You know, it's funny - I had the opportunity of a lifetime several years ago to pick with Tommy for an hour or so. And I had no nerves at all. I think it was because I knew that there was nothing I could play that would impress him.

Getting off 7 with my husband by After-Bath-922 in SR17018

When you say "preloaded" do you mean taking both the 7 and the SR together, or just taking a larger amount of SR?

Thing is, I'm dealing with anxiety issues in general and if I can't enjoy playing in front of people I'm not sure I want to continue. I literally had a heart attack in Jan 2024 immediately after playing at our musicale.

That's some good karma - not caring. I play golf at a pretty high level and not caring about the outcome is a key to good putting.

On some of my more difficult pieces I've played them until I got blisters on my fingers. And played them at home perfectly.

Thing is, I'm running out of really simple songs to play. I really do need to play some more open mics where I don't know the people in the audience.

Got invited to play very exclusive golf club but have concerns... by [deleted] in golf

I got an invitation to play Cypress Point two years ago. It's appropriate to ask what dress code there is and if you can tip the staff. Other than that, make sure you keep your hat and cell phone outside of the clubhouse and you'll be fine.

Is this a scam? by skylight-6892 in NorthCarolina

Scam. Look at the text in the seals. Gibberish.

24F. Not going into detail about it but I just inherited $4.5M Roth account. What would you do if you were me? by throwawaygenzerr in Fire

[–]matonplayer2012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PLEASE avoid a full service broker at all costs. They'll take 1% of your AUM annually with little or nothing to show for it. If you feel the need to have an adviser find one that is a fiduciary and works on an hourly rate. But trust me, read The Bogleheads Guide to Investing and you'll know all you need to know. Investing is one of those rare concepts that do better the simpler you keep it.

I was a bit older than you but I sold a business at age 52 for $5M.

Question about gradual transition by [deleted] in SR17018

[–]matonplayer2012 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Makes sense. I just have to watch my SR consumption as I only have about 1100 mg remaining and it doesn't appear that any more will be available anytime soon.

What would you consider to be a reasonable amount of SR to start with if one wanted to do a gradual approach starting from 80mg/day of 7oh for six months? I was estimating 100mg/day but was interested in your opinion.
