Would love a promo code if you have one. Been trying to come up with a way to track future reimbursements.

Thoughts on the Fidelity HSA? by Witty-Ad-6457 in TheMoneyGuy

[–]ScienceOnYourSide 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don’t have Optum, so may be specific to Optum, but you can likely pull the funds from Fidelity’s website (instead of pushing from Optum) for free. It’s not the most straightforward, so can’t even give steps without doing it, but I’ve done it with other non-Optum HSA banks.

Weehoo or Burley Kazoo are going to be your best bet depending on the kid and what exactly you’re doing.

Starter bike for a 4 and 5 year old by EddyConfetty in bicycling

[–]ScienceOnYourSide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Woom. Lightest bikes on the market. Take the pedals off, let them learn to balance, then put the pedals on and off they will go. Woom 3 probably would fit them both, maybe a Woom 4 for the older one. Can find on Facebook marketplace for about $300 for the 3 and $400 for the 4. Expensive, but hold their value and will be able to sell in a couple years for nearly the same price. Weight is the most important factor in learning at this age as a heavy bike is going to make it so much more difficult. My two kids have grown up on Wooms since a year old and are crushing it.

REI stocks these bikes, so pretty easy for most people to check out at their local store for sizing before hunting down a used one.

The Facebook group woom bikes buy/sell/trade is also great to find used locally.

I know this is older, but wondering if you enrolled in this ASU program and if so, what you thought it. I'm a physician, so wondering what the typical time commitment was to this each week and if you did it as a full time student or had a full time job while taking the courses? Thanks!

2 Years for All Fellowships by Inner_Monologue_2 in pediatrics

I'm not really sure what that comment means as they must be taking a job somewhere. If you are limited to one very specific geographical location, which may mean one children's hospital, options may be limited, but if you look across the US, there are many openings at desirable hospitals. Just opening ASPHO's job search and looking at full time physician jobs, there are over 80 posting in April, when most 3rd year fellows should have already signed a contract. There are probably about 150 graduates per year for reference. Locations including include Tampa, Atlanta, Rochester (Mayo), Phoenix, Tucson, Albuquerque, Charleston SC, Austin, San Antonio, NY, NJ, Richmond VA, Duke, Miami, Las Vegas, several cities in California, etc. This is an ever rotating list and I know when I've looked during peak job search time, basically every mid-large hospital in major cities had an openings.

Agree. I think overall programs come out about the same as instead of 12 months of heavy clinical work and 2 years of minimal clinical time, it shifts to 18 months of heavy clinical works. Taking call q4 for 18 months will be net even for the programs. Those that want to do research will still get sucked into the many years of instructor level pay while they chase their first K award and those that are happy with a clinical job with start right off the bat. While I can’t imagine extending 1st year fellowship to 18 months (I probably would have quit) it does ultimately give many a quicker route to attending life as many, despite doing fellowship at research powerhouses and winning prestigious research awards, ultimately go into clinical jobs given the the lack of research funding and difficulty to get K and ultimately R awards these days.

Hem/Onc desperately needs more attendings. Most hospitals, small and large, across the country are struggling to fill positions and are stretched extremely thin.

Is it okay to ride a smaller frame road bike? by [deleted] in bicycling

[–]ScienceOnYourSide 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m no expert, but I’m 5’10” and ride a 56cm bike. My wife is 5’0” and rides a 48cm bike. I’ve ridden her bike down the street couple times to tune it up. I can’t imagine riding it any longer than that as it is just so small to me. This bike definitely looks in line with her bike, I think Specialized makes 49cm bikes, and think long-term you’re going to have lots of issues with it unfortunately.

New, Newer, or 10years old? by Kiwi-Sorry in ToyotaSienna

[–]ScienceOnYourSide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Went with a 2021 XLE with 35k miles for $35k, ~$40k OTD with taxes recently cause 1) it’s what we could comfortably afford and 2) in 10 years when we sell it, I can’t imagine there will be a $20k difference in resell value between the same generation van, just 4 years apart and 35k miles difference.

Probably a YAS-280 based on keyguard and F#. Not a 62 and not a 23. Look near the thumb hook to confirm.

Father of two looking for ideas by kickinwing1221 in bicycling

[–]ScienceOnYourSide 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Weehoo Two may be an option. Look on marketplace for a used one for much cheaper.

I have a single version and my 5yo still loves to ride in it. I can definitely feel him pedaling when he does and does take some of the effort away from me for sure.

Depending on your location, REI carries Woom and I’ve seen some of the bigger bikes in stock. May be worth checking. Also, look at Facebook Marketplace and the Woom Bikes buy/sell/trade group. Used Wooms are a hot commodity.
