deconstruct@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Vivek Ramaswamy’s policy proposals and how they would transform the U.S.4·2 年前This nonsense might have a small chance if it was Reagan proposing it in 1980. But it’s a different world.
The longer he sticks around the worse the GOP looks to anyone with a brain.
This isn’t news, just a rando’s opinion in his blog.
deconstruct@lemmy.worldtoPersonal Finance@lemmy.ml•Anyone interested in moderating this community?English1·2 年前I could help out with moderation, but I don’t know enough about Lemmy to be a head mod.
I’m interested in PF and would like to see this community grow.

deconstruct@lemmy.worldOPtoPersonal Finance@lemmy.ml•Mortgage rates soar to their highest level in 21 yearsEnglish41·2 年前Below 4% is a huge win. I bought my house in 2007 at 6.5%. Refinanced after the financial meltdown at 5% then again in 2012 at 3.25%.

deconstruct@lemmy.worldtoPersonal Finance@lemmy.ml•How to curb unnecessary consumer impulses?English6·2 年前If you’re impulse buying crap online, I find keeping items in the shopping cart for a day or so gives me time to think before pulling the trigger. If it’s an emergency that’s one thing, but most of the time it can wait.
Also I find budgetting apps to be really helpful in curbing unnecessary spending.

Boomers are leading the wayEnglish4·2 年前Gen Y (millenials) saw the second largest increase. Balances for millenials and Gen Z are much lower due to other expenses like student loans.
