he's back
friendly reminders
what prank/petty revenge did you get away with?
I have 2 examples. Ill share one; my stepdad was always a huge piece of shit. He still is, actually. He’d trick us into eating tomatoes. Me at 12 could eat them, whatever. My 5 year old brother was forced to eat them, and got grounded if he didn’t. He would actually force us to eat foods we didn’t like and would literally backhand us across the face for “disrespecting” that we had food on the table.
What's the point in getting married?
If you truly love your partner, does a ring and a ceremony really do anything? I know there are certain legal situations where an official marriage changes who has certain rights, but aren’t those same rights available if you make other legally-official decisions E.G. a will or trusts, etc? I’m generally curious why people get married beyond the “because I love them” when it costs so much money.
Should I withdraw/stop putting into my 401k?
I keep up with most of the dumpster fire that is current US news but I’m sorta lost on this one. I contribute to my 401k every week and have a few thousand saved up, as well as stock in the company I work for. Is all of the bad news referring to the stock market crashing? Is this general across the board or more company-specific? I consider myself decently politically educated but not so much economically.
