    Switching from pickup to jeep wrangler

    Ha. I just peed a little when I saw this. I will keep my money and keep growing wealth while people pay these insane prices for what statistically will be a grocery getter. I have had 2 grand cherokees. First was a 98 and now a 05. I like their capabilities but they have nothing but electric...

    Does anyone one not tune?

    Ok. I bought a used RX4 off the classifieds. Love it compared to my 20 year old bow I used a long time ago. I am getting back into it and have been shooting a few times per week since I got the setup. I am by no means good and can’t quite hit a 3” center consistently at 30 yards but I am getting...

    Youth .22 rifle

    Watching. I have a 7 year old in the first percentile. His red Ryder is way to long and a stiff trigger pull. We are going to pick up a savage rascal. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Slug hunters: Savage 212, more accurate than some of my rifles

    I got the 220 last year for illinois. Love it. I was shooting a smooth bore 12 ga for 25 years. I had no idea what I was missing. I had ejection issues at first. But I just cycled it hard a bunch and put a drop of oil on it. All better. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    How are people affording these crazy home prices?

    Many jobs require a certain population to support them. That’s why many people live in the burbs. To get as far from the crime and be in a good school district but close enough to the job. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    How are people affording these crazy home prices?

    I have been asking this for about 10 years. How does everyone my age have a house with at least 1000 sf more than me and a brand new f150 in their 3 car garage? And I am a surgeon! My guess is dual income family and living on credit. But what do I know? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Meat Mixer for Cabela's Grinder?

    Any report on these? The reviews on cabelas are devastating. Says they last less than 2 minutes before the gears shear off. Any input would be great.

    How are people affording these crazy home prices?

    I am of the mindset that you have to live somewhere so a home is a consumable just like a car more than it is an investment. If you have to move you have to move. If you want to move you want to move. But timing the market to make money on a home is a gamble. Luckily interest rates are low. I...

    Electronic In Ear Hearing Protection Recommendations

    Wore over the ear electronic muffs for years but got tired of them bc the pressure points as well as not being able to wear a hat and how bulky they are plus the batteries were expensive and big. So I went custom westone defendear. Luckily I work with audiologists and got them at cost. Not cheap...

    Do you like higher taxes? Too bad, they are coming like it or not...

    Thanks again. But I think I am missing something. 1. I read that QBI is phased out 326,600 and 2. Where is the 15.3% additional tax in your calculations? Either way a lot of taxes are paid but I agree with your post that taxes are not a good reason to not earn more. Many misconceptions on that...

    Thanks for that. For simplicity sake,, say you make 500k. You make an additional 50 k self employed on top of that. How much federal do you now owe on that 50k? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    What's your strategy...for retirement?

    This is all very interesting and not taught well. My dad is a bricklayer. My mom does what people shame now, stay at home mom if 4 kids. Not much money to say the least. When I went to medical school I was naive as they sell “diversity,” but we all know what that means. Poor white kid doesn’t...

    Sleep apnea and Backpacking

    Hmm. Haven’t had a patient tell me about their comparison to low voltage shocks :). It is turned off when you are awake otherwise it will stimulate every inspiration. It is turned on at bed time and has a delay built in to give you time to fall asleep. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Sleep apnea and Backpacking

    It could be. I ask patients if they shoot etc so I can place it closer to the sternum. I wonder if people with cardiac pacemakers could comment as those are much more common and very similar. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Do you like higher taxes? Too bad, they are coming like it or not...

    I had 1099 income for the first time last year for some consulting I did. I didn’t know at the time there is an additional 15.3%. That was an unexpected kick in the nuts. So if you are in a high tax bracket, you’re paying >50% on that money. I guess we still aren’t paying our “fair share.” So I...

    lwrc standard ar 15

    Yes. Love it. Good price for the build quality. I went this route because I shoot lefty and it has ambidextrous controls. Not sure that matters but it was my thought. I just mounted the wraith sight mark with plans to dial in for coyote killing around our farm. I don’t think I could have built...

    High priced for sale items etiquette...

    I think the original poster is actually seeking honest feedback. I read the other posts regarding the Rifle scope. If someone is new to forums like these they may not see anything ill thought about that. I have made that honest mistake in the past as well. I don’t remember the exact details but...

    Sleep apnea and Backpacking

    We have been doing it for a handful of years. We started with a trial that showed efficacy and now it has been FDA approved for a while, I believe in 2014. Nerve stimulation therapy is a great treatment for properly selected patients. There are AHI requirements. Typically between 15-65 but...
