If Rashee Rices injury is as bad as it looked (hoping for the young man that it isn't), this is as WIDE OPEN a race to the Super Bowl that I've ever seen it. There's juggernaut players (Allen, Mahomes, Lamar), but not a clear juggernaut team. Everyone has some holes.

93 more days until you can make 2025 IRA contributions. If you've already hit your 2024 financial goals, not a bad idea to start saving excess money at month-end in an HYSA while they're still yielding more than inflation to go towards lump-sum IRA contributions on January 1.

But the internet told me everyone was canceling their Disney+ accounts?

Still fairly excited to see the final product on Thursday, but the early #JokerFolieADeux    reviews haven't been too encouraging.

Lookin like another $400-$500 month at the movies. You can't say I don't do my part to prop up the economy 😤

Paid our mortgage then sent the rest of our checking account to our kids (3) 529 accounts. We're now broke.

One of the biggest lessons I've learned in my 10 years in the real-world workforce. You can think you're going to work until 60 in your career, but you better plan to be financially free by 45-50. Whether your own burnout or ageism, your "time" will come faster than you think.

Age old advice from a married millionaire couple (late 40s with two teenagers) worth $5M on saving money and accumulating wealth:

If true, this *could* be the start of his comeback in Hollywood (he's served his time/punishment and deserves a 2nd chance). I heard from quite a few early reviews when this was originally supposed to release (Dec 2023) that his performance was award worthy.

"From the studio that brought you The Notebook... and the unhinged creators of Barbarian" is one hell of a hook for a teaser trailer. Fun, playful, tons of intrigue, and immediately attention-grabbing. #Companion looks to be one to keep an eye on for early 2025.

Bare-bones money principles: • Invest up to employer match in 401k • Max out Roth IRA annually • Invest excess cash back in 401k or taxable brokerage • 95-100% of stock portfolio in ETFs • Pay off consumer debt fast • Buy 1/2 home your mortgage lender says you can "afford"

#DeadpoolAndWolverine just doing more of what it's been doing since it's ticket pre-sales days. Breaking more records.

#JokerFolieADeux    is the first movie since Madame Web where my wife and I refunded our tickets (supposed to see it tomorrow) and will wait for streaming based on reviews. They early reviews have just been so overwhelmingly negative. With it being a 2hr+ musical, hard pass.

It's been a while since I've seen a big blockbuster lose its hype as fast as #Joker2  Budget ballooned to $200M from $60M (Joker). Box office is now expected to <$450M (Joker was $1.08B). Bad reviews and worse WOM. Joker was lightning in a bottle that WB should've let be.

#RingsOfPower season 2 was a big improvement from season 1, with Charlie Vickers (Sauron) leading the way as the seasons big highlight. From his fall from power, his deviously manipulative rise back up, and eventual brutality against the deceived, Vickers crushed the role. The

Star Wars hasn't had a movie in 5 years. Disney+ shows have been small stories with low stakes (hit and miss quality). Yet still doing insane merch #'s while leaving so much meat on the bone. If $DIS can get film/series quality back on track, it'll be a FED level money printer.

Crack cocaine.
