Please not the old-lady-harkonen tits. Need some emperors daughter tits.

I keep trying to watch this and want to like it…but man it is boring. Quite the snoozer. Which character are you supposed to even root for? Not GOT caliber. Disappointing.

I also read Attias book Outlive. Also gifted to my parents. I started lifting again on the regular right after Covid. I go every day after dropping kids at school. I’m late 40s and still able to make new gains so it’s definitely possible. I think lifting is probably single best thing anyone can do for their health and lifespan. I added more zone 2 low impact training too, per Peter’s recommendation. my eating can still be improved. I’m a sucker for carbs. Also still enjoy drinking, but try to have a few days off per week to cleanse a bit. Also try not to drink solo at home, just when doing something fun. I try to take a multivitamin but I’m really bad about taking on the regular. stress need to be improved, kids and work ensure I have a daily dose.

Did anyone’s kids do the IB track in HS, vs just AP/Honors track? If they went IB, was it worth it, good or bad? My kids a Freshman and we were looking at IB last night. Very different Jr and Sr classes. I don’t know if there is good ROI for IB.

Apparently so. Thought it was prudent, but seriously, what’s the calculus for any alt coin other than Bitcoin? Dogecoin to the moon…crazy irrational clown town we live in.

Only crypto I bought was Eth. I bought 3 years ago and am exactly flat in 3 years. Who would have guessed Dogecoin would have been better. Crazy world.

My 14 yo has entered full teenage stage. Total DA, does nothing we ask, back talking, yelling and general jackass. Every time we turn our back he’s sneaking Nintendo or iPhone when he’s supposed to be doing something else. Simple things take hours. He takes his phone into bathroom for 8 “shits” per day. We haven’t even gotten into the sneaking out and drinking phase, yet. Had to pray to the Lord today to ensure I didn’t beat his ass. Please tell me this will pass. Enjoy those early years as long as you can.

I’d put my money on Rogan.

I’ve not done the worksheet. Assuming no debts, for 10k a month, you need $4M, assuming 3% withdrawal and no SS. Is that vacations at Port A and a used Toyota+health insurance? $6M gets you $15k a month, is that NY vacation, Tesla and health insurance? $8M gets you $20k a month; is that one month international trip per quarter plus health insurance? Just curious what lifestyles people are striving toward.

Approx what # are you budgeting for when you are >60 year old? Reason I ask is my kids have busted my budget, so no idea what’s a realistic number for when I’m older and empty nester. $10k? $15k? 20k? Adjust for inflation or just assume a somewhat lower 7% market return?

I bought some TEM, Tempus AI, medical AI LLM. I don’t know if it’s a stonk as it has actual revenue. It’s only been public a couple of months, and very volatile, so I consider stonk. Cathy woods also invested, so very speculative.

So do I buy shares at $20 or what?

Good thing I bought some FB before earnings thinking it was a cheap tech stock. WTF. Need to stick to index funds.

No I did not unfortunately but thanks for the reminder. Stonk meltdowns have had me preoccupied at the moment, but need to revisit some P2E NFTs. That and staking….got to do it just to learn.

Thanks. Agree there are a ton of P2E projects coming online. But I need to start with one. You can play crypto raider on iPhone browser, correct? I joined the guild of guardians discord, missed a free drop by a few weeks. Gameplay looks pretty interesting. too bad startup costs are >$600 USD for most of these…makes me hesitate a bit considering how many projects there will be this year.
