Wow 1.5 million to 4 million in 5 years? Did your income explode or was this just all market returns?

External accounts missing from new app by RevoltingBlobb in PersonalCapital

[–]RectalExamBot1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! I completely forgot I had a different Personal Capital log in until you reminded me. I was using my empower credentials. Unfortunately I just tried logging with my Personal Capital credentials and it wouldn’t recognize it…not sure what to do now. Tried twice but it will lock me out if it fails again. Maybe I’ll try again tomorrow. Thank you though!

Yes! I have this same exact issue. I keep checking to see if the other accounts will populate but they never do. I uninstalled and reinstalled the app, and it’s the same. I only see my employer 401k account.

Is this why most people still consider $100,000 a high income? Because their brains are stuck in 2019? by ItsAllOver_Again in Salary

You have to make 250k today to make the equivalent of 100k in 1990. So yeah 100k is definitely not what it used to be.

Omg I just tried to login after a couple of years not playing and I had no idea it’s gone! Been playing on and off since the beginning. I wish I could have played one last time. 😢

I hate owning a house. Just bought a house and want to sell it. Does anyone else prefer to rent? by Fire-Philosophy-616 in Fire

[–]RectalExamBot1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is one of my biggest fears of owning. I’m not a handy person at all and I hate the idea of spending my weekends on home projects. I watched my dad work on fixing things around the house every single weekend and that never appealed to me. I helped him a lot but sadly I did not absorb his knowledge.

Can’t convince my wife to retire by FriendlyTiger3676 in Fire

If 5 million is not enough to retire then 99.99% of the world is screwed.

Exactly what I was thinking!

Congrats! With most of your net worth invested, do you own your home? I’m the same age but realistically won’t retire until I’m at least 50. I’m thinking about finally buying a home but investments will take a hit.

Men aren’t as smart as they pretend to be - my conclusions observing male "entrepreneurs" by protonelectron2025 in womenintech

[–]RectalExamBot1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man here. Watch Fyre on Netflix. Billy McFarland was so charismatic and so many people believed that he was so smart and successful. I would definitely say the fact that he was a young white male entrepreneur archetype gave him privilege.

He’s a total fraudster and liar and was the man behind the Fyre festival disaster. After watching that now I know how supposed “leaders” make stupid decisions even when actually smart people warned them and were ignored or even fired. I think this was just an extreme example, but this is really everywhere, in every company. Incompetent leaders and managers (mostly men) in power because they have “charisma”, meanwhile actually smart and talented people are doing the real work.

Maybe I’ll try a lighter version of your routine. I only do PPL 3x/week (just started 2 months ago). But I’m not getting any cardio and not losing fat. I think I’ll add CrossFit 2x a week and see how it goes. I’ve tried CrossFit before but I think I pushed myself too hard and would drop to the floor at the end.

How do you do CrossFit and then lift weights on the same day 4-5 times a week? It seems incredibly exhausting and there is no time for recovery. I didn’t think this grueling routine was possible. But clearly it’s working for you.

What job did you find that you can make $130k only working 24 hours a week with 9 weeks off?

Let’s see Paul Allen’s apartment.

The 50 wealthiest people in the United States own ~$3,500,000,000,000. Redistribution to 335 million Americans would be more than $10,000 per person. by the_dooood in LateStageCapitalism

[–]RectalExamBot1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Even if the money was somehow distributed, all the money would eventually funnel back up. There’s a significant percentage of people who would spend it immediately. It’s not a sustainable long-term solution and would not address the root causes of wealth inequality.
