When retired you can pay utilities & grocery bills with your regular IRA or 401K payments.

HSA doesn’t allow that, has to be medical.

Both are great ways to save, but one has requirements for what & how it can be used.

Those gains are taxed though, so you pay 15% or more when you withdraw. HSA and Roth, not at all.

Roundabouts are lovely...Add light rail, bicycle lanes, & decent buses (depending on what all you need based on city size) & now we're cooking with fish grease!

Let's add some high speed rail while we're at it...that way legislation doesn't make all our old 4x4s, hot rods, & bikes illegal

@Brillovol...thoughts?

I know Nashville definitely needs more empty bike lanes….

It's crazy to me that you think working a job is the only way to physically and mentally stimulate your body and mind.

JCVol is 100% right for 60% of folks. All they’ve known their entire life is to get up and go work hard to support their family and many of them are completely lost without that responsibility / routine. As crazy as it may sound, it can be easier for some folks to just sit around than to learn a new life without a job.

Categorically false claim but I like the entrepreneurial mindset

How? Most millionaires in this country have or do own a business. And the number is even more substantial for multi millionaires and billionaires. If you want the easiest return and quickest path to making money, buy or build businesses to sell. I had a client sell his company after ten years for over 30 million and he built it from nothing. Where can you get that return from maxing a 401k?

Best, biggest, most influential family trees in the entertainment industry?


Jmo,

1) Coppolas

2) Jacksons

3) Esteveses/Sheens

4) Wayans

5) Skarsgaards


Some musical families I might include if more multi-generational, longer branches.

I mean it is right there for him. Gator fan:

"Urban is an idiot. Of course we can afford to fire this loser. Amazed Stricklin is sitting on his **** and going to let this guy call more plays against TX!! What planet am I on?"

If you could afford to hire the loser, then why hasn't it been done? It's really simple. It does not take a genius.

I've been trying to figure out today what the purpose was of Urban coming out and saying that Florida doesn't have the money to fire Napier, if they were just going to pull against the idea the next day. Most of the media today has been disputing the idea they don't have the money. Did Urban say something he wasn't supposed to say? Or did he say it JUST so it could be pulled against today to reassure Gator fans that the money is there?

I hear you. Bike lanes alone won't fix decades of poor urban design...It takes a systemic approach and often politicians would rather take 'the easy approach' to add more lanes (ergo causing induced demand) than fix things via complex methods that require long time which don't reap immediate re-election benefits.

Anyhow, I saw a neat video about the Nashville cluster w/ 40, 65, & 24.

It was frustrating but still fun back in the '00s and '10s driving east or westbound through Nashville & having to bob & weave from one side of the road to the other to stay on 40. I moved away and can't imagine doing that regularly now with the massive population growth. The last few times I've been through Nashville have rivaled Atlanta.

I maybe in the minority, but I dont want to fully retire. Your brain and body need the mental/physical stimulates, like the old saying goes: “use what you got or lose what you got.” it’s no coincidence that most people mentally and physically go downhill after they retire.

Exactly why many get into golf, pickleball, etc - (physical) and many volunteers and local politicians are retirees - (mental/social).

Many ways to keep fresh, feel useful, and motivated, especially giving back. I look forward to it (not that there's anything wrong with simply working for a company, if it does it for you, then go for it).

First you learn. Then you earn. Lastly, you return. If nothing else, I'd be fine playing chess in a New York park, being the grumpy old codger, and hustling youngsters 😅

I go to this whiskey bar about once a week on Tuesdays and have made friends with this guy who turned 90 this year. He still volunteers at a hospice down the street to keep sharp. I maintain that you've gotta have SOMETHING to do.
