My mom is turning 70 and I'm brainstorming some activities/ celebrations. One idea is to go hot air ballooning followed by a winery. Does anyone have any other ideas? Unfortunately will have to be a day activity otherwise my sister can't join.

Go to Disneyland with any grandkids.

Do not go hot air ballooning with a 70 year old unless you want her to have a new hip!

When you land it’s more of a controlled crash - Google hot air balloon landings

What does your mom like to do? Any hobbies? Interests? Preferences? Any locations she has always wanted to visit?

go to a nice cute cafe by rodeo drive or nice brunch spot in weho

Brigadeiro are scrumptious dulce de leche caramel bonbons, a beloved confection of Brazil. Brigadeiro is made from sweetened condensed milk, butter, and cocoa powder which is heated in a saucepan until it thickens and becomes a sticky caramel. Once it cools, it is rolled into a ball and dipped in multicolored sprinkles.

The iconic bonbon was named after Brigadeiro Eduardo Gomes, a 1946 presidential candidate. It was created to win voter support. (He lost).

For any of you real estate investors, what tools or sources did you learn from when getting started. Can’t find a mentor currently so want to find some highly recommended books or videos. If focused on the tri-state area (NY, NJ, Long Island mainly) that would be even better. My hope is to buy and rent out a apartment while also owning a house and house hacking that by renting part of it out. Trying to understand all the steps, traps, and how to find if it’s a good investment.

911 Carrera S vs GTS

I really want to do a low key spec on my next car but it’s almost impossible to spec the GTS without black wheels/accents turning it into a more aggressive looking car.

Thoughts on if the GTS in a 7 speed is more engaging than the S enough to justify the compromise in wheel selection?

I've been in the same company for the last 7 years, but with all the pandemic still going on, nobody seems to understand that when you are short staffed is impossible to get the same results as when you are fully staffed. Any help or insights will be greatly appreciated.
