With few exceptions (namely the elderly/disabled or miltary), I firmly believe that people over the age of 25 should be responsible for getting themselves to and from the airport. If you can pay for a flight, you can shell out the extra 30 bucks for an Uber. This applies to other annoying favors like asking your friends and family to burn an entire Saturday to help you move in exchange for a Costco pizza and cheap beer.
I read somewhere thay to achieve results in anything, you don’t need motivation, you need discipline. Motivation is fleeting, but a strong sense of self-discipline is what will push through the days where motivation is no where to be found and you feel like giving up.
Though, tbh I’m writing this while eating a “Sharing Size” pack of peanut m&ms, which I have no intention of sharing….
I’m right there with you! Not quite as much debt, (I’m somewhere in the $60k-$70k range). Credit cards, auto loans, and god awful personal loans are pretty much the bane of my existence! It only gets worse if you ignore it, which is what I think a lot of us do. Gotta start working the side-hustle!
San Diego Native here. Please don’t move here. By all means, come and visit, but make sure that your ticket is round-trip.
There are some amazing things about living here but it comes at price tag that includes more than just a $1600/month lease. If you move here, in addition to top-notch microbreweries, Mexican food, and beaches, you’ll also be treated to wildfires, earthquakes, bi-annual smog checks, high gas prices, paying a minimum of 10 cents per bag at the grocery store, crumbling infrastructure, a stupid amount of traffic, and the constant threat of state economic collapse.
In my deeply uneducated opinion on the subject, to me, saying that space expands outward forever implies that it has edges, which means there should be something on the other side (alternate/parallel universe, heaven/hell/purgatory, aliens, etc.)
I want to know if these classes are graded. If they get below a C in “FIN-103: Paying Your Bills,” do they have to take it again? You know, assuming they paid the tuition bill on time?
I had HR order a special standing desk for me due to my doctor’s recommendation to help with low back pain from sitting for 12 hours a day. I used that monstrosity exactly 1 time for about 10 minutes and then noped it right back down to sitting. Way too weird to be the only person in the office awkwardly standing, and made it almost impossible to concentrate on work.
I agree, that statistic isn’t as straightforward as it seems at face-value, but my understanding is that it’s not meant as an across the board figure. While it’s been a while since I’ve read up on the subject (read: it’s been awhile since I took that Women and Gender Studies elective course in college), I believe it’s supposed to correlate to men and women of the same educational level in the same field and isn’t a universal truth. It’s a more complex issue with a lot of variables that aren’t quantifiable (for example: social norms in negotiating salary).
Though as far as the comparing teachers to engineers; women are typically pushed more into lower paying careers like teaching, social working, etc., and men are more often pushed towards STEM fields and advanced business degrees (unfair social expectation of being the breadwinner)
I’m gonna be that person and point out that Olivia Newton John (and her character, Sandy) is from Sydney, Australia so she’s not exactly “All-American”…
A few years ago, while studying for finals, I upgraded to Pandora One in a fit of rage over hearing the same Progressive commerical for the billionth time. The $4 a month is well worth it to not have to hear that overly-perky banshee blather on about insurance.

Something very similar just happened in my office…the first book in a series of “book summary presentations.”

High School juniors an seniors should be required to take a “Personal Finance and Other Adult Responsibilities” class in order to graduate.

I got an ad for the Holy Bible app when I opened this one…is my phone trying to shame me?
Being you seems exhausting, tbh.

Del Mar is in the bougie part of the county, so it’s not exactly representative of San Diego as a city.
