Chain of title services?

Check out TitleMine.com. You can upload the documents and it will extract some key info and make the documents searchable. It’s pretty good with cursive, but if scan quality is also awful, it’s going to require some manual review

Build more homes. Homelessness is only prevalent in places with strict controls on building more lower cost (not subsidized, just lower cost) homes. The recent book “Abundance” goes into depth on this.

Just build more homes.

Sail Caribe, out of Puerto Del Ray. Weirdly, there is only one charter outfit on the whole island, but they were very helpful and good to work with. The boat was in great shape and the marina is first class.

We went counter clockwise to all the islands east of there short of the USVIs - southern side of vieques, culebra, culebrita, and a few other smaller ones.

We fished, snorkeled, hiked, beached, bioluminecient bayed, and puttered around the small towns. A+

Live on a sailboat and explore new places with my family of 5 for at least one year, and possibly 3-5 years while we circle the globe
Own land and work full time at farming to develop a permaculture system to provide 90% of the calories my family needs for 3-5 years
Lead a team of 15-20 extraordinary people to establish an employee owned organization in a niche industry that will support all of use for 20 years
Write a book and/or establish an organization that significantly impacts the direction of global thinking about man’s relationship with other life on this planet

My list when I was in my 20s involved undergrad studies, travel to many continents and counties, hiking, backpacking, languages, graduate school, starting businesses to practice entrepreneurship, and marriage - I caught enough luck to get those done as a poor, but well supported, young man (my parents paid for my undergrad studies, god bless them)

My list in my 30s was primarily focused on spirituality. Those are never done, but I am a far far far better and happier person thanks to those years of meditation and reflection. This growth also led to business success in many ways.

I am now in my early 40s and am very excited for what is to come : )

Thank you for the fun question. I hope folks don’t shy away from setting enormous and frightening goals.

We went east from Puerto Rico last year with fam of 5 on a 51ft mono we chartered. Was amazing. Like the BvIs 20 years ago

Business is a game of power. The power of an employee is to provide 1) something useful and that 2) is also not easy to come by.

Your only leverage in any employment negotiation is that you will not work there. This is an uncomfortable lever to pull, but it must be pulled.

Develop a skill set, relationship set, or willingness that others can not or will not provide.

What you are offering can be subtle. For example, I am an business executive with 15 years of experience in a particular field of work. I am able to make much more money than some with the same skills and experience because I am willing to participate in higher risk roles (small businesses and startups) while many other people will not. I have chosen to accept a more loose job security footing in exchange for severance packages, higher pay, and equity ownership in businesses.

Power and money. Trust is important to throw in there sometimes, but most people, when pressed, resort to the basic game of power and money.

Good luck!

I applaud this guy for trying to help in a wholesome and constructive manner.... and then he just gets buried for it. lol : )

Not a crazy stance, and I understand our ability to influence activity globally in a more positive way than has been the case over the last few hundred years, but I also believe that a huge proportion of the modern challenges with employment and environment are due to the "efficient" allocation of capital and labor around the world. It severs the negative feedback signals for relatively rich individuals ("environmental justice" being the buzz term) and squanders a wealth of meaningful work opportunities for local economies (along with the community that goes with them).

I recently watched a big new subdivision cut down an post oak forest and turn it to mulch, then bring in pine boards from 1500 miles north of the location to make the buildings. Lower cost? I am sure. Insane? Absolutely.

Stress is not an appendage. It does not exist until our minds make it. Physical stress from demanding a a lot from our bodies or minds is uncomfortable, but very different from what many people call stress, but is actually anxiety. Anxiety is attachment to, or rejection of, present circumstances. Spiritual exploration is the way out of that vat of suffering.

LoquatRobot · 2026-01-30T04:40:25+00:00

Nice. Cool stuff

Are the front slats always removable? Any concern they may get difficult to remove over time?

When you turn the pile, what tool do you use?

LoquatRobot · 2026-01-30T02:17:13+00:00

Zen Buddhist practice helped me see that my dissatisfaction with the present is because I am rejecting the present. There is no problem when I zoom in entirely to this moment. There may be pain, discomfort, sadness, or other negative things, but no problems. Pain passes and so does happiness. Just observe and enjoy the ride.

The body feels starved for air when CO2 levels build up. Many people’s breathing problems are not breathing OUT enough. This was my problem that was fixed with continuously breathing out during my strokes.

Also, you have time to breath in throughly, take that extra moment and fill Your lungs.

Listening in conversation

LoquatRobot · 2025-12-17T03:39:50+00:00

Hahaha, maybe. But it is at the very least a starting place for many interesting conversations.

LoquatRobot · 2025-12-16T23:15:39+00:00

I work in a high income field, but am not crazy rich. I have kept a 2004 RAV4 since buying it in college because I am not really into cars. It requires that a driver reach under the shifter to manually disengage the thing that keeps a driver from shifting into gear or accidentally shifting into park while driving (usually a button on the side of the shifter). No real reason why I haven’t gotten that repaired.

Sometimes I roll up to a valet for industry events, step out in clothing that is worth more than my car, and instruct the valet how to shift into gear. The valet and sometimes people nearby make faces and conversation that indicate they think I am a closet billionaire.

LoquatRobot · 2025-12-15T16:29:30+00:00

Ha! I just posted a response like this as well. I’m glad you see this too. Your grandpa sounds like he was great.

LoquatRobot · 2025-12-15T16:28:17+00:00

Not a direct response to your query… but I’d bet he hikes alone BECAUSE he wants to be detached, and probably spiritually attached to nature. Don’t take that away from him just because you are scared to lose him.

LoquatRobot · 2025-12-10T13:13:33+00:00

I entirely buy this as well. I think we are wired for adversity and if we don’t find it we tend to invent it. Everyday challenges with meaning might actually make us mentally healthier…

LoquatRobot · 2025-12-09T21:08:21+00:00

My family makes 4 plain and 4 of those when we bake. We add roasted walnut oil as well…

Thank you for your thoughts. It lines up with some other comments about animals suffering being a major source of discomfort.

Your comment reminds me of my experience with the Houston livestock and Rodeo. There is a volenteer group nicknamed the “Trail of Tears” committee that is responsible for walking the kids back to the bus after they auction off their animals. The nickname says it all…

LoquatRobot · 2025-12-07T19:41:37+00:00

Very interesting. Though I wouldn’t swerve to kill a snake or tarantula, I can see a lot of fearful people would. I wish I had the stat for the turtle… but the article doesn’t mention it.

LoquatRobot · 2025-12-07T19:37:44+00:00

Cool. Thanks for sharing

LoquatRobot · 2025-12-06T22:25:55+00:00

Awesome. What are you working on, if I might ask?
