    It would be like the Mario Cuomo bridge or RfK bridge. No local would ever call it that.

    @taiwan_girl said in Net Worth and pensions: @NobodySock Here are a couple that I "fool around with" https://cfiresim.com/#google_vignette https://www.firecalc.com/index.php They both seemed pretty good to me and were fun to play with. I haven't looked at them recently so dont know what (if any) updates or changes have been made. They both run many simulations based on past stock market returns. I think they call it a "Monte Carlo" Thats where the variable “discount rate” comes into play. Considering market gains, losses, and good old dependable inflation. I plugged in 4 percent and then there is the crap shoot of picking the number of years one has left to live. With monthly pensions and SS, that magical number makes all the difference in placing value to the as yet untold true pot of gold

    I'm FB friends with a guy I've known since first grade. My mother used to give him a lift home from primary school. He lives on the Isle of Rhodes, I live in Rhode Island. One of us made a better choice, I suspect. Weirdly, I ran into him at my dad's funeral, in 2014 - he was there for the preceding funeral. We still do a bit of banter from time to time.

    @jon-nyc said in Buffett retiring: Ok now I’ve seen it all. A fucking crypto boi accusing Buffett of not adding any real value to the real economy. A cryptofuck. https://x.com/cameron/status/1918870264068166008?s=46 What a maroon.

    Where is this question voiced by her that should be the only fucking question right now? "how can you consider cutting Medicaid, Medicare, SS, only to give more tax breaks to the ultra rich and the Pentagon? " She would get a little bit of respect for voicing that "sacrilege" statement to fellow Republicans.
