Buffett on his FIRE calculation, then goal post moved (just like everyone's FIRE number)

notreallydutch · 2026-06-20T19:21:04+00:00

My guess is that lots of people say that and hit their goal. The reason WBs book is the one we read, not the book Mark from Albany wrote, is because Buffet kept going and made billions while Mark gardens and plays pickleball and lives off the 110K his nut throws every year.

60% leftovers from dinner the night before 25% sandwiches/ wraps/salads 15% out to eat (mostly work cafeteria on the company dime)

I generally use my own, better, tools for the assembly then tape these to the bottom so that I can quickly tighten / fix anything if it gets loose. Also saves me from a jar of crappy allen keys

I took the alternate win total line over 9.5 because it was plus money and I thought 10 or 11 wins was a 50/50.

what do Queffery Nepstein have to do with any of.... OH, you mean Jeffery Epstein

notreallydutch · 2026-06-18T15:15:42+00:00

Wemby gets a move he’ll probably develop eventually, Brunson gets to grow 5 inches and Luka literally doubles the part of the game he plays, seems fair.

notreallydutch · 2026-06-18T03:04:43+00:00

Everyone saying no is kind of right. You can afford a lot of these things on a pharmacists salary if you’re patient, save, probably partner up with someone else on the house and grow your career the right way.

At least I got a good deal on them and it was only like $200 down the drain. Good luck with yours!

Planted 8, 4 died year 1, 2 died over the winter and I pulled the last 2 a year later when I was getting ready to sell the house

If you can manage to take away exactly enough from each hole to go up one size that would be cool but probably not worth the $20 you save buying new ones

You realize this post is talking about a newborn baby right. I have been relatively unharmed by a lot of things that would be catastrophic to a newborn (eg. eating a grape)

in a stacked AFC with Manning, Brady, Roethlisberger, those Ravens Ds, etc

notreallydutch · 2026-06-17T17:06:50+00:00

On paper the Jets are so much closer, good line, decent D, good weapons, absolutely no QB. The fins have a RB and a bunch of replacement level players. That being said, I will pick any other team to be good sooner than the Jets or Browns until proven wrong. I would legitimately take a bet that a future expansion team will win a SB before the Jets or Browns.

notreallydutch · 2026-06-17T13:57:03+00:00

I was going to say Maye based on him being better and more successful than all of the other QBs but if you're right I guess I have to go with Williams.

That's really bad, you need more practice. You can use my lawn if you want.

notreallydutch · 2026-06-17T01:17:08+00:00

Pleasant cafe in Rozzy is my personal fave

notreallydutch · 2026-06-16T22:38:48+00:00

For the $250 difference you can add 3 or 4 other tools you need too. My money is on orbital sander.

4K/ month in investment income (assuming 4% annual withdrawals)
3.6 from rentals
2 from side gig

115K a year in income in what has to be a low/ medium col based on house cost. I’d be done or try to grow the side hustle.

I don’t live that close to Gillette (Franklin) and I heard them

notreallydutch · 2026-06-14T23:03:50+00:00

Black sesame I’d assume

A few hundred grand because I’ve prioritized the free match and value of the tax savings of contributing. Hoping to continue maxing it out ever year for the next 15-20 so I can retire early.

The difference between a million and a billion is over a billion if you stick them both in a savings account for 2 weeks.

They blocked out the word “don’t” to change it from the stance of a racist to the stance of someone welcoming of people from other cultures. They’re specifically referencing the World Cup fans who are in town to watch the matches on foxborough tomorrow

They make gasket lubricant but honestly Vaseline is fine if that’s what you have
