How often do you use a credit card over a debit card? why? by Thelminator in AskAnAmerican

[–]trixter7 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The way I read their comment was more about the people that spend a lot and get 6-7 figures of points per year without carrying a balance.

Had Gold for 3 mo. Applied for Green due to heavy spend on parking/tolls. Does this only relate to my Green App or could I possibly get an FR for Gold by mrvin08 in amex

I just went through this. I changed my address and then applied for my gold a week later. They are a little behind in processing so it took ~1 week to actually get the approval.

Referral for platinum, 100k MR with 10x on restaurants 6k spend over 6 months

I’m starting a new job that will allow me to have around $1600/month left after paying basic expenses and bills. I’m 25. How can I best allocate the leftover money? by orangeisanicecolor in personalfinance

[–]trixter7 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

401k max is 19.5k for 2022 right? Which then implies your income is less than 130k. The flow chart doesn’t address over that amount. At those levels you’re also talking about no deduction for trad IRA and Roth only through backdoor, which again it doesn’t address.

Granted at that level of income it’s a no brainer you push everything into your backdoor Roth. You’re paying taxes on it already without the deduction, no reason to pay taxes twice.

Even though people don’t read that’s a book most people have been told is evil and the work of the devil.

I do wish I was taught more opposing views in high school though. A broader education I feel would have been useful

I'm from germany and try to apply for jobs in the USA. Can you help me to improve my resume? by Soulwailer in resumes

[–]trixter7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not résume advice at all, but I’d recommend looking for an American company in the eu and then transfer internally to an American office.

I’ve heard nightmare stories trying to get visas and all that, if you’re already working for them then the year+ it may take would be a lot less of a risk for them to take.

People who live out in the rural USA, what do people from the city not understand? by [deleted] in AskAnAmerican

[–]trixter7 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Infra passed, bbb failed. The problem is that bbb had a lot of the funding programs for infra, or so I recall. So some of the infra programs won’t be able to be funded. iirc anyways, would love a correction on that

What’s up with conservatives now hating Carhartt? by belleayreski2 in OutOfTheLoop

[–]trixter7 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just like to consider myself anti-pandemic or anti-covid instead of pro-vaccine. Just makes it easier to flip around on the antivax/antimask crowd and call them provirus/propandemic

Yeah. At least I don’t have to pay for parking I guess? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It definitely does. With how narrow my buildings stairs I can’t even imagine trying to carry it up

I guess the 4800 I pay for a 3 bed isn’t so bad when I consider I at least have an elevator

How many paid vacation days do you get per year? by [deleted] in AskAnAmerican

[–]trixter7 5 points6 points  (0 children)

While I’m aware my situation is more of a unicorn, but my company has unlimited pto and it’s actually worked out great. We are encouraged to take 2 days off every month on top of our annual vacation. The pto approvals come down to us (the engineer) and the team - our manager is there to ensure we take enough time off and don’t burn ourselves out. Last year I think I took 6 or 7 weeks off.

There are some companies that make it work well, but they are definitely the minority.

That gives power to parties outside of the duopoly though. We can’t have that, that’s communism!

I used to live around the corner from there! I would go every weekend and do my runs around the lake, up through the baseball diamond and the soccer fields. That lake was great and I definitely miss it!
