    Evaluate the ROI on Education

    It comes with headaches and risk, but running a “crew”, be it trades, professionals, medical, etc. takes the $ to a whole new level.

    March Madness 2025 General Chat

    If my Red Raiders win out I still have a chance! They are the biggest underdogs of the Elite 8. If you told me that they would beat Arkansas shooting 25% from 3 point, their stud guard having more turnovers than points and their 5th starter Walton who is starting in place of Chance McMillan...

    Agreed. The mid major team with a deep experienced core group of players that have been playing together for 4 years is what made most of the Cinderella teams of the past. Those player just don't get overlooked anymore and after a good year are snapped up in the portal for more NIL money...

    Evaluate the ROI on Education

    I wouldn't have put teachers in that list? Of course we all know that Google knows everything. (And being a millionaire is a pretty low bar now according the the HuntTalk poll from a year or so ago).

    Evaluate the ROI on Education

    Some of the trade school costs are pretty expensive. Welding, Diesel Mechanic, etc. For sure not "free". Agree that the $156,000 for 4 years of college at a state school is high. Around here you could go to a 2 year associates type college for a very reasonable cost that tracks directly with...

    Don't let an accident become a tragedy

    When you hear the statistics about hunting accidents it doesn't sound like it happens very often. When you talk to people who are actively involved in hunting it seems like nearly everyone has someone that they personally know/knew that has been involved with an accident/tragedy. When I was...

    Which of the big 3 in Colorado to keep going after?

    The $101.54 Adult Nonresident Small Game license is a bit of a jump over the $1.50 Youth Nonresident Small Game license to apply. I've been spending the $188.86 on an Adult Nonresident Turkey license but haven't been having much luck at Turkey so not sure he needs to be getting a Turkey license...

    Which of the big 3 in Colorado to keep going after?

    Not really. Several states have youth opportunities for cow elk and he never was interested in that. Female mountain goat is close enough to a male he might be interested in that.

    Which of the big 3 in Colorado to keep going after?

    I had forgot about just applying without buying the extra point. That might be the way to go. I might let him pick 1 species for me to buy him a point as a gift. He has 6 points for everything right now. That gets him a tiny chance at the big 3. Just $9 per chance if you don't buy the point.

    Which of the big 3 in Colorado to keep going after?

    Well, my son has just turned 18 so we are having to have some serious discussions about which states and species he wants to keep applying for. Points for the big 3 in Colorado is going up to $100 each from the $0 we have been paying. I've been applying for him in pretty much every Western...

    Colorado deer suggestions?

    I'm sitting on 13 points and still chasing the early rifle tag I thought I was going to draw about 6 years ago.

    March Madness 2025 General Chat

    Very surprised to be in contention after the first 2 rounds are over. Of course having the hometown team winning it all leaves me pretty much on an island from here out. Unless Arkansas wins it all, I don't think anyone has that picked. Lack of top seeds being upset is what kept my bracket as...

    Roth vs. Trad IRA Benefits - even from converting LATE?! (like 70 y/o late)

    This is something that can easily be overlooked even for people that don't have a lot of money in retirement accounts. My wife's mother passed away and we had been helping her financially for the last several years. My wife was helping her with her finances and just told me that she had some...

    Roth vs. Trad IRA Benefits - even from converting LATE?! (like 70 y/o late)

    It is very common for people as they hit retirement to do Roth conversions. It's almost all about the tax rate. Use the tax brackets to your advantage. So many people miss out on having income taxed at low tax rates. One of my co-workers husband is a farmer and they had a terrible year...

    Corner crossing the 10th ruling

    Reading through the judgment that was linked above they pretty much said it was okay in 2020 when the hunters said that they grabbed the T Posts and swung around to stay off the ground since the T Posts were interfering with their ability to jump over at the true corner. I think it is going to...

    Social security by the numbers

    Again, argue that employers should be contributing more into 401k plans. Argue that employers should not require as much of a match. Argue that at termination employees are required to put any 401k amounts into an IRA and can't spend it on a boat. I agree with a lot of what you guys are...
