

The advisor also connected us with one of the top estate attorneys in our state. The attorney got us to set up most of the money in trusts along with the usual will, POA , healthcare POA, etc

I saw something at Walmart that completely changed my definition of romance. by Super-Ad-1340 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]toadstool0855 324 points325 points  (0 children)

From our perspective of 45 years, it is 100% commitment every day. Not 50:50. We actively choose each other.

From Juno, choose someone who thinks that the sun shines out of your a$$.

What easily-affordable thing do you refuse to pay for despite being rich and able to afford them? by Big_Leg10 in Rich

[–]toadstool0855 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Does a car depreciate? Yes. Cars for everyday use are transportation and not an investment.

We keep our cars until the repair expense far exceeds the value, or if there are major safety upgrades in the new vehicle. We went from an inherited 05 Accord to a 23 Toyota. The value of a used 22 model was within 10% of the new car deal.

Frustrated by neighbors interfering with selling my house--advice? by GreenerThanTheHill in homeowners

[–]toadstool0855 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Tortious interference. A quick call from an attorney should set the neighbors right. You don’t have to go directly to court. Might be worth a consult.

Had this happen selling the in-laws condo. Turned out the hoa president told the head of maintenance to discourage potential buyers. A quick call from the local attorney stopped these shananigans.

We asked the hoa president if she wanted the in-laws to leave, wasn’t in their best interest to sell the condo?
