re: How much life insurance do you have?
Posted by Boss on 8/20/26 at 5:50 am to GREENHEAD22
We each have about 2.8 million. Which is right under 10x our salary.
Just do the most you can. Between annual cash bonuses I hope to out another 40-50k in vti. I need to have money to support my kiddo though when we are gone so will stick to a strict 4% draw.
We contribute about 78000 into our 401k a year with the company matches. Next year I hit 50 and will do the catchup contribution (will be in a Roth because of income). The following year my wife will turn 50 so we will be putting in 94000. Now we are way behind in contributions as a whole (we have a special needs kid and it costs a hell of a lot). But I hope by 65 we have 5 million.

The dinner scene with the the Valeryons is where I stopped. It’s just dreadful right now.

So you don’t have anything.

Episode 3 on the other hand was a complete clunker. Total filler and Ortegas and Scottie just aren’t that interesting on this show.

Do you have any relevant links to support that claim?

Do you believe the shite coming out of your mouth?

Was in NYC two weeks ago. Same as it ever was. About to be back there at the end of the month. Your friend must be a master of hyperbole.
Just do a DEXA. My local university offers InBody and DEXA for 99 bucks. The InBody comes in 2-3% points below and is not as accurate.
Since baseball salaries are guaranteed make all compensation be spread evenly over life of contract. If the player retires or gets cut the cap accelerates in that year.

re: Is your total portfolio making more $ than you are?

100%. My dad is 77. Still working. He loves it. Says it keeps his mind sharp. Also doesn’t hurt to be the boss.
If it’s worth anything it will get bought. Big Pharma acts like PE now, gobbling up smaller biotech.

At a 4% draw I’d need to have 12.5 million in investable assets. Not there yet. But won’t need that salary when I retire.
The US spends about 6 trillion on goods and 14 trillion on services. If you tax both the you could have 15% tax and be ok. If you just tax goods then it need to be almost 50%.
I’d be all for 15% tax. My tax bill would go way down.

Consumption tax. Then everyone pays - illegals, people who work under the table, drug dealers, etc. Exempt food and medicine so nobody can legitimately say you're screwing poors.
Consumption tax would need to be 30%+. Does that apply to houses as well? Your 500k house now costs 650k.
re: Any experiences with Cortisone shot success for Herniated Disc/Sciatica
Posted by Boss on 7/24/26 at 8:44 pm to burger bearcat
I have same. Did cortisone, epidurals, you name it. Went to neurosurgeons and orthos. Have gone to PT. Only thing that has helped is dry needling. It’s a game changer. Gives me relief for weeks at a time. I refuse to get surgery. I know too many that have and they are never the same.
Yes. It was time and I don’t blame teachers for moving on. The pension is nice but it isn’t a big enough carrot.
re: When did classroom Amazon and Target registries become a thing for teachers?
Posted by Boss on 7/24/26 at 8:24 am to TexasTiger08
The take that teachers go to professional development to learn the latest from Pearson or Scholastic is laughable. Like I said, only the idiots do that. Or learn about AVID. Give me a fricking break. The best teachers close their doors and teach. They don’t jump through hoops identifying how students learn best. Yada yada.
