Ask Lemmy

i have a decent understanding of unix-like systems.

I don't feel any part of me that itches to make posts like this on the internet, and I appreciate that advantage.

My dad died back in 2016 when I was 25 so I got an early inheritance to invest at a good time.

English teacher who made me write a 500 word essay every day for a semester.

I was lucky to have money to invest at the right time when the markets crashed in 2008 and 2020, when stocks could be had at a 90% discount. As a result I was able to pay off my student loans and put a down payment on my residence with the profits, just by being willing to wait a few years for the market to recover.

Everyone I know owns a business, or is a landlord

I have an IQ of 123 in spacial recognition.

I have thick thighs and a good understanding of Linux :3

I guess being white male, and 198cm/6foot6 Though this is a curse also.

I am very comfortable with my own company also, and never get bored so many things to do and learn!

lmao:

I am helping many needy peoples.

I'm engaged to my best friend, my future in laws are cool as hell, both my parents are alive and well, and my brothers and I get along really well. I've also got the cutest little nephew and hearing him laugh always makes my day. I might not make a ton of money, but I've got a damn good family and couldn't be more thankful for them

Absolute, fanatical concentration.

I have relatively high intelligence, have a job that allows me to work at my own pace and combine it with study and other activities, I have good friends and a supportive, caring, active and housewifely partner, my mother is alive and well.

Generally, a good set for a fulfilling life :)

I have known some wonderful people who have helped me to grow into a person I don't entirely hate. Most of the time, I'm depressed, but I feel privileged to know people who remind me of things that are worth fighting for.

I can walk.

Wicked smaht. And generally good genes - no family illnesses or anything.

When I was in grade school we had a self-directed math program called Individually Prescribed Instruction or IPI. In the program you would take a pre-test and based on the results do a set of exercises. Then you took a post-test to close out that section. What I realized is that since the exercises are self directed we had unsupervised access to the exercises and the solutions. When given the pre-tests I would look up examples in the exercises with the solutions to figure out how to do the questions. I then proceeded to speed run the whole IPI curriculum. This gave me a leg up in math. I proceeded to get a 100% on my Algebra regents and just generally crush it in math. Ended up getting a uni degree in math and physics. This opened many doors for me later in life.
