For those who have had to make big decisions in their life, how do you stop yourself from second guessing to make sure that you make the right decision for yourself? I have so much analysis paralysis and I have such a hard time deciding on major life things (job changes, dating, etc). I am constantly second guessing myself. Does it get better with age, or just experience?
Posted this apartment over a year ago, but have since acquired more stuff. It’s an old office building they converted to apartments, the exposed concrete ceilings was the selling factor. First time in my life having my own place. Thinking of painting a few more pieces for the walls!
I’ll be 30 in 2 years and am on the fence about ever having kids. For those without kids and never wanting them, what are some things in life that bring you meaning?
I 27M am bisexual and have only dated women, but recently found a guy that I emotionally and physically connect with. I’m getting nervous because I think it’s moving to an official relationship, but I’m so nervous to come out to people. Grew up Catholic, have lots of internalized homophobia (going to therapy for this), but always have this worry that people will say they accept you but slowly change their attitude. I am straight-passing so most are unassuming (which makes this shit 10x harder)
Some of my hesitations are the fact that I want biological kids at some point and I never envisioned myself with guy long term. Lots to unlearn and life has a crazy way of changing, but looking for any advice from anyone in similar shoes! Do people really care as much as you think? Do people really see you as less than a man bc you’re not straight?
I took Spanish in middle and high school (7 years total) during what was arguably formative years and used to be very fluent. It's been 10 years since I've graduated high school and I haven't used my Spanish much, so I've unfortunately lost most of it. I can still read and write well, but conversations come much harder these days. I'm looking for the best websites/apps for refreshing without having to start with the basics - advanced verb and noun refreshers, ability to have conversations with 1:1 coaches, and country specific slang/dialects to improve my speaking and reading. The goal is really only conversationally fluent. Any suggestions? Figured I'd post since my situation is specific, sorry if this is a repeat!
Gracias a todos!
For those who keep their emergency fund or 'savings' within Fidelity, do you guys keep your uninvested money in the SPAXX or Deposit sweep in a CMA? I know that different accounts have different core positions available and I'm trying to select what's best for my short-term savings. My understanding is that the SPAXX is not FDIC-insured (which scares me a bit), but has a higher interest rate.
Very new to investing as a 26M, I am a bit overwhelmed by all the funds to invest it, but my strategy is to max out the $7500 year with a 85% VT and 15% QQQM (or something tech sector based). Is this a sound strategy? I know a lot of people invest in VTI/VXUS or VOO, don't really understand the small differences between them. Any help would be great!
Booking a flight from Tampa to Austin and the flight in the Chase Travel portal says the flight is eligible for a points boost, but I'm still seeing a 1cpp value (attached screenshot). Doesn't have the same points boost notification for the delta flight below, which is also a 1cpp value.
