    Has anyone changed careers post 40 years old?

    I switched in my late 20's from ******** to tech so this may not be relevant to you, but there's a couple mental frameworks and techniques that helped me break into an industry with no experience nor formal education. These ideas mostly come from the guy who runs iwillteachyoutoberich.com, but I...

    You're the Commissioner. Now Fix Wrestling!

    Make the refs verbally shout out "stall one, stall two, stall three" before awarding a stall. Also, get rid of stalls while riding on the ground. If the guy on bottom can't get to his feet then he can wait until the end of the period.

    *** Official #24 IOWA STATE vs #20 BYU Game(Day) Thread ***

    BYU is the worst matchup for us. We want to double everything in the post which leaves shooters open if all 5 can shoot. Most college teams can't make us pay for it, but BYU can.

    Retirement Targets

    Raising the SS cap may actually lower the amount of money going into SS because people making above $160,000 a year would just register an S Corp, negotiate job offers to be Corp to Corp, and pay themselves "reasonable compensation" as w2 income and take the rest as a distribution that bypasses...

    You could just add him as an authorized user on one or more of your cards. But if you want to get him his own card I'd go with Citi double cash.

    Credit Cards

    Capital One Venture X is undoubtedly the best value for a premium card. I've had the Chase Sapphire Reserve and Amex Platinum in the past, but they never made it to year two because without a signup bonus they're way too expensive. Venture X is basically free if you remember to book one...

    UPDATE: Tennis Team going to the Elite 8

    I think the players mostly call their own stuff about a ball being on the line or not, and an overrule is when an ump overrules the player call.

    NCAA Top 16 Reveal

    To be in Des Moines, we are only behind Baylor right now, but I imagine they'd bump Baylor since the extra distance doesn't really make it any closer for Baylor fans: Baylor -> Des Moines 722 Baylor -> Columbus 981 ISU -> Des Moines 30 ISU -> Columbus 573 https://nothinglike.net/

    According to the Net and strict adherence to rank + closest distance, we're now behind Marquette and Baylor for Des Moines. However, they're both within 25 miles of their next closest site after Des Moines, so I'd bet they get moved so that ISU gets Des Moines. Marquette 308 to DSM / 332 to...
