  1. I keep telling the bums that no more than 3 can piss at the same time or this is what will happen.
  2. Really trying to avoid wading into the blame game but a dam breaking changes the scenario some, at least in my mind.
  3. Are there any formal reports that the damn near mystic broke?
  4. I’m sure it won’t make a difference but I hope this changes how people react to officials putting weather related precautions in place, especially in central Texas. Schools superintendents get bitched out every time they cancel school and it doesn’t turn out to be a massive weather event.
  5. Number 2 hits close to home. In the last couple of years we’ve done exterior painting, remodeled two bathrooms, kitchen, windows, upgraded the sprinkler system, and a new roof but insurance paid most of that. Part of this is because we deferred a lot of projects when I wasn’t making as much and now we can afford them. We need to paint the interior of the house then probably be done. It will be great to throw all that extra money in the market.
  6. Build the damn statue.
  7. Still just chugging along dollar cost averaging 2-3k into index funds once a month. Commission season starts in about a month so that will be fun.
  8. I’m not that concerned about it because my company is paying and I’ll probably use the gym. Just saying a $56/night fee for a pool that closes at 5 pm is shitty. Google AI is saying that’s standard so I guess they can get away with it.
  9. Going to answer my own question and post it in case there are other people looking for the same thing. Work travel has packed on the pounds so now I have to be careful. True food kitchen - Caesars Roku Sushi - Caesars The Halal Guys - Venetian Canyon Ranch - Venetian (lunch only) Does the pool really close at 5 pm each day? If so that is a huge kick in the dick considering the resort fees.
  10. As one of the resident Bobcats, I am excited about the move. Haven’t missed a home game in 11 years, which means I sat through a lot of 4 (or fewer) win seasons. Our leadership team, especially the president, has done a phenomenal job.
  11. Been to Vegas a million time to party and gamble. Going M-F next week for work and staying at Caesar’s as that’s where the conference is. Not my first choice after staying there last year and feeling like the place needs a massive refresh. Anybody try to eat decently healthy while in Vegas? I usually don’t so recs in or near Caesar’s would be appreciated. I don’t want to send the company into bankruptcy with my expense report so value (relatively speaking) is also appreciated. Anybody done the pool there? Won’t be available until later in the day but hoping to snag a free chair and take a break from losing money in the later afternoons.
  12. For me it’s similar to how former servers usually tip well at restaurants. When I was a teacher, I drove uber two days a week. That was Fridays after work and Sundays after lesson planning. It was hard to live in Austin on 55k and have any kind of financial goals. I don’t have kids but try to take care of the teachers I know now that I make more.
  13. People can disapprove all they want. Doesn’t make a shit until they vote differently…..and they won’t.
  14. We use Chase Sapphire Preferred which has a $95 fee but has been well worth it. The signup bonus plus our normal spending quickly got us 2 round trip tickets to Spain with only a little additional money from us. Using multiple cards and getting the bonus should be easy for one person as long as they are with different companies.
  15. You would probably be spending enough to take advantage of the big sign up bonus and minimum spend requirements on 2 or 3 cards.
