What's the purpose in shutting them down?

You might as well ignore private companies altogether then, as the total compensation will be much less than public ones without equity factored in.

At FAANG the PTOs roll over (but there's a maximum cap, usually 1 full year of saving PTOs) + when you leave the company they convert to cash based off your hourly salary.

Inflation/printed money + stock market prices going through the roof. If you don't have significant capital in investments, you're getting hosed.

Facebook is one the highest paying companies, the highest among FAANG. High paying companies = high demand = selective = high prestige. I would say Google and Facebook are probably the two most in demand companies (out of all companies) to

Dota 2 allows for a real time coach to join your team during a match at any time, it's built into the game. They have full vision/information of what your team has. However, "Coaching is available in private lobbies, casual m

Part of the problem is fake reviews. Normally crap products have shit reviews, but this becomes unreliable when fake reviews boost crap products to 5 stars.

Nope, feel like the last major release the masses played was Starcraft 2, and that's over 10 years old now.

You only have to look once to know where all the money is going, generally spending patterns are fairly consistent month-to-month. Like you said, there are APIs out there too. At this point, refusal to do it is just outright laziness/i

Yeah, half my coworkers have been super outdoorsy types, all of them are doing fine financially. I don't think there's any statistical evidence that outdoorsy types are less financially responsible. In fact it may be the opposite

You have bank account and credit card statements right? Maybe take a look and see where the money is going?

>But these are just the flashes through the fog, clues to an unpleasant memory I’ve blocked out. Because when I think too hard about the truth, it hurts my head: I have no idea where all my money went. Just look at your bank account and

There's a Japanese term called kaizen, which perfectly describes this effect - small continual changes eventually result in huge ones over time.

Never stated that they weren't important? Most minimum wage workers I know that work in the city live outside of it.

M2 has grown at an average of 8.365% over the past 10 years, 7.063% over the past 20, 6.436% over the past 40, and 7.145% over the past 60. M2 is a much better gauge of inflation than the CPI (unless you're poor). At 7% inflation, hold

Who's to say that they'd remain in low-wage job? They may be wildly wealthy in the future. It's hard to know, since their potential is being squandered by the parents enabling this behavior.

I meant being kicked out if the parents clearly see 0 desire from the child to further their education or get a job. I don't think there's anything wrong with people living with their parents if they're going to school or wor

If the parents don't provide for them, what do you think would happen to the nephews? Do you think they would be homeless? I certainly don't. The fact that the parents are providing a roof over their head and paying for their food

You can live off of minimum wage. Maybe not in some places like big cities, but certainly if you moved to cheaper cost of living locations.

But at least they would be working, probably know how to drive a car, and may consider furthering their education/career when they realize how little they make for their time.

Dang, only $250k for 1400 sqft? That would easily be $1.25M+ here.

I don't think video games have anything to do with it. Humans are naturally lazy, and if all your needs are being taken care of for you, then you'll naturally seek entertainment for your boredom. They could do all sorts of things

It's the parents fault for coddling them. If they kicked them out at 18, the nephews would definitely need to work and may realize the importance of having a better job/career.
