Today’s my birthday and I’m not making dinner
Where should I get takeout from? Dining in isn’t an option. Open to all types of cuisine, ideally within 20 min of Parma but willing to ask my husband to pickup from anywhere lol

RPT has been gone for a week. Are there any alternatives that will automatically check prices of excursions and packages?
Looking at using Domain Money. Does anyone have any experience with them, good or bad? Thank you!

My husband and I use a very small room to work out together in. We both have a set of adjustable dumbbells and a bench that is sketchy. We’d like to get a new, sturdy adjustable bench. I’m not sure what incline/decline positions we’re looking for and am a bit overwhelmed by all of the options and the prices. Ideally something movable. I’d actually love something that could fold up against the wall when we’re not using it. Any recommendations? Thank you!
There was a water rescue at tuxedo park yesterday. Tuxedo park is recommended frequently for creek walking with little kids. Does anyone know what happened? I take my kids there sometimes and I’m trying to understand what waterfall they’re talking about.
I have a Renpho scale, if that matters. I have a high % body fat. I’ve been lifting weight using progressive overload for 3 months now. I feel like I look a little different, and my husband said he thinks so too, but the scale hasn’t gone down and neither has the body fat estimate. I have definitely gotten stronger and am lifting more during my workouts. I understand muscle weighs more than fat so I could see my weight staying the same, but I’m confused why body fat % hasn’t moved.
Editing to add - I’m not asking if they’re accurate at giving a correct fat percentage, I’m asking if they are able to detect changes in body composition. If I replace 30lbs of fat with 30lbs of muscle, are these scales able to see that? I weigh the same but would have much more muscle.
Has anyone used babyquip while traveling? Long story short, I’m going on a cruise and we want to do a private tour in one of the destinations. We will not be able to bring car seats with us, but I want the kids to have car seats on this tour. The tour operator does not offer car seats. I found someone on babyquip and he’s willing to do a day rental, but I’m not sure how to handle pickup/drop off. I think the easiest solution is that babyquip delivers and pickups directly from the tour operator. The tour operator said they can delivery/pickup from a local Starbucks near the cruise terminal. Is that how this usually works? Public pickup/drop off? That makes me nervous because I don’t want the seats to be misplaced or stolen, but we obviously can’t get there any earlier because of the cruise and when it’s time to go it’s time to go, whether or not the seats have been picked up. Just looking for any experience here. Thanks!
32 and my 401k is officially $401k! Just a silly milestone but it made me happy when I saw it this morning. Figured this group would appreciate it.
Has anyone done this excursion? I’m confused by the description. It says that you’ll go to Arandonga Beach, but that’s not showing on Google Maps. There’s also no description of how long you’ll be at the drive vs the beach.
I’m planning a cruise with a stop in Aruba. We’ll have our 4 year old and 20 month old. Has anyone been lately? I’m trying to decide between beaches. Seems like baby beach has the most calm water but it would like you have to pay for bathrooms and the chair rentals are outrageous. Eagle beach is another option but doesn’t seem as calm for the kids. Any insight appreciated, thanks!
Messed up the options. I swear this is the last one.
I think we’d be fine with 30x, my husband thinks 35x. I’m curious what the majority use.
I’m not entirely sure if what I’m looking for exists, but here goes nothing. My husband and I are interested in FIRE and have saved for years to get there. We’re a couple years away now that we’re in our mid 30s but I feel like we need a professional to help us with withdrawal strategies, tax strategies, etc. We’re also looking for information on setting up a family trust. We’re not wealthy enough for traditional wealth advisors - they usually require 5M or so in investments, which we don’t have. Has anyone found a professional like this in the area? West side preferred but will travel for someone great. Thanks!
Looking for excursions recommendations for Willemstad and Oranjestad. Open to cruise or third party excursions. What did you love, what would you skip, etc. Thanks!
Based on my math, my husband and I (mid 30s) are a few years out from fire (3-5 years). We started talking today about how we’d withdraw and I realized that most of our money is tied up in retirement accounts. Right now, our allocations is
Retirement 79%
Brokerage 12%
Crypto 6%
HSA 4%
My husband doesn’t want to liquidate the crypto (don’t come for me, it’s not worth getting into, I’m just mentioning it for transparency purposes), so that leaves us with retirement accounts, our brokerage, and the HSA.
Currently, we max out our 401ks, HSA, and both IRAs annually. Should we start dumping that money into brokerage accounts instead?
If it matters, 98% of our retirement accounts are Roth. Would we withdraw from those?
My son just turned 4. For the last maybe month or so, he’s been eating and bitten his fingers accidentally hard enough to scream or cry. What the heck is going on? This has happened maybe 10 times in the past month. Is it a weird growth spurt thing where he doesn’t realize how long his fingers are? I’ve never heard of this before?
Looking for a good happy hour tonight in the tremont area. I like girly drinks. Thanks!
I’m a 33 year old woman. I started lifting weights 2 months ago and am doing three or four sessions a week. I am SORE. Is that normal at this stage? I thought with regular exercise I wouldn’t be so sore still. I did squats last night and it is painful going up and down stairs. I did chest flies on Monday and my chest and arms hurt for two days. Just trying to gauge if I should be doing something to recover faster or if this is normal. Thanks!
