This is an absolute nightmare scenario

$40,000 would pay off all debts for me and my wife, and allow us finally catch our breath. The monthly payments have been annihilating us for years, and neither of our careers have recovered since COVID.

It feels like an endless tunnel.

I probably should have planned for this weeks ago. Things are gonna get sticky

I swear If i’m about to be sucked into some looking-glass or magical shoe I’m gonna be pissed

Holy shit. This might be the winner

It never even occurred to me to put a sign up advertising the bounty of the tree. This might be simplest. But on the off chance no one takes me up on that, I’ll still have almost 300 plums. I’ll check out that webzone, thanks

Having never made a jam or a jelly of any kind, I’m hesitant to try this, but it might be a good option. Do you have a favorite plum jam recipe?

This is a pretty dogshit take, homie.

Still doesn’t work for me, just tried again a couple minutes ago

I was using Jerboa until I got booted due to the server upgrade, and now I can’t log back in. A couple folks here have offered steps to help get back on it but it doesn’t seem to be working for me.

I hear good things about Liftoff tho

I’ll do “so far” instead of “all time” because all time has not yet elapsed, but I’ll shut up and list the current roster:

• Werckmeister Harmonies
• Fellowship of the Ring
• The Dreamers
• The Wind Rises
• L’eclisse

Honorable mentions go to Casino Royale, Ashes and Diamonds, The Empire Strikes Back, Paprika, and Vanilla Sky.

Any time you make any amount of money, put 5% of it into a savings account. If you don’t have a savings account, make one. If you can’t make one, put the money somewhere safe in your house.

5% doesn’t sound like a lot, and for broke/poor people it can often mean the difference between eating that day or not, but if you’re able to do it, really seriously do it. I recently calculated where I’d be right now if I had done that, and I would have saved over $20,000 in the last 15 years if I had listened to my own stupid advice.

Also, wear moisturizing sunscreen every single day.

Growing up homeschooled in a cult in the American South, escaping, and then moving to Brooklyn. Kind of a roundhouse-kick to the id, ego, and bank account

You too can be a Cracker

Damn. I read “cash” as “liquid assets.” and not necessarily, like, physical benjamins.

I guess I’d hustle over to the midtown and buy every single Rolex and Omega I could get my hands on at Watches of Switzerland, Bucherer, and Wempe. Probably would hit the half-million mark real fast and would then re-sell them at leisure

I would immediately pay off all of my debts in my online banking/credit cards/student loan/utility accounts, send my Landlord my rent early via Zelle, login to my parent’s mortgage and credit card accounts and pay them all off, pay off all of my wife’s student loans and credit cards and business loans via her online accounts, and spend the rest on ebay gift cards.

Lots of top-quality dumb news this week

There’s no way currently

I have done two seven-day fasts and four three-day fasts. You’ll want to prep with fasting practice and then watch your water intake to make sure you’re not dehydrated.

I would pay $50 to know why the fuck you’re doing this.
