Been using Mint for over 2 years now in Portland. I pay $240 FOR THE YEAR 😂 unlimited talk/text and 10GB of data a month. Plenty for me and the service has been great.

It’s still shocking to me that people are paying over $50 a month for their cell phones. Some may even still be at $100+ a month 😬

USPS after a few years in or immediately when you factor in all the available overtime. Can easily bring home $2K a paycheck (every 2 weeks) right away with OT.

Tell your wife you got a quote for something ridiculous (like $5K) for the install and let her be the one to decide “it’s not worth it”.

You’ll always find people doing better and doing worse. All that matters is if you’re happy and finding joy within your daily life.

You won’t be getting 6.5% right now. Rates have risen like crazy the last 3 months.

Just be prepared for your mortgage payment to increase significantly if you try and buy/sell right now. Unless you’re selling a house for $400K and buying a new one for $200K or something.

The buy and sell combo worked pretty well during 2020/2021. Prices were high but interest rates were at historic lows so you could “upgrade” and come out even for the most part. But 2022 is a completely different ball game.

Contingent offers have been very rare the last couple years because of how competitive the market has been. As a seller, there’s no reason to accept a contingent offer if you have multiple offers with no such clause.

Since the market is slowing down a bit (due to sky high interest rates) contingent offers may become more common.
