This. I bought a Garmin R10 for about $500. I bought a cheap hitting mat on amazon and a net. Set it up in the shop and play a few rounds with the fam on the weekends.

They aren't perfect and every once in a while give a bad read. It's accurate enough for for what use it for.

Amazon denies it planned to disclose cost of US tariffs on its website

At risk of getting flamed, the article's headline is that Amazon denied doing it. White House still denounced it. Also, I don't know if I really care if Amazon does it or not.

I have a really good friend I grew up with that wanted to rush a one of the black fraternities. According to him, they told him to wait to join because he was kind of a skinny guy and inferred that he needed to put weight on. We both assumed that meant they were going to beat his arse as a pledge, and they were.

Exactly. I think if I'm an oil company and they want to pin this bullshite on me, I'm pulling out the state and waiting for them to beg for us to come back.

I feel bad they lost their homes, etc. but this is exactly what these people voted for. They're kind of reaping what they've sown.

The decisions of the people they've elected caused this. In my opinion this type of disaster would have been avoidable or at least mitigated with proper management.

Felony theft? How much water did he steal? My water bill is $30 a month. It would take a few years to reach felony level.

I take mine off if I'm working with tools or messing around with something that may catch on it so I don't rip off my finger. Sometimes I'll switch to the silicon ring, but that's about it.

Lawyer here. Not "wealthy" not broke either. Self-employed and do pretty well for myself, and get to do all of the extracurricular activities with the kids.

I could kill myself working and probably ball out, but I'm a self-employed lawyer for the flexibility and not having to miss out on my kids growing up.

I know I make more than many other attorneys at my age level and even some older attorneys.

Could I make the same or more money if I worked at the plants? Probably, but I wouldn't be home with my kids everyday at 5:30 or see my kids every weekend instead of working.

The really wealthy lawyers you see are most likely workaholics and don't enjoy life.

Which real estate agent do you work for?

While your post isn't wrong, most buyers still cant swing the monthly note due to the interest rate. My facebook is full of realtors trying to convince people that now is a perfect time to buy. While you can probably get the house for a lot less than asking, the note is still a lot more than what people are paying for their current mortgage/rent, and if the house is in a flood zone, forget about it.

I make over 6 figs, and have a modest house, about $250k. Been looking at homes in the $350 to $500k range, but won't pull the trigger because it will more than double my note due to the interest rate being 3-4% higher. There's just no good reason to purchase a new home. I could likely swing it, but the increase in the cost of food, and everything else would kick me in the balls.
