Femurs Or Tibia First

Edit Post

I both agree and disagree - Google Aaron Clarey,  it is all about what you study at University and how hard you work.
I did my homework and decided to study a tough but most importantly in demand degree -  Electrical Engineering (not social sciences or "business") , I worked hard and graduated in top 5%. Now 30 years later I earn more than 2.5 times the average wage (well over six figures $US), I have flown all over the world for work sponsored Training/further education ( and pleasure) , my income continues to improve. As an Engineer I have been able to physically cope with my work even while recovering from LL surgeries, whilst others my age are unemployed or still working hard in low paying jobs.
Choose well !!

People like salt bae, and some dumb YouTubers make money posting about their shxt lives.


Cooking YouTube channels gets tons of views, everyone loves to eat...
And obviously if I start a business like food truck etc it’s easy money bro l.

Uni is only useful if you want to be a doctor, engineer, bla bla and it takes years to study and a good job is not guaranteed...

Believe me when I say going uni is useless... I know some people who went uni and are working in supermarkets, and I also know people who dropped out of college and are working in warehouses...

It’s all about the time and being smart with it.

Can’t be studying for 5-10 years just to end up paying uni loans

The productivity has to come from somewhere.  A relative of mine was in charge of starting a new adult school in a rural area.  All the single moms there wanted cosmetology of course, but he refused to offer it because the town wouldn't benefit from a bunch of young women doing each other's hair and nails.  Same problem religious extremism is causing in the middle east: you can't have a functioning society of all Imams.

Not everyone can do food trucks and/or YouTube for a living.

Meme stocks on the other hand...

GME chart looks to be forming a bullish cup and handle.

Hahahah

Love the feedback guys.

Good to read other peoples opinions about work/ life in general not just about LL surgery.

I respect everyone hustle, engineering, doctor, business man, comedian what ever it is.
As long as your happy and can provide for you family etc, your all good.

100% true. LL will relive me of height neurosis and make me happy for once.

Why don't you try to become a truck driver? if you calculate, you could recover your investment in 4-5 months if you have an operation for example with Dr. Buldu in Turkey, it is a very demanded and well paid job.

Listen here buddy, you won't feel anywhere near average at 5'6. I'm 5'8 and if anything I genuinely feel small. Almost every single guy at my 1000+ highschool was either taller than me or roughly my height, I've only seen like 4 guys that were smaller than I am. I also knew of quite a few women that were taller than me.

You're gonna go from small to, well, still small, while damaging your body tremendously. One surgery is already extremely traumatizing for your body, therefore 2 is pretty inconsiderate, especially if you're planning on lenghtening that much. The end result won't be anywhere near worth all the pain and side problems/risks.

This may be worth if you were able to get from small to tall but it's not the case.

Now if you really feel like you need the surgery, afterall it's your body, it'd be INSANELY safer to at most get 8cm/3 inches in the femurs so you can get to 5'4 in order to be as tall as the average woman.

Doing both tibias and femurs at such lengths will not only ruin your legs it'll also look completely uncanny due to proportions.

Think about it really.

A lot of folks do and already did both femurs and tibia and they are doing fine. Upto 5 cm in tibia and 7 cm in femurs is completely safe. People suffering from dwarfism lengthen upto 1 foot and end up doing fine.  I am also planning for 5 inch in total (2 inch in tibia and 3 in femurs).

The thing is that depends on your definition of fine. I don't exactly call permanent knee/hip pain and limping fine

I’d actually argue that 5 in the minimum on tibias you should go for, otherwise the pain, cost and everything else associated with the procedure is not worth it. I did 6cm with externals on Tibias and I’m okay so far.  my $0.02

Permanent knee/hip pain can happen in single lengthening. It depends on your surgeon and luck. The most common cause of permanent knee pain is damage to the patellar tendon caused by the nailing of the tibia. Those who do external tibia don't suffer from any knee pain.
