You can withdraw from your 401k at either 59.5 or 55 depending on circumstances, you don’t need to wait until 65. There’s also rule 72(t) to withdraw even earlier if necessary. I would recommend 401k investing to the max as part 3. In some circumstances even the 10% penalty is better than investing in taxable, but…

1) Tax rates change and are currently at historical lows. They could go up.

I didn’t realize they were changing them, but they were definitely different last time we got it. Reminded me of Smashburger fries, but the BK comparison fits as well. My kid ate a couple and then told me I could have the rest. I thought maybe it was just a bad batch and not a completely different fry. When you can’t…

It might be if there weren’t so many other people who complained about it.  I added my thoughts for another explanation to the OP as to why it’s bad.  You added your thoughts to be a dick because someone disagreed with you.

People accept this design with ammo because it has been a design with ammo for a very long time and in a very large amount of games. If ammo was almost always infinite and a game changed that, people would be annoyed.  Even if ammo is executed somewhat poorly, people have been long trained to accept ammo as a…

“both big- and low-budget video games”

*Reads headline saying to do this instead, then reads byline*: It’s butter, don’t need to read further.  Actually reading the headline was probably superfluous to coming to that conclusion.

So how much do these chips normally cost in a console?  They’re increasing by 20%, but is it normally a $1 component, a $5 component, or a $50 component?  It’s a piece of a piece of a console, so even $50 seems high, but that would equate to a $10 increase in cost.  Neither console manufacturer would increase the cost…

No, you are wrong.

Yes if 12.9% of the vaccinated population was black, it would be 55% of the black population that was vaccinated. That would mean they’re represented equally among both the vaccinated population and the total population, so they would have the same vaccinated percentage as the total population. Because they are less…

Sure, but that’s two whole different sets of data than what they worked with.  Going by individual voter would be better still.  You work with the data you have.

No, white people are more vaccinated as a proportion. If black people are 12.9% of the total population, they should be 12.9% of those vaccinated to be an average demographic. They are only 7.9% so that means they’re vaccinated at only 61.2% of what is expected.

Agreed that those afraid of the vaccine should stay home.

It would likely roughly mirror the Biden/Trump split.  Those states went Biden.  You could also take out the LA dem governor to better reflect that the state is pretty red, if you wanted to show a sharper contrast between the parties.

The dataset is also unclear. The article says data as of 8/18/20 and the table says 8/19/20. If this is really 2020 data it’s useless. Is this daily averaged data since 2020? Is it the 7 day average as of 8/18/21 or 8/19/21?  Is it a one-day snapshot of one of those dates?  Or is it just laughably out of date data?

White Texans are vaccinated at higher rates than Black Texans according to the listed data. The 2020 census doesn’t seem to be available in detail yet but this source uses the 2010 census and 2012-2016 American Community Survey. https://statisticalatlas.com/state/Texas/Race-and-Ethnicity

I’m guessing he means 2008 and 2020. The 2020 crash was back to pre-crash levels in a few months. In both cases as long as you didn’t lose your job or pull your money out you’re doing great now. Trying to get my yourst big boy job in 08/09 was kinda rough though.

People have been saying the market is on the cusp of collapsing for years. If it crashes 20% it’ll be at numbers that it was at 9 months ago. 40% it’ll match 19 months ago.

The researchers didn’t come to the conclusion that it’s the same viral load. They used a proxy to measure it and it’s unclear if that means the viral load is the same. But also being vaccinated means you’re less likely to get it anyway, so even if you were right you’re still coming to the wrong conclusion.

You did.  First bolding is mine: “Your total household debt―including your property expenses―shouldn’t exceed more than 36 percent”
