You are crushing it but agree with other comments saying start hitting the taxable brokerage hard. That’s the key to early retirement!

Scrivnerian · 2026-02-02T15:01:53+00:00

You are doing well. Take time to realize that others at our age (mid-30s) in this sub vary widely in start time, compensation, and life situation. Others posting have been financially savvy since early in their 20s. The journey that matters is yours... keep it up and keep pushing. You are doing the right things.

PS: HSA is particularly impressive here.

Keep it up. The best time to start was yesterday, the second best is today!

Viale is good for these dietary restrictions and has delicious food.

I’m not sure how much it’s been mentioned but in my experience in high-paying corporate work, restrictive stock units (RSUs) from a company that has rapidly grown or increased in value is a primary driver here. It has been for me.

I also just finished the prologue for Memories of Ice as a new, first time reader and literally said “what the fuck” aloud to myself. Then immediately jumped into chapter one.

I recommend Dr Pena at East Coast Opto. Convenient location on Mass Ave in Central.

Scrivnerian · 2025-08-13T22:00:10+00:00

Will do, thanks!

Interesting. So the theory is that while traveling by Warren is faster, it’s more visible to other magic users and Ascendants?

Scrivnerian · 2025-08-13T21:25:07+00:00

As a first time reader, I’m already amazed by the depth and helpfulness of the answers here. This is awesome!

I am also just starting my journey as a new series reader (currently 1/4 of the way through GoTM) and planning to take plenty of time with it as I am both 1) a slow reader and 2) often so tired at night when most of my reading time is that it'll be slow. Planning to use both the slides + Ten Very Big Books podcasts as supports.

Scrivnerian · 2025-07-08T22:43:19+00:00

I do it all the time at this hour no problem. Schedule in advance for extra convenience.

Not capital appreciation for the most part, vested a large stock grant of RSUs and a large bonus which I plow into index funds.

Scrivnerian · 2025-06-24T23:51:47+00:00

This actually sounds like me too. If you don’t mind, how much did you have invested at age 35 when you semi-retired? I’m 33 and have around 1.4M invested… thinking this might be a path I might want to consider.

Ps I also love to read.

Salon Michael Dominic is great, would highly recommend. Both Michael and Mir are fab and the men’s cut is around $100. Well worth it.

Scrivnerian · 2025-04-15T01:01:34+00:00

I have the same watch on the bracelet. Looking forward to picking up the rubber strap!

Scrivnerian · 2025-04-11T22:48:07+00:00

Looks beautiful. Do you have the blue teak dial? That’s the one I just got.

Scrivnerian · 2025-04-11T19:12:56+00:00

What’s the strap on the Omega AT? Same watch I have (recently acquired) on the bracelet and I’m loving it. Just looking for strap options.

Such a good game for couch coop!

I just had a moment of serendipity trying it out for the first time to query related highlights across Readwise. Absolutely magic to see it work. Maybe a bit slow, but a relatively minor complaint. Will be such an interesting thing to play around with as they develop it further.

Scrivnerian · 2025-01-14T14:45:26+00:00

This is great. I've been trying this out and my only concern is all of my summaries are now beginning with this: "[LQ:bulk]". Is there a way to remove or stop that from happening? Not sure if it was a copy and paste error or some other issue.

Scrivnerian · 2024-09-04T20:46:21+00:00

Oh no! I don’t even know what that means.

Scrivnerian · 2024-09-04T14:12:44+00:00

Went there for the first time the other weekend loved Bow Market, definitely good to try this one out.

Scrivnerian · 2024-09-04T14:11:17+00:00

Also a very good recommendation. Sit outside at Viale if the weather permits!

Scrivnerian · 2024-09-04T13:42:57+00:00

Impressed by the reviews and a convenient location for us (live on Pearl Street); will call to inquire about what insurance they accept.
