I really wish it was MediaWyrm. I want something where I can share, rate, and track books, movies, tv shows, podcasts, etc

For the same reason there are McDonalds everywhere. They are familiar and convenient despite almost always being inferior.
I lived adjacent to a neighborhood like this. It was much quieter than middle aged neighbors with Harley’s. Little Cessnas and Pipers are not that loud.
I agree.
Also check out Greenlight which has a built in parents interest feature.
Yeah. That would be a pain
Visible is pretty great. I don't really have any issues with it. I pay $25/month. Spouse has upgraded Visible plan of $45/mo and an Apple Watch $5/mo. My 3 kids have Tello $9 plans which gives the unlimited text/talk and 500MB of data. That's just enough to track their locations, Otherwise they tether for free on our phones. Everyone has an iPhone.
25+45+5+3x9 = $102 all in. No additional fees or taxes.
I use Visible and Tello for phone lines. Have 5 iPhones and pay less than $100/mo.
Buy store brands. A lot of times store brand is cheaper than name brand in bulk at Sam’s/costco.
Buy reliable used cars in cash and learn how to do some auto maintenance yourself.
There are high end thrift stores where you can find barely used quality clothes. Rich people often where them once or twice and then get rid of them.
Date nights in the middle of the week. Lots of places have specials.

I use YNAB which I guess is technically zero based budgeting but we refer to the categories as envelopes. In my mind I’m doing the same thing as when I had cash in envelopes I just don’t have to deal with cash. I group my categories by the 50/30/20.
So I guess 4 with a bit of 1 and 3?
I'm trying to assess if this is worth it before talking to contractors. I've done a lot of DIY remodels and hired out some but never anything of this magnitude. I want to build an addition on top of the garage and connect to the rest of the 2nd floor. Here's some assumptions I have.
-The slab foundation appears to have same construction as the rest of the house. Let's assume the footings are good for a second floor
-The joists and walls in the garage do not appear to be structured for a second floor. Will need to reinforce garage walls and add joists.
-This project would coincide with an already planned new roof and HVAC upgrade. So HVAC could be sized for the new square footage
Houses are going for about $275 square foot in our area. This will add about 250 square feet to the house. So if this could be done for $60k or less I won't lose equity.
- Any success or horror stories with this sort of thing?
- Any one tackle something like this as your own GC?
Stay strong!
Maybe that's the difference. I sweat like crazy out my feet, like soaking socks, but my tush is usually pretty dry. I'm extremely picky about my socks (I like Darn Tough).
In high school I worked on a ranch. On a couple of occasions I got to round up cattle on horseback. My friends were competitive ropers and I tried it a couple of times. I couldn't rope anything.
Honestly, the most fun I've ever had at a job though there's no way I would spend all day on a hot horse with my 30 something body.

I do B2B hardware and software projects. I hate sales and advertising but I will post something I'm working on about once a week on my personal LinkedIn. It's amazing how many customers reference that stuff when I have my first meeting.
