Hi! Just want to ask if anyone has recommendations for a hookah bar in Bay Ridge. I used to go to Red Oak, but I'm trying to find some other options.

Curious about the plans of OFWs in their 30s:

- How old are you?

- What country are you in, and how long have you been abroad?

- Do you still plan to retire in the Philippines?

- What target net worth/investments would make you comfortable moving back?

- What are you mainly investing in now?

I'm 33, working in healthcare in the US, and mostly invest in US ETFs and some Philippine real estate. For now, I'm leaning more toward eventually going back to the Philippines. Life in NYC can feel very toxic and stressful sometimes, and a lot of people seem depressed or disconnected. That's why what Pareng G and Hayb said in their podcast about people being depressed here is true. Back home, people just feel more lively and happier overall despite having less. Maybe I just want a simple and slow-paced life with money in the Philippines, living low-key.

Hi, I got married January 2026 and updated the ADP W4 after 2 months after but there was no changes in the deduction. I was advised by HR to visit them to fill up W4 on paper and submit it to payroll department. My wife is not working, never worked since she came to the US because she's still waiting for her immigration documents to legally work for idk how long. Any tips on how to fill up the W4 to lower my taxes? We are living on my 1 income. Would appreciate the response. Thank you. I earn around 140k annually on W2 and the taxes was painful for the past years because I was single lol.
