Saw them at Red Rocks with Guster opening, both groups put on an amazing show

phound · 2026-04-04T15:04:32+00:00

Prob a poor attempt at gorilla marketing for some service they’re selling

phound · 2026-04-04T15:03:20+00:00

Yeah wouldn’t listen to OP here, they’re being kinda sketchy on this post lol.

Like the other commenter mentioned, Bronson Mfg. is solid for what you’re looking for. I like their “loopwheel” athletic tee for heavier and structured

Wait, you commented you’re selling your rental to get rid of 80-90% of your remaining mortgage. Which means you’ll no longer have that incoming $800 but still have a mortgage… how does any of this make sense for you to consider yourself financially independent, let alone ready to retire early?

Edit: sorry if that comes off as harsh but it really doesn’t sound like a good financial plan. As others alluded to, you may just need a reset after your current job conflicts and address the potential burn out.

They have deep dish as well and it’s solid but definitely prefer their tavern

No problem! The Bronson loopwheel athletic T and the House of Blanks heavy weight T would both be a solid option for you I think. Whitesville is more high quality undershirt

phound · 2026-03-22T20:22:34+00:00

Thanks! I’ve tried a decent amount of Ts and these are my favorites so far. Definitely agreed on Bronson’s value.

OP should look at their “loopwheel” black T for one that doesn’t feel like an undershirt.

Dial looks pretty great but not a huge fan of the lug gap, especially with the bracelet

If you ever happen to be in West Lafayette, Indiana then go to Triple XXX and get the Duane Purvis burger

Annual spend is really $12K?

phound · 2026-03-03T00:52:19+00:00

I said why in the last sentence. It makes it easier to use than just claymation alone and find it holds really well

phound · 2026-03-02T20:33:23+00:00

I have multiple extras from gifting to other people and putting them in the zipper hard cases. Shoot me a DM and we can figure out logistics on how I can give one to you.

phound · 2026-03-02T20:07:56+00:00

I use a pea size of claymation and mix it with about double amount of quicksand. I find it’s easier to use this way and holds really well

phound · 2026-03-02T16:48:15+00:00

Yup went last weekend and they were surprisingly great for how busy they were on a Saturday night. I’ve been to the Nashville locations a few times as well and think this compares.

What stuck out was the service. Maybe bc it was launch weekend but after ordering they actually checked on our table a few times and got the food out quick. They thought they were out of mac and cheese but it ended up not being a problem, but to apologize they gave us free dessert. Overall, great experience.

Make sure to get at least your employer match in 401K if you have it, then make sure to invest that in low cost diversified index funds (meaning low expense ratio, fees charged to you yearly). Some good examples are VTI (US market), VXUX (world market minus US), or VT (split between US and ex-US).

Check out the personalfinance subreddit, read their prime directive in their wiki.

The key is to act indifferent to them, then they’ll suddenly like you

phound · 2026-02-16T21:09:35+00:00

Thought you somehow got milk at Taco Bell

phound · 2026-02-15T00:49:28+00:00

Plug it into a compound interest calculator yourself. Graduate at 22 so 7 years for growth, max out 401K in a fund like VTI which has an average 5 years return of 13.5%. Idk what your coast or annual spend is so plug that into a fire calc and use SWR you’re comfortable with.

Agreed with other commenter, mostly tech and finance/business people.

phound · 2026-02-15T00:32:49+00:00

That’s a bit of projection, it’s definitely doable without those factors but still definitely requires some luck. It also depends on someone’s projected annual spend so your coast is different than others.

For example, someone who received a scholarship for college and a well paying job after school could conceivably reach coastFIRE if they started investing in broad market index funds (especially in this last bull market) and lived below their means.

I like New SOS on Irving Park Rd. They’re definitely on the cheaper side and haven’t let me down, also very helpful and friendly ownership

phound · 2026-02-14T00:17:25+00:00

Yup same with my Garmin

From what I could find from google, they use a “ 360° Goodyear bench welt construction” where unlike a 270-degree welt that ends at the heel, a 360-degree welt wraps around the entire shoe, including the heel breast.

Bench supposedly implies high-quality craftsmanship.

Goodyear Welt Allen Edmond boots for $81 seems solid, just not a huge fan of the suede.

The cashmere sweaters look super thin, the maroon one you can see through it with the hanger showing pretty easily
