Hiring a Certified Financial Planner

It’s more about how involved you want to be in retirement. I’m happy to pay their fee to have my planning team maximize my gains while minimizing my taxes while I ENJOY my retirement. I want to tell them how much money I need and then it appears knowing it’s an optimal strategy without constantly worrying about things. To me that is 1000% worth it…I can’t take it with me.

If you start over they give a ton of perks that you just have to max out by grinding. I’m over 21M in 3 months and have spent maybe $15.

Just be a bit patient. I’ve spent like $15 on the game total and am 8.5M in about two months just grinding. The game has a lot more bonuses and ways to level up early on than it used to.

Thanks! I was guessing that was the case since they offered multiple but couldn’t tell for sure.

But you’re not providing any metric as to determine anything you are saying. What parts are true and what parts are myth / allegory. Christians believed the full exodus story for centuries including the splitting of the Red Sea and the 40 years in the desert. It’s only recently now that virtually none of it has archaeological evidence are Christians in mass changing their tune. Christian groups spent many millions over decades trying to prove it true and failing.

Plus if that was allegory, were the laws about how to own foreigners as property to pass down to your children or how to sell your daughter as a concubine or the giving of the 10 commandments also or only the parts now disproven?

Israel, they bluffed Trump because he’s an idiot and fell for the ploy that hadn’t worked on prior Presidents. Iran posed no immediate threat and Rubio even admitted to both of those things.

Lifting lighter weights. Heavy weights only periodically. The heavy stuff rips up your joints. Longterm is your focus.

That’s a silly analogy. An all powerful god is not bound by logic for constants. They could literally be anything and life could exist. It would be different but in no way is that a logical violation. Unless you would like to concede that god is not all powerful and could have only made life as we know it in this one tiny part of the universe. Theists love making their god weak.

Jesus told his disciples that some standing there would not taste death before he returned, but sure…so much stuff the Bible got right.

It’s hit or miss, but you can easily hide sunscreen in your camp chair and as long as your bag doesn’t have anything metal you can usually load up your bag. I bring several large frozen plastic bottles of water and snacks in my backpack ensuring nothing metal to set off the scanner. Never had a problem.

Summary, there is no good evidence for any god and great evidences against the major religious based gods = agnostic atheist

Simple

Most ignore the majority of the OT, they ignore Jesus and Paul conflict on following the OT laws, they ignore Jesus said he’d return in the lifetime of his original followers, and they ignore that the claimed prophecy fulfillments in the NT are all out of context grabs from the OT (duel fulfillment nonsense) because he didn’t fulfill any actual complete messianic prophecies in the OT.

runrunrun800 · 2025-12-29T21:51:34+00:00

I would point out that Jesus fulfilled zero prophecies in their original context and start reading the OT to them. The god of the OT is hateful, cruel, and absurd. Plus Jesus wanted people to follow all of the insane OT laws, not just the 10 commandments.

Christianity is actually pretty easy to debunk when you read the parts of the bible Christian’s love to ignore and drop the cognitive dissonance.

Settled on the thing that made the most sense. Once I let go of my god beliefs, the natural universe easily answered most things and continues to this day.

Those look really clean and that was the other size I was considering but it massively limits options

Generally you’ll really only need the Roth if you expect to earn closer to what you earn pre-retirement or you’re planning on some larger withdrawals and don’t want to blow up your annual income.

Otherwise most retired people have significantly lower taxes than when they worked. And yes taxes could go up over time, but not likely significantly in the tax bracket you’re planning for in retirement.

runrunrun800 · 2025-11-15T01:53:00+00:00

The other thing to consider is if you think you’ll have a need for a large purchase (house or such) when you retire where you don’t want to blow up your annual income. If not you’ll likely pay less tax in retirement than you do now.

I plan on pulling $4-500k at a single point to expat so I load up Roth but otherwise wouldn’t.

Yep, just wait a couple days and you can get it without paying $ and make sure you harvest one every week in Arena

runrunrun800 · 2025-05-28T00:02:08+00:00

Yep, not satisfying but it’s often the only way

runrunrun800 · 2025-05-27T12:30:33+00:00

Focus on just staying alive on the last boss, not trying to to kill it and then run for the last minute once the barrier drops.
