Edit: ^^ Obviously, it's also a troll.

uvar posted:The BWM here is the person claiming you can't inherit anything from a pension plan without knowing any details, right? Because there were definitely payouts when I was in the UK and a quick Bing suggests it's not impossible in the US either. Sundae posted:It's usually survivorship benefits to a spouse, though, not a 35-yr-old child. I mean, anything's possible but it's pretty damned unlikely he's seeing a dime unless "pension" is also a misnomer. A younger friend of mine received payouts from his father’s pension (it was definitely from the pension*) from the age of 25ish until 30ish. It was five or seven years, I forget. The payouts only stopped about four years ago. * I mean, I didn’t review the paperwork or anything, but I trust my friend on this.

Residency Evil posted:Ugh and be a computer toucher? Which EMR, and are you hiring? I have a RN friend who was stacking big bucks consulting for a hospital operations system company. He stepped outside his hotel one night for a smoke, and woke up in the hospital with a bypass and no consulting gig. He’s also a hobbyist (and former professional) software developer who is working on his own project scheduling and management software with a focus on the medical field, but, let’s face it, that’s never going anywhere. I kind of keep an eye out for any leads so he can continue to keep a roof over his family’s heads while his wife operates her illegal greyhound “rescue” from their garage.

Griefor posted:What I don't understand about crypto believers is this: It's the Underpants Gnomes Theory of Macroeconomics, and nobody actually believes it. I know a couple of true believers, and they have slowly moved from "any day now" to "thirty years" as the time when Bitcoin will have finished revolutionizing finance. They just push out the time horizon to a point where their claims are meaningless for any practical purpose. They also refuse to put any money or resources at risk top prove their faith. I've offered to lock up money, or property, or just I-told-you-sos for thirty years because I believe they are wrong. I get a lot of bullshit about opportunity cost and they just ignore the question of why don't we just make a bet where someone has to do something humiliating in thirty years or whatever. In short, only a tiny core really believe Bitcoin is going anywhere. The rest are hoping to make bank selling to the next generation of suckers, so they have to pretend they believe, to the point where they almost, but not quite, believe it themselves.

crazypeltast52 posted:Middle class is everyone making from half to twice as much as the person believing themselves to be middle class. Don't surveys (not sure how good they are) show that like 80% of people call themselves middle class? I don't remember the exact numbers I've seen, but it's something like people earning $600,000/year call themselves middle class, as do people earning $26,000. No one wants to admit to being an outlier, or some of them just don't realize how far off the tail of the bell curve they are.

MomJeans420 posted:According to the people I've met with (larger) boats, you have to factor in 10% of the purchase price per year in terms of maintenance, crew, etc. I mean, I knew a $12 million Swan was out of my league by around $12 million, but it's crazy to realize that even if someone gave me the boat, I'd have no way of running it for even a year. There was a Goon who wanted to live year-round on a boat, so he posted asking about it, and a bunch of other Goons were like, "I live/d on a boat, don't live on a boat," and the Goon was like, "I'm only 25, and I don't want to miss the chance to live on a boat while I'm still young," and the boat Goons were like, "I lived on a boat when I was young, and it aged me prematurely, cost me hair, gave me three types of cancer and bankrupted me," and the first Goon was all, "Yeah, I think I'm gonna live on a boat." It was a good thread.

OP here is working 40-50hrs a week to support the homeless and is nearly homeless herself. Her effective wage is $8/hr. Jesus christ. It's absolutely loving shameful that we undervalue our teachers, social workers, and other people who do the poo poo jobs that support our society. That must and should change if we are to progress. However, I don't think there as many Pelotonians in this thread as some people would like you to believe.

CannonFodder posted:They are taking others out to eat but have no friends. What? Some big depression warning signs as well. I’ve been gaming those services off and on for the past few years, because they sometimes offer incentives that made it essentially free to use them. Unironically, they’re pretty great. Some are better than others (I think HelloFresh is the one I liked the most, but I’m not certain), but for the most part I got great, simple recipes with the right amount of all the right ingredients. The produce even seemed to have been actually hand-selected for quality, instead of them just grabbing the first last, cheapest batch off the truck. The cost, however...

I always get anything reasonable I ask for and then some because I'm not a flaming rear end in a top hat, which seems to be notable to the CSRs I deal with. I ordered a pizza a few months ago, and it arrived quicker than expected. The delivery guy was like, "she said to take yours first because you were so polite on the phone." It was a completely normal interaction. I can't believe it stood out. Guess people suck.

Ralith posted:Lately I've been into doing huge pots of palak paneer. It turns out that with a baking stone you can even do half decent fresh naan! Heats your house nicely in the winter, too. I've made paneer dishes the past three nights. I'm using paneer I made myself using yogurt I cultured. It's kind of bad with money, because I've been buying milk from the hippie market and I had to lay in a supply of spices I don't normally have around the house, but it's good with flavor. My favorite this week was the paneer 65 I made.

Also, it doesn't matter if it's 32 tenants, or 400 tenants, or however many tenants. With more tenants comes more income, and a month is a month. There is no excuse for him not to have a month's worth of expenses put away with (presumably) 100% occupancy of the building that is his sole source of income.
