I do this awesome thing where I see a comment or link I want to save, so I do, and then completely forget it all exists and never check anything I've ever saved.

I'm sure there's quite a pile by now lol

I used to use the save or whatever in reddit but that all went to the wind.

[–] TheFunkyMonk@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Same. Saving this.

I'm not gonna link to the "other site" but the post starts with "Congrats, you won the lottery. You're fucked."

Great resource of no nonsense advice. I'm sure it's copied elsewhere.

I think about this one a lot. IIRC the gist was "Don't tell anyone. Get a lawyer. Don't tell anyone. Get rid of most of it."

Everything from PoppinKream(?).

Whay did they report on again? Haven't heard that name in a while.

[–] SinningStromgald@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Usually saw them when they would comment on a news article with a well researched answer.
