    Retirement Planning Thread

    I've seen Boldin advertised on YouTube ads when I am watching some of the financial advisors. It looks helpful for sure. I may actually do the one time fee for a federal employee specific retirement advisor to outline our plan (my wife, retired last year as a Fed, I am a current Fed). My...

    SpaceX

    A lot of people, including me, are hoping it turns in to a Tesla like payout for investors, although it isn’t likely to replicate those monster returns. Had you bought $5000 worth of Tesla at its IPO and held on to it the entire time that investment would be worth close to $1.9 million 16...

    SpaceX

    I bought 58 shares at $150. I wish I had more cash lying around.

    The Official US Soccer thread

    I have to be at a wedding in BFE Minnesota for the US opener, UGH!

    The Official US Soccer thread

    I saw that that was the second win over a top 15 ranked team since the coach took over(the other being against Uruguay last Fall). Prior to that the US hadn't beaten a top 15 team (outside of Mexico) since 2017! I guess that is something.

    The Official US Soccer thread

    Like an example for his toughness and hard play but he just didn't think he was talented enough? I don't get it. Roldan just isn't that good, Luna may not be any better(arguably) but he is younger.

    The Official US Soccer thread

    I have never been a fan of Roldan, he is the biggest head scratcher for me. Not really a fan of Zendejas either but he has been productive in Mexico I guess, so maybe he is just in good form right now. My confidence and excitement for this team is not very high. I don’t see the grit and...

    Retirement Planning Thread

    Its always nice to feel prepared. Much better than the alternative for sure. I use ChatGpt a lot too, I run all kinds of scenarios--down markets, good markets, making higher withdrawals earlier in retirement when I am younger and more able/willing to travel and do stuff, making steady...

    Retirement Planning Thread

    Retirement is coming closer, as I approach 2 years until eligibility (July 2028) I am becoming even more focused on having everything in order. I run constant Monte Carlo simulations for future years earnings, I use AI to calculate taxes, pension (including my COLA), SS etc. I know I often...

    Guns

    The first handgun I ever shot was a Sig, my brother in law was with DPS and that is what they carried at the time. I always liked them, I don't own one though. My recent purchase was a Colt Model 1903 "hammerless" built in 1909, the oldest handgun in my collection.

    What is an acceptable 2026 season?

    History, as bad as this team has been in AZ last year was their lowest win total ever. Just staying healthy compared to to last year gets us a couple more wins.

    Undrafted Free Agents

    Does anyone watch the UFL? I am curious if there are any players there who will get training camp invites. There have to be some diamonds in the rough that could become decent depth pieces or special teams contributors on some teams.

    Monti's Draft Grades 2026

    Drafts can't be fairly graded for 2-3 years. I don't know enough about any of these players to even begin to guess how it went. I will say this I haven't been wowed by any of his drafts or offseasons so far and history is not on his side to really deserve the benefit of the doubt.

    2026 3rd round pick 65 is Carson Beck QB

    I am not very good at the predicting game so I have no idea how it will turn out but since he is on the Cardinals I hope he turns out to be a steal. I definitely not rooting on the guy to fail.

    2026 3rd round pick 65 is Carson Beck QB

    I will say I liked him on the Gruden QB camp thing, doesn’t mean he will be a good QB but he seemed pretty open and personable unlike Diego Pavia.
