New PC, new chain and sprocket for my moto, or pay down some debt would be nice, ain’t gonna happen tho lol.
My wife to stop drinking.
More than three days off this month.
Wish I had friends to spend it with instead of a person who is abusive and swears at me every day.
I want real freedom. It’s basically impossible.
Freedom is free, comfort is what costs.
While I’m a huge fan of what you’re saying, I’m more about going unimpeded. Barriers really suck.
That’s easy. Just stop wanting to do the things you can’t do.
That sounds like a restriction.
Snow
real and true.
A reversal of the cuts my health insurance is making and further to have all of my healthcare paid for by the insurance I pay a ton of money to have. Especially hurts since the insurance company is my employer, or at least I used to. Now they have the same parent company or whatever they call it these days.
My mum to meet my daughter.
I want to have children, but cannot afford them for an undetermined amount of time. Fingers crossed that we’ll have enough money someday!
Seconding other comments, you’ll never ever be financially ready, there will always be new concerns, but that was true for most parents. People far less intelligent and less prepared than you have figured it out and done alright.
3 kids here 12 and under. If you are mentally and emotionally ready for kids just do it. That’s the big secret. You will never be ready financially. Kids adapt and will be happy so long as you are stable and can provide the most important necessities like love, a roof and food.
If I had serious financial stress I cannot imagine also having kid stress. What if one needs serious medical attention or has special education needs?
I dunno. This seems reckless.
So, possible, but they probably won’t. Anything can happen at any time and you could do everything right and it could all fail spontaneously and catastrophically through no fault of your own. Its not a likely outcome though.
It only seems reckless until you step back and think about it rationally. You can’t expect to prepare for everything so spend your time on more legitimate worries.
Granted in America yes those are concerns we don’t have to the same degree in Canada but all things considered having a kid is reckless anyways. You either adapt and make it work or you don’t.
Happiness.
I have all that I can reasonably want that I could reasonably be given, so I’m making a gift instead, I’m off donating blood in half an hour, hopefully someone will appreciate it 😋
To spend xmas with my grandparents that passed away!
The motherboard in my computer is basically dead. Every morning I must perform voodoo to get just one more post.
But my computer is fairly old now and I can’t justify just replacing the board for more money than upgrading the platform. 😔
Linux market share to grow more
B… But I thought 2025 would be the year of the Linux desktop!
A (significant) raise in salary (after tax) to invest and hopefully increase my portfolio.
