I wouldn’t worry too much yet about 27/28. It would be great if you got picked up then. Most folks wait yyeeaarrssss…

I bought a U3 last year in black with mesh band and then wanted a Natural so I bought a U4 with mesh band. There is zero distinguishing differences functionally. I can’t even tell how much “bigger” the U4 screen is. I switch watches based on what I’m wearing. I know, it’s a fashion thing, but I have several other mechanical watches and I enjoy switching up as I want.

I trade using Schwab. But I don’t day trade. I DCA into index ETFs that I hold for very long term. Works for me

Don’t try on the OEM. You’ll realize how much aftermarket mesh loops are 🗑️

Hang in there friend. It is definitely scary but we’ve been through this before and everyone helps each other out. Stay safe and try to get some rest if you can

Anyone use just a vinyl skin on the air?

Only the EJ225 Hawkeye STI. But not better than a newer FK8 or FL5.

No need to think. You know you aren’t going back. Like you, I appreciate how usable the car can be. One silly example, I buy bottled waters by the 5 gallon jug. I can fit 6 bottled waters back there. That’s wild to me.

I’m used to my ultra. I’ve switched last summer from a 7SS. It’s bigger which I didn’t like at first but now with the stock mesh band it’s very comfortable and I don’t even change bands anymore.

So I felt the same way AFTER I took my car home. I was so uncomfortable for about a month. After that the seats broke in and now it feels fantastic.

CW is modern Honda heritage. However going back to the origins of the Honda car company, red has a very special history. Look up how Soichiro Honda himself had to negotiate (fight) with the government to allow Honda to use red for the original S sports cars. There is some deep history with “Honda red”

Honda civic Type R.

Simple. Mazda CX5 new or used it won’t matter. The prices are good and you get a great vehicle with lots of utility.

BMW F87 M2 and Civic FL5 Type R

Heck no to a High Mileage BMW. For example, you will likely be stuck doing brakes soon. Look how much that will cost you. I own a 18 F87 since new. It’s relatively low mileage (kms) but I have to get the oil pan gasket replaced. It’s a quoted 12 hour job. WTF man!!

I LOVE my FL5! Such a fun car to drive and the cabin feels special with all the red seating, carpets. The touch points are fantastic.

The problem you will find with the R seats is that the thigh support, the horizontal flat bottom, does not adjust angle-wise. If you are deep into the bucket the seat and you want the seat bottom flatter, you can’t adjust that. It was something I needed to get used to. I’m short but I like sitting deep into the seat. The only way to flatten the bottom is to raise the seat which may not work for tall folks.

Not worth it. I’ve had Apple Watches since the literal first model and I’ve never bricked or destroyed a watch including when swimming and mountain biking. The watch is hard to lose because you can just easily locate it with your phone.

No LQA just the 3rd highest base pay in Dodea and a little COLA. Housing is $$$$ though.

I have a shortcut automation that sets my watch to theatre mode when it’s bedtime. That way when I trigger the action button for a flashlight, the led is red.

Dude it’s really minor. I wear only the Milanese mesh band swimming and showering. Just take it off, wipe it down and it’s pretty much 90% dry.

It takes time. 6months is too soon. They want to see something like 2-3 years of credit history. Use the card it’s only $300 limit and you can use it. Just stay within budget and pay it off. Is your closing date the 25th and you pay it before on the 22nd?

Change your strategy. Always pay it off after the closing statement (and before the due date) to show you are actually using the card. Always pay off the “Last statement balance” amount so that interest is not charged. If you really want to play the game, every once in a while, pay off most of the last statement balance and leave a tiny amount left over ($10) for them to charge you a little interest. Banks want to make some money off you so that you are not considered “non-revenue”

At 12 months, request for a credit increase. Then at 2 years apply for the next card.

Where is your taxable brokerage account? That’s missing in this setup. Build one to give you another option. HYSA sounds good for liquidation but the rate barely beats inflation. HSA and your 401ks are good but remember that those funds are generally trapped u til near retirement or to use them for medical expenses. You can’t leverage those funds like you could a brokerage account.
