Oof. True of so many things in life, man. It’s how a lot of people spiral into obesity.

I started the cream yesterday – 3 clicks AM, 2 PM. I didn’t go full 3-3 because I want to see how my body adapts and don’t want to risk wrecking my sleep.
Observations so far:
- I had a sexual dream last night for the first time in…a really long time – and woke up horny, which never happens
- I took a melatonin + CBD to be proactive, but I slept like a baby. Praying that continues because protocol changes have historically destroyed my sleep for the first week or two

The wife is out of town, so tonight I’m gonna take some edibles and down this bad boy:
Awwwwww yeah. Any documentary or docu-series recommendations? Considering the new season of Last Chance U.

Been watching. Pretty good.
Especially if you’re gonna eat some edibles: Samsara.
Sound up, lights off. Enjoy the fucking ride bro.
How would you say it stacks up with the previous seasons? I’m a former college coach so I love the athletic culture stuff…but the same old story can get old.
I’ve only seen the newest season, but it good.
This looks nuts! Is there any story or narration to it? Or just mind-blowing film?
Zero narration - it’s just a couple hours of mind-popping film and musical score. It experiments with perspective shift.

I haven’t, but I’ll try to find it. If it’s basically saying we’re turning kids into zombie drug addicts at the age of like 7 for the sake of making them act how we want them to… I agree.
Some days though… I’ve been about ready to hide some adderal in her breakfast or something, haha. It can be a lot. She’s also super, super loud so that makes it worse feeling sometimes.
Anyways. On to edibles and desserts!

I almost threw up trying to eat all of this last night. I probably got 2/3 of it down – or, 400ish calories – and felt sick. It’s like Greg says…it’d be really damn hard to get fat on his plan.
EAT LOW CALORIE, DENSE FOODS!

I’ve learned a lot about health and fitness from this forum. A lot of incredibly bright guys gather here. Grateful for you.
My new area of fascination is finance and building wealth, particularly wealth of time and lifestyle design. I want to be recreationally employed.
Any recommended forums?
Boggle heads is one I used to originally read, it’s mostly focused on vanguard index funds. ChooseFI on Facebook is a group with a lot of similar people more looking to be financially independent. If you search for FIRE or ChooseFI on Facebook/google/Reddit you should find some others. I mostly read the Facebook group these days, things started to get repetitive between all the different sites. Reddit also has some sections with the same names that are pretty good.
Sorry that’s pretty non specific but I browse a lot of different ones

Not a forum, but I’ve heard “The Millionaire Next Door” is a must read. It is on my list, but haven’t gotten to it yet.
Yessir, it’s a classic! Definitely get on that

100%. That and some basic spreadsheets I did like 8-10 years ago made me realize how much savings can add up to with enough time and compound interest and down the rabbit hole I went.
I didn’t know what the whole FI or FIRE thing was until I met my wife. I was pretty surprised to find someone that was the same as me on finances.
And most people acting like they have money just have a lot of debt. It’s the American way

Book recommendation: The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry
Badly needed wisdom for type A, balls to the wall, chronically stressed-out folks like me. Up there with Digital Minimalism as the best works I’ve read on the subject.
We already talked about Mr. Money Mustache, but I got so much out of his blog, it is worth mentioning that his forums still get a good amount of traffic, even though he does not post much himself anymore.
I would say much of my financial success is due to Mr. Money Mustache. I am trying to be in a position that I choose to go to work, not have to.
Biggest thing IMO, is set up investments to be automatic. Adjust your lifestyle to work on your income after investment money is taken out, and don’t pull money from investments for non-investment things. Then see how high you can set up the automatic withdrawal. Eventually you will be living pay check to pay check, while your accounts snow ball into huge sums.
