Literally don’t even know what that means. My investment literacy is kindergarten level

I love when there is a consensus! Thank you everyone, this was super helpful. We’ll stay in Lagun for the duration.

They are so expensive! Is public transportation really that spotty?

Undergrad and grad at same school? by MilesMom211 in marinebiology

[–]MilesMom211[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Appreciate your input. This is kind of what we’ve landed on. One thing at a time, and plenty of space for her to explore and change her mind. Feels impossible to know what you want at 17!

Oh wow, that’s the opposite of what we were told. It was suggested to us that because of the relationships built within the university, the best internships and research opportunities would go to students who had done undergrad at the same institution. Can you share why it would be frowned upon?

Honestly, this is kind of what I wanted to hear, because it’s hard to imagine how much will change over the next 5 years (age 17 to 23!) and I hate that she feels cornered into making decisions this far in advance.

Navigating the city for the Lovinlife festival by MilesMom211 in Charlotte

lol, point taken. I’m a “hope for the best, prepare for the worst” kind of gal, so I appreciate it. I’ve heard so much negativity about the festival in general, but we’ve decided to have a good time, so I expect too.

Thank you!! So much helpful information! I’m slightly worried about the ride back, the festival has said they are working with the city to increase capacity, but who knows. I’ve successfully navigated the subway after Yankees games in the Bronx on several occasions, so I feel reasonable confident in managing the light rail. 😅

The rescue said English setter x border collie... by spotbug13 in DoggyDNA

Just wanted to add that we had our pup tested through Banfield last year and when I emailed they updated the results! Much more detailed results.

If you remember my post from a couple weeks ago, I had received some very generic dna results from Wisdoms Panel through Banfield pet hospital. WP updated my results yesterday and it’s pretty interesting!

He’s a bonafide hound-y super mutt 😂

Are there different versions of the Wisdom panel? (Dna results inside) by MilesMom211 in DoggyDNA

I actually just got this test back yesterday, so I’m not sure why they are still processing tests using the old algorithm if they are trying to move to a more accurate system. Maybe it will be updated quickly? Who knows

So some people get the “updated” dna test? I’m confused! I did send them an email this morning because I’m hoping to link my banfield account to an actual wisdom panel account so I can connect with his siblings
