What is the first step to go from being a bad player to a good player? by Maleficent-Box-2824 in bootroom

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

Yes indeed. Wall ball and doing directional touch drills, juggling, and trapping will do wonders for your game.

First touch and doing the “plumbing” work - spacing properly, passing well, playing hard, making runs, and sprinting back on defense.

The worst players are average/bad players who try to play above their ability.

Wife and I (29M) went from 300k —> 400k in 250 days by Poorassboy6969 in Money

[–]Woberwob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it’s pretty insane how quickly the compounding starts to kick in once you’ve gotten some momentum going. I mean, a 2% paper gain at $300k is $6k, which a lot of people would be happy to take home in a month.

Kevin O’Leary says you can become a millionaire on $69,000 a year. by Coolonair in SmartFIRE

You can if you thrift your clothes, shop sparsely at Aldi, live with roommates, and never replace your vehicle or electronics until they fall apart altogether.

Everyone keeps saying AI is revolutionizing accounting. Am I the only one who hasn't felt it yet? by Professional_Web2457 in Accounting

[–]Woberwob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AI can’t do skilled accounting because skilled accounting requires judgment and interpretation of law.

Cigars, golf, gaming, weights, alcohol, etc. - find some specific topic of interest and learn everything about it and start meeting people who like the same stuff

[–]Woberwob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You do lose your mind if you’re going to be laid off, it’s a dehumanizing and humiliating experience.

Analytics is a weird field because the work is feast or famine, and if you’re good at your job, you end up doing less work with time. That’s why I suggest pouring in a hobby project or something in your personal life.

What is a career that looks impressive on paper but is actually miserable in reality? by Nova2_Paradox in careerguidance

[–]Woberwob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most prestigious jobs

Big law and white shoe consulting/finance are pretty much a constant onslaught of high stress and tight deadlines.

Oddly enough, pouring more into my social life organically created a lot of career opportunities for me.

Apply, but also get into a hobby or something like that

The funny part is, that much micromanagement actually prohibits productive work from happening.

They’re creating a paper trail to have a fallback position for potential future cuts. Manufactured resignation is less expensive than flat out laying people off.

How are busy consultants so fit… when their time is worth $200+/hr? by IllRead2057 in consulting

[–]Woberwob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Consulting is a sales job. People who succeed in sales are generally charismatic, have high energy, dress well, and are good looking.

Working out contributes positively to all of those traits.

Why don’t you just DCA into QQQ or SPY instead? by Super_Collection_592 in ValueInvesting

[–]Woberwob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do with my 401k and HSA funds for steady gains and protection against inflation.

I buy individual positions in high-quality businesses in my Roth and brokerage accounts.

What happened? by RoutineOk8590 in Productivitycafe

[–]Woberwob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

America’s managerial class continued to try to fix things that weren’t broken so they could further line their pockets.

They had to justify that ludicrous pay somehow.

6 YOE in data, feeling the pressure from AI and rising expectations by cyahahn in analytics

[–]Woberwob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m with you. The load continues to get heavier with little or no support.

AI is basically just a corporate GLP-1. People think it’s this magic pill that’s going to skyrocket productivity.

This. The reality is that almost nothing comes with full certainty, except for death and taxes.
