    Everything in Breaking Bad stems from the wife being a bitch. Well, like the first 2 or so seasons I watched.

    Why in the world would you buy an RV and try to cook out in the middle of nowhere?

    Like that’s the dumbest plan of all. Difficult, and you stick out like a sore thumb.

    “Hunny, I’m dying from cancer. I’m going to play with my chemistry set in the basement. DON’T TOUCH ANYTHING. Thanksss”

    Cooks meth, sells it to Tuco, the end.

    Everything becomes so complicated in the show because it wouldn’t be a show without it being complicated.

    It’s like the writers just said “How can we stop Walt getting to his goal?” And did that every episode.

    Oh no, what’s going to happen in this episode to make cooking meth hard?


  • ~50% of men probably wear a size 9-11 shoe

    That’s a “Large” sock

    Man with a size 8 shoe could probably still wear a “Large” sock and be fine.

    ~75% of women wear a size 7-9

    Women with 6 or 6.5 should still be able to wear a 7-9 sized sock.

    Families have genetically similar feet

    I know from my experience, my father, my brother, and I all wear the same size. We all had different preferences and our own socks, but I could have easily worn their socks.

    Credit cards = Free Money

    1-5% cash back at most stores

    So you can either pay in cash (or debit card) and get nothing. Or you can use a credit card and get 1-5% cash back

    I need to spend $300 on groceries this month. If i had a credit card that did 5% on grocery purchases (one reason for multiple cards), then I’d have an extra 15 dollars this month. 180 dollars a year just because I used a credit card for a purchase I had to make.

    I could have used my debit card, and the funds could be pulled directly from my checking account. Or the funds will be pulled directly from my checking account at the end of the month when I need to pay off my balance.

    If I had an emergency $300 dollar expense in the middle of the month, I would have access to $300. If i purchased the groceries with the $300 in my checking account, I’d have no funds to hold over for 2 weeks. Longer if needed, a credit card can hold a balance for a price.

    There really isn’t a reason why you shouldn’t use a credit card in America, other than poor spending habits

    Credit cards can even give you perks like free cell phone accident protection when paying your wireless bill

    Have multiple cards with multiple limits = higher available debt

    The higher your available debt, the less percent you use out of it

    Debt utilization is a big part of a credit score. And just getting that down having multiple high limit cards is a strategy.

    Like if I spend 5k a month. One card with a 10k limit I am using 50% of my available credit. If i had 3 cards with 15k limits, I’d be using ~10%. Using 10%>50%

    Opening up cards hurts your credit score in the short term but helps in the long run. You shouldn’t close a card unless you have to because having it is going to help your score for reasons mentioned above.
