When the indicator is in the overbought-oversold area, a trader should start thinking about taking profits or scaling out of a piece of the position if he is already in the market. If he is looking to get into the market, he should use the overbought area as a place to wait for a retracement.  [2003] - Marcel Link

Normally, a lender won't grant mortgages for properties on leased land unless the lease runs significantly longer than that of the mortgage. For example, if a condo is on leasehold land with a 30-year lease and 5 years remain after the scheduled end of the mortgage, the lender will likely consider the risk too high. Buyers typically want an assurance of the terms of leased property when they buy. Five or ten years is rarely long enough to reassure potential purchasers that a property will have the value they saw in it when the time comes to sell. [2020] - Douglas Gray

Older people in particular should try to keep track of their lean mass, such as via a body-composition-measuring scale (or better yet, DEXA scan), and adjust their protein intake upwards if lean mass declines. For me and my patients, this works out to 4 servings of protein per day (each at ~0.25g/lb of body weight), with at least one of them being a whey protein shake (Typically, I'll consume a protein shake, a high-protein snack, and two protein meals). The overall quality of protein derived from plants is significantly lower than that from animal products. The same is true of protein supplements. Whey protein isolate (from dairy) is richer in available amino acids than soy protein isolate. [2023] - Peter Attia
