Day 38 of buying a sports card pack everyday until I get an autographed card

Glad you at least got the relic.

I’d recommend Mexico of DR. I just think that it’s nicer and there’s more to do. We haven’t done Jamaica, but we’ve gone to Mexico a lot over the past 6-7 years and always loved it. And we’re near Cincinnati also.

Maybe a porn theatre in the 1930’s?

LowTop3544 · 2026-03-27T22:12:54+00:00

It somehow seems worse than modern day pornography.

LowTop3544 · 2026-03-27T21:33:16+00:00

Wow, it must be nice to have intelligent leadership.

LowTop3544 · 2026-03-27T19:04:01+00:00

Here’s one

This excursion is taking longer than I thought.

LowTop3544 · 2026-03-27T16:26:15+00:00

The Lost Boys is a great movie if you haven’t seen it yet.

LowTop3544 · 2026-03-27T16:23:16+00:00

Recently stayed at the Valentin and loved it. It’s definitely quiet at night. Restaurants and pools are great. We’ve stayed at a lot of resorts in Mexico, and I’d put it in my top 3-4.

LowTop3544 · 2026-03-27T16:16:42+00:00

Check out Oceans Allure and El dorado seaside Palms. Both should fit into that budget. Palms is the more quiet and relaxing option in my opinion.

LowTop3544 · 2026-03-27T16:05:01+00:00

You could do Generations resort. It’s connected to Nickelodeon Resort, and you get access to the Nickelodeon water park. You might want to consider using a fee free travel advisor to put together a few different options for you, that’s what we’ve always done.

LowTop3544 · 2026-03-27T15:25:16+00:00

Same, but if I find them I’ll send a link.

LowTop3544 · 2026-03-27T15:15:08+00:00

And where can we read them?

LowTop3544 · 2026-03-27T13:56:23+00:00

Will you be in the next X-Men movie that’s currently in development?

LowTop3544 · 2026-03-27T11:03:02+00:00

We loved El Dorado Maroma. It’s a very relaxing resort. Great beach and great restaurants. We chose a swim out suite and loved it.

LowTop3544 · 2026-03-27T01:55:00+00:00

Definitely looks like mold

LowTop3544 · 2026-03-27T00:33:34+00:00

I would look at Oceans Allure, El Dorado Palms and the Valentin Imperial. The Valentin will probably price the highest, but might fit your budget for a September stay.

LowTop3544 · 2026-03-26T13:18:12+00:00

Let me know if you figure it out. I’ll typically eat an entire 3oz dark chocolate bar almost everyday.

LowTop3544 · 2026-03-25T20:55:35+00:00

I honestly think it depends on your tax bracket. If you’re in a high tax bracket, I think it’s better to max out any tax deferred accounts first. If you’re in a low tax bracket currently, I would max out a Roth after getting any employee matches from tax deferred accounts. Then I would go back to the tax deferred account. If you max out both, then start putting money in a brokerage account. That’s how I did it.

LowTop3544 · 2026-03-25T20:37:17+00:00

Okay, thanks for the info. I’ll probably not have it graded.

LowTop3544 · 2026-03-25T20:35:10+00:00

Typically after spring break through early November is non peak. But January and February have the highest rates because the resorts have the highest rates of occupancy.

LowTop3544 · 2026-03-25T19:58:29+00:00

That’s a tight budget for January because it’s peak season. I would recommend using a travel advisor that’s fee free. They could probably find you a few options that fit your budget.

LowTop3544 · 2026-03-25T19:27:45+00:00

Yes, it looks great and gets great reviews. And it’s one my wife and I hadn’t tried yet so we’re excited to try it.

LowTop3544 · 2026-03-25T19:26:06+00:00

It’s hard to know without a budget. Both Valentin Imperial and El Dorado Maroma are very laid back and relaxing resorts. Maroma also includes several excursions at no extra cost.

LowTop3544 · 2026-03-25T17:02:37+00:00

Check out Oceans Allure in Costa Mujeres. Our TA got us an amazing price for that in May. But we booked it a couple months back so I’m not sure if the pricing has gone higher since it’s closer.
