Hello beeple! Another week, another thread, this one kind of late 🙃. Feel free to comment below with anything and everything money related that is better suited to a conversation or a quick question and answer than a full post. Some ideas include:

Journaling about an ongoing job search
Asking for ideas about how to manage an emergency fund
Logging recent stock trades
Talking about the impact of inflation on your budget
Your plans for maximizing the rewards on a credit card

Again, those are just suggestions, if there’s really anything you’d like to talk about related to finance in your life, feel free to put it here.

Another relatively quiet week for me. I did join a gym, which based on some cancellation stories I've seen might as well be signing my life savings away, but I definitely don't have anywhere in my apartment to keep a rowing machine. I'm also nearing the end of my FSA funds about 5 months earlier than I had hoped, which isn't great but I still have some money left over in my old employer's HSA that I need to start spending before the custodian nickel and dimes me out it.

For my hobby account I have had some dividends come in which is nice, it means I have about 5 more dollars than I did before with a smidge more on the way.

For my paper account, my strangle is in the green, though if I was looking short term and had been smart I would have closed it sometime last week for a few hundred in profit, which for a week at a risk of about $10k fake dollars is not so bad, but I am hoping that by looking long term I'll be able to capture something more substantial.
