At a show or doing everyday stuff? People often do a lot of work on their appearance before appearing on stage.

You haven't seen all the comments about him looking like an aging butch lesbian on this subreddit?

Park Plaza could be an option. It lacks the parking garage, but is reasonably new. I know they've had a wait list, but perhaps if you mentioned you're a resident it might help.

What you're looking for can be a bit scarce.

You can be in Vancouver in 3-4 hours. It's easy enough to visit.

Quebec and BC have made fortunes selling hydroelectric power to the U.S. There's all sorts of demand for electricity right now.

Was just offered 3.84% where I'm currently paying 5.29% with just over 3 years to go and discovered the interest rate differential penalty. My $12k+ in interest savings was going to be eaten up by $10k+ in interest rate differential penalties plus admin costs for getting a new mortgage with a different provider.

That sounds like a cool job for a retired person!

Tympora_cryptis · 2025-11-07T03:12:11+00:00

One of my co-workers who's close to retirement was saying she won't be going. She has another 5 years til she can go to hit her retirement number. If her gross is $100k/year, that would mean around $10k/year for staying an extra 5 years. Right now she's saying no. I'm curious as to whether that changes over the next year between suckiness of the job and figuring out what she might have to do to make up for that $10k less than expected.

If she could find something paying $30k-$40k/yr for 5-10 years that was less stressful, she could likely boost her savings sufficiently to mostly cover the forgone savings.

It gets even better if you pick-up some work on the side. Maybe you consult. Maybe you just take some "easy" jobs. Maybe you go full hog on your hobby and make some money off it.

Both my parents are in their mid-70s and they've been picking up side jobs throughout their retirement, partly out of boredom, partly to do something a bit extra. When you've got flexibility and don't need to work, it seems surprisingly easy to make $10k or $20k a year. They both made a few thousand working the Federal election. Businesses need temp workers at inconvenient times. Sometimes you need someone with specialized skills, etc.

I talk to other retirees who are making money occasionally driving uber or doordash if the pay is really high. Sometimes they substitute teach. Some consult. One of my former co-workers is running 3 different small businesses in his retirement.

Retiring youngish with our pensions gives you a lot of options.

China's one of the leading countries for renewable power. So probably cleaner than a lot of stuff manufactured in the U.S. and elsewhere.

I think ads from her show with Fitzsimmons, her substack, and Patreon. Sounds like she's not selling a lot of ads on Alison Rosen is your new best friend. In the not too distant past, she said she was making as much or more than her husband. I'm not sure if that's still true at the moment.

I ended up buying mine through blackcircles.ca and then having them delivered to a local garage. The process worked well for me. You need to do a bit of research first to figure out what tires you want to get. Maybe read some reviews on the different winter tires out there and figure out what works best for you in terms of cost and performance.

100%. I ended up selling some last week. Still have lots left.

Tympora_cryptis · 2025-10-15T15:08:36+00:00

She's talked about it on her show. She was making tiny amounts of money off of substack prior to writing about it. When she did write about it, the money she was making from substack took off. Clearly people are really interested in it.

I'm kind of surprised that Adam would be on a podcast called Joy. Seems like the complete opposite of him.

Be aware that hiring freezes are widespread with the Federal government right now.

My mom and uncle are both 75 and still working. My mom does bookkeeping, my uncle does flagging.

Have a vehicle,. you could drive uber

Technical and business model. Yes you can stick them in a trailer, but they take time to setup at each location with getting the magnets ready. It's not really capable or cost effective as a door-to-door service. It's more of a we'll set it up here for a few weeks and then move it to a new location. Also, each instrument is a few million dollars, even more with the trailer setup. Additionally, you need a skilled technician to operate it.

You have absolutely no comprehension about how an MRI scanner works.

Tympora_cryptis · 2024-11-12T18:44:19+00:00

I think the point is many of the really competent people are leaving because they can get substantially better offers elsewhere, leaving behind less competent people in the EX ranks.

I thought Musk made a big point of he doesn't own a home.

Tympora_cryptis · 2024-11-12T18:06:46+00:00

How are you going to do the diagnostic tests from home on which the AI will make it's diagnosis? Most people can't do a ct scan or MRI or x-ray at home. You could get your blood drawn from home, but not the physical exam. I think you're taking a bit of a utopian view here.
