/biz/ - Business & Finance

Hard day at work and I came home to some divorce papers. Misses left for her parents. Thank god for a prenup. Not my fault I cheated on her, sex was terrible. I'll just keep buying the red days and stacking those dividends.

Another day. Another day of "Ah WW3 is on, run for your bunkers!".. Honestly I did nothing this afternoon. Ho hum. They pay me to do "nothing". I've got a very stress free life.

Bought nothing, sold nothing. Worked during the morning. Dozed during the afternoon. Now we're getting ready to eat a pizzahut pizza for dinner.

Hmm I get paid tomorrow. The market is dumping tomorrow. Cheap shares back in vogue the day I get paid. Also happens to be one of the days I'm in charge at the office, so you know I do "nothing". Fate?. Someone "up there" giving me a nudge? Who knows..

Enjoy the time you got on this spinning ball of dirt and rock. Money won't bring you happiness but it damn sure will make your life easier as the decades pass. Real non bullshit thing for today. (Seen the effects of Cancer and Covid related happenings and frankly I wouldn't wish it on anyone;nor would I wish someone to spend the final days in the hospital with tubes and whatnot going everywhere; seen that to)

Fun times for me next week. I get to put on my Manager hat at work for part of it. (Boss is on vacation). So I'm in charge. Normally I do "nothing" for 8hrs even when he's there. Now I can do "nothing" with total impunity..Who's gonna stop me?. (Nah, seriously I do work, and I make sure things are done, just I don't give two shats once things are all finished)

Kek, checked my pension cause honestly I haven't bothered before. Site has handy calculator that shows what you'd get if you retired on regular date (standard) or you can input your own date (max benefits). Figure it spat out on max date very easy covers 100% of my monthly expenses with green left over.. Pension is fixing to get another bump next year to. Reason I put in the max date is due to the fact yeah I could retire at the normal time. But I'd be leaving money on the table. Sides even with the max I'd still be under age 65 by a good clip so what the hell you know. (Figure it spat out on regular date would cover 100% expenses to but the extra would be less).

Feeling good. Next year it's all about dumping into SWPPX and dealing with "shat happens" things (aka life's little fuck you things that suck your green). All while the retirement and savings account(s) keep getting stuffed fatter. Ho hum.

Ho hum. Relaxing day as the green flows into my greedy hands as I merely sip my cherry coke on this nice 3 day weekend where I'm getting paid for today thanks to the holiday.

I'm done buying individual stocks. Content with this just rolling on with maybe the occasional dump into more SWPPX for grins. January 2023 is round the bend. With another salary bump, 401k,emergency fund, and pension hike contribution on tap for next year to. Perfect storm of events has worked in my favor (cheap stocks + salary boost in 2021,2022, and 2023)

Life can be one big old party if you plan and stick with it through the good times and when life tosses a stinky shat bag at you.

So another day is done. Another thing that's done and over with; me bagging individual stocks. I'll have hit my limit next month. All I need. Going forwards I'll toss more money into my SWPPX for shats and gaggles when the urge to blow some excess green hits me. (What? Hey better to blow it on something good than on something just dumb.). And if I don't, merely let what's there roll on it's way for 26 years, hey that's fine to. Not like I "need" the money anyway with my pension and 401k also providing me a nice retirement.
