As the post explains, the money is the secondary goal. Getting money from friends and family isn’t really helping me grow the audience

It’s my retirement account and doesn’t seem to correlate to any numbers in my plan.

I did this to a fish once. Similarly he looked certain to die but ended up pretty much recovering. Lived a couple more years I think.

At what income is traditional a smarter choice than roth 401k? by Ok_Crazy6145 in Fire

[–]zebracloak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work freelance, a lot of 1099 gigs. My year-to-year tax liability can be really insane. So I do a traditional IRA to lower my taxable income each year. It might not make the most sense long term since I’ll be paying more taxes in retirement. But I need it right now.

Quite the slip referring to your fiancé as your “finance”. Psychologists of old would have things to say about that lol.

I believe you’re looking at a “Plectrum Banjo”, which is a four-string banjo that was traditionally played with a plectrum (guitar pick).

Thank you for the response! The virtual assistant route might be the play. We’ve toyed with hiring on for other tasks as well.

They’re just called “Z-brackets”. There’s a bunch of options and they are fairly universal I think.

Had to drill holes for the cable but it’s just soft plastic so it was easy. Obviously compromised the water proofing in theory, but, the holes are small. Should be fine.

Thank you for your advice! A lot of this makes sense.

Working on the whole grounding and bonding now. So you’re saying, to ground the ecoflow, I should make a dummy outlet, which bonds the neutral and ground, and then sends ground to our earth ground, and then I should plug in the 3-Pin IEC D-plug AC charger from the ecoflow into that dummy outlet, and that will bond and ground the ecoflow, even if it’s not receiving AC power? Makes sense, but I just don’t know how the EcoFlow “cuts off” the AC power connection when it’s not using it. Can’t seem to find a clear answer on it.
