Reconciling personal budget

Same... and then weeping openly until my wife's next paycheck hits, lol.

This would imply a lack of budget or an ignoring of said budget. Not reconciling.

Actually, no. We are getting better about sticking to a budget. I get paid once a month, and wifey gets paid twice a month. It's just depressing when there's $20 left in the bank with another week to go to her paycheck. We pay all the bills at the beginning of the month, so there's fewer surprises after her second check lands.

Getting paid just once a month was real hard for me to get used to and it did take some time lol.

Yeah. It's not so bad now. We're just pushing the limits a bit more than I like. We got some plans in the works. We're likely going to refinance the house and get some repairs done. If it works out like I plan, it'll leave us a little bit of breathing room. We already have a tin roof scheduled to go on in November. We're trying to decide if it would be better to refinance now, or wait until after the tin goes on.

Yeah always so many decisions to make like that. Good luck!

If Scott asked me to go look at a situation here in my local area on behalf of NTG, for that time I consider myself a representative and part of NTG during that time. So anything I say or recommend would be the same as if someone drove down here from NTG and assessed the situation. That's how I would look at it.

Trying out bpytop in my opensuse vm. It looks nice so far.

So why do vendors like these not want their applications virtualized?
In this case it can be. But the complete incompetence of their software support just reinforces how out of touch they are with the 35+ year old technology they offer.

Ok thanks

The new one is ok but I prefer the old one a lot more.

"All I wanna do is zoom-zoom-zoom-zoom and a boom-boom." With a little ZM. Not a bad night for this ZM shareholder.

Right? Never thought they would go this high. I wonder if I should keep holding or not lol.

Interesting isn't it. As for holding, how long is work from home going to last???? Even if there is a vaccine, is WFH here to stay? Those are questions I ponder myself. I want to say yes and ZM will be fine for the next long while. Trying to figure out there retention rate myself.

My cost basis is around $60 so I sold around 10% of my holdings around $445 to get back my initial investment while I see what is going to happen. If after three days, it can hold, I will just buy back in and ride it to newer highs. Just wish I had bought more at $120 but it didn't "feel" right (see what emotions do! Grhh).

Yeah I understand totally. I bought in at 73. I will probably sell soon as I got more out of it than I dreamed for sure and don't want to be too greedy lol.

LOL I get that. I thought I was greedy by not selling when it was @ $165. Looks like holding was the answer. Now that its more than doubled since then, I decided to take some off. +30% overnight while at a prior all-time high, yeah, keeping a few of those bucks just seems prudent.

I can't figure out if they are going to keep going up, split or something else lol

Need to Buy a Phone, require to use it to do Full HD Videos and Photos,

options are:

• Redmi Note 8 Pro
• Redmi Note 8 Lite
• Redmi Note 9 Pro
• Redmi Note 8 Lite
• Redmi Note 10 Pro
• Redmi Note 8 Lite
• Huawei P30 Lite
• Huawei P40 Lite

What your comments are?

Note: No Apple or Samsung interested.

No Redmi here. Don't know them at all. Huawei should be amazing, but no Google Apps on it, which can be a negative. but for a camera, you can't beat it, and a great vendor. OnePlus looks really good. And Xiami.

Huawei announced end of products for this Sept 15th. So that is not a good choice now. Too Sad.

You mean for the older models? They are the world's top phone maker now, so unlikely to be going anywhere.

Yeah I am going to get their Mate40 as soon as it becomes available and it will replace my Mate9 which is still going strong and works flawlessly.

Someone on our team uses the Huawei laptop, too.

I was always curious about them but never got one. Looked nice though.

I know you have to use this Gene. But if you are able to use something else at some point Notion is an awesome tool. I use it for almost all of my notes and a ton of different other things. You could easily do a time tracking app in it if it helps.

I’ll look- and hold comments till then.

Yeah Notion is good for a lot of things.
