    i am trying to get used to drinking coffee black. I feel very tired and non energetic. But I can't sweeten this coffee and Half and Half has too many carbs in it. So I just have to endure it if I want to get my sweet sweet caffeine fix.

    u mother...fucker.......*sips*

    bleeeegh

    Put butter in it.

    it's not that great without the frother to really get it in there. Otherwise it just kinda of sits on top of the coffee like an oil spill.

    My options at work are limited

    if you want to avoid carbs you can add butter. it's sort of a thing right now.

    also suck it up and learn to appreciate black coffee

    I am hoping this diet will teach me to appreciate black coffee, actually. Just not this black coffee. It is, how you say, "burnt"

    I ain't going out to buy no fancy ass cup o joe tho pls what am I made of $230k annual income

    you could get these 1p sweets that looked like cola bottles and they were covered in sugar and they were the best

    so lets say $230k is liek £150k or wahtever

    that is 150 MILLION cola bottles

    MILLION

    MILLLIIIOOOHNNNNNNN

    if you ate 2 per second it would take u liek 2.5 years to eat them all assuming u didnt sleep

    with a cash and carry membership you can acquire penny sweets at a rate of considerably less than 1p per sweet

    Like straight up, that's nearly ~$130,000 net pay ($100k in taxes for living in NYC).

    Rent is maybe 3k a month, so for sake of math let's say $30,000 a year for rent.

    Maybe another $1000 a month for incidentals like travel and food, utilities, etc ?

    $48,000.

    You have nearly $90,000 a year extra to just piss away.

    As a single earner.

    That's not "well off" that's "wealthy".

    why would you rent?

    If you're really smart, you live like a pauper in NYC for 10-15 years. Get the cheapest rent, bank all your extra cash, invest it. Leave off home cooked meals, ride a bike to work.

    Then, 10-15 years later, you retire and move to some state with a low CoL where you can drop $200,000 on a house and buy it outright and pay $1500 a year for the rest of your life in taxes.

    Then your bills work out to something like $150 a month for taxes and $1000 for just general quality of life living. If you worked in NYC and banked $100,000 in wages a year in a savings account (not even invested it) you'd have 1.5 million (roughly).

    It would take you 750 months at 2000 a month to go through that. Or, 62.5 years.

    You'd earn something like $100,000 a year in interest at 7%

    You could split that in half, and reinvest it right back in, and still live very comfortably.

    Living in NYC without spending money on things is the fucking worst though

    I'm still coming. I'm gonna visit his new place and meet his new lady. They're in Somerville, so not technically Boston, but not in a way that matters. It won't be the same thing, though, since he lives there now. Staying on your friend's couch isn't the same as sharing an apartment in a place where neither of you lives.

    What time of year

    Also don't tell me you were thinking of going to Boston for a couple of weeks

    Yeah, staying in one place for a while is what I like. And we both would've still had light work to do during the day, so it's not exactly 2 weeks where we had nothing else to do.

    July would've been the time. We haven't made new plans, yet.

    Portland Maine is lovely in July, go there

    I will be there for a few days

    I like staying in one place for a bit when I travel, but a couple weeks for a vacation in Boston would be mind numbingly boring to me

    Ehhh in the strictest sense, but financial stuff gets wonky.

    You could conjure up a situation where rent is less than interest+repairs+taxes or something like that, and so renting for another few years while you save actually costs less.

    huh. I got one that was 10,000 but it was points not guardians. I think kills were 25 and warlocks were 75 and assists gave something as well idk. 10,000 guardians would take forever wow.

    That's not "well off" that's "wealthy".

    why would you rent?

    If you're really smart, you live like a pauper in NYC for 10-15 years. Get the cheapest rent, bank all your extra cash, invest it. Leave off home cooked meals, ride a bike to work.

    Then, 10-15 years later, you retire and move to some state with a low CoL where you can drop $200,000 on a house and buy it outright and pay $1500 a year for the rest of your life in taxes.

    Then your bills work out to something like $150 a month for taxes and $1000 for just general quality of life living. If you worked in NYC and banked $100,000 in wages a year in a savings account (not even invested it) you'd have 1.5 million (roughly).

    It would take you 750 months at 2000 a month to go through that. Or, 62.5 years.

    You'd earn something like $100,000 a year in interest at 7%

    You could split that in half, and reinvest it right back in, and still live very comfortably.

    Living in NYC without spending money on things is the fucking worst though

    i mean why even would you

    If you're not boozing or eating out every day, it's pretty hard to spend a lot of money.

    what if you do both 40k and MTG

    Allegedly a voice of reason.
