Just found this savings bond that my Grandpa Flattery bought for me a few months after I was born. Looks like he bought it for $25, and after 30 years of ~2.4% semiannual compounding growth, it's now worth ~$104. Harvest 1992 must have been great for central Iowa farmers!

Made my debut in positively impacting US birth rate statistics at the end of 2023. Feels good to know my wife and I contributed to the team’s relative success in gaining a spot at the top of this chart that @elonmusk retweeted.

Our Uber driver just rolled down his window to yell “go f yourself” at another car and then turned around and complimented me for squeaking my daughters toy giraffe with a “super sic beat” along to the Lil Wayne song he was playing. #BostonNice

My wife picked up this Mother Cabrini jersey card at church last weekend. Can’t find it in my @beckettcollect price guide. Any way to authenticate it @PSAcard @Topps @PaniniAmerica

100% a Major Issue in Math Education

“Taking” Algebra ≠ Knowing Algebra

“Taking” algebra leads to “Math is difficult and boring. I never use it in my real life.”

#mathEd #education #algebra

[Jordan Ellenberg @JSEllenberg]

I think 8th graders should be able to take algebra if they want to. But I also think which year students take algebra is a tiny issue in math ed compared to whether students who’ve taken algebra know algebra.

@sincerestflatt Yes, I got to choose a year before so beat him to @TimFlattery and Joe Mauer’s #7! Not sure what @NeilFlattery’s intentions were with #17 but at the time we probably both thought @PatNeshek was a future Hall of Famer too.

In my middle school days, before online security was a big thing, my passwords for all of my accounts (MSN, iTunes, early Facebook, my personal school account, etc) were either joemauer7 or johansantana57. Thanks for keeping my accounts safe guys!

She's not going to be happy when she learns to read and sees this bill in her name, but good parenting means not spoiling your kids.

I complain a lot about crazy high rent in Denver but guess I should just be thankful I’m not a baby forced into living the first couple days of life in a 300 sq ft hospital room at over $5k per day… #blessed #gratitude #healthcare

The Messenger got a highly talented paperboy for an affordable price without having to cut pay for fellow paper carriers. The residents in my neighborhood received consistently on-time, high quality delivery for 10 years. I had my first 2 years of college paid for. #WinWinWin

[Anthony Flattery @anthonyflattery]

This reminds me of my newspaper carrier deal with @FDMessengerNews back in the day. I agreed to a salary of ~$7/day (below true market value of my newspaper delivery talent) for the first 8 years and deferred a much higher value tuition scholarship to Iowa Central until year 9.

[Jeff Passan @JeffPassan]

Shohei Ohtani's $700 million contract calls for him to be paid only $2 million a year for the next 10 seasons, with $680 million deferred until the end of the deal, sources confirm to ESPN.

The CBT hit on the contract is going to be around $46 million, a huge discount for L.A.

@JonFlattery @X @YaoMing Just genuinely interested in public opinion around the commonly debated question. Not specific to Julie and I at all - unsure why you’d think that.

[Anthony Flattery @anthonyflattery]

Need some input from my social media followers regarding this age-old argument:

True or False? A married man can have his @X profile picture be a photo of himself with a life-size, cardboard cutout of @YaoMing and still love his wife.

Planned a surprise Dumb and Dumber themed trip for my wife this past weekend. Watched the movie, got a Big Gulp from @7eleven, and drove (she refused to take a scooter) up to Aspen. Romance is not dead. Sometimes it’s ok to spoil your partner. #RelationshipAdvice #Marriage

@neilflattery Didn’t realize it at first look but he really does. This pic has strong “@robgob7 riding in a kids bike trailer to Dollar Tree with us” vibes that I didn’t recognize until now.

FYI for all of my followers who don’t follow basketball, my neighbor in Denver just won an NBA championship. #NBAFinals #Jokic

[Anthony Flattery @anthonyflattery]

@sincerestflatt Probably! Have been lucky to have a lot of championship parades in Denver since I moved here!
