Hi there, early 30's small serial entrepreneur here. I have my own methods of investing i've found along my short journey so far in life... and I'm curious if there are older and wiser folks out there.

The reason I posted this in the entrepreneur reddit is because most of my family are corporate climbers and literally none of them know how to invest outside of the stock market in one way or another.

Not looking for anything less than a 25% return annually.

For example, one of my better performing investments is an Airbnb. It effortlessly yields extremely far beyond a 25% annual ROI, though most would "classify" it as a risky investment, from a finance perspective.

Curious if people are open to sharing these things, places, and things or if they are gate-kept secrets.

Not looking for these answers:

- individual stocks
- crypto
- gambling

Thanks!

Is someone still at the DEN airport today?

We just took off on our flight to Phoenix, directly from DEN. Flight AA1757 at a scheduled 12:15pm departure time.

My wife left her iPhone in a public bathroom near gate C32. Naturally, we realized she had left the phone as the plane was taking off. Someone answered her phone and said she'd bring it to gate C32.

Can someone PLEASE go check for my wife's iPhone?

I don't have experience with lost and found. If someone gets ahold of this iPhone of ours, please let me know and I can reimburse you for shipping it back to us in Phoenix.

Thanks in advance and I hope someone finds it

UPDATE: Cell phone found. Lost and found received it and is shipping it to our home on 7/21, within 24 hours of losing it

We are getting our pool build in ground as we speak.

Wife and I are realizing we might want to change the waterline tile on our pool before they order materials... but don't want to upset our pool salesman with a change right now.

Anyways. If we don't make this change.... how much would it roughly cost to have the waterline 6" tile removed and replaced with different tile, say 1-2 years from now?

Less than $3,000? Just curious

My family has found themselves in a complicated situation.

My grandparents are quickly approaching 90 years old. They can't move around well, they are rapidly aging, and my grandmother refuses support. Grandpa welcomes it. The grandparents live in a handicap friendly single story home. And they've both fallen several times and injured themselves, and grandma keeps holding strong to the "everything is fine, we don't need help" mantra.

Grandma draws hard lines and has turned from kind to mean. Refuses all of our recommendations such as an in house cna and refuses the idea of a nursing / assisted living home. And because she's also the same age, and since she isn't adequately taking care of grandpa who is in worse condition, it's starting to look like elder abuse on my grandpa. He's not getting properly care for.

My only other sibling is a failure to launch and uses "caring for the elders" as his reason for why he's 35 and still living in the basement, unemployed, single, and addicted to video games.. gaming 10+ hours per day. I feel he's part of this aging grandparent's problem because he enables them. He goes over and helps when they call him literally 9 times or more per day. And by him helping them, they don't realize how dependent they are and how much help they need.

My older sibling needs to grow up, live his own life, manage his depression, and move forward, but his mantra is basically "I'll do that tomorrow". And tomorrow has never come - shocker.

My family wants to find a way to get the elders into assisted living. My grandma, and this is the world's largest euphemism, digs her heels in the ground and says no. The refusal of help has put my parents in a bind.

My parents are newly retired and are genuinely fearful they will die before my grandparents pass away. My grandmother's resistance for medical support in her final years occasionally appears to be stronger than my parent's will to live due to the stress this has put on their shoulders

How does one set boundaries here and move forward with an extremely disagreeable grandma who shuts down every idea of support?

How do we kick my sibling out of the basement before he turns 40?
