Something that I liked at first but now dislike.
Decades ago (stone cold sober no less) I really liked Pink Floyd.
Now I just find it difficult to sit through. I want something a bit faster pace.
What’s crazy is that I loved the steam world titles (quest and build were ok).
But I didn’t even know Heist 2 came out. I’ve already wishlisted it for later.
There was something in the manual if I remember correctly. Which you wouldn’t necessarily have if you rented the game.
Edit: just checked and I was wrong. Nothing in the manual. I must have been thinking of another game.
I used to be an avid reader but as I got older and busier I just couldn’t find the time.
Then when I did have time there was always distractions, or other things I could be doing.

I read 130 books or so last year that way.
Mowing the yard? Audiobook.
Long drive? Audiobook.
Waiting at the doctors? Audiobook.
Dishes? Audiobook.
And then when I’m really invested I’ll relax by playing some mindless game while I listen. Think match 3 or bejeweled.

Wouldn’t this be equally offset by the increase in inertia from their masses?
Looks like a doable design for 3d printing. Assuming you don’t mind having plastic digging into your feet.

One thing to consider. When the stocks that are part of a mutual fund drop… then your retirement contributions will be buying them on sale.
Assuming the mutual funds are spread out to minimize risk (1 of the funds companies folds, etc) overall you’ll be better off long term.
As you age you’ll start moving your investments to more stable options (talk to a financial adviser on the specifics for your plans). This way they that won’t benefit from huge gains but also are a lot less likely to be wiped out by massive drops.
In the meantime look at how your funds are doing over time. Not even year to year but maybe every 2 or 3 years.

Marketing Consultant: No, King Condiment, you can’t put red in red on an ad. They won’t see it. They’ll wonder why you’re selling a gun to shoot at food.
The King: But it’s great advertising!
Marketing Consultant: No, that’s not a great marketing ad.
The King: But they can still use red for ketchup right?
Marketing Consultant: Of course. And your instructions can tell them which is for which.
The King: It’s so confusing!
Marketing Consultant: It is. And if you had hired us before manufacturing millions of these we could have told you about using another base color with red and yellow grips and triggers. But you didn’t and so here we are.
