I work 9 hours a day, prepare hot meals everyday, and still have enough time to call you a NIGGER.
People being unable to cook meals within at most an hour seems to me like an issue of time management. I bet they pull out their ingredients one at a time as the recipe calls for it and never use more than one burner on the stove at a time.
 
A proper household should have 6 months of canned/jarred and other dry food stocks. It's one of those things women have failed our country on that might never matter or might result in millions lost to fammine one day
Okay nigger where? We tried to stash something like month worth of food plus some water in one of the storage spaces it was just rice, sauce packets , drinking water for a week, canned food for a week and the pantry was half full. We don't have that big of a pantry/ storage its like 6 sqm. Most people don't have that , they maybe cupboard or two to work with may few square meters of storage that has other crap squeezed in it. Plus you have to rotate it out we ended up throwing out 5 litter can of olive oil as a result.

Yeah, but does it work as well? I hear ivermectin is so potent that it will literally make homosexuals shit their gayness out. (Hence the "oh shit we can't have America taking this en mass" thing. Plus maybe that's why Africans have little love for faggotry, since Africa is mass prescribed the drug. Also, ever seen a gay horse? No, I thought not!)
Dunno man spicy food has similar effect especially the chilly kind . It was recommended to give chickens some chillies and garlic few times a week for worm prevention. You mutts eat that shit for breakfast dinner and lunch with your Mexican shit.

Serious question what percentage of the people have 401k ? Sounds like upper class shit
Your response sounds like some unemployed shit to be honest, I'm pretty sure fast food does 401k matching at this point. If you've ever worked in a private sector career of any type you'll at least be offered a 401k and likely have an IRA Roth or otherwise.
 
They think the 10% withdrawal penalty is the only liability they have. Wait until they get the tax bill for the rest of it. Calsavers withdrawals are rolled into the person's gross income when tax time comes around. The 10% they pay at withdrawal is a penalty fee; it doesn't lower their tax liability at all, it's just gone. I know several people who have been treating Calsavers like a personal savings account who are about to get a rude awakening.

I had a talk with a woman I respect about this shit.

Her tax guy was saying she should get an IRA. I told her given my situation I dont really like those things. I personally think uncle sam should just take his fucking cut, up front. in all cases. Tax deferment is stupid.

This matches this twitter post I saw earlier in the thread:

There was also a twitter thread by an economicist who is now part of the Trump admin talking about the tarrifs and the games he's playing with them from about 50-100 pages back, which I don't have handy, and I think it talked about this too.

In short, the stock market is fake and gay and tying it to our general economy was a huge fucking mistake. The ... M2? number shows there's MASSIVE stock fraud going on (they claim to have more money than the rest of the Earth combined in the market or somesuch bullshit) and remember, the GameStop thing revealed they were literally counterfeiting stock on an industrial scale as a matter of course. It's why they had such a huge freakout as to literally prevent people from accessing the stock market and having Google/Apple disable new downloads of any stock trading apps while they slowly unwound the damage. It came within a few minutes of causing a complete crash.

That's called a ROTH IRA. ROTH means you pay taxes as it goes in, not when it comes out.

If you have a “career” job, you probably have a 401k. It’s not required for you to contribute to it though, but you get income tax breaks if you do.

Apparently about 50% of working adults have a 401k.

This feels at the moment like getting a tooth pulled, in the moment it hurts but you'll be better of with that tooth. Also only people who don't have an actual job care about the stock market.
 
Rather, Jordan said, he would expect the H-1B overhaul to come up as one of any number of concessions Republicans might make to sway Democrats in the Senate, who will be needed to clear any legislation for the president’s signature.
Don’t worry, the Jeets are a compromise!

I worked in fast food for about a year. Some places will do benefits like healthcare/401k matching/paying for college but that's only for managers or fulltime staff, they're not going to offer perks to the min wage gruntworkers.

In short, the stock market is fake and gay and tying it to our general economy was a huge fucking mistake.
The hand-wringing over the stock market by conservatives is annoying. I have never given a shit about the stock market, it's socially acceptable gambling for people with too much money. If there is somehow a difference between stock "investment" and gambling on cryptocurrency I'd love to be enlightened.

thank you.

one of my boomer cousins did 30 plus years as a teacher in CA.

He also basically livid with his parents the whole time. He threw alot of money into an IRA. and now at the age of 70 being semi retired he s having stress over money because of the situation.

He woulda been better off throwing that money into a 30 year mortgage in the 1990s the house woulda been worth more.

You get dividends from certain stocks, which means you actually get a tiny share of whatever profit that company makes.

Non-dividend stocks are basically gambling on sentiment like modern crypto.
