    Boeing stock takes another beating

    I bought Exxon after the Valdez disaster and cashed in big-time (I usually just leave any profits in the account and use it for other investments, etc), but for the first time ever I took most of the profit (around $8k) and used it to party in Vegas for my 40th birthday. lol I'm not sure if it...

    I ran 3 sub 60's in the Gate. Fun race, the bridge at the end sucks, but otherwise it's always a good time! And I was one of the first to the beer garden after each race!

    One of my running goals for about 3, 4 years was breaking 3 hours in the marathon - I failed 5 times going for it, then finally hit it. Pretty much every other distance, except the marathon, I felt that I had run a "perfect race" (i.e. I "didn't leave anything on the course" - gave it my all)...

    Oz was one of the most dark, brutal tv shows I've ever watched - makes you definitely not want to go to jail! lol

    Welp...

    I apologize for just now catching this. Thread titles matter - regardless of which forum we're in. Be better! (i.e. thread title has AIDS)

    I was going to dump AAPL if it hit $200, now I'm long - added a bunch over the last week.

    Dust that thing off and start using it. Even if it's only 10-15 minutes. Once you get into a routine you'll probably look forward to it (I generally watch a show ONLY on the bike - so if I want to watch that particular show I have to get on the bike). And w/ the push-ups, leg lifts - same thing...

    Beachbody has all sorts of workouts - and many of them are under 20 minutes. Doing 30 minute video workouts can become a chore, but the 20-ish minute one's (for me) have always gone by super fast, and they're usually very efficient (keeping your heart rate up the whole time).

    Man TLB - that's a tough blow, rib/ab injuries are painful AF (I've done it several times) and does take some time to feel better. This is the recumbent bike I have (I bought it in 2021 for under $300, it's gone up quit a bit) - I'd suggest finding something like this, putting it in a room...

    I'd suggest listening to a podcast or something that will entertain you while you're working out (if you go to a gym). I have a home gym and I sit on the recumbent bike and watch Netflix for 30 minutes to over an hour - I usually do this 6 or 7 days a week, only really miss it when I travel or...

    I was just f'ing w/ you - 6'3 220 is very solid. Sounds like you've done a great job dropping the weight - congrats on that! My advice is that you need to make your health a part of your lifestyle - sort of like in investing you "pay yourself first", well pay yourself (your body, your health...

    I just finished watching Marvelous Mrs. Maisel (Prime). 5 seasons, really good (surprisingly). I'd give it a solid 8/10 or better. I started watching The Affair (it's on Prime, but was a Showtime original), has 5 seasons also. Only 3 episodes in, but pretty good. Seems a little dark. Since...

    I don't pop in this forum very often - just saw this thread and skimmed through it. So to sum up, Crete was a fatty and he's not so much of a fatty anymore? Also, Coach is under 6' and 219lbs? So Coach is also a fatty? How many other fatty's do we have hanging around here?

    Eagles Farewell Tour Mar 4th Orlando

    I saw them in DC in 2013 and they were great. Saw Don Henley solo in 2015 and he sucked (he had released a new album and played the entire album and about 2 or 3 Eagles songs, plus a couple of his other solo songs). Saw Fleetwood Mac, Elton John, Phil Collins all in the 2015-2018 timeframe...

    Yes, crazy. And, for some reason, AAPL went down. I added a few shares of AAPL. I'm sitting on some brokerage cash right now - so buying dips, but I still want to hang onto a little of it to see if there's a "correction" coming up. I still think w/ the Fed toying w/ lowering interest rates...

    I sold off UEC & SE today - made a very nice profit on UEC (30% - about $500) and 12% on SE (about $200) - these were under $2000 buy-ins. I haven't done much buying and selling in the last two years - but I figured I might as well take some profit when it's there, especially in the Roth...
