Is it bad that the first thought which came to my mind was "what (movie) series?" until I realized you ran an actual marathon?

Good job, btw!

Pretty obvious he was watching The Cleveland Show marathon.  There are four seasons, so 3:55:06 is indeed good time.

I have done nearly everything required for my bachelor's degree, except for listening to an 1.5 hour talk about scientific literature research. YAY!

Sometimes I play Dominion and then I go play reggae music with some Jamaicans in an African restaurant in DC. That's happening right now.

An African restaurant? Isn't there a fair amount of variation in cuisine across Africa?

...spin-offs are still better for all of the previously cited reasons.
But not strictly better, because the spinoff can have a different cost than the expansion.

What does that have to do with the food served in an African restaurant?

He thought I meant it was a restaurant that just served generic "African" food. Most African restaurants will be West African or Ethiopian or Eritrean or whatever.

I was wondering if they were as authentic as Indian or Chinese restaurants, which are famously accurate in their presentation of traditional recipes.

Great choice! Some of the happiest memories of my life were on a Mediterranean cruise. My suggestions are; You can do all the excursions on your own, avoid the shops your "supposed" to go to, and don't be afraid to stay on the boat. I'm sure you will have an amazing time!

Awesome!  Roth IRAs are a ridiculous lifehack, and if you can afford one you should keep contributing the max each year.

I hope you put it into an index fund?

My remaining problem with index funds is that I would be taking profits from tobacco companies and arms dealers.  Screening those out tends to push you into the arms of active managers.  It's been a while since I investigated this though, so perhaps it's time for me to have another go.

My account says it is a mutual fund Roth IRA, which I assume is different than an index fund, but I really don't know very much at all about these things.  The guy on the other end just asked on a scale of 1-6 how much risk I was willing to take, and I told him 6.  I can always downgrade the risk in later years as life circumstances change.  And I plan on contributing the max every year.

Funny.  I literally know someone who runs a fund creating "ethical indices" with minimal cost.  I think it's silly but clearly my view is not universal.

Roth IRA just means a type of account, the same way that checking accounts and savings accounts are different.  Index fund refers to where the money is going.  Are you investing with some person?  Are you paying a lot for their services?  In general the most efficient investing strategy is to dumbly put your funds in the market, instead of paying extra to have someone try to beat the market for you.  No one beats the market in the long term, and so maximizing your return is really all about minimizing your fees.
