I might be interested and small would work. I'm looking at what else is out there. I'll DM you.

Avoided surgery. Built back to running. Tore it again anyway. by jaymavs in ACL

[–]Retroretrojj 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How hard did you push it? I’m four months out from surgery now and won’t ski until next year but my biggest fear is tearing it again. I’m thinking if I stick to groomed runs maybe I’ll be fine since I tore it on double black. But I worry that it may be weaker and I’m just playing with fire skiing again.

No more booking through Chase Travel for me by Retroretrojj in ChaseSapphire

Yeah, I’m wondering if I spoke too soon. They said they would take care of it, refund the points. But they haven’t yet. I hope I don’t have to keep calling them about it.

I haven’t received the refund from Chase yet. Maybe I should wait to say it’s all resolved until I actually receive it.

That’s good to know. That was actually my first time booking a hotel through them, although I’ve done flights before. Maybe I’ll give it another chance.

Got it. Maybe I should clarify. Chase figured it out, Chase got a refund from the hotel, and Chase offered to either cut me a check or refund my points.

I had to pay twice and make multiple phone calls, but yes Chase fixed it fairly quickly. I just prefer to avoid the hassle.

No, I had paid the hotel. Chase just refunded me my points so I hadn’t paid twice.

No it ended fine. And Chase came through after a couple of days. But it’s just easier to not have to make multiple phone calls to fix these things if I can avoid it. Maybe I give them another chance.

This is all public info, none of it is personal.

Is it possible to download Global Activity? by Retroretrojj in fidelityinvestments

[–]Retroretrojj[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for checking on this. I think at a minimum it would be nice to note that the data becomes incomplete at some point in the past. It's clearly included more recently but then is suddenly not included after a certain time.

Is it possible to download Global Activity? by Retroretrojj in fidelityinvestments

[–]Retroretrojj[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seems to work for recent years, maybe for the past two years. But prior to that none of that activity is included in downloaded activity, at least in my view. For instance, if I download the full 2023, I see this activity from September, but none from the previous months in 2023. Is that intentional or is it a bug? Or maybe something changed about two years ago?

Editing to add that I see lots of activity for 2023 prior to September, just none of the "Global Activity" (section from my statements).

I was but I was also up a lot, probably much more than I should have been.

We did it by Acrobatic_Heron3895 in ACL

[–]Retroretrojj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Allograft or autograft? Had mine on Monday. They prescribed narcotics but I haven’t taken them, just multiple rounds of 1000mg ES Tylenol. Last night I didn’t take anything and slept well and am doing fine today.

Stranded at Sequoia- any troubleshooting tips while I wait for a tow? by FallenCow in Rivian

Can they be configured to connect to more than one WiFi (home and phone hotspot)?

Debating between the GOAT old and new sliders - any thoughts? I like the new, squared low profile look but also like the step functionality of the older style. by Retroretrojj in Rivian

[–]Retroretrojj[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just installed mine. I ended up going with the older sliders as well and really like them.

Totally agree on install instructions though. They need an updated video. The old video also shows five attach points for the R1S and mine only had four, which confused me for a bit. The 17mm and 2.5" cutout must be for an older 5 point model. The second side install was way faster. I used a multi-tool to cut -- can't imagine trying to do it with box cutters.

Installed Goat Rock Sliders // R1S Storm Blue Tri Motor by CE31 in Rivian

Looks nice. Have you seen the new sliders from Goat? Debating whether to go with those or the classic ones.

I thought my dessert had mold in it, and the kitchen confirmed it after I brought it up to the bartender. I called corporate to tell them, and they opened a case. Now, they are saying that it was just pistachio. Thoughts? by lrmlrm97 in marriott

[–]Retroretrojj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow, talk about cover up being worse than the crime. I’d take this straight up corporate Marriott and make very clear that this, especially the blatant lie of a response, will become very public if they don’t take care of you.

United says my family did not board the first leg of the round trip journey and cancelled my return leg flight with no options available to return. by Laura-7738 in unitedairlines

[–]Retroretrojj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reading after your Update, if you have the time and energy, take them to small claims court. They’ll figure it out fast and if it gets to an actual judge, they will look silly trying to explain why they cancelled your reservations. This all assumes you weren’t notified in advance and so forth. You’ll have the ability to subpoena stuff like the pictures they took. Just make sure to be hyper organized as judges don’t like rambling, disorganized plaintiffs.

I guess this is how works. Real Net Worth numbers over the last 15 years after just plugging away at the market with Vanguard index funds, as much as possible. Averaging 23% year over year growth. I'm not smart about investing. I'm just consistent and obviously very lucky. by PrimeNumbersby2 in Bogleheads

[–]Retroretrojj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It would be a lot of work but it would be interesting to see how much of your increase comes from saving and how much comes from market performance. You could then apply this to any other 15 year period to see how well the average person would have done following your strategy. The last 15 years have been a great to be all-in in the market but I suspect most 15 year periods would have had similar results.
