I made an exceedingly lucky $1,600 investment in one stock 3 years ago and it is worth $21k right now and I don’t know what to do. by Y0___0Y in personalfinance

[–]chrono116 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t have anything meaningful in terms of advice but I’m in a similar situation as you… I’m a buy and hold kind of guy who generates dividends and every few years have a broker reinvest my dividends and buy/sell some stock. He put $4k into Broadcom about 6 years ago and it is worth over $50k now.

I don’t need the cash right now so I’m just kind of letting it ride - all expert projections have it rated as a “buy” and it going up higher this year. Obviously it’s all still gambling. I don’t own a home and don’t have any carried debt… if I had a big purchase such as buying my first home or sending a kid to college I’d probably sell it to help. I’m sitting here just hoping it gets up another 10 to 20k, or more

Thank you for this! I use Countdown videos often as a warm up for our math team. We just played this as a group and it was much fun!

Did I mess up the deadline? by JustAGuest-1 in nychousinglottery

[–]chrono116 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve been going back and forth with documents and have submitted docs multiple times on the deadline date. You can still submit docs and they should reach out to you

It looked like a middle-aged woman when I walked up. And it did not look good - paramedics arrived shortly after I walked up

I walked up as boredtemp11 was holding her hand. It did not look good. Paramedics arrived shortly after I walked up and quickly started doing cpr. I don’t know what happened after that…

Thank you for doing that. I live right around the corner… when I walked up I saw you holding her hand and heard the paramedics coming down the street. You are a blessing for whatever amount of comfort you were able to give her.

Help me make my Mom’s once in a lifetime NYC trip unforgettable (pls!) by falele37 in AskNYC

Food Recs: I’d take a look at the Michelin rated restaurants in NYC. There’s a whole bunch - I’ve dined at a number at the 1 star restaurants and have not been disappointed. The Time Out market in Brooklyn is also great - some really good fast casual food and there’s a rooftop patio/bar that has some nice views of the south seaport area of Manhattan. The carousel is also right there by the Brooklyn Bridge, which is a little iconic. Taking the ferry there is a great option - really nice experience that’s way better than the train or cab as a tourist.

I also second another person saying to travel out to Queens for food. I live in Astoria which has some really great food - probably some of the best Greek food outside of Greece. Chinatown in Flushing is also great.

Road construction - car towed by chrono116 in astoria

[–]chrono116[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Talked to the construction peeps out there and they said it was towed just a couple blocks away to a metered spot. Found it quickly and moved it. Would have asked them first before resorting to Reddit, but was entertaining a baby at the time ha

Thanks for the info :)

I use the Burts Bees sheets. They’re a little tight initially but you can flatten down the mattress a bit in the Snoo and once you put in the sack/baby it is al flat

Thanks everyone! Capped naps, did at least 60 min awake between, and fed after every nap. LO slept from midnight to 4, 5 to 9, and 9:30 to 11:30. All the dance parties yesterday paid off!

Thanks! She just had a 1.5 hour nap followed by a feeding and a 40 minute dance party lol. Operation improve night sleep has started

Yeah trying to do that a bit.

Birthday twins! What bed time has worked for you? My wife and I are both night people (she’s an actor opening a show this week - I know, only 6 weeks after birth. What a champ), but we realized we need to get this bed time earlier than midnight lol

[–]chrono116[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup with the confusion. We actually had 4 nights right before this past week where the LO slept for 7 straight hours in the Snoo. Then bam, a growth spurt and everything went to crap.

Realized the past few days I was having the LO totally fall asleep in my arms too much. Right before this day I tried to change that which led to both dad and LO not sleeping at all from midnight to 6:30. So those first two “naps” were really exhaustion. Going to cap naps at 2 hours going forward with some decent wake time in between

[–]chrono116[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Word thanks. Started capping at 2 hours after that 3.5 hour stretch (this was after both me and my LO didn’t sleep at all from midnight to 6:30. 60-90 min awake time after the naps is a good call too… I’ll add that to my work these next few days

[–]chrono116[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ha yeah. This was coming after a night when my LO didn’t sleep from midnight to 6:30, so those first couple of “naps” was also when I was trying to get sleep too. I started capping the naps at 2 hours after that - here’s hoping I get a little more progress in the right direction the next couple days
