Well, we made it through the ECLIPSE 2024! My daughter, husband , and I shared the moments together, along with several of the neighbors. It was beautiful and the gasp of the neighbors' children was epic.

I'm in Philadelphia (90% totality zone), but it was cloudy, and it was nothing like what I was able to see on television. It was still amazing though. My kids were astonished and in awe. Something to cherish for a long time (20 years until the next one over us).

I'm in Los Angeles and I feel like we didn't really see much. A student brought in some special glasses you were supposed to be able to see the eclipse with. So our class went outside and watched for a little bit, but it just didn't seem like much.

I wanted to buy some blow up dolls and fill them with helium, and let them all go and watch the school go mad!

That would have gathered a lot of attention!

We weren't in the line of view either and it was totally cloudy as well. It was still neat to experience everything go dark for a minute, but I would've loved to see it in an area with good visibility! You're lucky!

It got a little dark for about 30 minutes, but no totality here. I knew I wouldn't be able to see much so I didn't get glasses, but it was neat to see the light dim for a while.

Did you guys have any special plans for viewing it? Telescope, special glasses, the whole shebang? It's always fun to get creative when it comes to astronomical events.

Thoughts on long-term (5-30 years) fate of the market for consulting in London? I’m considering a move from outside UK but some have argued that London market is “just a fight over the increasingly diminishing pie”, despite the temporary uptick in consulting work now to deal with corona& Brexit. Perhaps I should hit Asia or US.

Hey all newbie here. My husband and I are living that Double Income No Kid life wanting to (Financial Independence) Retire Early.

Both in tech in the Bay Area. I’m in Arizona visiting family and am thinking of an investment property. Does anyone have a book/course/video that they personally have used and recommend for flipping houses? I want to do some research there’s a lot of content out there.
Thanks a bunch!
