50,000 sounds like a lot. Most people in West European countries don’t make that much.
I don’t know, I do associate the name Roman with Russia just because the only Roman I can think of is Roman Abramovich.
It can be also a married person tax depending on your circumstances. If both spouses make similar amounts then they are getting taxed more as a married couple, because the bracket threshold for a married couple are less…
The lottery has been around since way before 2020, I believe. You do get preferential assignment to one school close to you. Most schools can take in all the kids that have this neighborhood preference but I believe…

Kanopy has a few or her movies. It's a platform that partners with public libraries to make content available to their members. For those in San Francisco, for instance, you can get an account as long as you have an SF…
I thought the same (bad transit, people don't use it, it becomes even worse), but after no longer being able to ride my bike, I realized that many buses and Muni trains are packed at least at rush hour. People do use…
