Yeah agree, I think it's really about personal risk tolerance. I do agree 5 years is a while, but it's also easy to say that right now based on the last 5 years. It's not terribly …

Depends on how soon you are planning to buy. The usual rule of thumb for a big purchase (house, car, etc) is that if you’re planning on it occurring in 3-5 years, put money in a sa…

Usually people save money in a savings account.

It is interesting they only support 64gb and then jump to 128gb. It seems like a money play since it's $1,000 to upgrade for 128, and if you're running something that needs more th…

I have a 14" M1 Max with 32gb of ram for work, and it does that popping noise every once it a while too! I've always wondered what was causing it.

Why… well, it’s a sport where you compete to lift the most weight. The other competition lift is the clean and jerk. For my old ass I do it because it’s so hard and the rest of my …

Same thing with Olympic weightlifting. This is a very common phrase in my gym. Snatching has got to be the most humbling barbell movement ever. Dudes who can easily bench over 100 …

It was about table saws, not circular saws. There’s a big difference between the two. Table saw accidents often result in losing fingers and it’s not that difficult to mess up whil…

Happy to see YNAB mentioned. I actually had no idea they used to have a desktop app! I’m a happy subscriber though and to me its yearly cost is easily made up by how much money I s…

I believe it's only five months of health insurance since it says "Five months of benefit continuation". It does also say "Continued access to Modern Health through the end of 2024…

I was referring to the capital gains tax you pay for selling BTC on an exchange. I was thinking specifically about Roth IRAs, where any gains are tax free, but a 401k or similar wo…

Indeed I was, thanks for clarifying.

But then I have to pay taxes on it. Time to full send my retirement accounts into these ETFs so I can retire early. /s Actually though I might consider allocating a tiny percentage…

Haven't heard this take before. What are your thoughts on high frequency trading shops and the regular stock market?

Interesting, thanks. I didn't find that mentioned anywhere on their site. That does seem decently affordable.

What do you mean by roaming here? Assuming it's data, the big 3 are not affordable in my opinion. Version and AT&T each charge $10 per day for international data, and T-Mobile's ch…

Really sorry for your loss. My dad died of cancer about 20 years ago when I was pretty young. It has gotten easier over the years, but still, sometimes it feels like grief punches …
