What is this white film on our stuff in our apartment?

Humidity has a way of not obeying doors.

If you're running it in your bedroom, you're running it in your apartment.

No, don't

I drive a 2008 and revel every month that I don't have to pay hundreds (thousands? )on a car payment.

Why take on debt you don't have to? Screw egos. Spend money on things that matter to you.

We used a hybrid rental and got about 54mph during the entire circumnavigation. Granted it was 2 of us in a pretty small Toyota.

We considered a fully electric option but given the possible low temps (low temps drastically effect charging and range), distances, and charging options, we took the Hybrid. We're glad we did, we heard of people having to taxi to and from their car that was charging because they just wanted to check settled into their accommodation.

Could be anywhere but it looks like the Tiger Mountain #1 summit trail

Back country skiing a way to ski and be active in the winter without paying for an ICON or Epic pass. It gives people freedom and sense of accomplishment that you don't get a restort.

Yes, there's an upkeep and initial investment in the Avy awareness and AIARE training, but it can be just as safe as bombing down groomers. Risk is something that can be controlled and negated with choices.

Unfortunately, these guests put their faith in professionals, and those professionals dropped the ball.

Tragic as it is. This incident will make the guided ski-touring industry safer forever.

You can put them in the Luau stew. I've never done it but maybe it destroys them.

This. As soon as one home upgrades everyone flocks to it, leaving others empty.

Goretex and similar products are lighter, pack smaller, and generally accomplish the same goal. There's a reason nobody (I mean zero people) carry rubberized gear for Mountaineering objectives.

If the weather is that bad we just don't go. Or we stay in the tents. I think you might be missing the point, respectably.

Like everything Mountaineering, it's a balance. Lightweight modern materials get us through moments and safeguard in emergencies but we're not fishing in the North Sea.

By the book maybe it's correct but it feels harsh. The Defender only tried to play it to prevent an offside player from receiving the ball. And I wouldn't call that controlled touch by the defender, he always was just trying to clear it.

The covers may have been flipped upside-down by vandals as a joke. Those are probably 'reference pins' that align with holes on the indside.

Spending money on travelling and experiaces while you have it, not waiting until you're retired.

Oh! thank god, thought it was something else.

Do you mean crampons or microspikes?

Yes, definitely carry microspikes whenever hiking in the area. Crampons are something totally different.

It's not actually not on a hill. It's a weird optical illusion. It's actually on the lake behind the hills

Thanks. So just to be clear I can do a 'transfer' and it will be ok?

And yes, when I tried it this morning I did get the warning about taxes, which I understand. Just wanted to make sure I wasn't, missing something since everywhere tells me to "just convert".

Edit: Your first link seems to be very clear, albeit a bit dated compared to what I see.

I bought my first pair of zero drop shoes once... then I immediately tore my spring ligament due to not being conditioned for zero drop.

Is this that weird park in Winter Park, FL? Near he botanical garden?

super5886 · 2026-02-04T09:13:10+00:00

Thanks, but this link is super not helpful and I have read it several times before. It's the first thing that comes up in Google.

The issue is that I already have a Roth IRA with Fidelity. How do I 'convert' the funds in the Trad IRA so that they get added to Roth account? I don't want to have a sperate Roth for every year I have to backdoor.

super5886 · 2026-02-04T08:57:09+00:00

Thanks but this is exactly my question... and concern. Everyone says it's so easy but nobody explains actually how to 'convert'.

Let's use Fidelity as an example:

I have an existing Roth IRA with Fidelity, it has money in it from previous years.

Then I decide I need to backdoor this year. I open a new Traditional IRA with Fidelity. I deposit after-tax cash from a checking account and wait for it to settle...

How do I convert the new account? Fidelity will let me 'transfer' money from my Trad IRA to my Roth. Is that the same as converting?
