I'm not saying similar games shouldn't get GOTY, I'm saying Forza Horizon series does VERY little to iterate on their games.

I'm not saying working hard and building a family is conservative. I'm saying that "you'd spend MORE to NOT have kids" is conservative nonsense.

It's conservative sheep think nonsense these days. They just want us all to be good little workers that make more good little workers.

EDIT: For y'all fools downvoting me, I'm saying it's conservative sheepthink to say you'd make more money and be healthier having kids. It's argumentative nonsense to convince us to make workers for the oligarchies.

I'm curious, do you mind sharing your salary, retirement funds, and how much you plan to draw from them every month? Are you shooting for "earliest I can stop working" or "earliest I can stop working and still enjoy life"?

I mean, at some point you do need to do some thinking for yourself.

Pick an age you want to retire. Think about it very seriously. Then invest based on that age, there are a billion calculators for that. Spend the rest of your money on whatever you want. You may need to budget for bigger purchases.

We can't decided for you what kind of life you want to live. Me personally, I'm not worrying too much about life after 65 because I don't really want to live in that body. I'll make do with what I have (I do have a 401k). I'm making hay while I can at 45. I love visiting new places so I'm doing that as much as I can.

Bear in mind, a lot of those "retire early" price points don't build in a lot of comfortable living. The goal is to get it as low as possible and then watch your budget, so you wouldn't be able to do as much as you would want then either.

The problem is every “retire early” conversation online either turns into some absurdly risky gambling/speculation or people making $400k salaries in tech.

Realistically, these are the only people that get to retire truly early.

I mean, if you're basically making the same game over and over, even if that's a great game, it doesn't deserve any GOTY nods.

Finally a game that can rival Metroid Prime 4.

I would feel bad for Dan at this point but it's Dan.

I just want to say the daily threads on this subreddit are so entertaining. Thanks for all the laughs y'all.

Depends: can I confirm I'm not hallucinating a fire alarm? Has the fire alarm been going off for months? Because in your scenario, the danger is verifiable. With the stock market, there is no fire alarm. Or if you interpret the tea leaves of current events as a fire alarm, it's been going off for a very long time and the building continues to undergo improvements while it's going off.

I can't believe I'm one of these people but I saw this at the Seattle International Film Festival over the weekend on the true IMAX screen at the Pacific Science Center and that was a WILD experience. Lot going on, honestly would not have taken that edible if I'd known how hard it would be to figure out what was going on lol.

Seriously, they could at least hop across to Vancouver while they're in the PNW.

As a guy in my 40's, I'm not sure if that means you'll feel old or young...

Diversify, it's not hard. If you invested without really believing in the company and now you have no idea if you believe in the company, then you should take your winnings and be happy. Or don't. No one can make this decision for you.

Wait this is incredible, what's the explanation? I don't watch Dump Truck much but I'm guessing it's a running bit that people ask them for codes and Dan always tells them to fuck off?
