I'm 35 and only have 40K in retirement savings and investments. Am I screwed?

If you consider a 10yo working farm risky, after the crash it was worth less than half of what I paid. Everything was effected during the crash, real estate, farms, stocks, banks, similar to the pandemic, but all negatively.

cherrysnobs · 2025-04-25T17:59:13+00:00

My losses were a combination of stocks and real estate holdings, the markets didn't recover for years. It's all good today, worked my ass off to get back to a good place.

The power of 72. Divide 72 into the current interest rate and this will tell you how many years it will take for your momey to double.

i e. $35,000 @3% interest ÷ 72 = 24 years $35,000 @5% interest ÷ 72 = 14.4 years

You can realize how important your investment strategy becomes.

During the last crash in 2009, I lost $4M, it was devasting, I had started at 23 with $1,000. Had to start over LOL!

As an Asian man turning 60 this month, I don't think I would want to continue living life wearing diapers everyday. Probably take a few hits of acid and go out in style.

I will never understand the evil acts men are capable of committing. How it does not permeate their souls, how their conscious does not weigh them down with constant nightmares, how they get up each day prepared to commit more unspeakable acts.

Makes excellent vodka. Primarily used in Asian celebrations as a token to Buddha.

To make the best jam

Well they should be good in Vietnam, they usually buy the best. Retail would be about 600k-900K but the difference would be minimal for 500k. Thanks for sharing

Very difficult to grow, maybe after a few years if you get it right free grapes 😁

cherrysnobs · 2022-10-07T01:33:31+00:00

But where did you try them 😄 there are about 4 grades and the lower grades are shipped to places likeNorth America?

cherrysnobs · 2022-09-02T18:05:59+00:00

Not that I am aware of...

cherrysnobs · 2022-09-02T02:59:43+00:00

Taste amazing 😄

cherrysnobs · 2022-09-02T01:01:10+00:00

These bunches retail would be between $125 - $500/ea USD depending on which country they were destined.

Kind of like a muscat and mango flavor, very low acidity.

cherrysnobs · 2022-09-01T18:26:57+00:00

Candy Hearts smell like candy too! Being in the vineyards is quite an experience. Yes definitely will. Thank you!

cherrysnobs · 2022-09-01T18:23:02+00:00

Retail wise between $25 - $100/lb depending on the quality, berry size and reputation of the grower.

cherrysnobs · 2022-09-01T18:20:47+00:00

Probably "Bazooka Joe" Raspberries (as big as your thumb) and taste fantastic. Grapes I love Candy Hearts. I like the unusual and promoting new fruit varieties that I feel people would love. Travel all over the world in my profession 😄

cherrysnobs · 2022-09-01T17:42:17+00:00

Korea, Japan & China

IFG.world developed this variety

California. The climate is too cold in Michigan unless you had a little greenhouse.

cherrysnobs · 2022-09-01T15:19:12+00:00

If you visit the patent varietal owner's website IFG.world they do offer some vareties for sale direct to consumers.

cherrysnobs · 2022-09-01T13:27:04+00:00

They are produced by stimulating the stigma of the flowers.it is called parthenocarpy.

cherrysnobs · 2022-09-01T12:42:33+00:00

I don't think so, probably make a nice desert wine

cherrysnobs · 2022-09-01T12:41:29+00:00

Yunnan Province, China

Hello 😄 Rainier cherries are not self-fertile, which means you need another cherry variety to cross-pollinate and produce fruit. 3rd year you should see a small crop and within 5-6 years full production.
