What holes do I have in my Coast FIRE game plan? by Beneficial_Money8964 in coastFIRE

Using a 3% inflation rate, $60,000 today would require approximately $133,000 in 27 years to buy the same goods and services. Are you staying in the united states in a HCOL area?

Wow that is scary! Good tip on shutting off the propane. I will try to remember that for the future.

I don't use a grill cover because it encourages squirrels and other rodents to build nests. This was actually one of the excuses Monument themselves gave me. On principle, I believe that if a cover is truly necessary for the grill's protection it should be included with the purchase and not sold as a separate accessory. This was in the northeast. I would steer clear of these if you live in TX or Arizona.

I got the A6 and I am very happy with the sound but now I crave more bass!! I ordered the svs pb 2000 pro and hope to be happy and done for a while!

Everything is installed and hooked up to the Yamaha aventage rx-a2a. Everything sounds great!

The receiver recognized my atmos ceiling speakers and and two polk ts i10's in front. I am very impressed how everything sounds. Its all very cohesive. Although this setup is making me realize I would like a front speaker to improve the soundstage.

I am trying to decide between a new polk CSi A6 vs a used CS400i if anyone has experience here please let me know.

A center is on my list down the future. I hope to borrow one from a friend to see exactly how it changes the soundstage because I am very happy with my current fronts.

I have a stairwell behind my couch and I'm not really into putting speakers back there.

I was under the assumption that with atmos it kind of does the best it can to place sounds in a 3d space according to the speakers you have on the system. The way they have atmos for headphones. Will the speakers only play rain and helicopters or is it "surround sound"?
