well, all these experts, over all these years, with all this money, haven't fixed anything yet. maybe their approach is wrong.

I dunno, guess I have a high IQ or something, but between the first and second wife, I somehow got in touch with a psych worker who did once a week group sessions at his house.....he was nice enough to let me fix his TV sets and other electronics in exchange for attending the group for about 3-4 months.....very strange it was based on something called 'TA' or Transactional Analysis so to find out that all the rest of the folks in the group was in some sort of personal misery or shit......one of the chicks was a MD which surprised me....I said something about my first ex and she crossed the room to give me a hug.....again, strange......at any rate I found out that I am not alone and so to say screw it, and put the shit behind me.....

because 'feelings' don't matter, reality DOES.......get the hell over it and move on......

Come on, Dab. He’s excited for his daughter and proud of her. Whether you agree or not, shitting all over his thread is a total bitch move.

Jeff - I look forward to the pics. Be proud.

I get the impression from your "I retired early" harangue your overriding concern is your financial well being have I got right? Now that you've retired early have you considered a second career in financial planning?

Lurch's daughter has chosen a career which will hopefully help people and make their lives a bit better. Her contribution to society will be a hell of a lot more long lasting than your pointless engineering calculations and my crummy welds.

Thank goodness no one listens to you. If they did, we've have no mental health professionals and most likely no doctors due to the exorbitant cost of the education required to perform those jobs.

Now if I were you I'd go check my savings account after reading this post. The market may have changed.

It is 10 hours ahead there so Viber messages and phone calls will come really late at night. Ya, like when we are sleeping.
Eryn is staying at an Air B&B for $30 a night and it includes breakfast.
What a great deal.
Her first breakfast there.

Of all the things that she could have sent a pic of, the first pic was of food.
It's monsoon season there and it is raining. The long term forecast is rain and 82~° for the foreseeable future.
Oh well. Get to work !

I'd recommend that your daughter not do any spelunking while there.
