Topic | $100,000 but you can't save money for the next 5 years |
Giant_Aspirin 06/02/23 2:42:08 PM #33 | Anarchy_Juiblex posted... Do you already have 100k in investments or have you only recently start making this level of income? the stipulations of the deal are that you can't spend the money on any investments. so that $100k up front PLUS any money earned through work cannot be saved or invested. not being able to invest or save my future earnings is really what turns me off from the deal. i make like $130k / year, i'm single with no kids and my house is paid off. i only spend like $2-3k a month (my life is simple). i max out my 401k, which is $22k each year. so right there i'd be missing out on $110k of retirement savings over the five years. i also save 2-3k each month in addition to the 401k contribution, so by taking that i'd miss out on $40k of retirement savings every year for five years. --- I hope something good happens to you today Playing: Octopath Traveler 2 |

Giant_Aspirin 06/02/23 2:32:47 PM #28 | Anarchy_Juiblex posted... How the fuck is this a no for any of you? not being able to save or invest anything for 5 years would net me significantly less than $100k. maybe if i was in a situation where i had LOT of expenses coming up, like new car, new roof, new windows, new HVAC, I might take it. otherwise, no way. --- I hope something good happens to you today Playing: Octopath Traveler 2 |

Giant_Aspirin 06/02/23 12:06:20 PM #22 | Dat_Cracka_Jax posted... Both lanes can exit straight and therefore, not exiting in the right lane impedes the left lane correct. the 'green' lane you enter from _must_ exit at the first opportunity. since you want to exit at the red, you need to enter on the inside lane. theAteam posted... Roundabouts with multiple lanes are a pain. roundabouts are objectively superior to 4-way stops. and are superior to most traffic lights. --- I hope something good happens to you today Playing: Octopath Traveler 2 |
