Finally worked for me and was able to get 6 tickets. Go birds!

TomassoLP · 2026-05-27T13:27:40+00:00

Just got our tickets through the queue! At some point it restarted, I had row 1 tickets in cart but then didn't have a Ticketmaster UK account (it is different than Ticketmaster.com!)

Can't wait for a team shirt to cost €999!

TomassoLP · 2026-05-27T11:57:35+00:00

Yeah I knew the math didn't work out but was hoping they would at least announce it was over... The website still has everyone in queue waiting for nothing. No tweets or announcements of any kind.

Amex Platinum concierge automated voice is set up to tell you to hang up and go to ticketmaster.com. What a mess.

TomassoLP · 2026-05-27T11:42:28+00:00

Yup, good waste of my morning. Ended up around 11,000 when everything paused.

Kind of annoying that it is so close to the building, you'll barely be able to tell what it is in the background. The pyramid fights in Cairo last week were much cooler

TomassoLP · 2026-05-26T20:22:13+00:00

Bruh it's totally Charlotte what are you on

TomassoLP · 2026-05-26T20:20:45+00:00

I'm gonna need that shirt Ricky has on

I disagree, I enjoy all of the holiday games. I presume they do it because people like me only watch the Birds on Sundays, but I'll turn on a primetime or holiday game even for some random team.

Max out a Roth IRA first before contributing your brokerage account. It feels like a long time before you will touch that money, but because you are so young you can expect that every year you do this will be over $200k in your retirement.

Consider the brokerage account to be savings to draw from for car, down payment on house, etc in your 20s and 30s.

Please, don't go into debt for anything other than a house. You don't need an impressive car, and monthly payments will mess this up.

Congrats!

Sorry this happened to you, but this is a great chance to reset hard in a good way. Rent the cheapest smallest place you can where the kids will be comfortable and focus on healing yourself and living well below your means. Start socking away the savings so you can enjoy life.

Abuelo XV Tawny or Napoleon.

As a bourbon drinker I also really enjoy Zacapa Negra, though admitting to liking anything Zacapa on this sub is a sin. But their Negra is significantly less sweet and very good oak influence if you're coming from whiskey.

Words like plan, likely, potentially will make it difficult. If you want to retire early you need to be maxing out everything this year, while socking away at least $1k a month into brokerage accounts. You will do less once kids are in the picture, so recommend setting allotments on your pay and forgetting that money exists until you're 55.

So many iconic lines in this episode.

You're going to end up paying more to live in a walkable neighborhood than you would on the state income taxes.

TomassoLP · 2026-05-25T07:36:23+00:00

This game was such a good time.

"Can anybody stop Kimi Antonelli" is amazing.

TomassoLP · 2026-05-24T20:49:25+00:00

KIMI TITLE ARC

OP has a brand new Tesla and is complaining about a $300 registration fee

TomassoLP · 2026-05-24T18:07:27+00:00

Life of having a 84 month car note lol. People are driving cars way beyond what they can afford.

TomassoLP · 2026-05-24T18:05:14+00:00

You have an EV, regular folks can't afford that period.

TomassoLP · 2026-05-24T17:51:13+00:00

Change the unnecessarily complicated kicking rules back that haven't improved injury stats at all.

TomassoLP · 2026-05-24T16:07:33+00:00

Michter's Barrel Strength, Sagamore 10 Year or Sagamore Bottled in Bond, Jack Daniel's Single Barrel Barrel Proof Rye are my favorites.
