    Retirement Targets

    They are great. Brian is a CPA and financial advisor, which seems ideal. Kind of eliminates the concern I have about wasting money on someone who doesn’t know what they’re doing (which candidly seems to be a majority of financial advisors). Speaking of, working with/choosing an advisor is...

    Retirement Targets

    It may never be an issue…wouldn’t be if you never sold at a loss…but I would like to point out that if you are buying VTI or similar in both your retirement accounts and the taxable account, you’re in a wash sale situation if you opt to sell taxable account shares for a loss. Probably only a...

    Severe Geomagnetic Storm Watch (and maybe big Northern Lights show)

    Not getting anything of note here in the Urbandale area tonight.

    Help! I'm Fat - *** Official Exercise and Weight Thread ***

    I see where it can go that way. I don’t like when people are anti-vax or are pushing supplements for everything, but I also find traditional medicine to be woefully one size fits none and far too reliant on pharmaceuticals. I should perhaps point out that my wife is a registered dietitian...

    Help! I'm Fat - *** Official Exercise and Weight Thread ***

    MDs are generally good at helping if you want to keep from dying…or if you require surgery. I actually also like my personal physician a lot, but in general they seem quite poor at helping you have better quality of life and looking for underlying problems. If you feel bad and go to them, they...

    Help! I'm Fat - *** Official Exercise and Weight Thread ***

    Was just going to post that I think people would be shocked at how much better and stronger they feel after getting fixed by a chiropractor. I can absolutely tell when something gets off and I need an adjustment. I start dragging and my workouts get tougher/less intense. Was literally just...

    Retirement Targets

    The more I think about it, a good CPA may be way more valuable than a financial advisor. Financial advisors rarely seem intelligent or brave enough to dive into tax planning. That said, in limited attempts, I’ve had a tough time finding a CPA that wants more business (kind of the opposite of...

    When do you think you will buy a 100% pure electric vehicle?

    I love it. Theoretically they could do most of their long hauls during the night. If they could do deliveries during the night as well, that could greatly reduce traffic congestion.

    When do you think you will buy a 100% pure electric vehicle?

    I actually think it may reduce it. The options that self-driving cars open up are almost mind-boggling if you think about it. Especially if you combine it with a logistics/mass transit mindset. People no longer need garages or driveways, you greatly reduce the need for parking, and you could...

    John Calipari to Arkansas

    Think I would have reached out to Brian Dutcher. I get that Pope is younger and has ties to Kentucky, but I think they’re going to regret this hire.

    Looks like Drew is staying at Baylor.

    UCONN vs Purdue Championship Thread

    Literally the exact same situation/thoughts here. I think I’m done. Really hoped this was going to be a fun game to watch too.

    Time for a Real Discussion About Caitlin Clark

    Yeah, I only watched their game against UConn (saw maybe 20 seconds today). I actually was impressed that game. She definitely has skill. Her defense isn’t great, but her ball-handling, passing, and shooting skills were pretty elite. For the most part her teammates weren’t close to being as...
