Ah government. Where would we be without our wise and benevolent guides.

Hope you feel better!

I don’t really have the entrepreneurial spirit. Plan a is to stay working here at the plant for another 19 years until I put my 30 in. Barring that well I make it a point of not burning bridges with former employers on the way out. If I have to I could go back to being a rodman on a survey crew. For my sister this time instead of my old man. Inside jobs with climate control done spoilt me though so that’s really a last option.

Ain’t that the truth.

Awesome I’m thinking about upgrading my commo from the 1950s.

Love my M1 carbine. Its also a crowd favorite with friends and family who haven’t been to the range in decades or in a couple of cases ever.

My favorite topic. That’s a good looking shotgun to.

I’ve got bitcoin. Got land as well. Part owner of about 50 acres scattered around the state. The other owners are my parents and siblings. Well. We own the LLC that owns the land. We don’t rent any of it at present. Most of it is growing trees. My portfolio is probably to heavily concentrated on land but then again I didn’t have to buy any of it so I’m not looking a gift horse in the mouth. Even if the property tax on the lake front half acre with a dock, one and half story garage just big enough for a kitchen, bathroom, my dad’s boat and bed upstairs is damn near what my parents paid for the land 30 years ago.

Usually for a month or two until I shave once and start over again.

Yeah. Things are crazy here. Partially inflation and partially that the number of people in the area has gone wayyyy up over the past 20 years. All the land surveyors I know have new clients on a couple of months wait list.

Same. I could do it if I worked a lot of overtime and lived on ramen noodles for a couple of years I guess. I definitely can’t do it and build a house in the next year or so with at least partial solar. I’ll make those trade offs to not have a whole bitcoin anytime soon.

Sweet. Almost covers both of my MSB memberships. Well one of them is mine. The other is a recurring Christmas gift to my sister and brother in law.

Awesome. I ought to be home from the store and cooking pork chops and bacon to eat all weekend.

That’s a bold strategy with what the compliance rate would be. I did six years in the reserves and I’ve lived my whole life in a state with one of the highest rates of military service as a percentage of its population and I wouldn’t go if they told me I had to. I know a lot of people who wouldn’t.

Yes. We don’t hear about it all the time but yes.
