Like it or not they have a monopoly on the most active forum service. To the point where no other service is really useful when it comes to asking live questions and getting live answers for many different topics.

How do I do that? Just google "local accountants"? How do I find one that will be more targeted to individuals rather than businesses?

Yeah I've been trying to. I haven't been on it for nearly half a year at this point. I'm fine with using Lemmy but there are some things Lemmy isn't great at like having thriving communities I can direct questions about personal finance to and getting a wide variety of opinions. Or even pottery discussion. Lemmy is almost only about politics, Linux, and Star Trek memes. Not much more than that.

I actually think Lemmy has started to die off more since I've been here. I'm guessing I was part of some large migration when I started but now most of those people have stopped coming on several months later.

Depending on how much you saved you could maybe hit FIRE. otherwise if you're just starting you might be able to hit FI but probably not the retire early part depending on your expenses.

I know some people that had lucrative jobs that lost them and had to go working part time at Office Depot though so maybe you're like them and have a ton saved.

Sentenced but not yet executed.

it's a wonder shit like this happens and they still get elected as senators. i have zero faith in the American populace at this point and can only hope my state secedes.

This is what Americans voted for (or failed to vote against).

I'm happy they're scared.

That's the dream.

Ah I see.
