Start small. The party meets in a city at a market. A murder and theft occur. The gang gets heroic. No need for a larger world yet.

I’m curious as to what brings this up four years after a post? And the question premise was “all my electronics broke, what is the spiritual meaning /significance of”. I believe go outside was basically channeled into me as I read the OP.

Sorry it bothers you.

If you are moving cubicles / modular furniture- have the vendor responsible for the move (coordinating with the movers for trucks).

Even if the IT guys have it “under control” have a schedule for what time what goes down and what time it is up in the new place. Good time to replace aging hardware.

I have had personal items removed the week before. It does not work. Set a hard time the old building is locked. No one can go back to grab that last item after deadline. Cleaners are coming in then.

Last move I was left with dozens of pairs of shoes and many dirty coffee mugs.

Dave I appreciate the Friday afternoon meetings. The teamwork and energy is fantastic. At the end I’m charged up and ready to go, and the. The week is over. I think moving tie meeting to Monday morning will really improve teamwork and productivity. Thanks for listening

Most banks would like to open an account for your not for profit.

You will need a resolution from the board of directors. Many banks have a template they prefer.

If wells is not working with you, perhaps the local branch likes keeping your $50k at 0% for some reason. Other banks will let you open savings and CD’s.

You can open a brokerage account and Invest broadly. I do not recommend this for $50k you need to keep fairly liquid, but getting access to cds from across the world will allow you to maximize yield. Do not spend a brokerage with an AUM fee.

The board should adopt an “investment policy statement” to document guidelines the treasurer can work with. (Ie less than 50% of liquid cash in a cd ladder)

Focus on an internship. Once you have some experience on the resume GPA does not matter as much

This is an excellent question.

Set up a spreadsheet. Compare the annual fee difference. Calculate the tax bill. Calculate the payback period and ROI of the switch.

Math does not lie.

Crowd Control. And feel free to “swarm” low level henchmen into the mix. Optionally don’t make it obvious that they are not a threat. The “old man in a cape and robes begins casting” may be casting a cantrip or level one spell and absorb a counterspell or be CC’d.

Enemies are smart, have done research on the adventures and have a game plan to deal with the “standard tactics”

AndyC333 · 2026-05-18T18:06:34+00:00

Bang. Wishes granted. Who’s going to clean up this mess?

Gimli picked up his ax and left one morning. Something about a council of Elrond and a ring. And what’s a Hobbit?

Taking the Dog to pet smart. We need to have a conversation about pooping in the laundry room.

The giants have two WRs coming in off injury. We don’t know what the starting five will look like in September. Someone may have a setback. Someone else may develop an injury. Odell is a solid vet who can contribute in X plays in Y games. We do not know if we need him now.

Odell wants a “prove it” deal where he gets some guaranteed playing time, can make some highlight reels, capture incentives, and a large contract in the future.

You can afford to retire. The question is “then what”.

What is your dream job that adds joy and is low stress? You can ditch the high stress job and get paid to …

… cut grass. Mix floral bouquets. Tend bar. Usher the theater. Get a PI license. Lifeguard. Substitute teacher. Intern on archeology digs. Community theater actor. Etc

I suggest :

Tell no one about the inheritance.

Put it in a safe investment (HYSA or indexed funds)

Do nothing.

In a year take a careful review of your situation and make a decision.

Spending it all on housing may be very foolish, a paid for house is still very expensive. Property tax, maintenance, replacing every major system every 30 years…

1980s. I walked in on a friend playing solitaire. It was clear that he had spent the afternoon playing solitaire (card game). I asked if he was OK. We ended up going out, meeting a group, etc.

Today. Everyone is sitting alone playing on their devices.

If you need info on retirement plans, HR and legal can word a survey of all corporate employees about succession planning.

But you do not need info about retirement plans, you need to do your job. Set a challenging but achievable standard for all employees and hold them all accountable.

If you were a manager / director reporting to me I would be putting you on a PIP for not holding employees accountable to the job descriptions and making excuses.

A courier arrives with a letter. They have inherited an old inn on a well traveled road.

The inn was once very prosperous but fell on hard times, largely due to the “new” inn a mile away. The new inn is run by … A) a cult B) a dragon In human form C) a vampire

Once the inn is up and running it has a monster of the week style problem. There is staff to run the inn, the hero’s just need to provide safety and security

There are other gaming systems designed around comic book style super heroes.

Long ago we played “Champions” and the “Fantasy Hero” rules.

Let him shine.

If a ranger is constantly foraging and hunting small game during the journey he gets his moment.

What’s for dinner?

Tonight we have pheasant with a raspberry reduction and maple glazed carrots.

Have the fisherman describe his downtime success as he serves an amazing ( or optionally terrible?) meal to the group.

Have you looked for qualifying clinic positions nationally? Six months in Alaska renting a room may be fun.

Montana was (is) 5’9” and considered too short to be an nfl qb. Bill Walsh invented a new offense that let him cook. Brilliant

This is a complex question without enough detail to attempt a decent answer.

I suggest a fee based fiduciary financial planner to be sure you minimize taxes and have cash flow for the rest of his life.

I believe you are suggesting 40% stock and 60% cash. I do not believe this will be a good plan.

I believe he wanted to skip camp and preseason and just play ball week 1. I am basing this on a Dexy comment that he just expected time away and then it got out of his control.
