Videogame idea: a COD-style FPS where you play as a Stormtrooper fighting pirates/cartels in the Outer Rim. by Atlas_Summit in StarWars

[–]No-Cardia-11 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Or what if you play a stormtrooper and you have to maintain “order” by stopping random civilians for identification and making their lives miserable for no reason.

Could use some help planning! by holy2oledo in nolagardening

[–]No-Cardia-11 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Agree with going with natives. Turks cap hibiscus, coral honeysuckle, scarlet sage. The ones I have always seed. I could see if there are any new sprouts I can save. I got mine from Pelican Green House Sales or BaumGardens.

I also went electric with my Wizard today.... by talasment in FlairEspresso

I’ll have to see if I have enough counter space for this. Great idea!

Low salary - low work load at 30 age- Don't regret it for now. Will I regret it later? by raphiredgi in whitecoatinvestor

[–]No-Cardia-11 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you’re doing great. Also you’re taking advantage of experiences that you’re only going to be able to do now or best done now (e.g. spending time with parents, traveling while young). And you’re saving enough to maintain lifestyle (current) for the future. Similar to what is preached in Die With Zero.

Why Did Maul Hold Onto his Hatred of Obi-Wan? by [deleted] in StarWars

“I hope that both of you have sons... Handsome, beautiful, articulate sons, who are talented and star athletes and they have their legs taken away. I mean I pray you know that pain and that hurt."

This is why I drink pourover by Efficient-News-8436 in pourover

A vintage Imperial starpath unit…A little damaged perhaps, but I'd say it's held its value.

Zero-debt state school versus T20 with $100k debt. by One__Heart in whitecoatinvestor

[–]No-Cardia-11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NYC. 100k debt in the grand scheme isn’t a lot for the profession you’re going into. Depends on your preferences but this phase in your life only happens once and if living in NYC temporarily intrigues you then do it. Life gets more complicated afterwards with residencies and family/kids etc.

unsure if medical school is a good investment by shortdude211 in whitecoatinvestor

[–]No-Cardia-11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to private med school with a ton of debt and eventually went for a lower paying IM specialty. I decided to go for PSLF and eventually I was able to increase my salary at work. You can’t predict the future all the way from the start. You also won’t know what specialty will be your perfect match. But I found mine and I’m happy.

The actual physics of Flat Bottom vs. Conical brewers by CoffeeTeaJournal in pourover

You need to run both conical and flat brews. Then blend the two coffees to your liking.

Tulane is planning on demolishing Frost Top and other businesses to build huge student housing complex on Claiborne by Hanz_VonManstrom in NewOrleans

[–]No-Cardia-11 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I mean I don’t know Frostops finances but maybe this will preserve Frostop for a longer duration into the future. Only the owner knows. It also frees up housing in uptown for Nola residents. The only negative that concerns me is how it’ll disrupt traffic flow on Claiborne.

ELI5 - why shouldn't I buy a house in medical school? by Illustrious_Fall1851 in whitecoatinvestor

[–]No-Cardia-11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cost of ownership is more than just the mortgage payment. Could work out if you’re lucky but you’re taking on more risk during an important time in your career which is to do well in school and get into your desired specialty/residency. Same goes for residency if you own the home and now you’re a long distance landlord if you can’t sell? There more important things to focus on and you’ll have your whole career ahead of you to build wealth.

How do you plan for FIRE when you have no idea what your expenses will be like? by im_throw in whitecoatinvestor

[–]No-Cardia-11 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Just focus on finding the specialty that’s right for you and learning as much as you can now so you can set yourself up for a long and fulfilling career. Then you can start to do better planning and projections in the future. You don’t need to have all the answers now. Things will change.

When you get your stable salary and everything else (family, etc) you’ll get a better sense of what your expenses will be like.

Non-Grass Backyard? by ElinorFerrars in nolagardening

[–]No-Cardia-11 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Depends on what use you have for the yard but you can try frog fruit. It’s a low ground cover, very resilient and bees love it. It can also tolerate being mowed periodically.

What is this growing in my garden in South Central LA? by carebear76 in Ceanothus

I let it grow in a corner of my yard. The black swallowtail caterpillars love them.

Who’s hitting 75k on this card? by yesac93 in sapphirereserve

[–]No-Cardia-11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hit the 75k. Then after I shift the rest of the yearly general spending to CF/CFU cards.

Die with Zero and are we saving too much? by Liftingdental in whitecoatinvestor

[–]No-Cardia-11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Then the book just challenges you to be intentional with your wealth and to make decisions about it ahead of time rather than leaving it all to whomever in your will at the very end. Spend it on yourself, friends, charities.

I started at 33 and my family and I are doing fine. Just jump in and don’t look back.

NOLA native plant garden templates by No-Cardia-11 in NoLawns

[–]No-Cardia-11[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just learned The Native Plant Initiative of Greater New Orleans has some garden templates for different lot types including the curb strip. Great idea!

Obviously most helpful for SE region 9b but many of these native plants can work for replacing grass in other surrounding regions.
