stepee Posted June 21 Share Posted June 21 I met with a potential new financial advisor today as I’ve been shopping around finally. One of the questions was what my goals are. I didn’t think I had any but I realized actually there are some once I was asked. So I’ll ask you, do you have any specific goals? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamer.tv Posted June 21 Share Posted June 21 There are loads of general ones that revolve around security, but really my main goals are: To ensure as I get older, my diet and levels of activity are enough that I give myself the best chance of staying healthy. Push to progress at work whilst I’ve got the capacity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.Vic20 Posted June 21 Share Posted June 21 1. Complete the raising of my children 2. Move to an environment that better matches my wife and I 3. Spend the last part of my life working a little and helping others 4. Spend my remaining free time with my best friend, my wife 5. Read a whole lot more than I do now 6. Die relatively not horribly 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biggie Posted June 21 Share Posted June 21 None. Just survive the best I can paycheck to paycheck and hope that nothing goes horribly wrong or the wheels will fall off. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodger Posted June 21 Share Posted June 21 At this point live long enough to play Elder Scrolls 6 and Fallout 5, which probably takes me into my 50's. I can probably shove off after that since I'll probably be working until the day of my funeral at this rate. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see you bud. Honestly I don’t have a lot of personal ones yet myself! I have fitness goals and stuff aim working on and just going out and touching grass more which I’ve been doing lately but not much long term I’m looking to achieve I’ve figured out yet. My goals I came up with where just as my money grows further I’d like to do things like get my Dad a house, help out my nieces more, donate more to local political campaigns etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

legend Posted June 21 Share Posted June 21 Are we talking financial goals or life goals? Financial goals: * Save up enough for retirement that I can maintain my lifestyle with my wife throughout it. * Have enough money throughout life to not worry about medical bills to the extent that medicine can address any ills. * Not worry about having enough money to fix my house (or have a good house if I have to move). Remaining life goals: * Make reinforcement learning a robust technology that can be straightforwardly applied by non-experts. * Solve the AI problem, or at least come to understand the solution to it if not by my own efforts. * Build a star ship capable of interstellar travel. Some of those goals have questionable likelihood of being achieved, but I'm optimistic on the last one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slug Posted June 22 Share Posted June 22 Have enough to live off of when I get old so my kids don't have to take care of me. Own a large enough plot of land that I can shoot on it legally. Be able to feed my gaming habit and my football game attending activities without worrying about if I have enough money. Be able to take the family on a nice vacation every couple years or so. That's about it. I'm a simple dude. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nokra Posted June 22 Share Posted June 22 To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate the beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because I have lived. Or two chicks at the same time. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
