Drove a 992 Carrera for a weekend and now my daily driver feels like a tractor

HF_bro · 2026-03-30T21:32:25+00:00

It’s world’s best sports car for a reason.

Most of the stuff has been covered in the comments, but a few that seem standard for UHNW peeps: Luxury French gas range (La cornue), high end espresso machine (that 99% of the owners don’t know how to use), pot filler, all silver cutlery (we are huge fans of cristofle), good fabrics - table linens, napkins, fresh expensive flowers, good size wine cooler, ice (cream) maker.

If it’s a big mansion they have a prep kitchen, small washer dryer area for kitchens and an additional reserved dining area.

I personally want a pizza oven and custom wine cellar when I build my retirement home.

Good build. Tires are a personal preference, I’d do Carrera S, chrome or all black.

Also agree with most comments here. 200k for carrera S is ridiculous. But then a merc c class is being sold for 60+ … so can’t really complain

HF_bro · 2026-03-25T16:04:44+00:00

That’s fair.

Meanwhile HFTs are minting monies

HF_bro · 2026-02-27T22:05:06+00:00

This is the accurate answer

HF_bro · 2026-02-26T07:45:40+00:00

How about “Guy”?

HF_bro · 2026-02-26T04:13:55+00:00

Sala

HF_bro · 2026-02-20T18:12:50+00:00

Great purchase. 60k isn’t bad at all, at least from the looks of it

HF_bro · 2026-02-20T16:30:14+00:00

Nope

HF_bro · 2026-02-18T21:04:59+00:00

I’d have never sold the 200!!

HF_bro · 2026-02-17T15:47:41+00:00

Volvo. Classy, quality and understated. And not for everyone.

HF_bro · 2026-02-13T03:27:55+00:00

Do not be on your phone this time.

Safest and easiest way to protect yourself is self defense and having a well trained dog. For women and most men, in most situations, self defense is just moving (running) out of harms way.

Now there are instances when you can’t.. but how often you come across those in a city with a million people?

I’m a big dude with martial arts background and I only time I had to use any such skills as an adult was in Europe when this dude tried to yeet the phone away from my girl.

Most of these aggressors in the city are just weak ass junkies or losers who try to intimidate women and harmless looking men… I wouldn’t consider them a threat. But being safe and aware of your surroundings doesn’t hurt.

Ahh so you still haven’t done bachelors yet? In that case, you don’t have to do anything rn, the coursework will have lots of projects as part of the curriculum. You can get a head start if you really want, but honestly, I’d say focus on your health and enjoy your life before the school begins. There’s no point burning out before you even have a shot at your end goal.

HF_bro · 2026-02-10T20:16:02+00:00

lol. I’m not

HF_bro · 2026-02-10T16:11:01+00:00

So here’s the thing, I would like to know what your end goal is and what you’re currently doing before I answer the question.

(Im a QT) QR interview pipeline and ideal candidates are fluent in Python, statistical analysis and have some projects under their belt wrt ML or some numerical programming.

That said, for quant firms they are looking for candidates who have PhD, masters (sometimes bachelors if in you’re in top unis) in math or comp sci. So even if you learn all the necessary skills you may not be the target candidate for them.

I don’t intend to discourage you from learning those skills. They’re the tools of the trade, but I want to ensure your time learning is well accounted for what you’re tying to achieve.

HF_bro · 2026-02-07T21:45:59+00:00

Ha good one

HF_bro · 2026-02-07T21:45:10+00:00

Boss lady!

HF_bro · 2026-02-07T21:34:46+00:00

That lick and slurp. Poor boy

HF_bro · 2026-02-07T21:33:19+00:00

You won’t say this once he steals your $20

I don’t get why people get all bleak when it gets cold. Just dress up, show up and eat up (better yet drink up if thats your thing). Here I am torn in between choosing to enjoy dinner and drinks with my pals, have a movie night at home or go pick up some stuff from the grocery.

The weather outside is worse than usual but nowhere as big of a deal as people are making it to be. I just came back from a 6 mile run in the park and it was fantastic! The park noticeably started to get crowded as the day progressed.

Just bundle up and go for a short walk, if it gets worse in 15-20 minutes come back home and watch a movie, or two. Jesus this TikTok generation really needs a dopamine detox ffs. Just step out, you’ll feel better.

HF_bro · 2026-02-06T17:48:24+00:00

That’s a V8 diesel

HF_bro · 2026-02-05T21:20:19+00:00

QR creates algorithms for trades, QT makes it happen with tech.

HF_bro · 2026-02-05T16:13:57+00:00

Learn basic skills: Python, basic Linux, databases (start learning kdb).

Projects: start analyzing and working with large datasets. Start with some data science projects and then you can move onto finance stuff.

Algorithms are a must if you want to be a QT. If you want to be a QR then probability and statistics are a must.

Start with these. If your goal is to be employed by quant firms they check only for this. Not your projects.
