looks like the teeth won't even line up, what the fuck??

its best to stick with one brand....you got profile cranks? get a profile sprocket. that way you don't have to worry about it.

I use digit savings. Take a few dollars here and there and puts it into a savings account

I have my credit cards on auto pay and I also have a little auto pay that goes into my savings account

Not sure if you have it, but Acorns is a nice app that deposits your change into a fund. If you buy a drink for $3.50, it rounds up the change to the nearest dollar, i.e. 50c, and puts that in your Acorns fund.

I'm going to look into this.

I've started driving for Uber, and that seems to help a little. I need to get a TNC license to pick up in Houston city limits though. One guy that's been driving for Uber told me he goes around 10pm-3am to Downtown all weekend and will average 500 dollars a weekend. Stupid hours and probably stupid people but definitely seems worth it. And to get where I need to be I would only have to do a crazy shift like that once a month (assuming I can average at least 300) The goal after paying my cards off will be to pay off at least one vehicle next year.

Took my wife to get her 4d ultrasound done. Pretty wild to see the facial features of my daughter before she's born.

So one week down and I realized I spend about $200 on breakfast/lunch a month! Started cooking, made some spaghetti and now I've got lunch for 2 days. Crazy how you think "eh what's 10 bucks" adds up quick.

It doesn't matter who is elected. The central banks control the world. Best way to positively change our country is to eliminate the central banks, abolish the federal reserve and return to a gold backed currency. Just my opinion.

Retweet on the beans and rice. Also retweet on being in debt 

It takes a hell of a lot of money to be a grownup.

Adam what the fuck were you thinking getting into an auto loan at 20% get out of that shit fast.

I was dumb and impatient. The vehicles are refinanced as of yesterday.that's almost 500 I'm saying a month on both vehicles now. 

When I worked out of town and was given money for hotels in would get the cheapest hotel and split it with 3 other guys and buy bread/ham/ Mayo etc and eat nothing but sandwich all week. Going to try something like that again. Like I said earlier my biggest problem is I seem to have an addiction to going out to eat.

I refuse to believe you're Mexican and don't know how to make cheap burritos.

Where do I select an index fund? I spent a half hour googling about and sorta understand.

Burritos are more tex-mex and I'm not a big tex-mex fan. Sorry.

My mom literally just gave me a slow cooker. Stoked.
