I'm a natural lurker.
I haven't heard of it but that's a good rate. Assuming there are no hidden fees (maintenance, overdrafts, etc) of course.
Your profile is hilarious 😂

What tools do you use to track your money?
I'm using the good ol' Excel spreadsheet to track expenses, income, NW, etc. Are there any other tools or apps that you guys found useful?
Also shoutout to my fellow spreadsheet power users 😎
we did it Reddit! /s
The hacked MichelleG account actually commented that it did not have MFA enabled lol. This was on the lemmy.world shitpost community, on one of the posts making memes about the situation. Hilarious that the hacker decided to share that.
Oh wow again? 10 min ago it was clean! The .world admins are having a productive day lol

PSA: Lemmy.world has been compromised! (Edit: Multiple Instances are down)
FYI!!! In case you start getting re-directed to porn sites.
Maybe the admin got hacked?
edit: lemmy.blahaj.zone has also been hacked. beehaw.org is also down, possibly intentionally by their admins until the issue is fixed.

Great idea! I couldn't find a wiki feature for Lemmy but for now we can add to the sidebar. There was a nice retirement calculator that someone shared awhile ago on reddit, gotta try to find that again too.
That would be amazing if the current AskHistorians team moved here. It's legitimately one of the best run subs.
Nice, what's up people

Welcome to FIRE!
Hi all, I wanted to create this community for those interested in the FIRE movement to share their experiences.
A few years ago, I started tracking my net worth and increasing my savings to hopefully even have a chance to retire, and now want to push further to achieving financial independence and MAYBE HOPEFULLY retire a few years earlier as well.
Anyone else in a similar situation? How has the journey been for you so far?
Just my 2 cents here, but no more bonus + stocks + 401K matching?? That seems like a pretty huge hit for you. If it were me, I'd probably be looking for other offers... you can't simply wait for your company to get its shit together.
Also regarding 401K, every bit of contribution matching helps especially since you are still young and in your 30s. So those small missed contributions definitely add up 30 years down the road.

Mixed Zoning


This seems like a no brainer for creating cities for any other country that is not the US, but I hope CS2 has vanilla mixed zoning buildings. Really want to create some nice cities from my home country without modding the game to death!
