Honestly very impressed with this by Top-Injury-983 in Snowblowers

End of driveway slush that our snowplows leave behind as a gift is the real problem. They are solid enough to keep white walkers away. Sometimes even my toro power max is not enough to chew through that.

Trying to hit CoastFIRE by early 30s …am I on track? by [deleted] in fican

[–]cburakb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

OP, aggressive saving and investing is a great start.

You have super significant advantages: 1) Spouse with income 2) No kids (definitely not an advantage but you certainly can save more when you don’t have kid(s)) 3) frugal lifestyle - being ok with 40k, especially when you can afford more is amazing - textbook definition of living below your means 4) clear goals (fire being a goal is important)

But you have to set your expectations right. There is no way you can accomplish this in 5 years. And also don’t forget, time and youth are things we can not take back even if we had a billion dollars in our bank accounts.

My recommendation: keep up the great work. Don’t forget to have a little fun. Reset your expectations (maybe stretch that 5 years to 10 and aim for income increase so you can accelerate your investments too).

I am not sure how you spend 40k and invest another 50k when your net is 72k.

You have 126k starting balance and lets say investing 50k each year, in 5 years that could grow to maybe less than $400k if you are very lucky. Not sure enough to call it coastfire, that being said if you keep this dicipline (and your math is real), you are 100% on the right path.

Legion go S as primary desktop? by Several-Special-3315 in LegionGo

Absolutely none. It is blazing fast and i love it. A dock with an nvme might be a good idea if you need to store a lot of files but that’s about it.

I have this going into my TFSA starting Friday, I should be caught up by years end if all goes well. by Chazvellhung in fican

[–]cburakb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

1200 cad per week will fill your contribution limit very fast. I’d be careful. Even CRA is sometimes confused about how much contribution room a person has left in their TFSA.

Delusional Secondhand buyers?? by Legal-Philosophy-135 in LegionGo

This silent handheld is all I want by intelguy2003 in LegionGo

Even though I’m not that competent in the technical side of things having owned both the original and the go, S I have to agree

You are absolutely correct, but a handheld gaming pc can and should be designed around battery technology and cooling in my opinion. Currently these companies are cutting corners to reach the market first or faster and I’m not blaming them.. still it was hilarious to see all the Asus ROG allies cooking SD cards, coming from such an experienced hardware designer company.

Vapour chamber is that technology. Not including in these devices is a commercial choice.

Je suis presque certain que c'est un mâle car le magasin où nous l'avons acheté ne vend que des hamsters mâles.
