    GLP-1 diabetes/weight loss drugs

    If it's an Eli Lilly drug you may be able to get it directly from them through their online portal. It's my understanding that people who place their scripts with Lilly through their patient direct program are not experiencing shortages for Zep and Mounjaro. I don't take these drugs, so this is...

    Returning to full-time (government) work, mainly to get insurance

    You have $3.6M in a month or 2. You don't need to wait for 59.5 (if you need access to $ now you can 72t - SEPP). If this new job prospect has so many negatives for you, you might consider finding something else that appears fun, and/or interesting. Your posts relay dread about this new job...

    My Recent Calcium CT Scan

    My cardiologist pops a statin daily. Says most of his colleagues do, too - including those like him who have no indication of cardiovascular disease (his choice, I'm not advocating for every healthy person to take statins). He says he knows it's a lifesaver. Flattens/shrinks plaque - smooths out...

    Suze Orman - You need 20M to retire early

    This from the self aggrandizing financial advice expert who also shared years ago that she had led a fake life driving very expensive cars, carried mucho debt, and was a status signaler (reformed - ha!). Old or new news from Suze is likely not worth anyone's time. No I did not click nor read the...

    Benefits of Former employer 401k, New Employer 401k, or Rollover?

    I have a similar story, although it involves "just" poor decision making on the part of my previous (nonprofit) employer. They switched from a great Fido 401 to a lame insurance company administered 401 based on a slick presentation by a FA and a few free lunches he spread around... they even...

    My mothers favorite - Isle Royale. She backpacked it many times in her 50s & 60s, sleeping in first come first served screened basecamps on the island. There is 1 lodge. Less than 26,000 visitors/year.

    your first year after FIRE: income lost?

    DH was a high earner. I encouraged him to walk away at 49/50 because he was fried. I do care that we left alot on the table.... but not more than I value him. His mental health is much more important to me than $. Yes our assets would be several $M more today if he'd stayed in his corporate...

    Thoughts on moving to 55plus community

    My vocabulary for the amazing, vibrant lifelong friendships that we've had the pleasure of building in 2 55+ communities includes positive, happy descriptors. We love 55+ for the myriad of activities, + the friendships we're growing. The social opportunities are everywhere here. We feel...

    New Weight Loss/Obesity Drugs Could Transform Economy

    Chemicals. Developed, manufactured & used in the last generation. I don't recall a single post here about chemicals, so I'm throwing chemicals in the mix. Our waterways, air, soil and bodies are exposed to more man made chemicals than ever. The WHO recognizes pollution as a contributing factor...
