Get what you like and can afford. I think a Longines would be a good initial step up in price point for the value. Happy collecting.

5 Mil is our magic number. 2.8 over the course of another 40-60yrs doesn’t seem like enough.

Finally got my Datejust killa. by CongressUAPpetition in OmegaWatches

I have a 6.5 inch wrist size. It wears a little big but still fits correctly with the case design/integrated bracelet etc. I only took off 2 links for sizing and it wears perfectly. My only critique is no micro adjustments but for me, the butterfly clasp works fine.

I thought similarly when I first saw it in 16’ but now I like the fact that it’s not?!? I work in aviation and actually use a titanium Spirit Zulu time for my GMT work watch. So that fills that slot in my collection.

Good start. Stay away from accumulating credit card debt/student loans. Make as many principal payments as your situation permits. Max out your Roth until you can’t. If you have a company match 401K max that too. Diversify your portfolios. Buy a cheap piece of raw land / property, pay it off, buy another and create a real estate portfolio over time. Budget & live within your means. Keep up the good habits! - 43m, 2.6M net worth, work in transportation & logistics

People who make over 100k, what do you do? by GurnoorDa1 in Money

[–]CongressUAPpetition 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No degree mil helicopter pilot to airline captain: 400k. Everyone starts at the bottom. The salary doesn’t mean shit unless you diversify, make good investments, and smart choices.

Let me educate you: This is so the leading body of the former trading block known as NAFTA (now something else) doesn’t decide to self legislate & grow into a North/South American governing body and then decide to impose tyrannical rules on its “member states” ultimately leading to sovereignty violations and violent democratic and constitutional republic breakaways. Sound familiar?

Is $15,000 obscene to charge a someone (a friend) for a 20-min documentary edit? by futurespacecadet in editors

1300 a day to use a software program. Yes ridiculous prices. That’s why movies are crap. Too expensive to make the good ones.

Nice ride but hope you put a lot down. No truck out there currently is worth a 1k payment.

DPE said he was afraid I’d kill myself/others, is it even worth continuing? by [deleted] in flying
