I did this right out of college. I’m not sure if it was the LNAPL measurements or the asbestos abatements but I really needed to get out of that industry.

I asked what I can do to protect my family from climate change.
To protect your family from the potential impacts of climate change, you can take several actions:Educate yourself and your family: Learn about the causes and effects of climate change, as well as the steps you can take to mitigate its impacts. Share this knowledge with your family members and encourage them to be more mindful of their environmental footprint.Reduce your carbon footprint: Make an effort to reduce your family’s greenhouse gas emissions by adopting energy-efficient practices, such as using LED light bulbs, turning off electronics when not in use, and driving less.Conserve resources: Encourage your family to conserve water, recycle, and reduce waste. These actions can help to reduce your family’s overall environmental impact.Support renewable energy: Consider installing solar panels or using other renewable energy sources in your home. Additionally, support policies and initiatives that promote the development and use of renewable energy.Get involved in your community: Join or support local organizations and initiatives that focus on climate change mitigation and adaptation. This can help to create a broader movement for change and can also provide opportunities for your family to learn and take action together.Stay informed: Keep up to date with the latest news and research on climate change and its impacts. This can help you and your family to make informed decisions and stay engaged in the issue.Remember, small actions can make a big difference, and by working together as a family, you can help to protect yourselves and future generations from the effects of climate change.
It gave a reasonable answer and didn’t discount it as a scam.
Not arguing any of that. The point here is that I find Musk repulsive enough that the Tesla, for all of its superior software, was never even in my decision making process.
Same.
We just bought the ev Blazer this weekend. Fuck Tesla.

Capital gains is always taxed at your normal bracket for holdings less than a year old and fall under special long term brackets for holdings >1 year. Those brackets are much smaller than income.
Capital gains isn’t the issue. The issue is people taking out loans against their securities or other assets at often very affordable rates (until recently). Those loans are their income, the interest on those loans are deductible and they never have to sell their assets.
As long as interest paid is lower than taxes on capital gains the behavior will never shift.

Housing prices don’t crash. Not really. People don’t want to take the loss. The nominal price may stay flat and the real price may go down as a result… That feels more likely
WoW: ill never forget it. This was BC expansion and as a Druid I had just recently unlocked flight as part of a huge questline. I was hopping around mining nodes farming for my Jeweler profession when I encountered a Druid nightelf. They had the upgraded bird form (320% speed vs 60%). I must have pissed this guy off or he was bored but he was just stalking me. Eventually he starts fighting me and we had a substantial level difference. I think he was 70 and I was 60. He was going to kill me but eventually I escaped out of combat into bird form. Of course he’s several times faster than I am. I had a sliver of health and a single moonfire would’ve killed me. I am just holding down space bar… Climbing into the sky. He fires off his moon fire. It should have killed me, but as luck would have it my headpiece gem had a 1% chance to reflect a spell. I had to read the combat logs to figure out what happened, but the spell hit him. The damage caused him to lose bird form and as he was now in combat he plummeted to his death. I landed. Danced around his corpse and went on my way. I could not believe what had just happened.
Agreed
I’d argue that people can only pay what they can pay. They won’t pay extra, they’ll buy smaller homes with smaller valuations to keep their payments reasonable. If you can’t afford to put up another 1k/month then you won’t.
Again, people can afford to move just not for their established QoL. If you own a 4bd house in a good school district are you going to downgrade to a 3bdrm in an ok district? Maybe? Probably not unless the money is good.
Also rich people aren’t buying homes with mortgages. They are just buying them with cash… Or putting so much down that their mortgage is reasonable.
