accept offer then reject bc you got better one

I dont even know what renege means
you accept an offer then you go and accept another offer , and then decline the very first offer.

basically reverse rescind

ChatGPT:
To transfer money to a different account in Fidelity, you can use the Fidelity website or mobile app. Here are the steps to do so:
Log in to your Fidelity account.
Navigate to the "Transfer & Pay" section and select "Transfer Money."
Select the account you want to transfer money from and the account you want to transfer money to.
Enter the amount you want to transfer and the date you want the transfer to occur.
Review and confirm the details of the transfer.
Submit the transfer request.
It's important to note that you may need to verify the account you are transferring money to by providing additional information. Also, you might be subject to certain limitations on the amount or frequency of money transfers, depending on your account type.

Cooking recipe?
raw echo
renege should be illegal tbh
I used to feel this way too, but consider the ceos abusing h1b workers working 80 hours, the staff google employees getting fired for no reason, the 10k+ interns who were misled and didn’t get return offers, and the companies rescinding accepted job offers (sometimes 1 month out and with visa sponsorship). It’s a two way street

You'd be ruining lives, which is why I'm hesitant to sign up as an interviewer
At the same time though it's kind of up to us to cover those edge cases as an interviewee

The concept that helps me is flights.
0-50k is you can't tangibly afford flights without some extreme lifestyle commitments.
50-100k is you can get an economy ticket but it'll feel like a lot for an international flight
100-200k is where flights feel less burdensome and you can take basically one a year
200-400k is where you start dabbling into economy+, comfortable seats, meals etc
400k+ is first class tickets n shit
Anything above a mil in TC and you're in jet/private flight territory

That's because you don't have 10-20mil generating 400-800k a year. Trust me, when it comes to that point you will adopt certain lifestyle habits

You'll want more. It's best to prepare yourself mentally now, so you can do the things you can to help your lifestyle inflation
I learned this the hard way ngl. I wanted nothing expect a meh job, a meh apartment with a gaming set up
All I wanted was a good enough PC to run my games with decent internet speed
Little things change and slowly I see my own worth, then one thing leads to another I have none of the new things I want and I have no idea how to get there
If my wife wasn't there to push me up, idk where I'd be
Then I started to build myself mentally in prep for my life. I started working out, kicking away toxic friends, building a good network, preparing LC/resume, doing freelance etc

I mean I'm sure they'd live to earn their own money. I'm just helping them start. I'm not ambitious enough to consider 20 mil as an entire lifetimes sum for my kid but it's enough for them to be something bigger than what I was
Also I'm not putting 20 mil in the fund, it'll prob be like 2-3 mil in today's standards

I'm planning on buying a hot hatch in 2025 and my top 4 choices are in order of price(all are manual transmission and I intend on buying a manual transmission car)
Elantra N(Cheapest)
Civic type r/corolla gr(total wildcard with all the markups nowadays)
Golf R
The Golf R has the superior powertrain but apparently the driving experience feels dead
I'd love to get the WRX STI...if they were still being built
I'll try my hand at getting a Corolla GR, assuming I'm lucky with pricing
Will drive 300 miles away to another dealer just to get one

Hyundai N is goated

Battery degradation too, also early model Model S sedans burn through their motors really quickly

i think theres like a consumer rebate if they buy an EV, except it makes no difference cause all the car companies just raised their car prices by that amount
and mind you car companies are just making EV's for the sake of EV
youd expect EV's to be standard consumer sedans n small compact shit, given the whole point
but no theyre just making their biggest cars EV's
