30-35%. To me all this depends on if you need the player some of them like Puka are generational and worth the bid they’ll go high in the first few weeks anyway.

Weekly contests up and running!

'Git Some!!



Here's what I've wished for:

I wish Republicans had done what they promised. They had the White House, the House and the Senate, yet a lot of the agenda still didn’t get done. At some point, “the Democrats might win” can’t be the answer to every criticism. Republicans had control and should be judged on what they actually accomplished with it.

Trump has a documented record of major promises that were never fulfilled. Among others, making Mexico pay for the border wall, repealing and replacing Obamacare, eliminating the federal debt, releasing his tax returns. More recently, the proposed $5,000 DOGE dividend that was never issued and later promised roughly $2,000 tariff-dividend checks, which also have not been paid. The announced $5,000 “Trump dividend” is not yet a broken promise because it is conditional on future election results and would require congressional approval.

But like the other promises, it ain't happening.

Exactly. Let's see people try those moves. Think they can do the Kangaroo?

This is exactly why you deal with threats before they become unstoppable. Weakness invites chaos. Strength keeps America safe.

Just the first example that came to mind. But if you ever get in that spot now you can justify to the wife why you buy all these speakers!! You’ll have all that money!

Draft Kings! Week 1!

Whut??? Week 1 is almost here??



You mean the NFL season is about to start? That's right.

The first NFL regular-season game of 2026 is:

Wednesday, September 9, 2026 — New England Patriots at Seattle Seahawks
• 7:20 PM Central / 8:20 PM Eastern
• NBC / Peacock
• At Seattle’s Lumen Field
• It’s a rematch of Super Bowl LX, which Seattle won.

You got speakers for that truck to you still gotta pay for? A pool? Oh my that costs money. Still payin' off that trip to 30A?

Well, you know what that means! Time to grab that bag. Make that money. We got a contest starting tomorrow night. 'Git some!!!

I don't trust Vance at all. An ingratiaing opportunist. His history is especially difficult to dismiss as one old quote: his criticism occurred repeatedly across interviews, writing, social media and private communications in 2016. The Atlantic even republished his “cultural heroin” essay in July 2026 because the contrast with his current position had become so notable.

Trump Jr.? LMAO. That is hard to compare seriously with most of this list.

Of that list, I guess I'd have to go for Rubio. He at least has an extensive record in government: Florida House speaker, 14 years in the U.S. Senate, presidential candidate in 2016 and now Secretary of State. Whether someone agrees with him politically or not, there is a substantial governing and foreign-policy record to evaluate.
I’m not opposed to data centers. I use the internet constantly and use AI tools like ChatGPT regularly, so I understand that all of this requires real infrastructure somewhere.

My concern is more about how and where they’re built. If a data center is going to consume enormous amounts of electricity and water, receive tax incentives, and put additional demands on local infrastructure, then the community should know exactly what it’s getting in return.

I’d want transparency on power and water requirements, who pays for any needed infrastructure upgrades, noise and location impacts, permanent jobs created after construction, and the actual tax benefit to the community.

So I’m not NIMBY just because it’s a data center. I just don’t think “we need data centers” should automatically mean communities should accept any deal placed in front of them.

Can’t you read!! The things that poor guy has to put up with!

At 45, even with a pretty healthy retirement balance, I probably wouldn’t completely stop contributing. I’d at least keep getting the full employer match and continue funding tax-advantaged accounts.

But there absolutely is a point where you can ease off the gas. If you already have enough invested that reasonable growth should get you to your retirement target by 60, then spending some of that extra cash on travel, family, hobbies, etc. makes sense. You don’t get your 40s and 50s back.

The number isn’t really $800K or $1M—it depends on what you expect to spend in retirement, Social Security/pension income, debt, and when you want to quit working.

It's a good problem to have! :cheers:
