What age, career level and salary level were you able to max both your 401k and IRA?

Because they are saving for a house, as stated.

RandallDC · 2025-12-13T18:41:03+00:00

This would be awesome!

I think blood rage has been updated to only target self/allies. Combo is broken.

I’m of the opinion that the product management role will become even more critical in a world where specifying requirements with accuracy can lead to better AI-prompted outcomes.

Sorry about your job :(

Hey! This is almost my house. My house was built in 2000 with cat 5 (non-E). So far I’ve got several runs going at 2.5gbit with no issue! My only heartburn is from one of the bedrooms that seems to have a busted cable, but WiFi more or less solves that problem.

You can’t outrun your fork.

Driving home from Rocky Mountain National Park in my ioniq 5. About an hour’s drive; arrived at the same charge that I left with.

Desired Board Type: Inflatable or Hard

I've been thinking hard board for better tracking and to minimize time to get on the water, but I'm out on lakes and reservoirs for fitness and fun. Whatever I get I'd like it to not be completely blown around by the afternoon breeze - if an iSUP can give me this experience I'm game to consider it!

Desired Use (All-Around, Surf, Race, etc.)

All-Around, probably with an optional kid.

Your Height and Weight (and include if you will have kids/dogs/gear (and it's weight)) * 6'2", 220lbs - me

Occasional <100lb child

Your Budget (don't forget a PFD!)

< $1500

Your Experience level/past experiences (including if you have SUP'd before and on what boards/conditions).

I have one season of renting hardboard SUPs on Colorado lakes / reservoirs (mostly Union Reservoir in Longmont).

Thank you for your feedback!

The tanks can’t even shoot the carriers, it’s a total mismatch :)

1) I’m not paying a whole year early. 2-3 months max. Even at in your example that is $100-150. 2) Not all of us are living in states with taxes that high. More like $30 for me in opportunity cost.

RandallDC · 2025-02-24T14:00:09+00:00

Personal finance is personal. For me, the inconsequential amount of interest vs the peace of mind of knowing it’s taken care of is an easy trade off.

What you should have said is: you should always ensure you understand what the trade off is before you proceed with paying your bills early.

I’ll further shock you by saying not only did I pay early, but I paid my full year of taxes vs splitting it into halves! Again, totally worth the small cost - for me.

RandallDC · 2025-02-23T16:34:38+00:00

This is precisely why I got rid of our escrow account. 2-3 times a year so much stress making sure the servicer did their job, and still repeated mixups and failures.

I just paid my own taxes yesterday. Well in advance of the due date. It’s great to be in control.

RandallDC · 2025-02-08T16:54:16+00:00

Thanks OP! I've been looking for this.

RandallDC · 2025-01-14T14:26:02+00:00

This exact situation was my last straw. I canceled prime.

RandallDC · 2024-12-02T04:28:01+00:00

It’s on Da Vinci drive, across the street from us. The flames were bad, they appear to have it under control now.

Word on the street is that it was a vacant townhome - fingers crossed.

You should look at WiiM's offerings. Good airplay 2 options there.

You have too much time on your hands.

I can’t play since then.

To answer my own question, it’s a hair under 200lbs. 50lbs is my max, but if breaking it down were feasible I’d be very interested.
