    How To Make Money?

    What you should really be looking at, is where your talents, skills, and professional expertise is, and try to build off of that. In other words, what's "the right answer for me", isn't necessarily right for you. How much does your disability limit you? Confucious: "He who loves his work...

    Going Downhill Fast?

    To add on my last post, another encouraging sign: Good people are not only 'waking up in greater numbers', they're getting REALLY PISSED OFF. Arc, I'm right there with you...I will NEVER accept this bullshit as being normal or equal.

    Going Downhill Fast?

    Silent: Imho, a good point for people to ponder, is the various differences between the US during the Great Depression, and America today - for our purposes: - America in the 20's-30's, had a much larger farming population than it does today. Farming, by its very nature is a lifestyle that...

    Maggie’s Socially UNacceptable Humor

    A truckdriver is hauling a load of bowling balls to Alabama to get fingerholes drilled in them. He's in the middle of Appalachia, and miles from anywhere, when he sees these 2 black kids pushing a bicycle with a flat tire. He stops and says to the kids: "I don't have any room up here, but if you...

    Auf wiedersehen, German Hillary....

    Amen! Both of her parents were Stasi scum, so it is no surprise that she's a traitorous sellout too. I don't make a habit of wishing bad on others, but for her, I hope whatever time she has left is spent in complete misery, and that her end is slow and painful.

    Going Downhill Fast?

    Thank you, my friend! My reading on the site made me realize that the Hide is definitely a place where I can learn a lot (and hopefully give some knowledge in exchange)! To answer your question: Our food storage is a combination of garden-grown, canned, raised, combined with FIFO store-bought...

    Going Downhill Fast?

    I have been "doing something about it", for a very long time, now. 1. I do my absolute best to encourage family & friends to "follow the path of their ancestors", in that: they learn "old world skills" (such as country living habits, e.g. gardening, canning, raising poultry/livestock), and...

    Going Downhill Fast?

    Gentlemen, thank you for your replies! I think it's definitely picking up speed...my best attempt to explain the gain in momentum, would be by looking at the news cycle, from 1980-2018: Years ago, there were major events in the news, but they were usually spaced far apart (say a few months or...

    I'd like to see,

    Gunfighter: IMHO, the entire social model is backwards, and the opposite of how it should be: If you are honest, hard-working, frugal, and "follow all the rules", you get screwed over, every time you turn around... If you are a liar, a cheat, a thief...you probably work in D.C., or on Wall...

    Going Downhill Fast?

    I wanted to get some perspective from other SH members (regardless of where from): Is it just me, or does it seem like society's marching off a cliff?

    Tikka T3 Thread

    Can anyone tell me which model# Limbsaver pad fits the T3 Lite factory stock best? I've heard that they tend to not match the stock profile exactly. Thank you, Andre

    Military Antiques Collectors?

    No you wouldn't, this thread is more about networking; if privacy is a concern, PM is an option too.

    Gun stuff or new car

    My friend, I wasn't intending my post to sound accusatory, and I absolutely agree that there comes a point when "you have enough". I can't stand people like Gates, Buffett, or Soros...they're wealthy far beyond what they'd be able to spend in their lifetimes, and use their wealth to force their...

    Gun stuff or new car

    Maggot: When I was little, my parents both worked 2 jobs each, to provide for my well-being. As a kid, I had a lot of hustle when it came to turning a buck. We're self-made people, and at various points, I could have very easily become one of those starving people, who thinks "it's everyone...

    Gun stuff or new car

    Very nice display! I collected cards as a kid, but I never got into memorabilia as I got older; I was collecting cards when it was still a field dominated by kids; once the adults got involved, it ceased to be fun for me, so I sold my lesser stuff, and kept the best pieces for free (couple of...

    Gun stuff or new car

    168: Clearly, we have similar philosophies when it comes to money; great minds think alike, my friend! I have a lot of different collecting interests (literally 30+ fields), ALL of which have generated better returns than "traditional" forms of investing have. I do it out of genuine passion...

    Gun stuff or new car

    Andre's Rules of Money: 1. There is no such thing as "Good Debt". 2. You are always better-off with low ongoing expenses. 3. Never "Invest" in Depreciative Value Assets. 4. ALWAYS pay yourself, first. There are more, but these are the ones I want you to concentrate on, and here's why: 1...

    Military Antiques Collectors?

    Hello: I was just curious, if anyone here on the Hide (besides me) collects military antiques at all? Thanks, Andre

    Suicide up 38-58% in some states.

    It is ABSOLUTELY economic, in many cases...because the 'benevolent leaders' are lying through their teeth about the real nature of the US economy. "Unemployment" is low...(because it only counts people with active unemployment claims, not people who can't find a decent-paying job because their...
