    • How do I file taxes?
    How do adults not understand how to make financially sound decisions? I know there are plenty of different situations that require it, but I've watched many adults willingly buy boats when there isn't a body of water within 50 miles, or buy horses when they complain about not affording groceries.

    How does the boiler work?

    it stops working for 5 minutes so you call someone at like 11pm because without hot water you'll literally die immediately and they come and turn one knob like 90 degrees and tell you to just do that next time and kinda judge you for being so hopeless and this happens about every few months

    that's how it works

    • Everything?

    Seriously, important stuff like Taxes. And cooking, like real food.
    At least I know how to dive/have my own car and pay my bills. At least there's that.

    what are mortgages and insurance and and pensions and why do i need them

    basically the first two are because basic necessities like a home and medical bills and such is way too fucking expensive in the world for some reason to pay for all at once by yourself, and the latter is so when you stop working when you get old and crusty you don't go "oh shit I don't have any money/income wtf do I do"

    It's kinda scary at first, but it's something where you kinda just have to do it, and you'll eventually get used to it and it won't be scary anymore. That's how it was for me at least.

    now it's just the thought of driving to and from places i've never been to before that makes me shit myself

    What are all the things you can do with money instead of putting it in the bank and why are they supposed to be better?
