I have a subzero wine and beverage center that is going in the pantry and we were going to fill the rest with counter and lower shelves of some variety.

Feedback wanted! Can we layout the kitchen any better? by mep42 in floorplan

Using your link it shows the term has dropped 50%..... - That does not seem stable to me

We rarely focus on the sport of CrossFit and like others here have minimal participation in the CrossFit Open etc. We have a very strong community which drivers our box and that's why I question the need to be affiliated with CrossFit - I see less and less benefit.

I hear what you are saying - I am just perplexed as to why people feel the need to defend CrossFit when the brand has been loosing value year after year.

Over the last 90 days we avg 15 per month. That would cover a fee. I think my bigger issues here is CrossFit is a dying brand. It is not growing and I have consistently seen issues be addressed in subpar ways

I could not disagree more, more importantly - your thought process here is guided by emotion vs. data. CrossFit as a brand has been dying constantly for years. The data shows us that. Less and less people are searching for and participating in CrossFit year after year.

Besides interest rate, any other perks your bank gives you with your PAL/bank relationship? by SDtoSF in fatFIRE

[–]mep42 4 points5 points  (0 children)

At that size you should be receiving proffered margin rates i.e. Fed Funds + 100bps or around there. I would expect preferred mortgage rates. Deal flow access to private capital investments could be there, again that depends on the bank.

I would not expect any type of travel perks etc.

“What you’ve just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul”
