What are the best "terrible with money" threads? I'm up to date on Slow Motion's and Knyteguy's and I want more.

Zaurg has 2 or 3, Tuyop and Cornholio also have 1 each. There was also Murderknobs that was quite a spectacular failure.

Cornholio: "I don't consider myself stupid when it comes to money" Zaurg: "Wife wants to buy or lease a new car" "This is serious, not a troll" Tuyop: "It's come to my attention that my financial situation is terrible" Knyteguy: "My wife's not cheating on me, but oh - she's pregnant" Slow Motion: "I am going to be free of credit card debt by the end of the year" [has $20,000 in credit card debt at the end of the year] alwayslost's thread has a lot of opinions about engagement rings, expectations, and financial communication between couples. So as not to be considered gratuitously insulting, let me point out that some of these people are clearly NOT bad with money at this time. slap me silly fucked around with this message at 04:30 on Aug 3, 2014 |

Two things! 1: Shouldn't the Resume & Interview link in the OP be updated to this, as it is current and not archived? 2: Would there be interest in a Freelancing megathread? I only found one thread on it here in BFC and it's the experiences of one individual. Unless I missed something, in which case disregard this item.

Can we make new personal finances threads? I'd like to have one to keep accountable to my goals. I'm not really super in debt nor do I have a pressing financial problem, but I would really like to crowd source some wisdom on how to best manage my finances, and have a way to regularly check in about accountability.

I'm a journalist by training, but I've been doing content marketing and a little bit of technical writing for the past year or so. The one huge thing I've figured out is that you should never compete on price as a freelancer; not only is it a self-defeating prospect but the clients you attract by being cheap are almost assuredly not the kind of clients you want. I suppose I could take a crack at a freelancing megathread OP, but a lot of what I'd have to say is advice I've gotten from other people. It's not like I've been doing this for a long time.

Blue Story was either a troll or not, if she was not, then she was possibly the most BWM person alive and also the worst parent alive. She and her husband spent all their money on Star Wars figurines and lovely art and concert T-shirts and couldn't figure out how to cook oatmeal and also once she got pregnant wouldn't stop eating deli meat and her husband was semiautistic and "allergic to vegetables" and oh my loving god, I hope she was a troll. https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3722319

I design stuff for a credit card company, and I'd like to post in the "Credit Card Rewards and Recommendations" thread and ask a question: I can't figure out what to name this thing I'm working on, and I'd like to describe it and get peoples' thoughts. So it's off-topic (and probably counts as homework) and I was just wondering if I can ask my question without getting yelled at.

I'll probably reboot this in a while after the site gets sold and I get some feedback from the community, but for now I'm including the Discord link and gassing the signup thread.VelociBacon posted:Okay, I'm going to post an invite link here now that things seem to have died down a little and we can take care of issues that might arise with a bunch of people joining.

Heads up: I was too big an idiot to stay idiot king, so now apparently I'm a BFC mod. Don't you sass me, or I'll be forced to go cry in the other room and wonder about my life choices. As should be tradition among new mods, I brought you a gift: Toss me a PM if you need anything. I work from home through at least June, so my availability is remarkably good right now.

Just to reiterate, since someone pointed out it wasn't listed in the rules thread anywhere: Zaurg is still not welcome to waste BFC's precious posting-bytes. I'm not going hunting for his posts because I am not a masochist, but if he gets reported, I'll address it. Tasers. The punchline is always tasers.
