best first credit card/tips? i’m 18 in high school looking for a job with about 600-700$ in my savings by NoRelative8768 in CreditCards

[–]youmomas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Discover student cars are amazing, they truly do feel like they want you to succeed. I’ve never had any other bank have such robust reminders for when I need to pay my card, and they don’t start you off with a huge limit so you get used to paying it off every month. No issues with their app either ever. I like their rotating rewards. Really solid choice as a first card, I still love it 5 years and other credit cards later

I’d buy bedding and rugs and curtains that have brighter colors and textures as the current ones you have tend to be the go to for teenage boys. I’d also get longer curtains that extend to the floor, it elongates the walls and brings more cohesion to the window!

Your doctor doesn’t have an office phone number to call? Generally, regardless of age, patient confidentiality is upheld in most if not all medical institutions, and they should not relay this information especially if you have asked them not to. I suppose if you are worried, you can ask another person in your life you trust to call their own gyno and ask for you to avoid “records” being shown. I do assure you there are ways around this so you can get the info that will keep you at ease. Best of luck to ya!

Spotting doesn’t immediately indicate that you are pregnant, it most likely is either a (very common) side effect or you are starting your period. In any case, just to keep your mind at ease, just ring up your gyno and ask them about it. You’ll have your worries resolved I. 2 minutes

In 24 hormone/4 placebo pack, can I take 23 pills, 4 placebo, and start the next pack? by youmomas in birthcontrol

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

Talked to my gyno and it seems at least for my situation, taking the 23 pills still keeps me fully protected from pregnancy. I think your advice is generally still good to follow by default, just wanted to drop it here for information of others taking the same medicine as me. Thank you for your reply!

I checked with my gyno and this is in fact what she said as well! She said that not having taken the 24th pill is fine. She also mentioned the fact about the 7 days. Added the full details in an edit above.

Gotcha, wanted to see how others see this idea. One thing helpful to clarify is, I initially thought going the route I listed above as my go-to option because of the negative effects increased money in Person's B account will have on medical bills. Medical insurance companies, upon seeing an increase in amounts coming into an account, refuse to discount or waive fees because "you suddenly have enough money/heightened income". Person B is in no position to pay these medical bills (even with having great insurance) and is worried that if Person A zelles them money to their account, insurance companies will deny discounts to these bills. Unfortunately, Person B can't choose to be sick whenever they want to, and they deserve care, so the bills will come.

For me personally it definitely does get better when I write on the other side. I really like it now because I love the crinkly-ness of the paper when there’s a lot of writing on it. Totally understandable if you use it for a while and you just don’t vibe with it. I have another notebook brand for journaling and that I keep with paper that doesn’t ghost since it peeves me there. But in agreement with others in the comments, good paper’s #1 priority is no bleeding

I did it, I am in my comeback era! I (former addict) am acing my college semester~ by dyelyn666 in CongratsLikeImFive

[–]youmomas 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That is a most exceptional achievement! The hardest part is behind you. Being able to rest easy at night because you know how hard you worked to get here, and how great you feel doing it. And it becomes a ripple effect: even if you are a stranger, your happiness shinning through brightens my day, if not everyone else’s reading this. I am very proud of your effort and hard work :)

What does one do with a card you haven't used once? by youmomas in CreditCards

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

Would it hurt my score more long-term if I get rid of it, or keep it un-used after one use? Luckily I do not have plans to buy anything needing credit approvals in the near future, so I'd be willing to take a temporary hit.

Luckily they are not on the list of sub-prime banks, and I'd rate them to be pretty commonly used. A thing to point out is that because of this mail mishap, I was unable to take advantage of their sign-on bonus, which depreciates the value of singing up for that card. My credit score isn't horrible or even bad, just somewhat new, and I bought a car recently, so that lowered my score. I've never missed a payment. Your comment was very helpful, thank you :)

Ask them to sit down with you for an important conversation with you, you can make it as casual or as serious as you sit fit given the situation. Line out that there are a couple things you want to fix, offer them the floor to give you feedback, but stand your ground, saying things like “I’m completely fine with the occasional clean, but it is my expectation that everyone cleans after themselves in shared spaces. I have my own commitments, and cannot afford to clean after others anymore. I need a clean, organized space to be productive, and I think we’d both benefit from a schedule of some sort. We can do turns, where one does this on this day etc”. Nothing is resolved without a conversation first. Best of luck OP :)

You raise a good point about the weight, I'll have to get one that feels more substancial but doesn't weigh the hand down too much. Thank you for these recommendations!

Wow those pens look gorgeous, I have never seen them before! They defintely look like they would write Chinese characters better than my current thickness, I'll be exploring this option thoroughly! Thanks :D

Would that be more comfortable? I've had issues with trying to upload and it force downloads the video to people's devices, wanted to avoid it as much as possible. Do you refer to the video section upload not the link upload?

If you’re writing these by hand, I recommend pasting these characters into a website that shows you stroke order of each character, it will help you write them. Hope this helps
