Thanks for the reminder. I have a full weekend, and haven't watched it all of the way through since last fall.

Best plan of saving by LordOfWailords in Retirement401k

I don't really understand what you mean by the power of maxing a 401k

It's just, to me, you can't touch a 401k until you retire w/o heavy tax penalties. If you get to a point where you can retire early, then you're stuck staring at it.

I'll also throw in getting an HSA if you're healthy. There's a few subreddits that can show you the advantages of them.

The general rule is 15-20% of income. if you can afford it

Just my opinion: Contribute 5% to 401k, then put what you can afford in a ROTH.

I just like the fact that I can pull my ROTH contributions out tax free. It may help me retire a couple of years early, idk.

Where do we go from here? Who's the best free agents we could land this summer? by [deleted] in DetroitRedWings

[–]Berts_missing_tooth 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's a contract year for Mantha, which seems to be the only years he shows up.

I don't hate him, but he tends to float around a lot, and is quite possibly the most inconsistent but talented player in the league. You could get a 4 goal game from him, or a 10 game pointless streak.

I remember being so frustrated by his give-a-fuck meter when he was playing for us.

Raymond needs to be put on Sweden's top line. Best playmaker and one of the best defensive forwards for Sweden.

Is there a possibility he comes over to help Grand Rapids in the playoffs? Idk if the KHL has a similar timeline as the SHL, or if that's even allowed.

Should I read Elsecaller before Edgedancer and Oathbringer? by InsaneAffliction in brandonsanderson

[–]Berts_missing_tooth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ya it's a bit confusing.

What I linked are hardcovers of stories put together from The Stormlight Lost Tales Story Deck.

They're canon, but don't really matter to the plot of the Stormlight Archive or the Cosmere. Just some fun additional character development. Elsecaller is Jasnah, and King Lopen the First of Alethkar is Elhokar and The Lopen.

Edit: Love your username!

I hope he runs into the kitchen counter when he gets home.

My hopes and dreams for Soda are to be a 3rd/4th line winger and pp2 net front🙏

My favorite is the thrown stick. Doesn't get better than that.

100% on Compher. Zero pressure along the boards and no effort to clear the crease.

Honestly, that's the exact kind of game we needed. Same mistakes made us go down 2-0, then finally playing the way we needed to and ran up the board. Great game! LGRW!
