So most of you know, I took a new role at my current job which was a pay cut because I don’t get my built-in overtime working 40 hours a week. Come January we go back to shift where I will make my money back up. This will be roughly $800 a month thought about going to night shift to get shift differential which would be extra 15%. My main reason would be to pay off my Upstairs when we finished it, we used home equity line to finish it with the interest rate it’s roughly $1100 a month. My goal was to pay that off as fast as I could by paying $1000 extra on it. Then after I paid off my Upstairs, I would then put the extra thousand plus the thousand dollar payment on my actual house to pay that off. I kinda crunch numbers look like I could get everything paid off roughly around the age of 42. And that’s not being overly aggressive, but intentional. Do you think this is a good strategy always thought about being financial free and not having a house payment would be pretty fucking cool and then invest extra money into the stock market I do Work but like you said you can’t really touch it till you retire But after listening to last nights call, kinda thought about still doing that but then also investing a little bit on side to build that up early. I have a lot of thoughts so any help would be appreciated.

G - I'm pretty diversified in my portfolio and love dividend stocks - been adding to them over the years and know you're a fan of them. Was wondering your thoughts on allocations and if there were any favorite stocks that you had? I love VZ, T, SCHD, KO, SBUX. One of my goals is to get over 10k a year in dividend income by my birthday in March 2025. You've inspired me to ramp this up and keep adding to make it happen! Thank you!

Started with an idea for a product and have done work to create it, bought equipment to produce it small scale, created a brand, finalized a label and then just hit a roadblock in terms of selling. My original plan was to sell through Amazon but I haven’t started an account yet while I’ve been doing research. On the surface it looks like a very easy way to sell a product, but as I’ve been digging it looks like I would need a lot of volume to turn a profit and make it worthwhile. I know Max Effort didn’t originally start on Amazon but is there now. The other option would be to create a website and sell there but then I would have to focus on promoting, social media, etc. Just looking for opinion on the best route to go to start selling.

Obviously I created the group to get back into the get stack. The powerlifting and volume associated with the GS. Bc when you have a small group pushing each other everyone wins. But that’s just in the gym. After last nights call it really got me thinking. Dalton what do you want right now? What is my goal right now. Am I trying to compete in a power lifting meet? I’m not trying to lose weight. I’ve stayed in a solid float since I won the contest and been pushing numbers on lifts. I knew @Mike Poglese was still in the pump 30s BUT now I understand the why behind it. It’s got me thinking should I do the same. What’s your thoughts G?

I’m glad this section is here because I’m terrible at thinking of questions in the moment but after processing I usually have questions lol so my question is; I have a 2 year old son and was interested in your strategy and at what age did you start teaching your kids about finance and kind of instilling in them what hard work is and money management type of things?
