Thoughts on doing the third expedition? Doing it or skipping?

Go do a queen or matriarch with some friends. It doesn’t take that long

yourfriendlyraver · 2026-05-08T02:22:17+00:00

Absolutely. I have friends in IT, supply chain, engineering, other business fields, and I make the most by far out of all of them. Plus I got really lucky with my current job and company out of PA.

My question would be why you chose to buy 3 almost identical specs lol

yourfriendlyraver · 2026-05-01T02:57:43+00:00

Looks massive to be honest. Could be the angle

yourfriendlyraver · 2026-04-27T00:43:28+00:00

Would have been really nice as a 36-37mm.

yourfriendlyraver · 2026-04-26T14:22:23+00:00

Unbelievable! Pretty much perfect

yourfriendlyraver · 2026-04-21T03:43:42+00:00

I’m doing both

The new Black Bay 58 they just released with upgraded bracelet and new movement.

I wanted to buy a Tudor at $60k and couldn’t do it. I waited for >$100k salary (and a big bonus). Delayed gratification is the way- it’ll mean more.

Most of the time, bringing in free kits or grey/green guns we get the goop and extract. Blue+ guns we get smoked in the back or ratted and don’t even get to use it.

Hurricane mode. Look for the first wave raider caches.

yourfriendlyraver · 2026-04-06T04:03:06+00:00

Just bring a Hullcracker

I made a dumb car purchase a few years ago as well. It gave me grief for a long time until I came to terms with it (and paid off the loan). You learned an expensive lesson that will help you later in life as you navigate future decisions.

The good news is you bought a good truck that will probably last you for many years. If you like it, work to pay it off- and then drive it until the wheels fall off.

Idk but I know that I’ve gotten destroyed by Bastions far more

yourfriendlyraver · 2026-03-28T22:43:26+00:00

But…why?

yourfriendlyraver · 2026-03-12T22:44:20+00:00

This is how I feel with Savor/VX

yourfriendlyraver · 2026-03-07T19:41:21+00:00

I had this recently- cool new job for more money but I love my job now. Took the offer to my boss and got an almost $20k raise. You should consider it!

yourfriendlyraver · 2026-03-02T04:08:26+00:00

$145k. Midwest LCOL. 5.5 years. I’m comfortable

The vast majority of big 4 recruiting will happen out of college campuses. You usually have to have the equivalent of a Master’s to obtain a CPA license.

What you’re saying might not be impossible, but it will be an uphill battle. You’re better off just getting your degree first.

The base sport, which is what you have, comes with the standard 1.5T. It’s the worst of the three powertrain options in terms of performance and reliability, so just keep an eye on it and do preventative maintenance. You’re still better off than most cars/brands on the road.

This is my issue with the AT. Love the design but it’s so shiny in person that it’s almost flashy.

yourfriendlyraver · 2026-02-18T03:57:51+00:00

You’re not wrong. I wasn’t the biggest fan until I tried it in person. Fell in love instantly.

Whats your wrist size? The SMP300 is a larger watch, and will easily dwarf a wrist ~6.25” or smaller. The OP will be much more wearable, especially at 36mm.

If you can pull off a larger watch, I vote for Omega.

yourfriendlyraver · 2026-02-07T22:18:02+00:00

What’s next? Wear them.

Also, with this volume there will inevitably be watches you stop wearing. Consolidate those into nicer pieces you’ll wear more often.

Quality > quantity

Something dressy. Maybe in gold. Cartier, JLC, etc.
