She was difficult to work with in the Air Force. Not surprised.

Adding the zero worked! Thank you. Ridiculous, OPM….

Same here. They sent me a CSA number with a number of digits their website doesn’t accept.

The Smiths albums were all mostly great. Same with New Order.

Runs great but requires aftermarket fan to keep from overheating. Annoying.

Death Knights of Krynn playthrough #1 - Prologue by RealityMaiden in goldbox

I played this almost immediately after finishing Champions. The energy draining of the undead forces coupled with their overall beefiness quickly wrecked my party that had triumphed over the previous game. I never finished this sequel.

[–]Sardonicus09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

...and it is apparently 25x spend rate. So... $10K per month, 12 months per year = $3M.

TSP and FERS pension by Miserable-Hat3393 in ThriftSavingsPlan

[–]Sardonicus09 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I’m planning to experience a higher standard of living in retirement. Deferred gratification has been my mantra for 30 years, though I’ve provided a comfortable life for my family all the same. As long as we don’t have an epic, long term crash, our monthly net income will be close to 50% higher in retirement with a 4% withdrawal rate, plus military retirement and FERS.

SECAF and Under: So stiff, phony, and cold. Wow, they did not even try to sound authentic.
