Are you requesting answers for my specific case, or just providing me with advice?
(As an observation, which isn't meant to be a hostile response to your comment, people seem very keen to offer advice on LW, even when none has been requested.)
Advice, I guess, in the sense that I think these are the questions you'd be interested in knowing the answers to (for yourself, not for posting here).
If it's worth saying, but not worth its own post (even in Discussion), then it goes here.
