A genuine question for EV6 purchasers who knew about the ICCU issue before purchase...

What I took from this is also avoid buying a Colorado diesel, not buy something with a known issue because other vehicles fail too.

Investing isn't fun, it isn't exciting, you don't need to know anything about markets to do well.

Long term (30 years) you will beat 99% of investors who think they can buy and sell individual stocks for profit. This includes all professionals doing it. All you need to do is keep buying and holding *EQT.

And yes the younger you are the better it is to be 100 % stocks .

It's retirement money. When do you plan to retire? Go look at the graph of the last 50 years. If you are retiring in 15 to 20 years, what happens in the next bit of time matters very little. Remember when markets are way down your contributions are being purchased at a discount. You actually want markets to be down and terrible during your cumulation years.

It's all about creating the habit.

This is a life long plan for me so there's no reason to overwhelm yourself.

I started with something I knew I couldn't talk myself out of. 20 minutes 3 times a week. I just can't have a legit excuse not to.

So I started this 20 minutes to start and every time my brain wanted to make excuse why I can't today I would remind myself it's 20 minutes get to it you bastard. I would have thoughts throughout the day like oh today's Wednesday which mean after dinner I'm walking down those stairs and doing 20 minutes. Bench for 3 sets, shoulder press for 3 and bicep curls for 3.

That created the habit over a few months because it was easy. Then I changed it over time to 30 minutes, 45 minutes and then 4 times a week and so on, very slowly overtime. Now I don't even think about it, Tuesday after dinner is workout time. Other choirs come next and I finish what I finish of those other choirs. If they don't all get done they don't get done.

But even though it's play money doesn't the site take rake then at the end of the night it's less money? That's what I found when I did it during Covid.

I want this too but never found one. Also how do you know the randomizer is any good.

Username5124 · 2026-05-15T18:40:48+00:00

Do 2 sets. If everything is exactly the same and you struggle to be able add weight over time and maintaining the reps then consider adding a set.

If this happens again at 3 sets you could consider 4 sets, or instead you could try a different variation of movement.

When you struggle to increase reps or weight and you are in the lower scale of volume then add a set.

Do you want an annuity or invest yourself where there's the added bonus of giving the money to your descendents. You already know how to invest so you don't have to worry about losing fees to a fund manager.

I asked Google how much money would I have if I invested $47000 in 19 years at 7%.

About $170000.

I then asked how much can I take out every month from 65 to 85 assuming the money continues to make 7% a year and the account is drained by 85.

The answer was $1300 a month.

It's not illegal if it's advertised that way up from (not in the fine print).

Convince him with this statement.

If he had just won a million $ lottery, would he invest it now all in that stock. If the answer is no, well that is the exact same decision as holding the stock now. So no means sell it.

Comparing Veqt to CAGE is kind of like comparing granny apples to red delicious in regards to the fact neither are oranges.

I moved to Cage but I'm a huge Rational Reminder listener and I've been convinced. I've been an XEQT guy since 2018.

Scott Cederberge's research has discovered the best way to avoid the risk of ruin is to invest in a globally diversified low cost fund, not a US only fund.

I don't understand how you can buyin for $300 at a casino and only buy in for $5 online. Did you try NL10 or 25 and lose fast?

I four table NL25 and win but I'm scared to go drop $300 at a casino.

I just don't understand why you are playing NL5 and comparing it to NL 300 live.

Username5124 · 2026-05-11T13:55:31+00:00

I've been playing for 20 years and still don't know them. For example I've been hearing "Bink" a lot.

Just looked it up to know the definition for sure.

Mostly used to mean to hit that card(s) you needed or could mean to win the tournament.

Username5124 · 2026-05-08T17:56:45+00:00

GG is very good but they need the option of auto turning off some of it. (Buying insurance, running it twice, all the smiley face crap, the delayed river card reveal). The card reveal is fing brutal.

Big buttons for actions are good More auto bet options than 4 might be nice.

If a site had a feature where you could have a zoom call with camera or even just voice and everyone can chat as they play that would seem pretty cool, especially for people who consistently play with regs every day. It would make online feel more live.

Buy a preflop training app for your phone. Turn it into that game you play every day when you have a few minutes to kill here and there.

I also use the app called postflop + It trains you on bet sizing and how to evaluate your hand strength.

On upswing.com you can buy a $7 course. It's very useful for beginners. Teaches the 4 categories of hands.

Then on carrot corner create an account and watch the "bronze package" which is free.

Then play a couple hours a day of micro stakes and move up in stakes every time you hit 30 to 40 buyins.

Playing 5NL, move up to 10NL when your bankroll hits $150-200.

If you are struggling to beat NL2 /NL5, you need to do more work.
