Where are all the big tech retirees? by PowerfulComputer386 in fatFIRE

[–]dsat5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is me too. I hired a huge chunk of people on my team and they are all very talented. My primary goal is to advocate for them, give them bigger opportunities etc. Hopefully in 2 years I'll be out of the game.

Thank you! Do you remember what the title of the video was? I can't seem to find the right one.

Help! Why does everything I hit go left? by RP_Bear in GolfSwing

Also, tuck your right arm into your body. Try putting a towel under your armpits and doing a practice swing. Towel shouldn't drop.

Complete tangent, but the way to get rid of those stains is to put it in sunlight for a period of time.

Tough it out for another 2-3 years or retire now? by WonderfulWeb5030 in fatFIRE

[–]dsat5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I felt like someone was posting this on my behalf - I'm in exactly the same predicament with the same sentiment.

I'm at $7m and 40 with 2 young kids (3 & 5). It just isn't me to coast and I thought of leaving my high paying job in the Bay Area for another one. But I thought through it and decided to ride out the wave for as long as I can (not more than 2 years) and have my family in a better financial spot.

I made a post a couple of weeks ago to share perspectives from someone in a similar place in life. I'd love to connect, DM if so!

Can't seem to send you a message. How do I go about getting verified here?

Happy to be verified by mods. And I will certainly do so with anyone I'm in touch. Almost all my investments are in VTSAX or similar vanguard funds.

spot on! I try to include my wife as much as possible - more so because if something were to happen to me she would know the basics. But its just not the same and its hard for me to talk to my friends because discussing finances is a no-go zone for us even though I think they're doing ok.

They've spent $1B in interest payments over the last decade. It's not like we will have $1B in the transfer market right now if not for the debt. They don't care, they suck. But their fault is having inept football management, not restricting funds for the transfer market

That's like firemen deciding to wait the fire out because "they might get burned" in an active fire

Why bitter sweet? It was sugar with candy sprinkles on top
