I agree. What I'm pointing at is that it's sufficiently similar that it's unfair to do the same to a man.

Women can wear condoms and/or get Tubal ligation. And yet Men have 100% liability the moment it leaves our body, potentially including in cases of paternity fraud.

It's often funny to me how there will be such a massive gnashing of teeth about whether or not something is prescription or OTC available to women, when Men essentially have no contraceptive choice and have 100% liability the moment it

Also keep in mind that across time there has been inflation eating away the value of that. $5K in 1999 is far more valuable than $5K today. So the price is actually much much lower today (in terms of a basket of goods you exchange for those

Progress will _only_ be made with sufficient stimulus, and your body will rapidly adapt so the stimulus is not sufficient -- unless you do progressive overload (and ideally occasional deloads too)

Yes, of course a single exceptional exception makes it true. The reason that works for a world class athelete is because they're extremely careful and persistent to periodize and have progressive overload. Unless the commenter is an eq

Here's one that I came up with. Little science, but it's worked wonders on me. Simply do 5 sets of 5 reps of the following exercises in groups. Do 2-3x per week as your schedule allows. You can super set the push/pull exercis

Variety can make the difference in motivation. If that's what you lack, then so be it. But it's detrimental to a progressive/scienctific-like approach to lifting. We want to know that over time we're getting progressive

The challenge is separating the two oft intertwined thoughts of what's financially optimal, and what is lifestyle desirable. We often use an argument in one area to justify a poor choice in another. It's fine to make a financially

Btw this a fallacy/bad accounting that many home owners fall into. Most say $550K sale price minus $400K purchase price == $150K profit. But you need to remove: Taxes, maintenance, cost of your time (if you value that at all), realtors

If you're delivering more value than they pay you, why would they? They're literally profiting by keeping you, and losing by not. Sure they could marginally employ another person for even more profit, but save for network effects

IMO the real value of a high leverage mortgage is that you can buy sooner. Saving even 20% ($100k) could take many people 5 years. so saving 60% would take 15. Part of the trade off is life momentum. We can't be spending 15 years with

To give an illustrative idea of your point -- I typically leave my AC at 75f during daylight (when it's 100f ambient), but turn it down to 70 to sleep (when it's 85-90f ambient). So it's possible I'm actually ACing more
