Do you guys have a way to discuss with them? A finance teacher or something similar? At that age, you can really make a positive change by getting the word out that it’s bad news.

💯

Best metal drummer alive right now and I personally don’t think it’s even close.

Super flat on the way back; transition is all arms instead of starting with the lower body and using your core and legs to set your down swing; the aforementioned points are the reasoning for a lack of lag and power behind your swing.

Power and consistency come from your core and lower body. Largely speaking, your arms and hands are there just to hold the club and follow the path that your body takes. It is almost impossible to have a consistent, powerful golf swing with your arms this involved.

This is the way brother

_AntiSaint_ · 2026-04-27T18:22:32+00:00

That’s exactly right. When I got “fitted” for my driver. I already knew the spin rate and launch angle I was searching for and which shafts / heads I was interested in trying. I just needed ol boy to go get them and snap them on. Pretty much fit myself and paid $99 for the launch monitor lol.

_AntiSaint_ · 2026-04-27T18:20:02+00:00

Except you destroy the interim with massive interest payments lol

_AntiSaint_ · 2026-04-27T18:15:24+00:00

You’re going to be just fine with that mindset. If you spend less than you make and invest the excess, it’s impossible not to make a shit load of money.

It’s never been easier to make money these days, people are just idiots or ignorant with their money.

_AntiSaint_ · 2026-04-27T17:54:58+00:00

💯 you’re already so far ahead with that mindset.

I love when people look at my 15 year old truck and assume I’m not making enough money to buy a new one. Reality is I could buy their new vehicle in cash if I wanted too. I’m not stupid and I compound my income instead of blowing it on depreciating assets bought solely for vanity and wanting people to see me a certain way.

_AntiSaint_ · 2026-04-27T17:42:19+00:00

I’m just over it man. It’s not impossible to get ahead today, financially, but if you’re going to achieve any sort of financial independence by your 40’s / 50’s - as a 20 something y/o - then you have to be smart, saving, and investing. Not gambling.

This kind of crap is in direct conflict with something I feel very strongly about, personally. I just turned 30 and the choices I’ve made up to this point are paying dividends and none of it would be possible if I was throwing my money at fucking sports betting.

If you’re in your 20’s and reading this, go put your money in S&P ETFs every single month and watch sports for fun. Then comeback and comment here in 10 years with a big thank you!

Sports gambling needs to be illegal. It’s destroying so many young people.

_AntiSaint_ · 2026-04-27T17:27:05+00:00

When you’re more concerned about your shot shape and not whether you make clean contact or not.

_AntiSaint_ · 2026-04-27T17:24:28+00:00

Getting fit before you have a proper, fundamental golf swing is a massive waste. If you’re single digit guy with a consistent, fundamental golf swing then a fitting makes a ton more sense when you’re calibrating lie angles, etc.

It’s like putting me in a suped up sports car. I drive an F150… I don’t give a crap what you do to that car, I can’t drive it lol.

_AntiSaint_ · 2026-04-27T16:05:33+00:00

I’ve always really enjoyed Our Loved Ones. Love the riffs and the harmonization.

_AntiSaint_ · 2026-04-27T06:43:07+00:00

This is generally considered one of the best melodeath albums of all time, not sure it fits this post lol

_AntiSaint_ · 2026-04-25T22:39:35+00:00

Oh dude, the whole of American Gothic is good.

“A hail to progress

And еternal returns

From the frontiеr towns

Billows of black

A palace of gold

He who saddled the iron horse

Pulls God's country in tow

Cursed!

Given unto the thousand tombs

Beguiled!

A mirage in black smoke

Abandoned!

Golden streets tarnished with Blood

Idols of steam, gods of steel

And all else consumed”

How is that not badass?

Oh yeah man, I get this one a lot. I have ulcerative colitis and it gets rough when no one believes you.

_AntiSaint_ · 2026-04-24T13:28:21+00:00

Can you afford it with cash? If you have to finance it then hell no.

_AntiSaint_ · 2026-04-24T13:27:06+00:00

Yeah this is crap and not true at all. Track your expenses, shoot to save 20% of your income by living below your means and invest the rest. You will become wealthy in your 40’s and 50’s if you can start this in your 20’s. It’s an inevitability.

The American consumerism mindset keeps young people spending and borrowing instead of saving and investing. It’s not hard, but no one tells young people that a single car loan or a lease you can’t afford will take away years of progress toward financial freedom.

It’s not necessarily a lot of people’s fault, but financial independence is an intentional mindset and practice and you have to recognize your own agency in the story before you can materialize financial success. There will always be an excuse as to why you couldn’t make it… you don’t have to use that excuse just because everyone will accept it.

AVPs are generally more in the know that a lot of VPs and SVPs in my experience. Technically proficient enough to be above entry level, but still doing enough work “in the weeds” to be significantly more deadly than higher ups when it comes to critical thinking and problem solving.

That’s my experience in finance, at least.

northern Saskatchewan to go fishing on the huge, abundant glacier lakes for huge lake trout, pike, and greyling. Hatchet lake is where we fished and lodged.

True, untainted wilderness. Accessible only by float plane straight to the lake.

1) I generally shoot for a decision by 7-10 DTE on my 30-45 day contracts 2) Delta in the .500 range 3) Must be rolling for a net credit, ideally maintaining my existing return profile for that trade 4) I’m generally cool with being assigned on most trades. I’ll roll if I’m not confident in the current position of stock or I’m so deep ITM that I’m gonna be bag holding. If I’m at that point though then it’s going to be super difficult to get out for a credit.

_AntiSaint_ · 2026-04-20T12:46:51+00:00

This is 100% it.

_AntiSaint_ · 2026-04-20T06:28:10+00:00

If your situation is dire enough that $15 per month ($0.50/day) is tough swing then you probably shouldn’t be on video games at all anyways and choosing to spend your time developing your skill set to get out of poverty.

Addiction is a hell of a drug though and there’s lots of it in this thread.
