it's important to protect your credit score or else you might never be able to buy a house

I had a coupon for subway the other day and got two footlongs for 13 which seemed vaguely reasonable but the original price woulda been closer to 25 too I was like who the gently caress would pay 12-13 bucks for a single subway sub.

We only get fast food (other than TBell breakfast burritos once a week for a few bucks) once or twice a month but maybe it will be never with these insane prices.

SKULL.GIF posted:Hell yeah, I can't wait to see an unplanned debt strike happen You should probably warn your friend that because It's the gov they just start garnishing your wages fairly quickly and as the garnishes are a flat percentage of take-home pay it will likely be several times more than the monthly minimum you'd normally be able to sign up for, in addition to destroying your credit of course.

Codifying the plan to end the student loan payments pause but leaving room for a future pause in a future emergency is also part of the deal. https://thehill.com/homenews/house/4024194-mccarthy-student-loan-payment-pause-gone-under-debt-ceiling-deal/ It's both a nothing burger and also an interesting indicator. The Dems gave up nothing because this was always the plan but also if you think the white house was playing 4d chess around the pause, no they were not. This indicates they're fine with the pause happening since it gives up any methods they might have to bring it back while they get to a decision on forgiveness outside of a new emergency.

FlapYoJacks posted:Codifying the plan to end the student loan payments pause but leaving room for a future pause in a future emergency is also part of the deal. on one hand hoovering up another $5 billion from the economy every month back into the government coffers is deflationary, on the other hand that's $5 billion per month of money with uh, very high marginal utility for making rent and buying consumer goods which, in addition to inflicting suffering and existential threat to student loan borrowers, is going to have a disproportionately high effect on the economy vs say a new wealth tax that generated $5 billion a month (in a whimsical, fantastic hypothetical country where new taxes can be levied)

It is the same price as Hamm's now. Mickey's have finally been restocked, but it is 7.99 for a 6 pack now.

Hamm's tastes awful, it's definitely worse than PBR, High Life, or Yuengling. I'd reach for malt liquor over Hamm's.
