oh, just a regular model 3. I didn't ever have an M BMW, so I was comparing it to the a regular BMW with sport suspension. Eventually I just couldn't justify spending 50k+ on a BMW with a four banger engine that gets a 6+ second 0-60.

Can't get hacked if your systems aren't up :ROFLMAO:

I used to exclusively buy BMWs, and the Model 3 suspension is *not* as good as BMW's suspension. But it's certainly better than say, Lexus, Toyotas, Hondas, Fords and whatnot.

need my grants to pop, come on GOOG, to the MOOON!!! But also, very bullish on Waymo. Their product is incredible, and they are very much part of Google and leveraging the largest computer cluster and network in the world.

Unwind your shorts now, Trump is going to Make Tesla Great Again!

Who puts a prep kitchen in a two car garage, five bedroom house? What a fucking waste of space, that has to be the absolute dumbest thing anyone could have done with that space. Oh are you hosting a wedding for 80 people in your 14x12 living room area? I hate prep kitchens in these kinds of...

https://www.redfin.com/CA/Lake-Forest/39-Barberry-92630/home/112722752 This one looks pretty overpriced, with some terrible photos too. But it is a nice neighborhood.

wow, you're saying you shorted the market cause Trump got in office? You saw he'd be bad for the stock market?

what model Taycan did you have? 240 isn't bad, but I gotta assume after a few years the battery range will be down ~10%. The Macan EV looks nice, maybe i'll look at the as they come off leases in a couple years.

Apple stock has done really well in that time frame. Lotta employees probably just selling chunks of stock to reduce their commute times.

Nope, I went from West Irvine to Baker Ranch (in Lake Forest/Foothill Ranch). I also regret selling my West Irvine townhouse...but meh, it worked out well enoug, not sure I would have enjoyed being a landlord.

I bought my house for 1.2M in late 2020 (thanks again USC!) and it should be worth about 2.1M conservatively now. At peak, a model match with a smaller lot sold for 2.3M. So this is probably a bit better than John's Creek, from a pure appreciation perspective. Irvine has appreciated at a...

Maybe i'm spoiled but I want a spare bedroom so if either the wife or myself is sick/snoring (or the kid is), at least one of us gets a good night of sleep. Then I also like having an office/library area downstairs. When it's chaos downstairs, retreating to a separate, quiet area downstairs...

The problem with the old floorplans that came with 3CWG is they have the split living room/family room thing that just doesn't make sense to me. Did you get a loft too, or was this one of the plans where the loft got converted to a fifth bedroom? I have a *huge* loft that I'm wondering if I...

Oh that's awesome. I'm enjoying my work now, but I think it'd be so fun to make the rounds of some of the gigantic tech companies over the years. Maybe Apple and Amazon in five or ten years for me.

I don't think Apple has an office in OC, other than some tiny satellite one for VR development in Newport Beach, which would be greater than a fifteen minute drive. Blizzard, Amazon, Blackberry, and Broadcom are all in the Spectrum area though. (I don't actually know anyone who has worked for...

I don't think I agree at all when it comes to a mortgage. People need a place to live. If you're going to spend 4k on housing your family, it doesn't really become 'bad' if it's in the form of a mortgage and negligible to your financial health if it's renting. Plus, I'd rather have 10M and...

I owe about 700k on my mortgage, the rate is about as low as it gets too. Property taxes are ~$1100 a month, no mello roos since it's Baker Ranch, HOA is less than $300, insurance is cheaper than that, and landscape is ~$100. I don't have a pool, my lot size is only ~4500 sq ft, but that's...

I believe Game Chest in the Irvine Spectrum has boxes of pokemon singles, but I don't imagine you'll find expensive cards or binders of hard to find ones there. Its' more like, grab bag bulk buying common singles.

I don't think I ever figured it out. AMZN? Broadcom?
