My daughter is 4 months old, she slept in the bed with us from 1 to 2 months old, she would literally sleep like 5 minutes in the bassinet and wake up so we did what we had to do to get sleep.

Once she made it to 2 months or so she started sleeping more or less through the night, since then shes been sleeping in her crib like a champ.

Well to be fair he broke his leg, Dustin didnt finish him. People are acting like Dustin was dominating him, he definitely won the round but Conor was landing a lot of shots as well. Injuries are always a crappy way to end a fight, not a satisfying finish at all.

I would say Dustin was likely going to win just given Conors history of running out of gas after 1-2 rounds, but its not a definite finish so its pretty lame.

Hmm, yeah now that we're talking about it I think a lot depends on how the next episodes go. I might be a little more worried than I thought. Mostly because the program is already pretty old, right, Kwangsoo or no Kwangsoo. I wonder, do you think they might think about replacing him? We'll see.

They already said they wont replace him, but you never know. If they tried whoever they got would probably just be crushed by fans anyway simply for not being Kwang Soo. Hopefully hell rejoin at some point, but if thats the case him leaving the way he has seems really dramatic.

Yeah, it can still go on without him, but it won't be the same anymore. Kwangsoo carried the show hard. Very sad.

Judging by them saying hes leaving to recover from his injury, it must be a situation thats not really going to improve much, or else he could rest and come back after some time off. Im still catching up on episodes, I think I have about 50-55 or so to go before his final one, so at least I have some more time to enjoy it while hes there.

Gary leaving sucked, but Kwang Soo leaving is definitely gonna be tough to keep it going. I wouldnt say he carried by himself, Yu Jae Suk carries it pretty hard, and them 2 together is pretty much guaranteed laughs. Of course all of them pull their weight for the most part, but he for sure did a lot of the heavy lifting.

I think the show will be ok since its been going for so long and people love the cast and not just Kwang Soo, but Im definitely curious to see the reception going forward. I hope they dont push Se Chan/So Min alot more. I somewhat enjoyed them at first, but theyve gotten tiresome to me and just not feeling them that much anymore.

To be clear, this early retirement is going to be funded entirely by crypto? In 4-5 years from a $40k salary?

You both suck at money

Been investing for 4-5 years now, got in pretty early so little amounts of money can be worth a lot. Do you not know how crazy the crypto market can be? You can turn 100 into 50k if you get lucky enough. Harder to do now obviously, but people have done similar or far better than that.

wtf

Bruh. Im a teacher and a coach and work 50+ hours a week. I make 40k a year, I put half in, invest, and still manage a little savings. Im pulling my weight. My investments are for retirement, not for making my wife happy we paid off our house early so I can keep working for 30 more years cause I lost my investments.

Retire in 4-5 years with house paid off, hell probably can buy a new house and pay it off too. Or pay off one now and work for another 30 years. Hard choice there.

Also I actually just read your post and wtf as characterizing your wife as bad with money for having zero savings when she puts $2k extra PER MONTH towards your house

jesus fuck dude. How can you not see how that is very financially beneficial to you, while she is also probably doing that with the knowledge that you as a couple have your savings to fall back on if needed

The extra 2k is from her putting in her 50% of her paychecks, not on top of her 50%.

Youre definitely going to end up divorced

Nah were good. She is a woman, so obviously shes prone to being emotional at times. Were happily married and just had a baby, this is the first time money has even come up in any kind of argument. She is bad with communicating when shes upset, once she calms down (which she has) shes just much easier to talk to.

She is fine now. Shes been dealing with a baby all week while Im at work, just needed to have a talk is all.

Oh I know that, divorce isnt even in the discussion, its not nearly that bad at all. She is emotional in general and I think its just a combination of things. Shes broke and isnt making money, and seeing a lot of people she knows doing things with investments and its making her jealous.

She needed to be checked though, she basically was trying to throw her financial weight around by saying she contributes more then me so she should be entitled to my investments. She has calmed down now I think.

How much money would it be if you pulled 50% of your investments? Probably took a big hit this week too.

Right now around 40k, at the peak it would be probably 60k. Im planning holding for at least another 3 years though so Im not really concerned with where it is currently.

Also I worded it poorly in the op, this last year she made 100k because of 2 jobs. Prior to that she was making about 60k. And thats with her working a lot of overtime and extra pay with COVID stuff I think. Not sure if she will make 100k this year or not.

First step I think would be to sit down with her and go over how she's been spending her money and figure out where it's going. Like why is she pulling money out of her 401k? Then start a budget plan.

I don't think you should be in the mindset of like following exactly what you agreed to like it's some sort of contract nor should there be specific roles for each partner in the relationship. You guys should be able to work together to see how you can cover each others short comings and try to solve your financial issues together.

Also is she not on unemployment?

We will sit down and figure it out, just needed to vent a bit. Like I said I think she will be fine once she goes back to work and is making money again. She is still employed so cant get unemployment, she is a float nurse at 2 different hospitals and they dont get maternity leave.

She could have gotten short term disability but she messed it up by taking the 2nd hospital job. Went to full time in the 2nd job and part time on the first. 2nd job requires you to be there at least a year to get short term disability, but she was only there like 6-7 months prior to the baby coming.

If she's spending that much money and you don't know where it's going, then that's pretty suspect. My wife buys tons of shit, nowhere near $40k worth, and I definitely see the packages and the stuff and I know where that money is going

She knows shes terrible with money and would be willing to go through all of it and see what it was spent on. I know for sure weve spent at least 10k off stuff from Amazon in the last 4-5 months. She bought furniture and baby stuff out the ass.

So basically we have 1 joint account which we both put 50% of our paychecks into, and our own separate accounts for the other 50% which we can do whatever we want with. Now our agreement was always 50% of paychecks, we never said all income which I think is important.

Basically Ive been investing in crypto for the last 4-5 years with the goal of retiring early. We were together that entire time, but have only been married for the last 2 years now. So a huge portion of my investment came before we were married as well.

Shes seeing a bunch of people around us paying off their houses and buying cars from crypto investments and shes getting jealous. Wants me to pull out half of my investment and put it toward the house, I said no. Told her Im more than happy to share that money with her down the line, but Im not jeopardizing my retirement plans so we can pay off our house a little earlier.

Now in fairness I only make about 40k a year, she makes 100k and has paid an extra 2k a month on the house for these 2 years. Minus the last 3 months since we had a baby and she hasnt gotten maternity leave because she ****ed that up. So part of the issue is shes broke right now and staying home with the baby so shes going a bit crazy. I think it will be fine when she gets back to work.

In general she is also just terrible with money. She makes 100k a year and has 0 savings. She is now saying she is going to stop paying the extra 2k on the house and keep that money for herself, which Ive pointed out is not what we agreed to. I told her we can keep the extra 2k in the joint account and not put it toward the house, but 50% is supposed to go to that account.

Im not opposed to readjusting %s since she makes more than double what I make, but she only gets mad when I point out that even without investments I still manage to always have more money in my account then she does.

Im honestly at a loss as to how she spent 50k on her own this year anyway. She spent 10k on a car, and best I can tell 40k on random **** some how. She even spent more than that as she pulled out 401k money and spent it and now has to pay extra to put it back. Oh and also I didnt receive half of that 401k money, because I dont feel like its mine just like the investment money shouldnt be hers.

She has also had no income for the last 3 months, so Ive basically been paying everything which is more than the 50% I get, including like $400 a month into her 401k, but I havent complained about it 1 damn time.

Tell me Im not crazy CE, tell me my wife needs to chill the **** out.

It depends on the person. If you just play video games all the time and do nothing else, sure. But I dont think playing games as a hobby is unhealthy, but it depends on the person.

10x would put it around $20, I doubt thats happening this bull run. $5-10 is what Im expecting this run.
