  • Thanks. Realize the kind of answer I gave won’t win me ‘points’ .

    realistically if I could do that for my kids I would. I think lots of wealthy families do, only when the opportunities are media facing does it get backlash.

    There isn’t a social media page devoted to farm families passing down multimillion dollar businesses as a matter of fact.




  • I mean likely. I live in a better school district than most and have time to spend to help my kids with homework. I usually attribute all kid success to kid efforts. Don’t foresee myself as an adult going full narcissist and claiming credit,even partial, for the kid success.

    It would be up to them to publicly acknowledge what they had other didn’t. Otherwise it’s kneecapping their achievements.

    I mean it’s true. She doesn’t like hearing it.

    It’s like the old craft system. A cobblers son was most likely to be a cobbler because they grew up around the skills tools and equipment. If a parent has a high level of skill and resources it’s way easier to teach it to a kid for a kid and for them to succeed.

    I mean I would loved to have a parent in a position to help fund and guide my first business venture like that kids has.

    If I was successful, I would do that for my kids.




  • When trouble shooting sometimes chips, caps or resistors can get much hotter than surrounds parts. It can let you know to inspect that part for replacement.

    Sure don’t grab leads with your fingers but sometimes you can tell something like a voltage regulator is malfunctioning because it just gets really hot.

    I mean you can just use an IR camera but most people don’t have one.




  • I’m no expert either but a first step would be to take the case off and listen for which part the whine is coming from. That may clue you in.

    You can also touch parts and see if any are extra warm/hot soon after start up.

    That can help direct your trouble shooting.

    Don’t buy parts until you have a clue as to what might be happening. It’ll save you money.
