🤖 The big change I'm hearing about in the world of Media consumption is that we will be provided with sources that the AI thinks we are interested in not in the sources we subscribe to. What are the things you are interested in?

I'm researching early retirement, but I'm interested in comedy because I want to laugh every day 😄 Life can still be funny when going through a rough patch of life.
Upcoming LIVE on the YouTube Channel + an Invitation
Good Morning SKOOL members. I posted a video today on the topic of using an ai 🤖 recently to help me with a real life how to. Initial comments are very interesting. The LIVE will be talking about the use of ai and our fear or comfort with it. The special guest is BOB, the ai chat bot. 🤣 (seriously, he will be there) Join us on Monday, January 19th at 8:25 pm EST. And here is a special invite for any members of our SKOOL community to come on during the LIVE and share a story or opinion (5-10 mins) on your ai experiences. Simply click on that link after 8:25 pm EST or so and you will enter the "green room" where I will see you are there and bring you on. Try it! https://streamyard.com/b3hu7bx2qu

Video of hubby using AI Bella to move robotic arms: https://youtu.be/a91zSLSxHuw?si=2FcwO5GbAFcxT14E Don't ask me geek detail of what he's doing. It's all very technical & still sitting on my dining room table (thru the holidays).
Age...
I drive for Uber + Lyft and tonight I picked up an older guy and took him across town to his home. He looked close to 80, had a fancy walker, said he had issues with several verterbrae in his back, and had a sharp-edged sense of humor that I liked. He's in the back seat and I can't see people back there, and all they can see is the back or side of my head, less if it's dark outside. I had some Pink Floyd playing and he made a comment about listening to "rock and roll" and I said it's because I'm a child of the 70's. He said, "Well, I'm a child of the 60's." Hmmm ... ok. Anyway, we had fun trading barbs and he said some stuff that made me curious about his age. I was guessing he was about 10 years older than me, so I asked him how old he is, and he said, "I'm 68. Gonna be 69 soon. What about you?" I said, "Well, I'm going to be 70 this year." He seemed rather dumbfounded. So was I -- this guy who seemed 10 years older was really one year younger. Hmmm... It was a fun ride, but it made me think about how we see ourselves. The person looking out my eyes thinks he's 25 but my body says otherwise. I do look a lot younger than my age, and that's nice. I do like that when I get younger kids in the car and ask if the music I'm playing is ok, most of them say, "Oh, sure, my [family member(s)] listen to it all the time, and I'm cool with it" -- it's mostly 70's rock. What can I say ... although I couldn't stand the music MY parents listened to when I was growing up (Broadway show tunes). I get to meet such a variety of people driving rideshare. I've learned it just doesn't pay to make quick judgments about anybody. But it's quite strange the boxes people put themselves into, and it's not something you can just ask why they do it.

Fil, Ray-Ban ads pop up when I watch your videos 😎 You're becoming the face for Ray-Bans! I'm considering a purchase since I live in the sunshine state 😎 GenXers are known to be easily influenced by ads.
Learning new skills post-retirement
I’m working on perfecting the perfect tofu dinner! I’m on round #7 and it’s getting pretty good! I’ve made pizza from scratch, and my omelet skills are on point too. What should my next challenge be? Any suggestions from my boomer friends? Thanks!

Firm or soft tofu? Texture makes the difference. Crepes is your next challenge. I have an IHOP copycat recipe that I have yet to make. 💜 I love sweet crepes with a side of sausage & eggs🍳 for breakfast with coffee ☕️ The $25 (with tip) is my incentive for learning to make it myself.
Retirement Plan O (Ocean House)
Hubby made a video of our dream on his channel. Jack is the star of the show: https://youtu.be/HVkYNbriLm8?si=MghF7cri5-JkgwGr Since we couldn't make it happen, we moved on to Plan P (Pool) which we accomplished. However, we're currently in Plan Q, Questioning all of our retirement plans & preparations. Running out of letters yet the early retirement or not countdown began in 2026 🥳
