    Stock Market

    I had to re-read, I thought you typed 'whorehouse' and I was like "damn...BFC likes to party, I should get to know him". Lol.

    Stock Market

    The bulk of my portfolio is long. Index funds, and a few stock picks of companies I will stay long on. I have some play money that i'll do pretend daytrader moves with, but i never do any trades with that that are more than i'd be willing to burn on the floor. I had a penny stock that went up...

    Stock Market

    I jumped out of the market in late august, and then it dipped, so I was feeling like a genius (because I got lucky). I jumped back in on the 11th, and with some short term plays here and there, finished up a 8% week....which is insane to me. I wanted to sell off again, because i'm certain at...

    Why don’t these younger generations pull themselves up by the boot straps like I did

    I was looking at parcels to purchase to build a retirement home on in 20 years. Buy now (well, a number of years ago), pay off over the next 20 years, and then the land would be paid for, and then use the sale of our current home, to pay for building the new home on the paid for property, and...

    My midlife crisis has been racing go karts like an idiot. I love it so much though. I race with a bunch of kids in their 20's, and i've been on their asses hard to start investing now. Just start with whatever they can budget for each month, $10, $100, $200, but budget an amount they can do...

    The only dispute I have with this, is the dollar had gold convertability in 1968. After 1971 when nixon removed the convertability, gold started to get silly on it's pricing. Gold price was no longer tied to the dollar, it became a asset for speculation. A loaf of bread was .21 cents in 1968...

    Don't quote me, because i'm not double checking what I believe to be the case here, so i'm don't take what i'm saying without double checking to make sure i'm not remembering this incorrectly. Milton Freidman talked about how the only thing that causes inflation is the government printing...

    Yes, my only job is painting guns, not a side hustle. Fiberglass repair, painting techniques, welding, firearm disassembly/reassembly/repair, I use to augment my job because they're skills valuable to me frequently. Some of the other stuff is just personal interest learning, not looking to...

    Why don’t these younger generations pull themselves up by the boot straps like I did

    For me, i've learned new techniques and methods to improve at my day job as a gun painter. I've learned how to invest smarter, and generate higher returns than the S&P 500 average (so far, high risk, high rewards, as well as rapid losses. Trying to wrap my mind around options trading, but I...

    I agree, it shouldn't be this way, but it is. We can spend a lifetime discussing what caused it, and how to fix it, but the more immediate thing we can all benefit from, is adapting to it to make things better for us now. There are people who are benefiting greatly from making it what it is...

    I've never been good at language, I barely passed the required foreign language courses in middle school. I suppose it would be very different for me, if there was more necessity. I have family in switzerland, they speak many languages. I think my cousins speak 4, my aunt 7, and my uncle who...

    Why don’t these younger generations pull themselves up by the boot straps like I did

    If you go back far enough, there was a time where every member of the family would work to just be poor. Kids barely getting an elementary education before leaving school to get a job in a factory, or mine, to help ensure the family has a small amount of food on the table, and a shitty roof...

    All the knowledge, tools, and information one could ever hope to have access to, fits in the palm of your hand, and everyone carries it everywhere with them. Instead of using it to amass knowledge and skills, they use it to post pictures seeking validation from strangers they'll never meet...

    Someone murdered Charlie Kirk

    My thoughts on the way the texts read, many of y'alls are like "people don't talk like that"....correct, normal people don't. Neither of those two, were normal. You had a gender bender troony toon, and you had a leftist hate filled gay man. I'm betting he turned to the troony toon due to his...
