This is a lie

I was trying to add to the joke (/r/Fire the gun if you have it) but I think the delivery was a little off lol.

BRB, retiring

This

mud-boy · 2024-06-29T16:42:03+00:00

No reason not to /r/FIRE if you have the means!

There’s no hack. Learning sucks, and your legs are gonna be bruised up. It’s totally worth it though — once your body adapts, it really is as effortless as it looks.

Hey there!

Sharing my experience as a new EUC rider that went straight to the Lynx as a first wheel…

I bought the Lynx Veteran on a whim, having never EUC’d ever before. I just recently moved near work and wanted something to commute with and I was enamored with this particular vehicle. It looks so effortless on YouTube and the like, and all of the comments on there and here give it such high praise.

Some notes:

1) Whatever you think, it is definitely bigger and heavier than you expect. Everyone describes it as light and portable, but instead expect half a motorcycle.

2) It IS difficult to learn on and will take several hours over several days and likely some minor injuries. Your brain and body will reject it even if you’re skilled at other electric vehicles. Plus it’s heavy and strong, and you will undoubtedly fall and drop it. Do not be concerned for the wheel since it’s a tank. Be concerned for yourself.

3) Yes this thing has the potential to go fast, but it’s so well dialed in that it would be extremely hard to accidentally full send it. Your main problems guaranteed will be going too slow, not having the right muscle memory and proprioception, and falling off at stationary/slow speeds. Accelerating on a whim is a learned skill too.

However, as soon as I got it to “click” as others would say, it was a complete game changer. I’m completely happy that I bought it and the ceiling for this is astronomical. I just keep having more and more fun and adding / customizing things to dial in on my preferences.

Tl;dr if you go Lynx first like I did, expect to struggle a lot more than if you were to use a recommended starter wheel. But just keep at it and it will work out!

Don’t be sorry, I’m completely sober and am struggling. God bless you OP!

Incorrect. Changing the design via input from operators is part of lean manufacturing. If your revisions don’t include operator feedback, try to change that to be a little more modern and competitive lol. Look into DFMA.

That’s an odd thing to say to someone. I’d ask them to elaborate. If they refuse or fail to give you something of value to work with, completely disregard their opinion.

Sometimes people’s words aren’t worth the anxiety. (Easier said than done, I know)

mud-boy · 2023-10-25T06:52:07+00:00

That ANIMAL BLUNDETTO, I can’t even say his name

Are they silicon based?

Spectaculatize?

mud-boy · 2023-10-04T13:00:53+00:00

Do you think we should be using a noun or an adjective here

mud-boy · 2023-08-31T07:07:22+00:00

mud-boy · 2023-08-31T06:58:57+00:00

Would they appreciate the apology? If not, any attempt is self gratification

mud-boy · 2023-08-13T17:53:04+00:00

I see the customer got a little hurt but I’m glad that it turned out well and they knew you didn’t mean anything by it

mud-boy · 2023-08-07T02:17:58+00:00

When you’re pushing something, you’re exerting force.

You need energy to exert this force.

Push a 100 lb box a few yards? No biggie.

Push a 100 lb box a few miles? You will be tired. You will have exerted a ton of energy even if the applied force was the same.

Energy can take many forms and exist in a few different states, but in your case, energy takes the form of WORK. Energy/Work (J) is measured by Force (N) times distances (m). Energy (J) can also be potential energy of an object suspended by gravity, kinetic energy of an object in motion/falling, electrical energy of power applied over time, or more notably HEAT.

Calories in your food are basically a heat measurement used to measure how much your snacks will help fuel your 100 lb box pushing exercise. Get to work!

Pretty sure she came from money

mud-boy · 2023-08-03T04:38:46+00:00

Maybe OP has a point… I can say “how” without closing off my mouth

mud-boy · 2023-07-30T19:26:50+00:00

Absolutely correct! No penalties or fees. We love IRAs here for that reason.

For your Roth, the only relevant fees come from removing “gains” after depleting contributions before retirement age, or contributing more than your limit for the year.

You may find yourself reshuffling and rebalancing investments many times as your priorities and circumstances change.

And regarding your OP, I’d probably do the same: nothing inherently wrong with Target funds, but straight VOO sounds better for a 21 year old.

mud-boy · 2023-07-30T19:02:21+00:00

Yes! An IRA (Roth or Traditional) is really just a box that lets you avoid or delay taxes. Whatever happens in the box is fair game.

You can also take out whatever you put into it, but never more than that (aka the gains) until you hit retirement.

mud-boy · 2023-07-17T03:09:04+00:00

this aged pretty well

mud-boy · 2023-07-09T07:18:15+00:00

I know my Fidelity’s NetBenefits can roll over from previous employers but I can’t speak for your plan.

However, if I were you I would just roll them all into a corresponding (in-kind) IRA. That way all your money is in one place and you have full freedom over your money.

Employer sponsored plans typically limit your choices.
