I was around 27 as well. I’m a big guy with a muscular frame but put on extra weight over the last 2 years of intense company building. If you can get a prescription (Hims will prescribe) you may have to pay out of pocket, but worth it IMO. They may want you to be at 30 BMI, but that is easy to fudge on their intake (they won’t do any validation of your intake numbers). Commit to a few months of extreme dedication and let the financial impact be a motivator.
Reassess progress towards your renewal (we did 3 months). It’s literally cheating, in the best way.
I got a Komodo a few months ago in LA area for $3500 used with multiple cards and gold mount batteries, outrigger handle, pl mount adapter, etc. They’re out there, a lot of people upgrading to the X.
I’ve been doing all of those things professionally on Macs for almost 20 years. I can’t actually think of a single one of my peers that uses Windows.
