personally I have more issue with golf courses in non-temperate climates than hockey teams in non-frigid climates

though vancouver doesn't turn into a glacier like the rest of canada does and we can't play hockey to save our loving lives so maybe there's a connection here

my dev environment is windows on the desktop and linux as a vm because linux is a server and appliance operating system

nfs is dogshit though so I'm going to poke at the windows fuse thing and switch to sshfs

personally I'm banking on "fall in love with a figgielady and springboard that into both of us retiring early" because that seems more realistic than burning my soul at both ends for the next 15 years in hopes that'll end me up in a similar early retirement scenario

anyway my pay of approx £450 (lol) went through so how much of it should i put into savings, as a percentage


no im not doing 100% i need to Buy poo poo

depends, is it a registered savings account that your employer is matching or is it a rainy day fun savings account

because if it's the latter check to see if the interest rates are worth a poo poo (at least here in her majesty's royal disconnected british north america, they're not) and if they are throw whatever you don't think you're going to *need* in the next pay period into a savings account. if it's a matching registered savings account, do the same, but do it with conviction because you aren't able to get the money back until you're old and crotchety but it should hopefully be worth way more by then

it is a stocks and shares ISA from nutmeg (owned by jp morgan)

the optimal thing to do is throw whatever you're sure you won't need in the next pay period in there but realistically do whatever you're comfortable with. if you know you can easily spare 100 quid per fortnight or whatever your pay period is, fuckin go for it bud. if you think 100 is probably good but you'd like another 25 of buffer, throw 75 in

it took me a while to get to that point and I still feel like I'm not throwing enough into my RRSP, and starting earlier is better

like even before that the concept of seriously being like “yes I would like to tie the next 5-7 years of my income and current total savings to this specific property that might actually suck and be missing something here’s 20% of that money to show how unabashedly committed I am to this decision” is…terrifying

I mean I do want agency and control and a place I’m proud of and can improve but…aaaaaa holy poo poo terrifying

interest rates went up literally half a percent here and between february and may the average sale price of housing in greater vancouver dropped by 12%

bank of canada needs to just keep cranking that poo poo up until people can buy homes again

It's been a really hard day for me. after a lot of procastination and a lot of rationalizing and equivocating and all of that, i'm going to go over to my (nominal) ex's place and tell her that I want to file for divorce, and i'd appreciate it if she went for a non-contested with a handshake agreement, and that given that she currently hits me up for $1000/mo to 'make bills' on venmo, and i pay it, im on good grounds. between the monthly "im broke halp" texts and that time that i paid $10,000 for a new engine for the car she let blew up, i'm super deep.

one of my friends is currently dealing with a situation where his common-law husband has been embezzling from their business while doing literally zero work for the past two years so this hits hard. godspeed, friend
