Im going to start out at 4% and see how that goes. If i need more I would feel safe at 5% easily. I am not worried about the money end of it.

I dont care if the last check I pen is a hot one.

I have all dividends, interest and uncontrolled cap gains going into cash/MM.
What ever room I have left in November of next year I will sell Apple stock to reach my MAGI point. There will not be any cap gains tax on it.

I live cheap.
Time is precious and not a given (nor are future $ returns). No one is depending on OP for income other than OP…I lean go for it, OP!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Oooh I am going for it. WHat is the worst that can happen?
Throwing people in jail for weed longer than you would a child molester is definitly a bad bad bad look that did make a big difference in Texas.

What that dipshit did down there is the craziest thing I have seen. That press conferece with the edibles killed him. Anyone that thinks that didnt make a big difference is nutts.
The OP is burnt out on his current job.

His current job isn’t the only job out there.

Take a six month to a year sabbatical, see what other employment options present themselves (part time, seasonal, whatever) and keep moving.

He said that he stands to inherit from his father; that may or may not happen. You’d need to prepare for the worst possible scenario and then hope for anything better than that.

Healthcare will be the crappiest part of the process.

Things have changed a bit sinse my origional post.
Dad gave me and my sis approx 160k that I parked in the Mondy Market to protect agains downturn in market over the next few if I like not working.
My total worth not counting house and property is right at 1 M now.

I plan to draw about 4% next year. Got to watch MAGI.
I can pay zero for Health Ins. and have 12k max out of pocket with no ded.
Or 48 a month with 5500 ded and 6800 max ofp.
Not sure what option I will take but either way it is workable.

Money is not an issue here. I think I owe it to myself to give it a shot.
Im not 100% sure i will like it all tht time. But I might.
After 21 yrs this desk everyday is killing me. IF I set here another 5 I dont think I will be able to move.
Elon probably has his webtech savant webcrawlers looking at everything.

re: OU sold its soul for money

This is the main reason the playoffs were expanded to 24 IMO.
To many money people that are used to success not going to be happly loosing 3-5 games a year.

But if they can get into the playoffs with 3-4 losses it would be an easier sell to the check writers. And it should be. Getting into the playoffs will be the standard for about 12-15 schools . Just like the NCAA basketball tournament is to basketball schools.

Not long ago Ohio State just throws in another Pro in waiting when they loose the starting QB. Now that top backup is playing somewhere make 3 mill.
My options on Healthcare are. keeping my MAGI at 35k.

50 bucks a month 5900 ded 6500 max out of pocket
102 a month 2600.00 ded 5900 max
or
0 monthy no deductable 12k max out of pocket. Pay first 12 of healthcare then totally covered afterwards. with this you dont have to really watch MAGI at all.

I went to the doc 1 time last year.
You are correct.
I think the number of normal everyday rednecks that got woke up and mobilized because of this issue is vasly understated.

DONT mess with the kids. There are so many around here that never even thougth about politics that absolutly cant stand liberal bs now.
One step closer to everyday being a Sat for me.
Gonna give it a shot.
Best thing about it to me is it should keep a bunch of players from opting out of postseason. No way you opt out if you have a chance to win it all.

And it will be great having meaning ful football games early to mid Dec.
Im all for 24. Love it. And it give teams like SC, AR, Ky ect a chance to get in on good year.
Not sure how an SEC football fan has watched SEC football this year and not say -- " I Want More". Bring me 24 team playoff, 9 game seasons and lets roll.
Will be great having playoff games in Early to Mid Dec when not much is happening.
Basketball slows down and it will be fun.
Sept 3, 2025.
Press conference with JE victims and their lawyers.
Lawyer states , with vics behind him that Trump had nothing to do with any of the vics and he was the only one that helped get JE.

That should be enough.
Nut had a better winning percentage than those at Arkansas over 10 yrs and we run him off. Fans are stupid.

re: Missouri Head Coach Frank Broyles

Broyles was never the same after the 69 Texas game. For almost 3 decades Arkansas was a top 10 program. I think we should have stayed in the old SWC where we were the second most taleted team behind TX every year.
Would still be in the SEC as they would have taken us over Missou when that deal was done.
Fans that are/were used to 10 wins a year better get used to a new reality.

Its no longer Tex and 8 patsies for OU. Same for TX.

A 10 win season will be a rare thing for those used to it.

re: Guess who is going to Paris!

Posted by Hawgleg on 10/21/26 at 8:17 am to
He went to Paris looking for answers
To questions that bothered him so
He was impressive, young and aggressive
Saving the world on his own
But the warm summer breezes
The French wines and cheeses
Put his ambition at bay
Summers and winters scattered like splinters
And four or five years slipped away
Then he went to England, played the piano
And married an actress named Kim
They had a fine life, she was a good wife
And bore him a young son named Jim
And all of the answers and all of the questions
He locked in his attic one day
'Cause he liked the quiet, clean country living
And 20 more years slipped away
Well, the war took his baby, the bombs killed his lady
And left him with only one eye
His body was battered, his world was shattered
And all he could do was just cry
While the tears were falling, he was recalling
Answers he never found
So he hopped on a freighter, skidded the ocean
And left England without a sound
Now he lives in the islands, fishes the pilin's
And drinks his green label each day
Writing his memoirs, losing his hearing
But he don't care what most people say
Through 86 years of perpetual motion
If he likes you he'll smile, then he'll say
"Jimmy, some of it's magic, some of it's tragic
But I had a good life all the way"
And he went to Paris looking for answers
To questions that bother him so
Are you sure about that?

Anyway check his record at M State and Miami. Not until he had he best 2 deep on the field di d he win big. That is a true statement.

Like Spurrier said " do it at SC or Arkansas".
Ill never forget he didnt win much when he didnt have the best 45 players on the field 90 percent of the time.
SEC basketball is going to really really fun this year. Im ready.
Man the Dem Primary Debate will be must watch TV.
Imagine her and AOC and Buttplug going at it on stage.

And maybe fat boy from IL. hahaha

There is about 50 dipshits that start this crap every week and look like fools when there are 10 of them doing it.
Wearing paper bags over there heads one week, protest, storming the feild.

A few idiots making alot of noise and the media makes it look like the masses.
