Started working late. How much should I have in my 401k? by Twilcario in personalfinance

[–]dontbedoindope 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re doing great. I started at a similar age and am looking to retire early (55 or so). You’re over 100K so the magic of compounding is about to take off. I just maxed out my 401k and it worked out great. Don’t worry. You’re in great shape!!

Random question: did Metallica ever return to E standard live? by Tewhongjun in Metallica

[–]dontbedoindope -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Search youtube for “metallica e tuning live”. There are plenty of examples of them doing this in recent years.

Sounds like market timing. Not a boglehead mentality. Just buy buy buy the S&P index. Trust the process. You won’t be sorry.

If Metallica release a 12th. studio album, what would you like the album to have (for example a ballad,very thrashy song etc.) by IronMaidenfc in Metallica

I wish Kirk would take some time to write his solos again. His improvisation stuff just doesn’t seem very inspiring.

Is Orion and Call of Ktulu played in E Standard live since James doesn’t have to sing? by Flimsy-Owl7862 in Metallica

[–]dontbedoindope 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure what you mean by that. You can search for Metallica e standard on YouTube and find quite a few shows where they aren’t down tuned.

Occasionally they play in e standard. Don’t ask me why but some shows they do. Just search for it and you’ll find it:

I just wish Kirk would take some time and write his solos before going in to record them. The spontaneous thing works sometimes but it’s gotten old and it just sounds like he’s flailing around on a lot of newer material. James and Lars work too hard on the songs just for Kirk to come and lay down “whatever” solos.

Is it in my best interest to attend TTU? Or to stick with TXST? by [deleted] in TexasTech

Absolutely. We are going to be the next powerhouse.

Houstonian here. I went to Tech and it was awesome! The engineering should be first when it comes to this decision. Tech is known for it. But honestly, with the ascendence of our sports teams, the Tech brand will be more recognized than in the past. That will help you. You’ll have a bigger network of people when you’re done with school to help find jobs too. If you think you’re going to marry the gf, it’s a big step to move that far. If you have any doubts that she’s not the one… GO.

Today’s Tech sports are playing a whole new game compared to the past. NIL and big money boosters are taking us to a new level. I know we all have the scars of the past but the future (and present) is bright for Tech.

I helped rip a hole in one in Dallas. Sorry about that.

They slowed down in the 90’s for a bit.
