I am a techno-geek that frequently tweaks and fixes things, many of which aren't broken but I fix them anyway.

@_boostedmedia @fanatec I just wish they'd fix the shifter issue. I love the shifter but the misplacement shifts make it unusable.

The "NEW" @fanatec ClubSport Formula V3 is HERE! Minor variations of the CS Formula Wheel are a meme at this point, and while this new version isn't the wheel we've all been asking for, it does carry some important improvements... boostedmedia.net/sim-racing/har… #simracing

@fanatec How about a trade-in program? My Fanatec shifter has been dead for months while I wait for the "update".

@fanatec I'd love a fix for my shifter. It's a great shifter when it works.

They say the average annual return of the market is typically between 7% - 10%. So as investors, that's the return we should typically expect, right? Well, no. While the market average is typically 7% to 10%, there is a wide standard deviation, meaning that most years the market does not have a return within that average range. In fact, it's just as common for the market to return 0% to -10% as it is for it to return 0% to 10%. And it's actually much more common for the market to have returns of 10% to 30% than the average. And this is why most people can't handle investing. It can be emotional- If you let it. Having a year where you are up 30%, followed by a year where you are down 30% can be quite the emotional rollercoaster. This causes people to jump in and out of the market at random times. And the data tells us historically speaking that investors are quite bad at trying to time the market. So what does this mean for us? Don't expect the average over short periods of time. In the last 4 years, this has been $SPY results: S&P 500 in 2022: -18.1% S&P 500 in 2023: 26.3% S&P 500 in 2024: 25% S&P 500 in 2025: 17.9% But if you have the guts to hold long term... Then you can take part in the greatest wealth building tool of all time and achieve great results.

@_boostedmedia I love the work that you do in this space from reviews to race content. Your website packages it all up so nicely. Thank you so much. One note, consider putting dates on the stories and reviews on your website though. I'm trying to figure out what timeframe the reviews are from.

Have you seen the pricing trackers on our new website? boostedmedia.net/discounts-coup… One of the sneaky tricks that gets pulled on #blackfriday is inflating the price, only to discount it again so it looks like a genuine discount when really you're just paying the original price or a smaller discount. NOT ON OUR WATCH! 🕵️ NOTE: Image is an example of a genuine discount.... #simracing #CyberMonday

Twitter only loading halfway for me currently. This site's been getting more and more flaky lately. Maybe they're letting @grok work on the frontend code now?
