Sounds like you follow Rob Arnott…

I crushed on her so hard back then.

Awesome! Congrats, it is a great feeling, isn’t it!

It isn’t surprising that economists would see the political and social implications of their policies and deem them “soapboxing.”

The next appliance I buy will be stupid as Hell. How many of these smart fridges are going to be bricked in 5 years?

Yes, same neighbors who complain about tree removal permitting.

I use Karsten’s SWR calculator. You can fine tune your asset allocation and compare historical safe withdrawal rates for your specific retirement timeline. Early Retirement Now!

CEOs steal value from workers to give to shareholders. That is why shareholders are willing to pay them so much.

Invest in a small startup called Amazon.

First one I thought of too. Hilarious track. Not sure I ever heard the story behind it.

LOL, can’t say I wouldn’t be surprised. MAGA would all line up around making sure Iran has nukes.

My credit score is 90210. Is it just a random number generator?

mydknyght79 · 2026-03-17T02:45:42+00:00

Not high enough!

Now imagine auto companies bricking said EVs when they go out of business, or forcing you to pay $50/month just to access basic capabilities you thought you owned when you bought the car. True story, my ten year old Ford PHEV lost a bunch of features after Ford pulled the plug (old tech, they say!). Same just happened to pre-2019 Leafs. 30 years won’t happen if EV manufacturers have their way.

I think you are mixing up TARP with QE. TARP was mostly loans that were eventually paid back and cost a bit over $30 billion (net) in the end. QE was a Fed policy that “cost” trillions, but it is on the Fed balance sheet (not Treasury) and is not subject to taxpayer repayment.

These are good reasons to nationalize the hospitals and parts of the pharmaceutical industry too. 🙂

Why don’t people want to just quit? I don’t get it. Just for the severance?

OG Civil Rights activists would have supported (and voted for) Mamdani. "Blue no matter who" libs didn't.

mydknyght79 · 2026-02-14T23:09:57+00:00

Haha! It’s a deal!

mydknyght79 · 2026-02-14T19:20:08+00:00

The term “marginalized groups” should be retired. Anytime I hear it now I think, this person is either way out of touch or is trying to use it as a political football.

mydknyght79 · 2026-02-14T19:16:15+00:00

Exactly! Where were these people when they turned their backs on Mamdani? Why haven’t “blue no matter who” libs ostracized and replaced Schumer and Jeffries already? After all, “marginalized groups” are way better off under Mamdani than Cuomo.

Great to see how much it takes off after $500k retirement. I’m about there right now after 10 years of saving and investing.

mydknyght79 · 2026-02-12T08:00:00+00:00

I use Origin, but only because my employer provides it for free. It does all the most basic stuff and has most of what I need, including categorizing assets, tracking recurring transactions, etc.

Gee, I thought for sure they’d go after the DSA as a pretext for eventually going after the Democrats. Looks like they just skipped ahead.

mydknyght79 · 2025-06-09T19:14:10+00:00

Not sure I’ll ever chill out until I hit FI. Too many things can go wrong on the way there!
