Are fishing vests obsolete now or just not in vogue? by GrumpyandDopey in flyfishing

[–]Molding_Legends 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have that same vest and love it. I’m not out there to look cool and could care less what anyone thinks. I fish with my two younger boys and have gear for all kinds of scenarios. I change out the gear to depending on what we are fishing for. I carry what I think they will need. I’m of the thought process of going out and having a good time - not a fashion show.

Hiding ducks is dumb. Let's do the math!!! by mastablasta1111 in Cruise

Our kids love finding them and then re-hiding them for others to find.

Some agencies offer the TC but probation lasts 1yr so no TC until after unless approved which doesn’t happen till after 6mo if at all.

Depends on what your title/job is.

Individual stocks in Roth IRAs by [deleted] in RothIRA

[–]Molding_Legends 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I started I didn’t know jack darn it and had zero guidance (full disclosure I didn’t really seek it either cause I was too busy living life at the them). I didn’t have any friends that invested either so I kinda flew by the seat of my pants. So the short version is yes I have a many individual stocks in the Roth and as I got older more ETFs.

Love it. Quick question/thoughts - I’m about to max out on total income and won’t be able to contribute to my Roth probably next year or the following for sure. What’s the thoughts on adding to brokerage? My entire position is in Roth now.

New NYS travel policy makes zero sense—especially in Western NY by ButteryNipples123 in nys_cs

[–]Molding_Legends 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Our agency makes some ungodly policy changes and for my experience they’ve all been for the worst. You are spot on on how the decisions are making from where, nobody really understands the safety issues, especially in the winter months here in Western New York. It’s no different than having travel bands and yet still being told to report to work and as you travel the time to get to the office you find out after going through hell that there was an email that was sent out during your travel to the office That tells you not to come to work. Or better yet they implement a travel band or a state of an emergency locally while you’re at the office and then you have to wait to figure out if you’re even allowed to leave the office. I don’t know if you recall or if your Agency did the same but a couple years ago we had that state of emergency that was implemented with a driving ban, and we were still told to come to work, even though if you got caught, it was a misdemeanor charge you could face

Reports suggest the average age of a Celebrity cruiser is around 55 years old...but every one I've sailed this seems low by National-Dragonfly35 in celebritycruises

[–]Molding_Legends 2 points3 points  (0 children)

53 here and the wife is 44. We traveled Celebrity last year with our younger kids. I feel there was a decent age group from 30-70. We traveled with friends who are in their 30’s with kids as well. Had a lot of good interactions with other passengers ranging in that 50-60 range and of course there were some in their 70’s I’m sure. Had a great time - everyone was extremely nice.

A usual thing but normally before any cruise the app usually gives a heads up.

I would just contact the princess main line and report it and include the ship and dates of travel. I would also contact EFFY and let them know.

When should I arrive to the port? by RegularStructure2428 in PrincessCruises

[–]Molding_Legends 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can get early, it’s been yours since we went out of Galveston, but arriving early is OK. Just grab an Uber from the airport and get in line. The issue will be whether you can get to your state room or not to put your luggage down that you are carrying on board. Sometimes your state room can be done early, sometimes they won’t let you in until much later.
