    Rental car fees are ridiculous

    While true, most of the time that wouldn't be practical.

    Google has probably handicapped YouTube for Firefox, so here's an add-on

    Wedding Present

    Give cash $50-100. Or if they have a registry somewhere, buy a giftcard for that store, again $50-100. My experience is even though people have registries at like Bed Bath Beyond, Crate & Barrel, Amazon, etc, they end up returning a lot of stuff (at least that's what my wife and I did). Edit...

    Move to a 6 figure salary at small, low-performing firm or stay at current multi-bn firm?

    Rather than list out share price, it's more relevant to list out market cap. As an extreme example, a company with $2 share price could actually be a larger company than the one with $150 share price. Not in your situation, but just trying to emphasize that share price is not a good indicator...

    Alot of people will owe more $ at tax time (April 2019) for the 2018 tax year

    Well, if you really like getting money back, then make sure you overwithold in 2019 :P Like if your monthly gross wages is $5,000, then withhold like $2,500 as taxes...you'll be almost 100% guaranteed to get a refund back lol.

    So I joined Nextdoor last night

    Wow, that would be super annoying to live nextdoor to someone like that. Sorry man. I'm on a neighborhood distribution list and for the most part, it's used pretty responsibly. We'll have the occasional "i saw this girl walking by herself, thought it was interesting and suspicious, just FYI...

    Solved! wireless option for PS4 Pro?

    Maybe I'm not understanding your question, but why would you wonder if you could use the TV's speakers to output sound? You just plug an HDMI cable from PS4 Pro to TV and it delivers audio and video to the TV.

    Question Should I buy a PS4?

    Just do it. You sound like you've already convinced yourself to do so anyways.

    Man, not being handy is expensive

    Ever since owning a home (3.5 years ago), I've managed to fix quite a few things around the house by googling/youtube. Definitely takes some time to learn certain things, buy the right tools, etc, but the idea of saving $200 to replace a toilet's pump/flush for maybe 1 hour of learning, and 1...

    Probability & Statistics

    I have a B.S EE degree and found stats to be challenging but fun. I also took AP stats in 11th grade. I also took an accounting/business stats class and that was so easy compared to the engineering stats class.
