And ongoing risk of an endemic new virus even after a vaccine is developed. Even though we have flu vaccine, it still takes its toll every year and is probably here to stay.
I draw a big rectangle with a line down the middle. On the left is Assets. On the top right is Liabilities (aka debt, the remaining lease payments for housing, etc). On the bottom right is Equity. This is the number that must compound at an acceptable rate no matter what happens to the market, my income, etc (I'll leave it up to you to decide what rate you want to commit to in the near term). I have found that drawing and redrawing this on paper beats most software approaches. If someone asks, "what if my equity number is negative?" I say take steps to get it to positive. If you get it to 1 dollar, great, your first year ROE is going to be 1000% if you happen to save 10 bucks that year. https://awwapp.com/b/uybcpyttt/
Seems like it would be a good exercise to clone the repo and build the script yourself. Then you could even submit a pull request to put the script in the repo.
@jedberg nailed this while I was waiting for my HN rate limit to cool off. @jonbarker, yes, this is intentionally a bare-bones alpha, we are hoping to move into this sort of direction based on feedback from the community.
The reason is that arguably a traditional search firm is a broker, whereas an aggregator can introduce new efficiencies. This is how disintermediation typically happens. Classic example: travel agents vs expedia.

Which 30 year period you get to live and work in is what matters most, and the timing of the bad years. Which is why I recommend this calculator: https://firecalc.com/.
I’ve heard this sentiment before, but I don’t see why one would expect a toy company with decades of expertise in toy design, manufacturing, and plastic chemistry to invent a multiplayer computer game. It’s more like expecting Kodak to invent Photoshop.
Also, computer and video games haven’t exactly done to the toy market what digital photography did to the film market.
Actually, the Lego group might have been in a great position to create a multiplayer computer game. They have been running games on their website for years, and even had a massively multiplayer game for a bit. The failure of their own multiplayer game was due to poor management, and not listening to user feedback. Also, they were pretty greedy with their pricing model. It was more expensive than other games at the time.
I enjoyed this article but I find the people rejected by Harvard more interesting than the ones who dropped out. Warren Buffett is on this list. The people who dropped out after all always had an implicit invitation to come back if things didn't work out.
