Human startup runs for like 13-24 months depending on the human. There are a few apps that can help give you an idea on where they are at developmentally, but just keep the thing fed and changed and slept. That’s it. About age 2.5-5 is when you can start to shove stuff into their brains, but before that, they just need to be fed and watered and loved.

There is nipple cream to help with the skin. And pumping to build up a milk supply and to keep milk flowing is totally normal.

Whatd you jump to?

When you get a 401k loan, it is treated as a loan, it looks like, from yourself. Only risk there is if you default, it then switches to a disbursement and has a 10% penalty and probably some sort of tax implication.

No. It’s a pretty secure savings engine. Even if you had a loan out against the account, they reserve a portion of the account as collateral, as I view it. Let me go research that right quick.

I think the biggest risk would be if your holding institution went tits up and you had more than is covered in FDIC, you would only recover the FDIC limit. I think. Anyone confirm that?

Now, a fun question there is, if there was a crash out of the holding institution, would 47’s FDIC manager pay out.

Another fun question is, if this isn’t protected by FDIC because you own the investments which are external to the holding company:: are you really holding the investments you selected? During the fervor of the GME due diligence, it was surfaced that when you buy a stock on the open markets, it is but a right to a stock, not the actual thing. So, your access to those rights could get rug pulled too, if things get too crazy and system risk becomes too high. I think that the chances of this rug pull are super low for msot investments in a 401k. Generally retirement savings plans are slow moving investment engines, so for instance, if I schedule a change in my 401k investments, it trades, not at the time of request, but at the end of day. There are also high frequency trading limits in some of them.

House of Cards is a good starting point to understand how the current stock trading machine functions.

Reflect on what each tool does. They soak up today dollars to be spent tommorow. Delayed consumption for future benefit assuming your investments are fruitful and inflation doesn’t outpace your gains.

So A) do you want to lock up your money until you are at retirement age? What consumption are you sacrificing today for the benefit tomorrow? What investments are you displacing by these stock only options.

B) when you pull money out of the traditional, it counts as income and will be taxed. Part of retirement is managing your income streams to take out as much as you need/want with as little tax impact as possible. Some retirees get social security and even though they have bank, they don’t pull much from their savings.

Is it a significant impact, probably not. But it is a future risk to delay the tax. Who knows what the tax code will be? I mean, look at how the taxes are proposed to change next year. If you have an income of less than like 360k, your taxes will increase. How many retirees are pulling more than 360k per year? They just got future fucked on their tax deferment.

Tithe to yourself either before or after taxes, the church set 10% for a reason, that is the fluff that you can give before it starts to bother.

Always maximize your matches.

If you are in a lower tax bracket now then you would be when you retire, put it into a roth. If a high bracket today then tomorrow, put it into a traditional.

High risk when you’re younger. You can try to time market ups and downs, but unless you leg back in after you’ve pulled out, you are VERY likely to miss the upswings.

If you have enough to personally invest, either swing for the fences with 0dte or invest in products you use. You probably aren’t wrong.

And remember that that first option win is free. Post your loss porn to wsb.

I know brother. My Barney themed tank was left to forever remain in stasis out there in the bits and bytes.

Anthem

No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun.

Over on the nursing subreddit, some hospitals have been subtyping flu A and as of last week, the people that posted said it was not bird flu positive, it was the other “normal” strain.

Hospitals can shutter wings and furlough staff, it is the safety net systems that will be hit hardest.

Wait. Musk has access to every address of these workers. Many have mortgages. Is this just a play to have the bank take their homes and then they are auctioned for cheap to Musk et al?

FDIC coverage was updated to $250K.

Doesn’t change the current political risks to the program though, i.e. whether or not it will actually pay out to a crashed bank’s account holders.

Magewars had a brief revival

PTA stuff. I thought I had the time, but the job changed, the kids became more maintenance, and fuck 47.

That was a little esoteric of a quote. In the movie, the British whip, I guess, is coming over for a meeting about a war committee. The British government wonk is in his 50s. He shows up to the meeting with his US counterpart and it is played by a young actor.

Another line from the movie: You know they’re all kids in Washington? It’s like Bugsy Malone, but with real guns.
