This will be my pinned tweet, and is simply an exercise in gratitude. No form or rules; I will tweet about things I am grateful for and keep them here so that I can look back on them from time to time.
@philbak1 I just modified my 401K into what is an objectively mediocre portfolio. But I can handle mediocre; I don’t think I could mentally handle being a bagholder for billionaires gaming the index system.
Good luck, everybody.
@Biohazard3737 It’s wild to me that AP would be within 1,000 miles of a Swatch partnership. The Moonswatch was a completely different animal; this is like offering a plastic Patek.
I just filed a tax return in which my wife and I owed had a federal tax liability of $41,000.

It’s frustrating for a moment on this app when you see people intentionally acting like a trash.

That’s when you stop feeling frustrated and start feeling sad.
@modestproposal1 One data point: My wife and I closed on our first home two days ago. I’ve never even heard of https://t.co/bDz4ZgC7QO and it never once came up in any search or conversation while we were looking for places.
