  • I think it’s worth pointing out that “net worth” ≠ “liquid holdings” (money available to spend on a good visa). I remember the first time I spoke to a financial advisor and he told me that they (UBS) had calculated our net worth at a little over $850k even though our savings were ~$10k and our monthly burn rate was just about 100% of our earnings. Their fuzzy math is ludicrous.

    EDIT: All Donnie’s plan would do is instantly halve the value of the dollar.




  • Ideapads are trash. I only recommend Thinkpads because they are their business line. I especially like their X1 series. I also recommend buying their new old stock because you get a good deal and you can buy their excellent extended warranty service. Two years in my screen went dark. First they replaced the MB and when that didn’t work, I got a brand new screen. No charge and I basically have a brand new system.
