Alocasia frydek
My frydek is pushing out a new plant. Love these but can’t seem to have more than 4 leaves at once 🤷🏻♀️

Dragon scale just keeps growing!
I’m so happy with my dragon scale. This used to be one small plant. Once I transferred to leca from soil this plant was just so happy. A second plant grew from the corms on its own and now it’s ready to throw off 3 flowers. Excuse the water droplets. These photos were taken right after a bath 🛁

Keep growing or chop and prop?
I’m so happy with the way this plant has grown over the last year. I bought a discounted (some damage to the newest leaf) 4in plant at plantcon last year. It’s getting very top heavy and I’m wondering if I should let it grow taller, maybe two more leaves (it’s supported by two treleaf trellises) or chop and prop now? It’s in an 8in leca setup, about 4ft tall and I want to avoid repotting into a larger pot. What would you do?

42F single, $5.5mm NW. Can I comfortably retire in the next year?
I work in finance and have been thinking about retiring in the next year. Live in VHCOL area and would like to move to the suburbs to have more space and reduce rent. While I generally enjoy my work, I feel like I'm not valued and treated terribly by my manager. I lost my mother to cancer last year (she was 74) and it made me really question why I continue at a job that brings so much stress. Work has always consumed my life and interrupted vacations. At my net worth (all brokerage and 401k, no debt/mortgage), I think I can comfortably retire early. Current annual spend is about $220-250k but I can see that coming down to $200-225k just from relocating to the suburbs (substantially more savings by moving to a no/low tax state). I have peers who have recently retired and have no regrets - they finally have time to read leisurely, travel, exercise, be stress free and just enjoy a slow pace of life. That sounds glorious to me and I'm not the type of person who gets FOMO. I enjoy peace and quiet.
