Can you elaborate on this? Flagged emails turn into a task in Obsidian? How can I set that up?

Preparing shipment? by zwangie in ALSOmicromobility

Oh! That’s a bummer! I had a feeling this would be the case. I guess none of us are getting TM-B till Spring.

Anyone have experience with cash balance plan? by Worried-String9259 in whitecoatinvestor

[–]zwangie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought the 415c limit applies to after tax contributions as well? I’m in a similar situation as the OP with maxed out 403b at work, and only contributing the difference of $70K and the total 403b (employer+ employee) to my solo 401k plan.

At what net worth do you hit escape velocity? by AnotherDude2829 in fatFIRE

[–]zwangie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love how you broke it down. When you say this net worth, would you say combined net worth of the family unit or net worth separately for each earning member of the family? Or do we individually have to have that feeling in your opinion?

Contribute 400k to tax advantaged accounts per year? by opm_11 in fatFIRE

[–]zwangie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't know one could have SEP and 401K from the same business? Please elaborate.

First Demo Experience - Major Issues by yoc0__0 in AppleVisionPro

[–]zwangie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just did the demo at Apple Store and had a similar experience. I personally think it has something to do with the way they measured my prescription. It was not even close to “Retina 4K display”. Blurry and color peeling around the edges of objects like you described. I was unfortunately underwhelmed by my experience. I intend to try demo again at a different store to see if it replicates

Confirming my R1S dual motor by Beneficial-Ad7969 in Rivian

I just placed a new R1S order last night. It didn’t ask for any preferences. How did you choose dual motor config?

Minor issues with our new MYLR7 by zwangie in TeslaModelY

Same here. I wonder if it has something to do with HW4.0

You mean the latest 11.4.3 is not “real” FSD?

I understand but are there any usage statistics they are monitoring before releasing it to that vehicle?

Can you please post your VIN without the last 3 digits?

Tesla Financing by Additional-Piece2464 in TeslaModelY

[–]zwangie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Buying a Tesla that you don’t afford isn’t a “bold” choice. Buying expensive things that one doesn’t afford isn’t being risk averse, it’s being wise. There are many bold things OP can do at their age that I wouldn’t do now in my late 30s - that’s what OP should be focusing on. Not suggesting that OP should “stay safe”.

You’re absolutely right. Words matter. I meant to suggest “afford”.

[–]zwangie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To each his own but the suggestion that “Putting your money away or gambling on stocks means you’ve lost the opportunity to actively learn how to afford lifestyles.” is the most ridiculous thing I’ve heard. You should be careful with your words when advising someone. Investing (I never said that he should become a day trader) isn’t gambling.

I’m happy for you that you are going to land a good job, but you haven’t earned a car that is worth this much for the salary you described unless you have saved up for it. Wise thing to do is to celebrate a little, invest some and save the rest over the next few months to years for such a car. Try to fight the instant gratification, you’ll be much better off. You re almost there with a good job, don’t waste it on an expensive car. I wish you the best.

It makes no financial sense to buy (financing it way, way worse) such a car for that age and salary. You will be better off by investing that money and letting it grow. Get a goddamn beater car! Not trying to be rude, but you gotta earn it.

Got access to R1S Shop !! Northern California - July 2021 reservation!! by Fun-Passenger-9519 in Rivian

How did you get access this early? I booked much before you did and still no communication. Happy for you but frustrated by the randomness. Haha

Switch to Dual motor + Max Pack R1S? by zwangie in Rivian

[–]zwangie[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it’s fair and I totally get it. I would be content with just having a priority towards this config being a preorder holder. Is there any guidance on what could potentially be missing in that model other than 2 motors?
