If you imagine your younger self, what fear or belief might have kept you from recognizing your demisexuality sooner?
reddit.comWhat was the first moment you realized your attraction was tied to emotional closeness, not instant spark?
Title self explanatory
Were you a goth in adolescence?
33 M here. I always wondered why I 'ended up' demi sexual I am wondering if there could be some relation between what i used to like and listen during adolescence and my sexuality.
I was a nightwish fan... could it be that I internalized all that 'cheesiness'??? (Not saying that demisexuality is cheesy ok... actually that is not the best word but is what I was able to find now)
Sempre fui daqueles devs que sempre tinha um projeto paralelo, criando um produto com ideia de vender e tal.
No paralelo fui crescendo na carteira. Hoje em dia trabalho pra gringa com um ótimo salário. Relativamente estavel.
Recentemente tenho focado mais na minha vida, ao invés de ficar 12h por dia no PC (trabalho + projeto paralelo).
Mas volta e meia me pergunto: será que deveria estar tentando construir um SaSS (hoje dia dia tenho pessoas interessadas a entrar em uma empreitada dessa comigo) mas sinceramente nao me sinto tao motivado mais. Em partes pelo "comodismo" que estou no meu atual trampo. E sempre me faço a seguinte pergunta: se eu focar só no trampo e usar meu tempo livre pra curtir minha vida tbm, eu alcanço meus objetivos financeiros em relativamente pouco tempo (estou na jornada da aposentadoria antecipada, FIRE).... enfim...
Acho que falei de mais....
O que queria era a visão de vocês sobre essa questão de: devemos estar sempre tentando um projeto em paralelo ou tem hora que é tudo bem falar: esrou de boa com meu trampo e ganho bem então quero focar em outras coisas que nao so programar.
Como você lida com isso?
Inspired by another post I decided to start an annual ritual of posting one update per year of my FIRE journey.
So here it goes:
Age: 33
Country: Brazil, currently living in Europe on a SailBoat
Work: Software developer, remote for an US company
Salary: 84K USD / year
Savings rate: 80 - 90% (5k to 6k USD per month). Yes I am really frugal
FIRE number:
Best case scenario: 600K USD
Not ideal: 400K USD
Worst case scenario (poverty FIRE): 200K USD
OR 2k USD dividends per month + some growth to maintain principal
Current net worth: 196K USD invested
Strategy:
Around 30% bonds
30% growth stocks / etfs
40% dividend payers (plan on living off dividends as soon as possible)
I have a house in a small city in brazil
When in Europe I live on my boat
Roast me / send your ideas, suggestions... or... questions??
Engine: yanmar 2ym15
Country: netherlands
Temperature this morning: 8°C
During my boating I saw some white smoke coming out of the exhaust. Not a lot. Just a little bit. And thin.
Just wondering If this could be an issue or is all ok?
I motored for about 1hour. The thin smoke was there during the whole time.
I motored up to 70% of cruising speed
Any ideas?
First time i changed my engine coolant.
Here is what i did:
Drained the old coolant (image 5)
Opened container cap (image 1 to 4). The coolant inside was ok. But there was some pretty nasty coolant around the cap and also this crystalized blue coolant on the sides. Cleaned both of them, used a bit of paper to prevent the crystalized coolant to fall inside the reservoir when i was removing it
Flushed the whole system 3 times with demineralized water (was not able to find distilled water nearby so had to go with demineralized) (images 5 to 8)
Filled system with new coolant
Topped up return reservoir
Anything you would do different?
Anything I did incorrectly?
Not sure this is the right subreddit. But here we go.
Long story short
I have always been frugal
I am a software developer
I live onboard a sailing boat and work remotely
My job is not too stressful, if I keep the good work obviously
I know I am very privileged to be on this position
I am on my way towards LeanFire. About 33% of my final objective already
I have always worked a lot and I am a pretty reliable and proactive worker (always good feedbacks)
The closer I get to my FIRE objective and the more I learn to enjoy life onboard and it's simplicity the less I am motivated to work my regular job. Even though it is pretty ok as I told above.
Anyone ever been through this? Would love to hear your experience.
Be brutally honest, am I beeing too 'lazy' or is this just my priorities changing?
