[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Would the money have less value to you if it didn't come in "like actual cash in five thick envelopes full of 100s plus a fat check"? Or did you just think we're too dumb to understand what 70K means unless you help us visualize it?

I'll tell you what I told the Jewelry OP, who did the same thing. You would have been so much better off buying tech stocks 20 years ago at a different bank. You're not factoring in inflation here in your pricing.

Real money in modern society is not in clothes or jewels. We're not living in huts and wearing our family's entire fortune on our person.

I actually got excited by fat envelopes full of cash because I don't have a car to get to ATMs or banks anymore. I miss cash.

I was like CASH!! But then it's just like a check and now I have to uber to the bank tomorrow to deposit it.

I miss cash in terms of being able to give tips, mostly.

I would have been able to do better to buy tech stocks 20 years ago but I think we did that. Like I have a pile of 100 statements piling up all the time because we have investment accounts for all of our kids.

I just sold some stuff today that was in my closet and I wasn't paying attention to because you're right, you are very correct, stuff I had is just not relevant today.

I guess you can get mad at me for agreeing with you but ... I'm agreeing with you[/quote]

Ya'll ... this ^^ is not real. We are just getting messed with. [/quote]

Yeah, I don't see how an ex-husband could keep you from getting a car.[/quote]

He can't keep me from getting a car, but I prefer to get stuff out of community funds and not the ones I have diverted over time into my name. I could, but so far I'm holding off.

I've been trying to balance using ubers against the upkeep and insurance for a new vehicle in my name. So far I'm like OK I might need $500 in ubers in the next few months or maybe even $1k but it's not a whole car.

I'm waiting to see what he does for my other 2 adult kids.

He's got a 50K planned luxury vacation for himself and his girlfriend January 2026 and he just put it all on my card. It's dumb, it's all documented that I'm not going to be there. He's asking my son to host it because he's the only bilingual one in his country.

I honestly think they just keep thinking I'll die[/quote]
