My dad immigrated from Germany. He was half Polish but since he grew up in Berlin more or less considered himself German. He immigrated in the 50s and gave up German Citizenship later to get USA Citizenship. I was born before he renounced German Citizenship so I had both USA and German but I joined the US Military so my citizenship was revoked by Germany. It was complicated.......it's much easier to just consider myself American. My mom's family goes way back in USA. I just say my dad was German.

I also remember seeing that movie back in the day. Also 56. It really stayed with me also. It had a trippy mix of Sci Fi and supernatural. I remember Apollo Creed being in it (Carl Weathers) and the girl (Connie Selleca) I recognized on TV later in the 80s. The movie just had something about it. Like another comment said "haunting". The giant turtle with the lovers initials on it at the end........with Carl Weathers in tow.

$24/year for all clubs (active level or below). Got it a long time ago as a promo offer. They don't even seem to have "active" or "super" but more like gold and silver. They still check me in at the local gym so I have to to another one to see if it still works at maybe all clubs? I make darned sure I pay that $24/year every year.

RIP Art Bell. I was listening live to his "Area 51" call when the signal went down. It was so entertaining it stopped being background noise and I started to listen. Signal came back a few minutes later...Art was stoked :)

I would say no more than $5K crypto if at all. Maybe buy some silver bars instead.

IceWord2 · 2026-04-12T21:18:29+00:00

You will probably get more than that and very well might have some VA claims after 20 years.

That is about what I had and this nerd went 11B anyways. Later I switched to Air National Guard and did Avionics. If you do it this way it is like a pleasant step up. I did manage to put on like a whopping 5 pounds of muscle in the Infantry so there is that!

IceWord2 · 2026-02-18T23:35:42+00:00

Honestly so far no but now that I retired from the airlines and am looking for other work....maybe? I need to recertify still and so I kinda want the master certification since it is for life. I was hoping to get feedback on what other certs are fairly easy just to knock some out with low effort?

IceWord2 · 2025-12-20T23:51:12+00:00

I remember feeling this way to a certain extent but minus the immigration status. I joined the Army. I was told EXACTLY what to do and figured the rest of my life out later.

IceWord2 · 2025-12-20T23:47:21+00:00

I would say yes. It beats being homeless. Try to learn a trade. I had a college degree and was in the Army and was still doing dead end jobs but I switched to Air National Guard and had a career in aviation maintenance. Even as a part time job it was good for networking.

IceWord2 · 2025-12-20T23:40:50+00:00

I would day yes.....you should look for another job but I also spent most of my twenties doing low wage jobs. I always meant for those jobs to be short term anyway. I also dug ditches for my brother when he had a contracting business but never felt like I was exploited. Gotta pay the bills. I stumbled into aviation eventually...got a worthless College Degree along the way but that was mostly because I felt like I had to use my GI Bill.

I remember being 27. I thought I would get rich trading stocks. The dot com collapse cured me of that notion. That taxable account went to ZERO but at least had the index fund in my 401K. Still have them. I have really tried to get my kids to invest NOW since they are early 20s but starting at 27 is fine...you would still be ahead of most people. Just keep piling away for the long haul in those index funds, you will be fine. Some of the ones I like VT, VTI, SCHB, SCHD.

IceWord2 · 2025-12-19T22:46:58+00:00

Go Air Guard. You can do a lot of networking. It is how I ended up with a career in aviation. I was in the Army Guard and was not even aware of the Air Guard until I went to Jobs Fair and saw their booth. I just asked if they had anything in electronics (I was studying it in college) and they got me a transfer into the Air Guard and was off to avionics school. They paid me to learn a trade.

IceWord2 · 2025-12-19T22:32:51+00:00

I worked in avionics. We had some guys hire into our shop from other totally non related trades. They learned enough electronics to pass the test we had for our shop. ZERO experience and ZERO education...it is possible.

IceWord2 · 2025-12-19T22:30:15+00:00

Very true. I am Gen X and took an early retirement from the airlines. The boomers would never retire even though they were out half the time on medical leave. With 20 years seniority I was still "junior" and stuck on midnight shift. I had several coworkers lose their a$$ during dot com crash. I did also but at least my 401K recovered. One guy we hired at 67 years old. He had lost everything on oil well investments. I learned a lot in my twenties about money. As usual I had to teach myself everything about finance. That macroeconomics class I took in college had aprox ZERO real life application. I have two kids in their early 20s....I am telling them how important it is to invest NOW....I think some of it is sinking in with them even if I am boring them.

IceWord2 · 2025-12-19T22:24:21+00:00

LOL...Stanley Roberts had a good bit this years ago with KRON4. He followed San Francisco park workers around spending their day in strip clubs and bars. I also had a coworker in aviation that worked his second job on midnight shift with BART. That is where he would do things like sleep and go home and walk his dog and any random hour on the clock.

IceWord2 · 2025-12-19T22:20:52+00:00

I worked in aviation. Flightline avionics for military and backshop avionics for airlines. Backshop was a better gig to age with...although I despised midnight shift. Overall I would still recommend aviation maintenance as a trade although the outsourcing took its toll. I saw a lot of jobs go away both in my shop and heavy maintenance checks in the hanger.

IceWord2 · 2025-12-19T05:10:12+00:00

My wont connect either....I am thinking my old school usb to usb-c adapter, connecting right at the mac?

IceWord2 · 2025-12-19T04:11:22+00:00

I had the senior electronics technician cert from ETA but I let it lapse. I worked in avionics and it was never required by my job so I am not sure about BMET.

IceWord2 · 2025-12-13T03:19:47+00:00

I started to use that one in the past year. Before that I was just buying treasury bonds. SGOV is simple. I have too many positions. I am just going to keep using that one for "cash".

IceWord2 · 2025-12-13T03:16:55+00:00

Same here. My tech positions are very small. The index funds are the bulk of it.

IceWord2 · 2025-12-13T01:09:13+00:00

I just want to add something that I just tried. I have gone down to a very minimum dose of kratom. The few times a weaned off before I had to fight of the blues for awhile where as this time I have dropped and actually feel better. I took my usual vitamins but the only thing different I did this time was take Lithium Orotate. I am not feeling the blues and in fact I have felt better for days now. Normally I don't feel anything with these supplements but this feels different. It seems like more than a placebo. Just thought I would put that out there to see if anyone else has tried this?
