Puerto Rico has spectacular tax advantages - i think if you run a hedge fund or some kind of intellectual business you move from manhattan where you pay a 55% marginal rate to puerto rico where you can pay an 8% marginal rate

Be careful before moving there... Puerto Ricans generally commit much much more violence than Americans .. this is true of Puerto Ricans living in the usa and also of Puerto Ricans living in Puerto Rico

A huge number of Urban Baby moms are University of Pennsylvania alums. Adam Anhang, penn alum moved to Puerto Rico to develop real estate... he built a number of high rise buildings there... he married a puerto rican girl and she immediately asked her brothers to murder Adam Anhang so she could get all his money. Adam's parents had to fight for years to get the money taken away from this girl who arranged for her own husband to be murdered.

np: seems like the sensible thing to do would be to sell the apartmnents, move into a $1M home, and use the interest from investing the other $1M for taxes, home maintenance, and some extras that you will need once db is born.

B for now. Start looking at ways to parlay the rental properties to upgrade your 2 BR into a less crappy 2BR or a 3BR while still getting rental income (from all three, from selling one or two and continuing to rent out the third, or from selling and reinvesting in other properties). I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to have a steady source of income that is not job-dependent. LOVE TO HAVE THAT.

sell 1 apt, upgrade into better 2br and take income from the remaining two apts. you can always sell them later, or use income to buy country house down the road or whatever.

Audiologist here. Wear earplugs instead. This is pretty bad, that's called tinnitus and you are on your way to early hearing loss.

Short term hearing loss is reversible. Like when you go to a loud concert and you have ringing in your ears. Then you go to bed and your inner hair cells(in your ear) recuperate. But if you expose yourself to this daily the inner ear don't have a chance to recover. In a nutshell.

You probably look great. I have pictures of myself at the same age, around the same as you, and I thought I looked healthy and awesome, very muscular and active. My kids were young and I really looked great. Don't listen to these crazy people. I remember apologizing to an older aunt for being too heavy and she verbally slapped me down and said I looked beautiful. That aunt was thinner than I was and lived to 90. She wished she could have been me.

The hot water raises your internal temperature and thus the temperature of your amniotic fluid. Unlike you, the fetus cannot sweat to regulate its temperature to stay safe. A shower is better than a soak.

it's only bad if it raises your core temp, and is then worse in the 1st trimester, I was told. Thus saunas and jacuzzis in which you immerse your whole body are far worse than regular baths in which your shoulders are out of the water and your core temp doesn't rise.
