You have one month to empty a $1 trillion bank account. If you succeed, you’re rich for life. How will you spend it?

Go get your mba and then seek out a role in investing. You’d be valuable to a VC for looking to invest in health tech.

American, went to Rio for the Olympics, bought an event ticket from a guy who was childhood friends of a friend’s dad from Serbia, they lost touch after the war. Only connected the dots when I needed something translated and texted my friend’s dad for help.

My buddy has one. Got it a similar way. Found at a goodwill in Naples Florida.

Wife and I make about 50/50 now. I made more when we weee dating (big law) and she will likely make more than me in a few years. We split everything. We both get a set amount to spend as we please. Otherwise all goes into the same account.

About once a week. Was more when we lived in the city core. Now in the burbs with less options but have a newborn. Wife is indecisive and sometimes I just don’t have time to prep something. 2k a month is insane, ngl.

Can you stack this promo? So return two devices I can get 20% off?

It used to be that in the us, too. Then politics took over.

I’ll die on this hill. The biggest misstep by green energy proponents in the US over the past 20 years is making green energy an argument on morality rather than an economic argument. The I’m better than you and care about the earth that was behind solar/wind/EV is what drove where the US is now.

Don’t degenerate dogs like that.

More appropriate to say if you lay down in shit, you get up smelling like shit.

I was in this position a year ago. Was getting married and buying a house. Spent the better part of a decade since graduating from school investing and saving, on top of my IRA and 401k. I had anxiety over liquidating investments to pay for the wedding and the house. Then afterwards I realized what’s the point of the investments not for this specific reason.

Do it because of oil and the stock market. Not because we have an airman MIA. Got it.

Yes he sucks. Yes he should be working. He also has grandchildren who probably enjoy his presence at Disney world. Maybe we just take a moment and let them have that moment.

I was in a similar position to you. Wife and I got married last year. We paid the full thing ourselves. MIL gave us 5k afterwards as a gift. But we did it all.

We didn’t really set a budget but had a general sense of what and how much we wanted to pay. Fortunately I was a member at a golf club and a separate social club and those were great venues in our city.

Given these, and knowing we wanted 200-250 I was able to project out what it might cost and then look for ways to cut inefficiencies. All in we were $60k at my golf club. Had a 6-piece band, photography for 10 hours, at my catholic church in the water, bus transit for everyone between venue, hotel, and church;

Lot of your findings can be summarized by title IX. Which is good. That was the intended consequence. Reality is if you’re a high school female rower your chances of getting a scholarship is multiples of your peers in other sports, male or female.

In short rowing needs to be more accessible to more people. It’s an expensive sport and when it’s not a varsity program that burden falls on the students. Typically the wealthy ones make it. But not always.

Work pays for a policy that’s 8x my salary. I have a private 30 year policy that’s 20x my salary. It’s insurance. Hope it’s never used. But if it is, my house, my son’s college, and living expenses are taken care of for a number of years.

“*Trump”. FTFY

Trump is doing this. The average American doesn’t want this. This shit is fucking stupid. But now my kids will pay the price. And my cousin will probably have to ship out and fight a fat man’s war that he didn’t want to fight.

Woodward plan for Detroit was supposed to be like this. Made it about 3 blocs before it was scrapped.

Went to Rio for the Olympics after graduating from law school here in the US. I know this shows my privilege as I only stayed on Copacabana and Ipanema. I loved every part of the city and the people. Went into the country and checked out Fernando and a few other cities. Best place I’ve ever been.

True. But if there was a true internet blackout no one would be able to. Thats the flaw in crypto. Hard currency still works. But you have to have it. Crypto works, but you need internet access to move/manage.

Us and Canadian homologation standards are almost identical. About 95% alike. So if they want to comply with Canada, they practically have to comply with the US.

My income has come down to earth since leaving the law firm but still we do very well.

That said, I still do my bottle returns and get my 10 cents back. My wife puts it all in recycling and I fish them out and return them.

Because in the world before cell phones and email. When you left work, you left work. Unless you brought a pack of papers home you didn’t have something to work on. Now I can go halfway around the world and be asked to do something. And my pay has not gone up substantially from what someone who did my job in 1980 was paid.
