I'm in a similar situation. I've found that taking CoQ10 and NAD+ (e.g. Niagen or Elysium Basis) has been helpful.

I've been expecting this ever since I test drove a Tesla last year and got the same feeling I got back in 2008 when I saw an iPhone 3G. The market isn't betting on just another car company but on. car + energy (electricity instead

Love your detailed and carefully thought out post, I learnt a lot from it (I didn't know that Mazda was just $9 billion). However I think it is wrong to compare Tesla with BMW. I am of the opinion that it is better to compare it with A

That's a good point. It is easy to just say that the others were incompetent without knowing the rate of false positives ie. how frequently were such memos written talking about catastrophes. The issue of rate of false positives vs tru

One thing I've never understood about the US system is why do the doctors charge more for paying cash e.g. $200 for a visit, whereas insurance reimburses them less than half e.g. $80. In everything else e.g. car repairs, the cash price
