It is not necessary to have children to recognize that parenthood isn't a cure for unhappiness.

Not all decent people have or want children.

Are you lost? This is a community for those who are childfree.

I do not have specific advice for finding an advisor. I didn't reach FIRE suddenly, and built up my knowledge over time. Early on it was a combination of Peter Lynch, Robert Kiyosaki (I wouldn't recommend taking Kiyosaki too seriously, though), Mr Money Mustache, and a book that I recall was titled Living Without a Salary, but that may not be correct. I didn't follow exactly the advice in that last book, as it called for investing in Treasury notes. Now it's inertia plus the *fire subreddits. I use Vanguard, but as a self-directed investor.

For parking cash, have you considered credit unions instead of banks?

This is my favorite music from the game.

If you truly can't move, then you need evidence (backed up somewhere, too) and competent legal advice. It's better if this evidence-gathering is surreptitious, so they won't perform "better" during the recording.

P.S. In your jurisdiction, is it illegal to smoke near children? If it is, a tip to child protective services might be appropriate.

I'd like it Visual Voicemail would keep working when Phone applies updates.

I played WoW for sixteen years. Finally had enough of the subscription grind, the associated FOMO, and the constant resetting of all gear progression with each expansion. Took a year off of MMOs and then picked up GW2.

BTW, GW2 doesn't have weekly downtime like WoW does.

If you don't have some form of MFA setup, add that, too.

Hand and finger sizes vary. Perceptions will differ.

To get this release, you'd have to be in the beta program, which is entirely optional.

My 6a runs A15 QPR1 without issue. I really like having the 80% charge limiter.

You need an adviser who won't take you for a ride.

You're going to have substantial capital gains taxes this year.

If it were me, and in a taxable account, I'd put it in a mix of VT and BNDW after making sure I could cover taxes.
