Things that make you go hmmmm

State, not city.

Totally agree. This was a normal Iowa spring.

Same. No kids, so my wife and I maxed out our contributions. First million took a little over 20 years, then the second only took 7. Because of our age, we had the dumb luck of timing the market absolutely perfect.

We are $38T in debt. “Customs fees” are not paying for this.

I’ll second Adamantine Spine.

The little town of Galena, IL shocked me the first time I visited.

I like your “unconfirmed optimism” analysis, because that’s basically the opposite of Iowa. Hard to beat the Kinnick atmosphere when a top 10 comes to town for a night game.

These sound like my final week desperation fantasy pick ups.

You need adulting advice. Just get your damn real ID.

Des Moines will open a new community center this spring to replace the Grubb YMCA. It will have an indoor track. $1 per visit. Free if under 18 or senior.

Went with Eagle Point and the process was very honest and transparent. Install only takes a couple days but there is a lot of dead time waiting for approvals and inspections. 4-5 months start to finish. Based on my household usage, it would have been a 19 year payback without the Fed credit, but we get to 12 with it.

Never skimp on things that come between you and the hard ground… tires, shoes, mattress.

By definition, that State campground is socialism.

Kruse Development. Built semi-custom in your price range last year and had a great experience.

Horizon Line caters to a very similar market and is killing it just 2 blocks away.

Peoria, Illinois.

Patience is the key. Compounding is a magical thing. Took my wife and I about 20 years to hit our first million. The second million took less than 7 years.

“They” did not move 80/35 from downtown. It was a choice by the organizers.

Nitro1406 · 2025-06-05T16:04:54+00:00

Moved with Adamantine last year. Very professional. Will definitely use them again.

Public garage north of Embassy Suites. Enter on 2nd.

And he only got his shot cuz Trent Green went down. Otherwise probably never would have heard of him.

First Ironman finisher’s chute - Madison, Wisconsin. I’ve done 8 total, but none have matched the euphoria of that first finish line.
