    What vehicle do you drive?

    I love the autobahn. I hit 280km/h last time I was there and I remember some bmw 80s rusting shitbox lada looking car flying by me like I was parked. On that huge straightaway downhill south of Frankfurt I think. I felt like the car was gonna fly apart and kill me at any second, great fun...

    Retirement... (i.e. what are you going to be after you've grown up)

    I’d say step 3 and 6 are skipped if you act optimally and 4 should be higher in some circumstances, especially if you want to retire early or comfortably. Lastly, step 2 shouldn’t apply to any “good debt”, which id say is probably house, car with value, and low percent student loans. Before I...

    Retirement... (i.e. what are you going to be after you've grown up)

    I dunno what his advice is. Is it something like 20% to 401k, invest in S&P500? That's what I recommend to financially illiterate relatives. It's simple and always works (so far). A lot of people think they can do better than that...most of those people are ultimately wrong.

    Retirement... (i.e. what are you going to be after you've grown up)

    I keep all my spare money invested. I could liquidate 300k tomorrow if I wanted. But I have never once had an emergency that required me to pull anything. Closest was when my dog decided to eat a towel whole for no reason and then die after 13k. Just worked some OT and blasted the balance before...

    The thing that triggered me the most was going to a seamstress in a third world shithole. I'm not much of a clothes guy, but the absolute insanely good quality of fabric there blew anything I've seen in a store in the past 30 years in america out of the fucking water. It's enraging to know some...

    Retirement... (i.e. what are you going to be after you've grown up)

    All the financial people talk about having an emergency fund, which is cash you let rot in a bank for some unknown reason? To me they are all retarded. I keep 1000$ in the bank, so I don't fall victim to arbitrage. It floats up and down some, but 6 months of cash? Eat a dick lmao.

    My escrow is about 5k. 11k is enough to cover bills and pizza rolls imo. Of course I’d want to do more, my only really big money waster is travel, but if I can’t I just won’t, problem solved.

    Retirement... (i.e. what are you going to be after you've grown up)

    Thats sounds like a perfectly fine amount to live modestly off of to me. I’d have to pay off my mortgage to make it work, but I have the money to do that. I don’t have any expensive habits that I feel the need to do.

    Retirement... (i.e. what are you going to be after you've grown up)

    It baffles me how many people are paycheck to paycheck on six figure or near to salaries. I could still easily survive on 8$ an hour, I just feel like they never truly had to struggle in their lives.

    You guys ever drink powerade?

    Depends on where I am. At home I drink mostly water. At work I use crystal light packets frequently because the water just don't taste as good. There's also a free gatorade truck that drives around where I work, so I wave that down when I see it, cause why not. Sometimes I decide to get a soda...

    Every plane that comes in from India to my airport is about half super elderly indians. It's almost comical to see over a 100 wheelchairs line up to go through customs with every flight. There's 2 flights a day at my airport, so I'd soft estimate around 100k elderly indians come into the US per...

    Retirement... (i.e. what are you going to be after you've grown up)

    Like 2/3rds of people are paycheck to paycheck, and all of those people are saving probably near nothing or actively building debt. That’s just crazy to me. And I am pretty much the same way with most things. My dad was an incredible miser, we wasted nothing ever. I was not allowed to walk past...

    You do realize that rice has always had arsenic, right? This is one of the reasons I don’t eat brown rice. Brown rice is just white rice with extra calories and a lot more arsenic.

    Retirement... (i.e. what are you going to be after you've grown up)

    My plan was to retire at 50. I wrote it up about 8 years ago. House will be paid off when I'm 52, but honestly there's exactly 0 reason to expedite that. My original plan was save 30k+match per year until about 750k and then move to 5%+7k to max IRA while building up to 250k in non 401k/roth...

    Washing rice was a lot more important historically, when milling techniques were inferior and you were left with more of the shell. I still always do it just to clean the rice. Notably changing the starch content of rice takes a much, much more thorough washing than what people typically do...

    QT’s breakfast pizza is on point. For their dinner pizza, imo the pepperoni is the best. Did you try the meat pizza? For some reason the meat and bacon breaks up the cheese so they always taste a bit dry. The pepperoni one forms a solid layer to keep that sauce in.

    When I’ve been in the Indian Ocean area I’ve literally had women walk up to me on a beach and ask if I want to buy their daughter.
