re: The 2 sides of traveling
Posted by TheOtherRiot on 4/14/15 at 10:51 am to Salmon
When traveling to popular sights the trick is simple, wake up early and get out early. Photographers do this not only to stay away from crowds, but the lighting is also best for photos. When I was in rome a few summers ago I made it to St. Peter's Square early enough to watch the sun rise. Not only did I get great shots and didn't have to deal with crowds, it was a friggin awesome experience. I try to do this at least once every trip I take

Pretty much stopped listening to music altogether. Talk radio has become my main source of entertainment. Seriously though... who has CD's anymore?

re: Question about Credit Utilization - New Card Holder
Posted by TheOtherRiot on 3/21/15 at 2:39 pm to kaaj24
Yeah thats what I've always thought and have been told. Recently a buddy of mine told me his credit score wasn't increasing as fast when he payed say 90% as apposed to 15-20% of his limit. He said he noticed a difference once he started using and paying off smaller percentages. That's what initially got me wondering because I've never heard that before.
think he has a capital one card w/ $500 max.

Question about Credit Utilization - New Card Holder
Posted by TheOtherRiot on 3/21/15 at 2:00 pm
Just got approved for a Discover card with a $500 limit.
First credit card, so I have no credit/credit score yet. Also have no debt or outstanding loans to pay off thankfully. I'm about to start graduate school and plan on using my card solely to build credit for when I'm finished school (4-6 yrs).
Been trying to find the optimal card utilization for my card so I can know how much to charge and payoff per month to build credit quicker. I've read most card companies prefer about 30% utilization but also heard it can vary depending on the card. Any of you money talkers who have used this card or have great credit building strategies care to shed some insight? thanks!

re: OT World Travelers...3 days in Florence..
Posted by TheOtherRiot on 3/12/15 at 11:32 am to sonicsam
Florence is a great city to just get lost in and still have a good time. There's an overlook on the outskirts of the city that gives you a great view of the landscape. There are guided tours but I'd recommend just doing it yourself. The evening would be the best time to do it. Make sure you eat a good steak and drink some lemoncello in any bar you seem interested in hanging out in. As an American, you'll appreciate how many places serve nice cuts of meat (unlike most parts of Italy). I enjoyed sitting in the squares and having a drink between 8-10 before dinner/nightlife began. Lots of good people watching. During dinner sit outside, pay a musician some cash to play music near you, you don't have to drop a lot of cash. Guaranteed good time. Have fun! :cheers:
re: 1 Rep Max Calculators for extrapolating Lifting Numbers
Posted by TheOtherRiot on 2/24/15 at 12:58 pm to Tiger Ryno
I used the ACSM formula the estimate my 1RM a couple weeks after benching a 1RM raw to compare the numbers. Gave me a perfect estimation. Put up 225 6x which ended up calculating a 265 1RM. Applied that number to a 5/3/1 routine and in a little over a month 1RM'd at 104% of my original. :dude:
