A couple of years ago we had to do our roof, our water heater, some foundation work, and our HVAC. Cost almost $50k exactly in total but it’s all paid for now. No debt except my mortgage, but I have a great interest rate so I probably wouldn’t pay it off early. I’d put $50k towards a new truck.

How relaxed or strict are your immigration laws? I paid $40 just to park my car for a few hours a few days ago.

It’s not quite enough, but I need a new truck. So I’d pull out another $20k and get one with no payment. I haven’t had any debt other than my mortgage in years and I’m trying to keep it that way.

Luxury beds can run above half a million dollars. How much bed money would you have left bafter paying off your debt?

If you want a roof over your head, most places have property taxes of $3-4k per year even if you own it outright. If you want to ever leave your house a car costs about $5-10k per year. If you aren’t living on rice and beans food costs about $3-6k per year. This doesn’t include any clothing, taxes, medical expenses, hobbies, travel, or other bills like water, natural gas, electric, etc.
If you’re incredibly frugal and quality for public assistance, $50k might last you a few years in the US.

I feel like Linux needs to be just a little bit more accessible to the tech-illiterate too. It is getting closer but go show some uninitiated person a Linux forum where power users are talking about maintaining their system daily or weekly, the average person is going to still nope out. I run Linux and and Windows, but if Mac could run more games I’d think about giving them a try because they all suck in their own special way.

They’re trying to kill the home PC. They’ll have all of the computing power and we’ll have subscription access.
It’s just dumb rich people stuff. Hand sewn camel hair and silk and stupid stuff. They don’t have to sell them everywhere, they sell at a handful of elite shopping locations. The champs Elyse, the Koenigsallee. They go hand in hand with $200k watches and yachts.
