    RKOI: Rich Kids of Instagram (AKA the children of the 1%)

    Yes, but you are a working schlup, like most of the rest of us. If you had investments in the stock market that you bought and held, they would get taxed as long term capital gains at a lower percentage than if they were ordinary income. The capital gains tax is a sweet deal...

    RKOI: Rich Kids of Instagram (AKA the children of the 1%)

    Historically, nations & empires fall apart as the population "on the dole" (receiving substantial government assistance and not paying any taxes) rises above 50%. If you don't have any skin in the game, you will vote for whoever promises you a larger share of the redistribution of wealth, and...

    WTF why do local law enforcement need machine guns for?

    Cite your sources! Also, what type of "banned" weapons are you talking about? In Cal, a banned weapon is anything with a magazine capacity of more than 9 or 10 rounds (IIRC). So a Glock with a high capacity magazine is "banned", while it is perfectly legal in NV. There is a big difference...

    holy ****, is india really this filthy of a country?

    Yes, they do. However, this is a bit different than not being able to find still (non-carbonated) water in France or Germany. We are talking about basic hygiene and sanitation here. Defecating in the street and bathing in a river that has human and animal corpses floating by is unsanitary and...

    Are condos THAT bad of a value?

    One more thing OP... Having laundry on the 1st floor and living on the 2nd or 3rd is a pain in the ass. That was the other criteria for homes when I was looking. Laundry had to be on the same floor as the master BR.

    Are condos THAT bad of a value?

    Don't forget to consider that you will likely have to pay someone to manage the rental property for you (collect rent, deal with maintenance issues, etc.) They may take a non-trivial percentage of the rent.

    Are condos THAT bad of a value?

    I tend to agree. When I was looking for a house, there were a lot of shared wall town homes in my area. Basically these are condos, except you don't have anyone living above or below you, just on either side. I decided that if I was going to share walls with someone, I might as well rent. So...

    Wife wants to go back to Med School...having troubles with the math on this.

    While I'm probably too late to add much to the thread, I wanted to chime in... If I were in your shoes right now, I would use an Excel sheet to get some better ideas of the financial impacts of your wife going back to med school. You can run several "cases". Set up a base case (business as...

    Meet the 'Father of the Year' for 2012 .... 30x over

    One consequence of our intelligence is that affluent societies will take care of people who don't want to or simply cannot work to take care of themselves. As much as I dislike government involvement in people's lives, I think that making free birth control and sterilizations available to...

    Crazy fuarking Texans

    I drive I-10 in Houston every day, but I think driving in Dallas or Austin SUCKS. One major problem with Texans is that they have their favorite lane. They will get in that lane and drive whatever speed they are comfortable with, independent of what traffic around them is doing.

    Debated posting this

    Avoid a pug at all costs! They aren't vicious or anything, but they have a lot of breathing and allergy problems. They are also very willful animals. Some people find this trait endearing... I find it extremely annoying. If you like the idea of a pug, get one mixed with something else, like...

    Debated posting this

    After reading this thread, I will always say no to a stranger, especially a child, who asks to pet one of my dogs. Too much liability in my opinion. Say no, keep saying no, and physically block them if they won't listen. This is also why I carry $1M of liability umbrella insurance. To the...

    Debated posting this

    This is quite possibly one of the rudest, most horrible things I've seen written on these forums, and I've been around for quite some time. Do you mean to imply that someone who owns a pet does so because they can't get enough human companionship, and in turn has sex with the animal in their...

    #1 would have been my reaction when the builder called. Your job isn't to make the builder feel better. Fuck the builder. If you are outside your home warrantee period, then you have no vested interest in maintaining a good relationship with the builder. I would have told him that your wife...

    Are Craigslist in-person, cash purchases tax deductible?

    When you "claim a retail receipt", typically you are only claiming the sales tax, unless you know something I don't. So, in this case, you didn't pay sales tax on the monitors... So, you can't claim them on your taxes. Edit: Missed that it is a business expense.

    Isn't it silly how people pay more for rent than mortgage?

    You take for granted that you can (and want to) get a job and start a career in the same town your parents live in. You also take for granted that your parents will allow their son or daughter, who is now by all rights a grown ass man or woman, to move back in with them. You also take for...

    Amazon Prime

    Also love the Prime. Free 2 day shipping means that I'm buying a lot of stuff off amazon rather than hoof it to the store. However, you do have to watch their prices as some items are more expensive on Amazon than in the store. However their prices are always fluctuating according to some...

    PSA: Significant pet food (kibble) recall

    ultrasonic cleaners

    You can get a basic jewelry cleaner model on Amazon for $30. However, you probably want something larger that is also heated. You can get a decent sized heated model on Amazon for less than $100.

    What if there was no sunlight

    Life on this planet requires carbon to function. Carbon is consumed by eating or by absorbing CO2 from the atmosphere and using it to create sugar via photosynthesis. If you completely black out the sun, then photosynthesis stops. In the long run, all the carbon on the planet will end up...

    New law requires photo ID to buy drain cleaner

    Brilliant... require ID for drain cleaner, which wouldn't actually stop the crimes from happening (criminal shows ID, buys drain cleaner, then throws it in someone's face anyway). This is instead of allowing law abiding citizens to keep and carry firearms to protect themselves. I watched a...

    Need advice on Mac laptop

    Thanks for all of the great responses everyone!!! Her uses are going to be mainly web, email, some word processing, spreadsheeting and power point. iTunes is a given, of course. She is a high school teacher, so I imagine that she will value portability, so we'll take a look at an Air model in...
