Yeah, my former company has had what I'd call one really lackluster year in the last 5, and I was also in the ESPP, but not through the 401k. My company didn't offer their ESPP as a 401K option. Instead they just did two buys a year at the lowest price from either the first or last day, then...

Make no mistake... most of that is that company I recently left and their stock. Meaning it's mostly that as it was vesting and piling up I was lazy/hadn't thought about it until just recently, but then the company stock has just gone fucking nuts this year so I guess so far (assuming I get...

@Cad threw a post over in, of all places, the middle east politics thread about how the market has been doing well, which made me do a quick "What's my performance YTD" Interesting highlights... Crypto -- Down almost 30%, harvested some losses, fuck ETH, moved everything to BTC to see if I...

No penalties. I did it in the past, and since I just changed employers I'm about to do it again. There's a tiny bit of hassle, but if you're combining 401ks into the one at your current employer the the 401k provider usually offers assistance. (At my new gig they literally call it "Rollover...

So, update on my little rant from Mid July (TLDR : I hit the burnout wall combined with organizational frustration with my employer, had to take PTO to try to recalibrate). Warning, I'm going to say some things that will definitely be "first world problems" here, so I apologize to any who are...

I have a Dream Router and have pretty much loved it. A few quirks and learning curve, but that's specific to me. For years I have worked for a, let's just say, very large cybersecurity vendor. And part of that is that I've had a small enterprise class firewall protecting my home network...

Yeah, there are a few services around that can handle it and deliver refill service for me in Dallas. But I also need to acquire the tanks themselves. My little metalcasting hobby can run through a lot of gas when I really get into things.

I mentioned up earlier the testing I originally did with the "big umbrella" approach. It notably reduced the temp of air coming out on the inside. From an engineering standpoint it would probably be explained by reducing the ambient outdoor coil temp means the compressor gets more compression...

That reminds me..... I need to acquire me a couple of those nicer sized ProPain tanks myself. One for generator standby, and one for my metal casting area for furnace. And yeah, there's a ton of conflicting opinion. So I just decided it wasn't THAT complicated and ran my own testing. In my...

I just need to get this person to come start posting here so I can stop being the middle of a poster centipede of WTF videos...

I think the real take away of this chart is... This bull market is behaving in line with other bull markets. As you mentioned the unknown variable is how long this bull will run, and I would like to subscribe to the newsletter of whoever can predict that and prove out why. This is actually an...
