  • All depends on your personality and possible HOA’s in a more populated area.

    Personally, I don’t have a problem being separated from people, and you don’t have to be lonely just because you’re away from people - animals can provide you company and keep you busy. I would go with the more recluse location as you can do what you with your property more so than in a neighborhood. Grow a garden, have a bon fire, and just generally have more freedom. Land and houses are generally cheaper a little farther out so that also helps. As long as you have a reliable mode of transportation then living farther away from people is my go to. Also, a plus if you work remote and don’t have to commute.

    Yep, find credit cards with no monthly fee and open them. I have 3 lines of credit and only use the one with the highest benefits. I pay off the bill after it hits my statement, and my credit is always 780-790. Also, like you said, up your limit if you can to get a lower debt to available credit ratio.

    Edit: I bet the people down voting me have terrible credit lol.




  • Yea you’re not wrong. The Republicans are playing the long game here. They’re really getting involved with the youth, I mean just look at rumble for example and whatever other medium they’ve been using. The Democrats are virtually non-existent it feels like on the social networking side of things or maybe it’s just the Right is obnoxiously loud. It’s scary man, if they can mobilize and weaponize the younger demographic voters then what does that spell for the short term (2028) or even the longer term when their ideals are fully cemented and are less likely to be swayed unless a serious upheaval happens.



  • Yea, most musicians are generally not that well off and have as much free time as you think. Most still work some sort of regular job to offset the cost of living and equipment because they won’t make the money they need to survive solely off of the money from gigs. They do it because they love it and not because they’re making tons of money and have ample free time. Their hobby is music, so whatever downtime they have from regular life, they fill it with playing and writing music. If you’re fortunate enough to be signed to a label, you’re on the road for months out of the year gigging and constantly immersed in your music, and that definitely isn’t a health benefit either. There is a thing down here called the Musicians Clinic - musicians don’t have a typical job and therefore don’t have access to medical insurance like they would if they worked a 9-5 with benefits, so it supplements that to keep them healthy.
