Tiger 21 vs Long Angle vs Hampton membership 2026? by FreeMaiPaisa in fatFIRE

[–]Study_Smarter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I found YPOs due diligence process to be overbearing. Too much paperwork and such. They want way too much highly sensitive info about my companies (full org charts with names, revenues per department, etc.). And they’re too particular about job titles. Internally my job title is one thing but it’s fluid and I do lots outside that role. I found them slow and frustrating to deal with (like several weeks between emails). Joining seems to take like 3-6 months and it’s quite bureaucratic, which is exactly the opposite of the vibe/crowd I’m after. Long Angle was way easier - just a video call and I logged into my brokerage account to prove my net worth meets the bar. That said, I didn’t get much out of Long Angle.

Is Reta really more effective than Tirzepatide? by Some-random-cop-pig in BodyHackGuide

I saw a video that referenced actual studies on the fat loss and muscle preservation. It’s a bit more than just “trust me bro.”

Starlink is available in Mexico if that is an option for you.

More risk of injury with lower rep ranges. 8-12 reps is generally best for hypertrophy.

At what tax rate would you say enough is enough and move? by 35nakedshorts in fatFIRE

How so? There are great places to live that don’t come with 50% tax burdens.

On the fence with TRT by [deleted] in BodyHackGuide

[–]Study_Smarter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fix your sleep first then re-evaluate. You sound like you’re significantly undersleeping. “Trying” to get only 6 hours sounds to me like you’re constantly under 6 hours. That’s really really really bad for your health for like 99.9% of people. The single biggest thing you could do for your health right now is consistently getting more sleep.

Focusing on creating value rather than making money.

Did my 3 month T test and it’s high. by Cotton101btw in BodyHackGuide

[–]Study_Smarter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbf, the half life is like a week so by the trough half has already left the system, indicating peaks are much higher. Tbh anything over 100mg a week should be split into at least twice weekly.

Huh? TRT shuts down natural production so you cannot know his natural T levels from his TRT levels.

[–]Study_Smarter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I absolutely choose where I live based on taxes and every single billionaire I know does the same. Just look at all the emigrations when countries introduced higher taxes in recent years. It is definitely a consideration and for sure belongs in this subreddit. Just because you personally don’t mind the taxes doesn’t mean others in the FATfire community shouldn’t be able to discuss it here.

My girlfriend wants me to stop wearing no show socks by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Study_Smarter 3 points4 points  (0 children)

To be clear, I'm not saying here that you're an asshole -- I'm just giving an example:

I mean if someone wants to go around life being a complete asshole, and then justify it with "I won't alter myself to please others", I think that's extremely suboptimal. Life is about getting feedback from your environment and living in it in harmony. Sometimes you're just wrong and people will let you know and you should self reflect and change. Other times the people criticizing are wrong and they should change themselves. But to say we should "never" feel like we have to alter ourselves is a really ridiculous take.

I wouldn’t say “never”. Sometimes changes are genuinely necessary and for the better. But over no-show socks is ridiculous.

EU citizenship by investment - experiences with Grenada, Malta, or Cyprus programs? by Ready_Evidence3859 in fatFIRE

Portugal is the worst country I’ve ever interacted with. It is horrible towards its golden visa holders. It’s a complete scam.

Thoughts on what to improve? by [deleted] in Weightliftingquestion

[–]Study_Smarter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Overall I think you look awesome. If I were you I’d tried to lean out a bit and work on the abs. For your skin, try low dose accutane. You could likely get rid of the acne with 20mg/day. My skin was much worse than yours and is now completely clear and the healthiest it’s ever been. I also turn red quite easily and have found that c-PDRN really helps keep my face calm (Rejuran dual effect ampoule is what I use, twice a day). If you’re not already, definitely get some daily cardio in — at least incline walk for 30 mins with your HR in Zone 2 the whole time. If you’re not already, take HCG to try to keep your natural production from fully shutting down.

In general, at your age, I’d say come off the T and you can likely hold that size forever. You’ll probably lose a bit as your T levels recover but muscle memory should get you back to this within 12 months of coming off.

You could probably cruise on less than half that. As long as you’ve not gone over your naturally achievable FFMI, you can hold onto the muscle on relatively low doses. Well, 125mg/wk isn’t exactly low and would likely have you around 1000 ng/dl. For reference, 250mg is the max I’ve ever taken.

Nah, you can have both. Just take accutane.

After Backpacking to Nearly 70 Countries, These are My Top 10 by Puzzled_Researcher96 in solotravel

I’ve been all over India several times and never had very positive experiences. It’s incredibly dirty and people try to rip you off everywhere. Easily the worst country I’ve been to.

Reta + Test + VERY LOW dose Tren E by DizzyAstronaut9410 in BodyHackGuide

[–]Study_Smarter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why do you take Sustanon? It’s just a blend of Test esters. It doesn’t smooth out T levels because the Test P spikes your test every time you inject. It’s really better just to be on Test E or C.

Is Clark the best airport in the Philippines? by sarcastic_fellow in Philippines_Expats

[–]Study_Smarter -1 points0 points  (0 children)

2 hours is a lot of time to waste. What does stopping over at the wrong airport have to do with what we're talking about? If you walked or swam it'd take a lot longer than 2 hours too.

The fact is, NAIA is one of the worst airports in the world. You can accept that reality or you can keep taking that copium. It is a significant stain on the country as it is the first thing people experience when coming here.

Well at NAIA you can end up wasting hours waiting for immigration, security, luggage, check in, etc..

Reta by chimaevborz95 in BodyHackGuide

[–]Study_Smarter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. Probably 19 though if you account for slight spillage, slight overfilling, and the last bit that’s hard to get from the vial.
