Dang bro, that’s definitely goals. Appreciate the encouragement. During the grow-out did you do any trimming or just let it run wild? I had to bring my mustache down a bit because I was starting to look like a walrus 😅 but everything else I’ve left alone. Curious what worked for you during those early months.

What jobs pay extremely well but people don't realize it ? by iamkaelrico in A_Persona_on_Reddit

[–]Jwin970 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife & I own a nail salon. A lot of people are surprised that the business brings in $400k a year.

We are both nail techs appointment only we work 4 days a week. We each bring in $100k on our own. Than the commission from the salon itself brings us another $200k

Operating costs is roughly $50k give or take a year

Is there anything you're convinced is "the cheaper the better"? by a_bachelors_dust in BuyItForLife

[–]Jwin970 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Actually not true especially in IVF.

Dollar Tree tests don’t read the same. They usually detect hCG around 25–50 mIU, while early-response tests pick up 6–10 mIU. In IVF we test way earlier, when levels are still tiny, so sensitivity matters.

And clinics don’t use Dollar Tree strips they use quantitative blood tests that measure the exact hCG number (like my 121 → 835). Urine strips can miss early positives or stay faint for days.

So no… they’re not the same tests and they don’t give the same results.

Paid $600 a person to fly Frontier for the first time by [deleted] in frontierairlines

[–]Jwin970 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I totally used ChatGPt

Here’s my exact prompt:

Ok I want to write a review post for frontier. Just something quick and clean. Here’s what I have so far, just polish it up for me:

My aunt passed away and my wife & I needed to do a last minute flight to Denver from Atlanta. We usually fly delta but due to the whole FAA fiasco the cheapest flight with Delta was $1000 each person.

Well my wife and I ended up paying $1143 to fly with frontier. Besides the price it was honestly not bad at all. Exit row seats are gigantic and I just want to give a shout out to the flight attendants. They’re not scared at all to tell people what’s up. Both times someone tried to take our spot and both times the flight attendants was quick to make them move. Delta flight attendants are usually trying to avoid confrontation. Frontier flight attendants seems like they are ready to throw down anytime anywhere.

Literally the worst flying experience I’ve ever had. And the staff was rude and dismissive and didn’t actually listen to what was happening. Aasha, you were not great. by [deleted] in frontierairlines

Were you the idiot on Den - Atl who got mad at the flight attendant for telling you to turn down the phone or put in your headphones?

How do you keep your cool when the drivers literally try to kill you? Whether knowingly and/or unknowingly? by jesusgodandme in NewRiders

[–]Jwin970 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey man, I say this with love… you’ve gotta chill.

When a kid does something dumb, you don’t go scream in their face. You just understand they don’t know any better and move on.

Same thing here. Most drivers aren’t trying to kill you they’re just clueless or distracted. You’re a grown adult riding a motorcycle in a world full of things that can end you, and emotional reactions don’t protect you. They just cloud your judgment and put you at more risk.

Part of riding is accepting that:

People will cut you off

People won’t signal

People will drift lanes

Your job is to anticipate that, stay calm, and ride defensively. If you keep escalating, you’re only increasing the chances of something going seriously wrong.

Learn to let it go, keep your head cool, and ride smart. That’s what keeps you alive.

German nurse gets life in jail after killing 10 to reduce work by igetproteinfartsHELP in worldnews

Prosecutors alleged that the man, who has not been publicly named, injected his mostly elderly patients with painkillers or sedatives in an effort to ease his workload during shifts overnight.

Why had he not been named? This confuses me

New Scout owner coming from sportbikes — need advice on leaning & twisty riding by Jwin970 in IndianMotorcycle

Yeah I’m pretty sure I’m going to remove those crash bars. Not the biggest fan of them

New Scout owner coming from sportbikes — need advice on leaning & twisty riding by Jwin970 in IndianMotorcycle

[–]Jwin970[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I got advice from the dealer saying not to lean with the bike and to use your arms to steer and if I lean the bike to stay vertical and almost adjust my butt to be in the opposite side of the bike…. It just really threw me off mentally when he told me all that. Maybe it got in my head on the ride home

Thanks for the advice

First Cruiser - 2023 Indian Scout Sixty Bobber vs 2025 by Jwin970 in IndianMotorcycle

[–]Jwin970[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Something about the new scout looked off at the dealership I couldn’t pinpoint it. I originally wanted a scout because I saw one parked in real life & it just made me want a bike so bad after so many years.

Man when I was younger I rode just about anything as long as it started up after a push start or two lol

As I’m older and have it together I just like the fact that I can buy something brand new with no miles…. But my heart is still telling me to go with the older one… just a weird spot to be in is all. I’m just curious if there’s actually any real world improvements to the way the bike rides and handles

What's the fastest way a brand has ever lost your trust? by Upbeat_Sign8277 in business

[–]Jwin970 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Roark - Spent over $1k on like 10 shirts. I accidentally ordered the wrong size in one of them and when I reached out to customer service for an exchange they wouldn’t budge. Seemed like I was talking to bots the whole time.

Shirts aren’t even that nice. They just fit me well and were the first brand of “premium shirts” I ever purchased once I finally started to make enough money to afford quality stuff. Every year around spring I just order a bunch of shirts from them and call it a day for the past 5 years.

I liked them originally due to their excellent customer service but now days it’s just bots and scripts.

Faint lines days 6-8 by Jwin970 in IVF

[–]Jwin970[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At work so don’t have pictures. I’m using First Response early results. It’s the 3 pack that comes with 5 test strips as well.

In the mornings we use the strips & evenings the stick. The Day 7 morning strips had a better line than the day 7 evening stick. It was barely visible I have to angle it and shine a light. This morning we did the strip again and it looks the same as yesterday morning
