@0xdavecryps She lived through the greatest time in human history to invest money and build a retirement income outside of SS. I have 0 sympathy. She could have put 20 dollars a week into an index fund and become a multimillionaire. If she started in 1970 she would have 3.5 million today
The amount of people who dont understand taxes is crazy. They arent taking 10% of 13k theyre taking 10% of every dollar you earn past 12k. That is true of people making 300k. Its incremental
@ryanhallyall As a pilot and given the temperature was -47 c im almost certain it was tail icing. That would cause the attitude (nose up/down control) to be unrecoverable. Icing happens fast in those conditions, tail icing is very hard to notice and a tail stall due to icing is unrecoverable
Buddy this is america. Private equity would buy up fire departments and charge you 500 grand upfront to save your family from a fire because whatre you going to do? Not pay it?
Why have I bought into the Muskonomy? This is why. At 9pm on a Friday night I got in my wife’s car to pick up her Target order. I made it one house down before the car started throwing flat tire warnings. I pulled over and sure enough. It was flat. I very slowly drove it right back into our driveway, hopped out, and filed a claim through the Tesla app with my Tesla insurance. Within minutes a tow truck was dispatched to pick the car up and take it to the nearest Tesla service center. Since they’re open Saturday’s, the car will be ready for pickup tomorrow with a repaired or new tire. On any other car this would be a nightmare. Trying to find a tire shop over Saturday and Sunday, make sure my tire is in stock, pay a towing company to come get it… it would consume the weekend. Not with my @tesla though. A few taps of the screen and all I have to do it pick it up at the end. Wow.
