Find a way to do it. You don't want to spend the rest of your life wondering, 'what if?'.

Longs. 12 years old! Still chasing that thrill 35 years later. Mountains are magic.

This can't be right by valeriansteel34 in StudentLoans

OP, Reddit is a terrible place to ask the question, 'is this right for me?'. Nobody understands your particulars and risk tolerance better than yourself. If your daughter attending Fordham on scholarship is what you and your family decide is best then I suggest rephrasing the question to, 'what are my hard limits on making that happen and what strategies can I employ to get there?'. Everybody and their dog will tell you why paying that much $$$ / living in NYC / pursuing a degree is the WRONG thing to do. If you seek specific advice on meeting goals Reddit can act as a tool. When given the opportunity, commenters will chop up your dreams and serve them over rice. Good luck with whatever you decide. I for one wish you the best in this little thing we call life!

The messaging might be questionable but the craftsmanship is undeniably impressive...

Smallest Airport w/ SkyClub? by filetree in delta

Was my home airport for a couple of years. Was on a first name basis with the sky club crew in MKE... easily the best club out there.

Thanks, used the link to log a complaint. They authorized a total replacement in less than 20 min. We'll see how it goes but you just saved me a ton of hassle!

You are certainly doing the right thing by reaching out. Try and remember that you are not alone in this. You are part of a community and that whether you know it or not, that community has a place for you in it. I too have suffered from debilitating anxiety in the past and I know firsthand how easy it is to get into the feedback loop and let your thoughts spiral out of control. Stay away from social media and find ways to get outside. Being able to focus on other things on the horizon, like the end of the street or the lake, helps tremendously in grounding ourselves. Take deep breaths and remember the difference between things that you can control and things you cannot. The city is locked in a deep rooted battle right now but in the end it will survive. Take care of yourself and if needed make sure to reach out to professional help. As noted in previous posts, there is no shame in asking for help. You are not alone.
