How long until thick?

Hey all, I've made about 20 batches of kefir from my new grains and I still haven't gotten one to be thick. I get either grainy/curdy or just thin milk. I've tried many grain:milk ratios but still nothing has worked. From what I've read here, perhaps 20 batches isn't enough for my grains to acclimate? I'm wondering how long it typically takes.

Thanks!

Looking for advice - feel trapped by PhD

Hello all, I'm 30M in USA . I got my PhD in 2023.

Since then and during the PhD, the experience has been terrible but I persevered.

Something that I am deeply struggling with is not being able to live near my family or even in a city I want to live in. I can barely find a job when I search throughout the entire country (via LinkedIn). It is causing a lot of strain on my life and I don't see a path for it to improve.

Not really sure what to do about it. I don't even feel like my salary is high enough to justify living under these conditions (I still have several random roommates and can't afford my own apartment to even have friends/family stay over).

Anyone going through this? Or found a way to solve it?

Thanks!

Moving to Live account

Hello all,

I have heard many people say that prop firms are useful for building a live account and then it is better to switch to a live account fully. My question is: how much do you all keep in your live account? When trading futures, you don't need much in your account (~$1-5k) to start making pretty decent daily profits that are more than a typical "9-5".

Do you guys keep building your live account higher and higher? Or just keep a minimum buffer in it to maintain your lifestyle?

I know this is subjective. Just looking for opinions on this. Thanks
