Yeah, Doctors. -
Great thread topic, thank you for prompting. I had not sat down yet this year and put things on paper like I usually do the week between Christmas and New Years. Most people don't have a plan that fails, but more often, fail to plan. Continue maxing out 401k. Starting my 27th year with the same company, so I feel decent about retirement fund. Likely going to grind another 10 years and try to get to 65. Sell my recently deceased FIL's house. Use equity to remodel beach house. We have an unfinished first floor that will add a lot of usable square footage and will prepare us for future family growth (spouses and gr kids good Lord willing) and add a lot of value. One in college (jr) and two more soon. Continue $100/week + $500 monthly + $1,500 quarterly to Vanguard Brokerage and 529. Comes out to appx $17K a year, for college and what i call the intermediate needs fund. Been pounding it for 20 years and have tinkered with the amounts based on needs/earnings etc.. dollar cost averaging and compounding for the younger readers is a phenomenon that is real and is hard to understand when young, but just do it, you will never miss $50 a week or whatever, and one day you will look up and be happy. Based on college expenses thus far, should be aok with what is in the account and what im adding if my 9th grade math is correct. Continue to keep debt limited to mortgages (2) and 2 autos, could pay both cars off but the one Apr is 1.7% and the other is a lower balance. 3 paid for. Like someone said above, we too drive them until the wheels fall off. Would be thrilled with 10% this year from the market (almost entirely in index funds) after 2 years of 25%+. Continue to horde cash from quarterly bonuses. Wife (no pics) is a realtor so we have a tax bill every year and she has a nice cash pile plus 2 paid off rentals. I like to keep a certain amount completely liquid, just my thing. I feel like keeping 10%-15% in cd's and savings allows me to sleep well at night, I can be a bit of a cynic with money. Good luck to all, though if you reading this , you are already doing the right thing by educating yourself and making sure to have a plan. nice job!

Double post, edit button not working...forgot he was only a FR and Niblett's TD was vs ULM. I like this kid a lot and hope he contributes next season.
-
yeah i could see that being the KO return duo and Niblett starting off as PR with Butler being worked in. I think Niblett could an X factor next year. Somewhat of a veteran, played multiple roles, good measurables. I seem to recall a nice short yardage run where we made a subtle nice move that gained yardage (may have been a TD, not sure if he registered one last season), iirc it was (ahem) inside the 5.

my guess will be Butler.

You did the right thing. I know people on the gulf coast who were not damaged one bit, but filed BP claims none the less. -

This is why my wife (no pics) had her best year in the business (RE Agent). Buyers and Sellers need an agent. Shes been at it 10 years and is doing well. -

Non Texas Recruiting 2025: Look at the poors trying so hard
jdhorn92 replied to Ricky's one-hitter's topic in 🤫$9.95🤫
Bama commit Ty Haywood, 5* Tackle from Denton just de-committed. Didnt sign in the early period. https://www.tuscaloosanews.com/story/sports/college/football/2025/01/13/2025-5-star-ty-haywood-ends-commitment-to-alabama-football/76774928007/ -
The deep ball was a staple for Sark at Bama. Unfortunately, QE was very poor at it. Throw in the lack of ability to extend plays (due to injury or skill set) and the O (while very effective) was never able to get to 5th gear imo, especially vs better competition. MSU game was on verge of blowout if Cook catches the one deep ball thrown well. QE missed Bond on the deep in early vs OU and any number of at least half dozen missed TD's deep kept our games closer. Im nitpicking here, but the next few QB's coming up I believe possess the physical tools QE lacked and id be surprised if offensive explosive plays dont follow.

On short shardage more than once Thursday night, Penn St lined up a huge OL in the H-back position. They put him in motion pre-snap and ran him between the center and right guard. Worked really well as he had somewhat of a running head start. Believe they had Allar in shotgun and the RB followed him in to the hole. Would like to find replays of the 2 times they did to evaluate the success rate but IIRC it worked vs NDU's front. I thought to myself that Sark has to be watching this play, but too late to add it. Be curious to see if he adds that to goal line next year. Very clever.
