potatoducks posted:They're BWM in a thread where we make fun of people who are BWM. To contribute, here is a BWM story related to me by a coworker who used to work at AOL. As you can imagine about the time of the Time Warner merger basically all AOL staff got a giant windfall in the value of their equity. Some sold and diversified away in to other tech bubble 1.0 stocks and lost out. Some held AOL and lost out. Some diversified into totally unrelated things and probably did ok. This person, however did none of those things. This person bought himself a personal submarine. It worked out about as well as you expect. That is, he lost the thing, his house, his car, and he lives with his parents now.

No state income tax, property tax or sales tax, it has to be like the Contra code for US taxes. Don't forget to pay your Washington state use tax. Yes that is a thing.

My wife and I spend I'm sure above average on food, but it is concentrated on fine dining which we like to do at least once or twice a weekend. I get 3 free meals at the office during the week. She has a bar for breakfast, cafeteria food for lunch, and we'll either prepare something quick for dinner for her or she'll grab takeout or a meal delivery service. Our grocery costs are probably $75/wk and our overall costs probably average $400-500. We'll go to nice restaurants twice a weekend usually and do whatever for lunch, maybe at a coffee shop. Good thing neither of us like alcohol much as wine can be a very expensive habit.

I knew a guy like that. First generation Chinese and his parents had basically broken his mind w.r.t. spending. He was an engineer at amazon making somewhere around $150k, and he just couldn't spend. He would buy forty pound sacks of rice and gallons of vegetable oil from Costco once a quarter and eat fried rice with a bit of frozen vegetables for all his meals on the floor of his apartment where he had no furniture. Luckily when he got married his wife got him some counseling and he's more normal now.

Amazon is growing by 5-15 thousand people a year downtown for the forseable future and paying them big wages. It's not going to stop.

Powerlurker posted:This. The standard W-4 withholdings basically assume a stay-at-home spouse for married couples. If you both work full-time, you have to fill out the worksheet and frequently do additional withholdings beyond the standard. Because of this, my wife and I are going to be writing a $3,500 check to the IRS come April and redoing our W-4s for 2017. My es cheque for January was $143k. Whoops!

My cousin married an anesthesiologist. She was making 7 figures I believe. Then her company decided to cash out and sell their cartel that leased themselves out to local hospitals for a big lump sum. Except the new owners gave them sign-or-walk contracts that cut their comp by two thirds and kept the non-compete contracts with all their old customers. Owned. So they retired and moved to Australia.

That's awesome. I got a stack of a hundred a long time ago and give them to goldbug and bitcoin crank acquaintances. Maybe I should just resell them.

That's why I didn't sign up with them years ago. Are you saying they still don't have some federation auth where you sign in to an iframe like PayPal checkout and get a token or whatever? That's hosed up. Why do they have any customers at all?
