This thread is boring if you’re just gonna take advice and make positive steps that better your financial situation

(Great job btw, that’s a great positive step)

This is wild, y'all. I know the month isn't over and it's only the first month, but we are movin' on up!

Nice progress! Don’t get complacent because you had one good month in a row. It’s like going to gym everyday for a week. That’s great and it’s commendable but you need to repeat it every week to see the progress you want.

Why the gently caress does Power BI not have Sankey?!


It does but it's not out of the box. You have to go find it in BI's little "visuals gallery" bullshit.

Alright, for the first time since... 2013, I think, I have more money in my Checking account than balance on my Credit Card. I don't necessarily think I'll get to zero this month but I'll at least be able to pay off my balance due at the end of the month and stop paying interest. Continuing to plug away!

That’s awesome, great work. The trick is to have that every month and it feels great.

For real though how do you owe that much in taxes on trivia winnings? That’s some crazy prize money

On the subject of (possibly) winning big prizes, i guess i can finally mention this now that i have a concrete date and hopefully a pattern of decent behavior to convince everyone i'm not going to blow everything -- i'm going to be appearing on "who wants to be a millionaire" on may 30. Feel free to watch and cheer along knowing that I'm not spending my winnings (if there are any) on stupid bullshit.


That’s awesome! Will definitely check it out.

Renter's insurance is a scam.

Well all insurance is, but especially that one.

This is a bad and wrong take.

OP, the post below is filled with bad advice. You're a game show winner. You deserve some delicious greasy food and you can afford it with your big $$winnings$$. Just budget properly for it. Remember, you're going to need to properly fuel your body for those burpees.

gently caress off zaurg and go drink your own thread full of piss that you abandoned

Game Show money should be here in the next couple weeks, but it's all going to emergency fund so my budgeting isn't really affected

You’re a better man than I am, good on you
