Colorado Elk Unit 41,42,411 1st Rifle
Go for it. I second what Seeth07 indicated, so go in with low expectations and expect to hunt as hard as you can with your handicapped companion. Try to make sure your buddies are comfortable with using maps on their phone to navigate independently or in pairs. Stress the importance of... -

Wy muzzy with daughter
In addition to the muzzleloader being more of a challenge, Wyoming doesn't have muzzleloader-only seasons. Just rifle and archery, but you can use a crossbow during archery- another unique feature of Western states. I didn't understand the detail regarding your daughter's status with... -

Evaluate the ROI on Education
What about the oligarch who survived the political clashes and became known as the Architect? .... EDIT: Whoops, no, the Architect (as you probably knew) was an actual program created by the Machines and created the Matrix - not an oligarch. I started following the white rabbit, but stopped...- JAG

Evaluate the ROI on Education
I think it’s already too late to reject it. The gains, achievements, financial rewards, and overall attractiveness of AI in the present era far outweigh the ability for human race to scale back and restrain it. Everyone’s intentions for propagating their AI models are ‘good’ according to them...- JAG

That poll would have tricky parameters to define. This has everything to do with hunting (😂)- the smarter ones - us and animals) improve their odds for getting the best opportunities, best food, best breeding opportunity, happiest wives, best sanctuary, best budgets to afford access to the best...- JAG

Lots of interesting graphs here showing trends in funding for colleges: https://www.pewtrusts.org/en/research-and-analysis/issue-briefs/2019/10/two-decades-of-change-in-federal-and-state-higher-education-funding Figure 10 is interesting since it shows a lower variance in 'net tuition and fee'...- JAG

Chasing Elk - Opinions Sought
Since you have plenty of time in September, you can't hunt every year, and have the experience hunting the mountains for the species you mentioned, I suggest Wyoming. Wyoming has long archery seasons with some general units that start a rifle season the day after archery closes. With your... -

Evaluate the ROI on Education
I've seen a few comments about how the cost of college many years ago was cheap and how it paid off. Is that different today? College costs over time. For the more economically minded folks, is it fair to compare the disproportionate annual increase of college costs with the yearly inflation...- JAG

Colorado points question.
On the flip side, your chances of chasing a glory hunt where you are five or points away from getting any time soon will improve after 2028 with the draw changes. Some will disagree, because the move won't be by much. At the very least, you will go from no chance due to point creep to 'you mean... -

MALA and your money
Investment strategy now, since the OP requested input from our us/advisors. I ran through my picks and thought about trading out of those that have remained stable since the recent potus election and into those that dropped significantly since then. Here's what my plan was: Shifting funds from...- JAG

Evaluate the ROI on Education
An unfortunate consequence of the Government's reducing/eliminating funds and cancelling student loans (good for the debtors) is that the value of college education is devalued and spikes inflation (bad for everyone). This is one of the other factors driving my interest in the need to separate...- JAG

Evaluate the ROI on Education
I agree, but the majority of American college students pay full price plus interest. I'm willing to bet that the majority of people and their children on HuntTalk fit into your category (not borrowing at full price) because they have an excellent combination of purposeful intellect and hard...- JAG

MALA and your money
This is a valid point and great characterisation of how things tend to happen and how change impacts the way future events may pan out. In another thread, I observed that all the things Trump dreams of doing happened once before, but during a much longer time period: starting in 1933 when tons...- JAG

Evaluate the ROI on Education
This is a great book with lots of great points on demonstrating how to get rich without depending on an expensive degree to earn big bucks. By the time I got it, I had already developed most of my time and capital towards mutual funds and stocks. As such, I was doing well enough to continue my...- JAG

Evaluate the ROI on Education
For the guys you know, can you identify their passion(s) and reconcile whether they were chasing the money vs. something else? How do you reflect on that? When I discuss with some high school or college students and ask about their college choice/options, Major, and anything else on their...- JAG

January Inflation
FWIW, during a recent discussion, Rogan and Musk conveyed how the two-party system is flawed and that, at best, America would be better represented by at least 6-7 different parties. This wasn't necessarily posited as a solution, but to reveal that even in our politics, an abundance of interests...- JAG
