Make sure to etch your foil with how to rig up solar cells for power.

So anything discovered further is ‘fruit of the poisonous tree’ and no longer admissible as evidence. But since it wasn’t ‘wrong’ at the time it was done it is admissible?

Is that correct?

Yea, but let’s say you have a spouse and kids. You probably aren’t going to the theater by yourself. Now you’re buying 60+ in tickets, and probably 40+ in popcorn/soda if you have kids there.

That being said, you could go on a discounted day and tell the family no snacks/soda. Then you’re looking at 40ish bucks for a family of 4.

It has “returned to the mean” as far back as we can look. It doesn’t mean a special year, but as best we can see, it will eventually return to that mean.

It actually matters less to people just starting. At that point it’s more about the number of stocks you buy than the value of them. The value matters later when you have a ton and your contributions are tiny compared to the actual swings.

They are, but what’s affecting people now is the concern.

Say you’ve been investing for the past 10 years. You put in 5k a year. 5 years ago you had 33k saved after interest. You kept contributing, and a few weeks ago you would have 105k. With the drops in the mark the last week, you suddenly have 95k. You lost 10 grand, which will take you two years to put back in. Not to mention we’re expecting a major drop today, you might lose another 10k in a few days. That is what gets people panicking and selling.

The reality is they haven’t lost anything unless they get out of the market. They still have the same number of stocks, and the value of those stocks only really matters when you sell them.

Most people are losing more than 5000. In the US, stocks and bonds are a big part of most people’s retirement. So people in the 50-60 range average 400k+ in the market. Meaning this last week they have lost roughly 40k.

Over 30 years with the ups and downs it averages 10-12% a year. So while this year will probably be bad, next year or the year after will probably be exceptionally good.

You shouldn’t be invested that heavily in stocks at that age though.

While I agree, I have seen TSA working at the bus station.

I think it will get easier after a few weeks. The mind is like a muscle, it will adapt to how hard you push it after awhile.

'I don’t know what you heard about me

But a felon can’t get silence outta me

No hypocrite, no coup, you can’t see

That I’m representative P-I-M-P’

That’s incredible, what a relief. Happy for you all! Enjoy

For reference 159 pounds would be where you start to cross into an ‘unhealthy’ BMI. However, while BMI is a good gauge for normal/sedintary people, it isn’t a great measure if you’re quite muscular. So I would try to stay under 160 unless you’ve been building miserable consistently for 1-2 years. And even then, if you are trying to optimize health, no need to go much over, even 160 being swole. However if your primary goal is not health but strength, you’ll need to be ‘obese’. Which is still healthier than being thin and out of shape, but not ‘optimal’ for long term health. The reason I say this is, everyone has an opinion on what’s best, but it really depends on what you’re trying to optimize for.

Just commenting here so you see it,

130 pounds is pretty low for a man your height. Considering you’ve never really worked out, do some body weight workouts on YouTube, or but some dumbbells and do the same. Start with 20 pounds and but heavier as you need.

You lose weight with diet, not exercise, but that’s not what you need.

Dead snow 2. First one was so bad it was good, the second one was actually incredibly.

That sounds horrible. I hope you’re doing much better these days.

Do you really think people will buy it? I’ve played most of the GTAs, but I’m not about to spend 100 dollars on a video game.

Sorry, I was hoping for a reason to be optimistic…

Are you hopeful in the “I wish this to happen” sense? Or the “I have reason to believe it’s happening” sense?
