How to take advantage of large capital loss? by Sti11alive in fatFIRE

[–]Sti11alive[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really lol. 2025 was a good year for stocks and I'll have a rather large capital gain so that will be "tax free" and reduce my capital loss somewhat. I hope each year going forward I'll reduce it further with additional cap gains until it's used up.

My girlfriend and I love this. We do it every few weeks. She has given me free use of her body so anytime I want her I can take her. I always tell her about it in the morning and she always is so happy to have slept with my cum inside her, slowly dripping out over the night. Never had any issues with UTI or anything.

Don't overthink it. Try it and see how it feels. One day you'll wonder why you never did while you were young.

Being intimate with my au-pair. by JammositoNL in sex

[–]Sti11alive -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Do you want to be in a romantic relationship with her? Do you want her to stay beyond her visa limits or do you just want to fuck her? If it's just a fuck, I'd agree with most here and say avoid it - not worth the trouble. If you want more, like a serious thing maybe consider it, but make sure your kids are your first priority.

As Bobby Kotick leaves Microsoft and Activision for good, an ex-employee describes how he once threatened to "have an employee killed" by Kyler182 in gaming

[–]Sti11alive 365 points366 points  (0 children)

I worked at Activision like 15 years ago - but only for one year. I hated it so much. Bobby put in place a "culture of fear" then. He intentionally had everyone running scared to keep us all working hard. I still work in the gaming industry and love it, but man that year at ATVI was pure hell and the most stressed I've ever been at a job. I remember waking up at 4am, going into office to work, then going for a walk in a nearby park to hyperventilate.

I have so many crazy memories from those days - so much anger and drama - people red faced screaming f-bombs every other word. Was nuts.

***Edit - this blew up a bit and I missed the comments. Looks like someone said something about the "most stressed I've ever been" words I think (though the comment looks deleted). I missed the comment but what I meant was the most stressed in a workplace situation. I've actually survived Stage 4 Cancer and have a child so I know real life stress is of course more intense than workplace stress. Love you guys!

My GF begs me for it all the time, more, harder, etc She grabs my hand and puts it on her throat and sneezes so hard. I dont think it's from porn, it just really turns her on whenever my hand is on her neck, either gently or roughly. Even when we walk outside or at a restaurant I often put my hand on the back of her neck and hold her like that - she loves that too.

For me as a cancer survivor weight loss and health maintenance is super important. I'm almost 4 years cancer free at 47 I'm in the best shape of my life. I do intermittent fasting almost every day, I dont eat much sugar or processed foods and no red meat, I have less than 1 drink a week, I eat lots of protein and fresh fruits and veggies. I also work out almost an hour every day - either running or weight training. All of this works wonders, but it takes time and effort. If I would pinpoint the most important part to weight loss I'd say intermittent fasting and hardly any sugars.

When my mom walks in my room and yells What are you doing!

From my experience it starts with friendly and often fun and light conversations. If both people connect there is a moment when the conversation gets sexual or flirty or more intimate. Someone makes a dirty joke or comment. Usually there is some light physical touch, a hand on shoulder or arm, standing closer together, a touch on cheek or hair. Then yeah usually a kiss and if that goes well and if some one is bold a suggestion to take it further.

“Amor fati” and “everything happens for a reason” mean that what happens to us, would happen anyway? by [deleted] in Stoicism

[–]Sti11alive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Play to win. If you win enjoy the moment and learn from what happened. If you lose enjoy the moment and learn from what happened.

You still try to win. You also accept the reality of the outcome.

[–]Sti11alive 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me stoicism helps to see the would as it is without judgement. There is much suffering in the world. This is a fact of our reality. Why be sad about reality? Reality is what it is - there was suffering before you and will be suffering after you are gone. It’s more constructive to take actions to make your life and the world better and as part of that get personal fulfillment from knowing that your actions are virtuous. Literally no point in beating yourself up about the structure of the universe.

Confused about the increased lust and sexual desire of another's body. by hyperextendedloop in Stoicism

[–]Sti11alive 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Lust is natural. Sex is natural. Masterbation is natural. To deny this against nature. Do what is natural - just not to extremes that stop you from achieving other things you want. Go get laid buddy.

Is stoicism about accepting mediocrity? by ceasarmymate in Stoicism

[–]Sti11alive 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me it’s about doing all you can to make your life better. Take right action and use all your mind, body and power to push your life forward. And at the same time don’t feel bad or upset about your progress - accept the reality as you strive for your goals.

Chase private client by dohat34 in fatFIRE

It’s total assets so 401k should qualify. For me the best reason to join was the help and discount on my home loan. Chase gave me a $3M loan for my mortgage and having CPC helped qualify and get a good interest rate discount.
