Texas size Blueberry Muffins.
My 6' long stainless steel commercial table arrived.
I lugged it inside myself, though the driver did offer to help.

Almost completed with remodling the kitchen.
Will be finished next year.

Working your whole life to enjoy a few years when you're close to death is one of the biggest scams nobody talks about.
You spend your healthiest years making someone else rich. Sitting in traffic. Stuck in meetings.
You'll never get those years back. Time is the one asset you can't buy more of.

This is the definition of a bubble. It ends 2 ways:
1. Bubble pops: 401k's drop, we enter a recession and bailouts arrive.
2. Bubble doesn't pop: AI takes jobs away, unemployment spikes and 1% take 99% of the profit.
