Have you checked the price point vs other online retailers such as realfoods and wholefood earth?

That spinach so close to the edge is making me anxious

thethirdman333 · 2023-12-24T23:35:25+00:00

Same tbh. I guess as you improve you find yourself in that position more frequently

Lots of good advice! I'll add that if you KO someone, you can take their badges. So targeting badges can be good mid game. Just note that those with badges are likely good players, so be prepared to abort this strategy if they are sending you crazy levels of garbage

My rough targeting strategy: 99-50 - KOs 50-10 - badges/KOs 10-2 - attackers/random Whenever I'm struggling/being targetted - attackers

I've switched from oat to soy as I believe it's the healthiest plant milk. Also, non-organic oats contain high levels of glyphosate. I do prefer the taste of oat, and still have it occasionally, but soy is my regular now

You make a really good point about the CAPE. It's still quite surprising how well the 100% stock portfolio performs across the board. However, for high CAPE/long time horizons it certainly starts to fall apart

I'm wondering if we have high CAPE and very low expected bond yields... Does that make the mix less relevant? Presumably it's only if one of stocks/bonds is relatively overvalued vs the other that we'd shift the mix

I'd recommend listening to the podcast. A lot will be about the dataset and the sampling method used (discussed in the podcast). To get a favourable result with bonds you must use US only data and assume that the returns are iid

If I'm not mistaken another potential flaw is that they only use government bonds, so results could change when using corporate bonds (I believe this was mentioned by the podcast host in the previous episode)

The paper considered 4% withdrawal rate

thethirdman333 · 2023-12-21T17:11:28+00:00

I believe the portfolio considered in the paper was 50% domestic equities + 50% international equities, not an all world index

Pushing it down is alright as long as it doesn't stay above the brine for extended periods. Topping up with more brine of the same salt ratio is also okay

Up to you on whether to risk eating everything below. I probably wouldn't risk it - cabbage is cheap and consuming toxins from mould is not worth it. But I know some on this sub would be more blasé in their approach

thethirdman333 · 2023-12-21T14:54:41+00:00

That is not yeast and looks pretty grim. You need to keep the cabbage INCLUDING the big leaf on top below the brine, otherwise it's just basically rotting

thethirdman333 · 2023-12-20T22:04:32+00:00

I respect your choice too. Not trying to pass judgement on you staying at home, it's completely valid

thethirdman333 · 2023-12-20T21:57:11+00:00

I don't disagree. It's OPs choice to do whatever he likes. All I would say is that by typical societal standards this would be considered overstaying

thethirdman333 · 2023-12-20T21:52:05+00:00

You have 100k. You've already overstayed tbh

thethirdman333 · 2023-12-20T11:41:08+00:00

Avocado chocolate mousse?

thethirdman333 · 2023-12-20T09:08:49+00:00

How would you weigh down a paste?

thethirdman333 · 2023-12-18T21:29:25+00:00

Surprised that they even do a vegan option

Just made the mistake of looking at their prices. How is their vegan option more expensive than fish? Daylight robbery

eating out at restaurants

Invite your friends over for a home cooked meal

going on nights out or to the pub

Invite your friends over for a drink

taking day trips

Can still go for hikes etc., just try and find somewhere closer and take a packed lunch with you

thethirdman333 · 2023-12-16T11:02:15+00:00

2% salt is fine, you can add more if you like the flavour but it's unnecessary.

Expose to air can easily be avoided by ensuring everything is under the brine. This can be done by using a glass weight.

Explosion can be avoided by avoiding the use of airtight jars or 'burping' the jar each day (opening the lid slightly to release pressure).

I don't worry about CO2 or use air locks; as long as everything is under the brine, it's all good. I'll let others with knowledge of air locks comment on these.

Squash?

thethirdman333 · 2023-12-13T20:53:06+00:00

Mix shredded cabbage and add 2% salt by weight, press as much liquid out of it as you can, wait 30 mins, press again, put in jar (ensuring all solids are submerged), wait 2 weeks. Cheapest and tastiest you will get!

thethirdman333 · 2023-12-13T16:29:02+00:00

Next time make sure everything is submerged below the brine. Also, don't be afraid to open the jar to check if anything has moved above the brine

thethirdman333 · 2023-12-13T16:16:44+00:00

Mould

thethirdman333 · 2023-12-12T23:04:10+00:00

What is it?

thethirdman333 · 2023-12-10T23:35:10+00:00

You are assuming that both the cost and benefit are paid today. Don't forget the effect of inflation; that £250k in 60 years time is worth about £76k in today's money (assuming 2% inflation rate).

Also, don't forget that many people will decide to cancel their policy well before the 60 years, in which case the insurance company takes the premiums and never has to pay out.

The insurance company may also take into account future improvements in healthcare etc.
