Would selling my condo now be a dumb choice?

Would selling my condo now be a dumb choice? I’m not convinced in the longevity of the city I own a condo in, I got the mortgage 5 years ago when I was 21 and the value of the property shot up during Covid, I refinanced down to 3.375% which I don’t want to lose. The passive income is okay but I think I should capitalize on the value now, and invest my profits to make a more wise purchase …

[LPT] If you’re unsure about a decision, use a random choice picker or random number generator to pick for you.

If you’re unsure about a decision, use a random choice picker or random number generator to pick for you. Before you start arguing with me in the comments, hear me out. All my life I’ve been a chronic overthinker. Even making the simplest decisions, like what I want to eat at a restaurant, is agonizingly painful for me. Any time I think I’ve settled on the option I want, I start overthinking my decision and wonder if it’s right. It’s like an endless…

Overplayed classics 90s edition: what’s your “OMG I never want to hear that song again” choice from the 90s.

Overplayed classics 90s edition: what’s your “OMG I never want to hear that song again” choice from the 90s. Note: I’m not talking about songs you just don’t like. So awhile ago I did a classic rock playlist where I did my best to remove all the overplayed classics (Stairway to Heaven, Bohemian Rhapsody, Hotel California) and replace them with lesser known radio tracks or deep cuts. The goal was to make a list that would familiarize a younger listener…

Is a 24-105mm f/4 a good choice for a lightweight all-in-one portrait lens?

( www.reddit.com )

Is a 24-105mm f/4 a good choice for a lightweight all-in-one portrait lens? I’m an amateur portrait shooter with an A7III, and I currently shoot with the Tamron 28-75mm G1. The vast majority of my shots were made at 75mm, with a significant number in 50mm and 35mm respectively. There are many fast standard zooms for E-mount, but they all end up around 70mm. Of course, there’s the 35-150mm from Tamron, which is the idea…

LPT: Not everything needs a response or action. Sometimes, doing nothing can be the best choice.

LPT: Not everything needs a response or action. Sometimes, doing nothing can be the best choice. Couple examples: When someone insults you, sometimes not reacting removes the person’s power over you. When you’re introduced into a new friend group, probably a good idea to wait before immediately trying to flirt with whomever you’re attracted to. What are some times when you’ve realized inaction ended up being the best decision? submitt…

Canon RP vs Sony A7II choice dilemma Hi, I’m at a point where I would like to buy an entry-level full frame mirrorless camera. My budget does not allow me to go further than $700 for a camera (prefer to spend more money on lens) – that’s around a price tag for those cameras from 2nd hand. I’m mostly into portrait photography, it is also important to me for a camera to handle night …

LPT: If you have a choice of daycare days, don’t do Mondays.

( www.reddit.com )

LPT: If you have a choice of daycare days, don’t do Mondays. I’m not sure how many people are in a similar situation, but we learned the hard way. My wife and I both work partly from home, partly on site. We could potentially schedule to cover for each other when we were at work, but you can’t get much work from home done with a baby, so we needed to enroll her in daycare. Five days a week would be unaffo…
