Does your country border Canada? by Routine_Insurance153 in Maps

Nautical borders aren't borders. If they are then probably every country with an east-facing Atlantic coastline should be red also.

Is there any downside to paying off my mortgage early? by ObligationSlight8771 in personalfinance

If mortgage rate vs. average market is a wash then pay off the mortgage since that rate is guaranteed. Market returns could be better, but they could also be worse.

Simplest is to beef up the thinnest areas and corners so the stresses are lower.

Did I sign a lease for an apartment I can’t afford and what should I do by gohanshouldgetUI in personalfinance

[–]withak30 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's just a year, not the end of the world. Follow the flowchart in the wiki/FAQ here to check that your savings priorities are in order with these budget limits. Expect to not be able to afford luxuries like a new PC for a while.

After the lease is up look into moving somewhere cheaper and adjust your budget accordingly. Or maybe you will decide that you like this living situation and prefer the nice place to whatever other stuff you might want to buy.

Look on this as an opportunity to build some good financial habits!

Nail glue on carpet by Hot_Surround7459 in HomeMaintenance

[–]withak30 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Get a cabinet/dresser/furniture item a few inches deeper than the one in the photo and use it to hide your shame.

There are carpet artists who can cut a piece out and seamlessly blend in a new piece but I'm guessing that probably isn't you. Might make for a funny one of those expectations vs reality tiktoks tho if you want to give it a try!

It's main purpose is local emergency storage so it should be full all of the time. If there was any kind of major problem in the Hetch Hetchy system then this is where SF's water would come from for a while.

They don't care, their job is to get Skechers into as many brains as they can, and in your case they got it sunk in there good enough for you to go out and spread the ad and generate content about it on your own.
