In reply to ABC.

Yeah, not sure why we messed this up. There was a lot of talk about them. Maybe we just went all on vaccinations? Or something like that. No worries, the full Afghanistan war budget will be redirected to…this…

“ In Germany you can get rapid COVID tests for less than a dollar at the supermarket. Britain hands out 14-packs for free. Canada is giving them to small employers.

In the US we have approved only a handful of rapid tests and they are expensive.”

Yup, paid $25 at Walgreens using the amazing CFU (insert link). 18+ months of COVID, I initially imagine there would be a sense of urgency bringing cheap tests to the market.

No regrets either

In reply to ABC. LOL I'd be retired by now if it weren't for a wife and four kids. No regrets on my part, not sure what the Mr Money Moustache position is...

Lesson #17 for the FIRE community, don’t have kids. WORST financial “investment” EVER!
It may significantly delay your retirement.
