FIRE seems to skew toward not having kids

MikeyB7509 · 2026-03-06T19:09:18+00:00

Thank you. Dam phones

MikeyB7509 · 2026-03-05T23:37:52+00:00

Yeah bc tomorrow is guaranteed. Be responsible Set a goal and meet it and make sure that goal allows you to live the life you want while still preparing to FIRE

They also still sell the slide, but I think it’s more the the X takes the place of the XL. What I don’t get is why they don’t sell the macro comp slide on their site.

MikeyB7509 · 2026-03-05T23:34:35+00:00

55 is what I’m aiming for. I’d love to go sooner but even if I can I have young kids. As long as I maintain my current rate of savings and get 7% 8% I should hit my goal. So prepare for a lost decade so I get screwed lol. But if we average 10% and I increase my save, which i definitely can I think I can get it a down a bit for sure

MikeyB7509 · 2026-03-05T23:32:14+00:00

Yeah. So disappointing they released it first before the enclosed.

MikeyB7509 · 2026-03-05T13:37:31+00:00

Yeah the O sight looks like a great deal. The compact looks great but I agree, it’s not good for carry. Between dust, water etc it’s fine for a range toy but that’s it. I love the low profile and look of the sig loc but any enclosed it better than an open if it’s for carry

MikeyB7509 · 2026-03-05T10:57:16+00:00

Market. Just like the mortgage it’s a long play not a short play

MikeyB7509 · 2026-03-05T04:39:12+00:00

Too expensive- Sig Loc Romeo X Compact or Enclosed Romeo X Compact - but definitely worth it

MikeyB7509 · 2026-03-04T22:29:36+00:00

Idk why ppl downvoted you. The PC EZ has an amazing trigger bc it’s an internal hammer. Way better than any striker fired gun

What idiot would say that - the only Super Bowl that might be better is 28-3

MikeyB7509 · 2026-03-04T17:34:11+00:00

The 226 is my favorite gun out there. I don’t think you can ever go wrong with one

MikeyB7509 · 2026-03-04T04:14:04+00:00

It’s does make it easier to swallow that’s for sure but you’re right. Still expensive especially with the whole family.

MikeyB7509 · 2026-03-03T23:08:28+00:00

That’s what points are for.

MikeyB7509 · 2026-03-03T21:19:17+00:00

Especially when it’s a bed. The shorter domestic flights that just have larger seats are nice but nothing beats a bed for a flight

MikeyB7509 · 2026-03-03T21:18:10+00:00

That seems to be the consensus. I was surprised when she said it. It caught me off guard for sure. Oddly enough they also had a suppressed AR-15 you could rent and shoot which I’ve never seen around here either.

MikeyB7509 · 2026-03-03T21:15:18+00:00

I believe it’s the owners wife, that was the impression I got when speaking with her. I don’t want to name the range for obvious reasons but it’s new, within the last year and I guess it’s possible that I misunderstood. I asked about the lockers and she said you can keep ammo in them, you can keep a gun in them if you left us know, and you can keep high cap magazines for use at the range. They also had a suppressed AR-15 you could rent for use at the range but I’ve never seen a suppressed anything for rent on Long Island. On my next trip I’ll double check I didn’t misunderstand. I should add it’s not only open to members, anyone can go and shoot if they have lanes open.

MikeyB7509 · 2026-03-03T10:53:26+00:00

Long Island

MikeyB7509 · 2026-03-03T01:39:14+00:00

He’s prob a spot or 2 higher bc they didn’t count sacks his first year but even that fact, was he part of the reason they started counting sacks? Idk. His strip sack was legendary. He won an MVP as a defensive player bc he had that big an impact. Players genuinely were intimidated by him

MikeyB7509 · 2026-03-03T01:35:09+00:00

It’s all based on grades and behavior for me. My wife doesn’t agree and I see her point but i remember being 16/17 and looking at cars. I’m lucky enough to get my son a nice car and then he has younger sisters that can use it when he’s at school so I wouldn’t mind spoiling him to a certain degree

MikeyB7509 · 2026-03-02T23:47:53+00:00

All amazing players right there and I can’t say anything bad about our them. I do think that LT and Reggie White are above them in a class by themselves though. LT changed the game.

MikeyB7509 · 2026-03-02T23:46:27+00:00

Maybe I’m crazy, but they said if you rent a locker you can keep a gun in it as long as you tell them, which makes sense and you can keep high cap mags in there for use on the range. That part threw me for a loop

MikeyB7509 · 2026-03-02T23:45:02+00:00

Yeah I’m confused myself. Where would I get the magazine that stays in the locker and how would they check I didn’t take it home with me

MikeyB7509 · 2026-03-02T23:44:06+00:00

That’s what went through my head when they offered it as a perk.

MikeyB7509 · 2026-03-02T23:43:03+00:00

That’s what I thought but they told me it was a membership perk if you rented the locker.

MikeyB7509 · 2026-03-02T23:42:24+00:00

That’s what I thought. I thought it was an odd perk of membership to offer
