    Toyota moving to Texas

    I think the point morekaos is trying to make is that California could be great in all aspects, not just weather/location. If California took a more moderate approach to taxes and operating business environment it would be in a much better place - kind of like a business that maintains lower...

    President Trump

    I would pay money to watch a Stephen A vs Trump debate. That would be hilarous.

    President Trump

    I don’t know which side of the government is lying, probably both. All it tells me is how sad things have gotten in this country when you can’t trust either side. Perhaps it has always been this way and now I’m just old enough to realize it

    Minimum Wage Increase Impact/Effect

    Well in theory this great. But the practical reality is that we can not have living wages and cheap things. You can only charge so much for certain products. Everyone needs a return on their capital and if that return isn’t there they will shut down. Right now the risk free rate on a 10year...

    President Trump

    They should build a city out in central California away from everyone - just for the homeless. You can stay permanently or you can get some sort of trade training and try to improve your life. But you don’t get to be homeless and mess with everyone’s neighborhood and safety. Homelessness is...

    BBB - taxes on overtime

    If you were to get audited and they asked you what the business reason was for the change you better have a good answer or they can go after you for aiding in tax evasion. Companies can generally come up with a decent enough explanation where if they disagree they just ask for the taxes that...

    BBB - taxes on overtime

    You can designate yourself however you want but the risk comes if you get audited by the CA FTB or IRS. Then you better hope you can claim ignorance vs tax evasion You can get ahead of it by making a donation to Trump to have your pardon ready :-)

    Cielo million dollar price drops

    I saw a car chase last week on KCAL and some car went straight at a dead end street and hit the wall/bushes. On the other side of the wall was a blue Tesla. Probably some cosmetic damage to the car. But one of the first things I thought of was that was exactly why I would never live at a house...

    Retail Openings and Closures

    Ended up going, took about 7 minutes to get in the store. The hot food section looks good. We got some food but have not eaten it yet. It is all priced by the pound 10.99 per pound. They have wagyu sliders, which I was pleasantly surprised by. In Japan this summer I kept eating the frozen grape...

    BBB - taxes on overtime

    Forgot to respond to this previously. An owner of a company will in all likelihood be considered an exempt employee. Not sure what your company is structured as (s corp, c corp, llc, etc) but if you own 20% or more of the business and you work in the business you will generally be an exempt...

    Toyota moving to Texas

    The good deals are pretty much on EVs on leasehackr. Then you see some good deals on cars nobody wants (jeeps, etc). I used to lease BMWs pre-covid, but the last two we bought. For owing to reallly payoff you need to own the car for about 7 years and then sell it to get around 20k back to...

    Retail Openings and Closures

    Parking isn’t great there, assuming this store will make it worse. But god to have one nearby vs having to go to Costa Mesa

    Recommendation for front load washer

    I have not done 1 or 2. The soap tray looks pretty clean, we use the tide HE liquid detergent from Costco. Maybe I’ll do both 1 and 2 soon and will report back :)

    Recommendation for front load washer

    We got this in June of 2023 and we have had no issues whatsoever. Front loaders have an issue with mold in the door seal because most people leave the door closed after they use it so the water never really dries. We just leave the door open and only close it when in use. Then periodically we...

    ICE or EV?

    Not sure this is ICE vs EV as much as Chrysler/Jeep/Ram putting out shitty products. Dodge and Ram are just trucks and muscle cars, which I think never really became EVs. The grand Cherokee was the only good looking car they had and they changed the design for the worse.

    Work in office or remote?

    Given his Taco Bell background and chipotle background I was pulling for him to make the turnaround happen. But given his hypocrisy I hope he gets fired for failing. To be somewhat fair CEOs travel a lot but if his direct reports are in Seattle he should be too. People don’t see hypocrites as...

    ICE or EV?

    I have not driven a cayenne. Although I believe repairs and maintenenace will be even more expensive than a BMW.

    ICE or EV?

    I did :-) I did get one temporarily and ultimately landed on 1.99% 15 year. So it was a win win for me
