I believe this is what you're referring to:

As far as OJ is concerned,

Collections attorneys who have experience know how to use the Florida Uniform Fraudulent Transfer act and other such actions in Florida to attack transfers by a debtor into exempt assets. Such transfers may be reversible in certain circumstances. Furthermore, transfers to a spouse may also be reversible if done to defraud a creditor.

IOW, you'd better have your ducks in a row before there's a judgment against you.
With respect to plaintiffs being constrained by contingency lawyers, submitted for your amusement:

Geico must pay $5.2 million to woman who got HPV from sex in man's insured car, court rules
...The woman — identified in court papers only as "M.O." — said that she "engaged in unprotected sexual activities in Insured's vehicle" in November and December 2017 and that he "negligently caused or contributed to" her catching the human papillomavirus (HPV), a common sexually transmitted infection, court papers said.

Of course this is being appealed. Still this is the type of claim (liability for negligence) that umbrella insurance is designed for, and it illustrates that the amounts and types of claims possible are limited only by a plaintiff's imagination.

Currently DCA into Contrarian. I took Divs & CG in cash (Micro Cap Fd) for 2021, maybe time to reinvest these funds ?

@Observant1
Several political blogs questioned why Santos's opponents campaign or the national Dems couldn't find stuff that the NYT easily uncovered. I looked into it a bit and found the research paper the Democrats wrote on Santos. ( If anyone is interested I can try to find it again)
95% of it deals with his pro Trump/election denying statements etc, and other than mentioning his education and supposed job history they did not investigate. The one red flag is they did discover he had been evicted for non payment of rent several times, but apparently didn't follow up
My impression was they were so focused on his being a Trumpite ( Thinking it would rile up the Dem base?) , that they failed to make a few phone calls to Citi or Goldman, thus violating what to me would be the first law of politics : Know your opponent.
I shared this info with my uber Democratic cousins and was accused of "always complaining about the Democrats". Tehy refused to believe the campaign was responsible.
I think it demonstrates again, how polarization has so overtaken people's previous good sense and investigative reporting. Even criticism from allies is seen as treacherous

And so the game of chicken has begun. Who blinks first? The mainstream politicians in both parties or the financial terrorists holding the government and our economy hostage?

Ditto. Plus headline CPI (CPI-U) is +0.9 for the past six months, or 1.8% annualized. (See the bar graph partway down this page.)
Think how meager the yield of an I-bond priced now would be, even if the fixed portion was bumped up a bit. Per Yogi's thread on I-bonds, it's not likely to be any better when the re-rate comes around again in May.

Equal-Weight & Market-Cap Sector ETFs
As noted already, the GICS sectors (11) suffer from odd placements of companies because the companies can be only in one sector (e.g. all of the original FANG are now found in XLC and XLY), and also the super-concentration (e.g. XLE). The SPDR sector ETFs follow the GICS sectors using market-caps, but Invesco/IVZ sector ETFs use equal-weights. There are other related ETFs too, but this post lists only the SPDR (market-cap) and Invesco (equal-weight) sector ETFs. Search the other ETFs with etfdb.com/etfs/.

A local Long Island newspaper (The North Shore Leader) reported about George Santos before the election.
Since this paper reaches about 20,000 people, few outside of Long Island may have been aware of his antics.

More inflation data posted today.
https://vox.com/policy-and-politics/2023/1/12/23551782/inflation-cpi-consumer-price-index-federal-reserve
Couple that with last week’s slowing wage growth is encouraging; the rate hike may become smaller. After a bruising year of 2022, these are quite encouraging data.

From Walter Deemer this evening, a true icon since the 1960s among technical analysts. “ The stock market generated breakaway momentum today for the 25th time since 1945. This is a genuine breadth thrust. It means (IMHO) we’re in a bull market. How long it lasts, and how far it carries is something we will know only in the fullness of time.”
Twitter is all lathered up about Mr. Deemer’s breakaway momentum thrust, Zweig’s breadth thrust, a Whaley breadth thrust and more, I am in a small group of retired bond traders from insurance companies and banks and that is all they are talking about too. Even more so since the junk bond indicator has worked so well YTD. I just hope since these breadth thrusts are now so well embraced/discussed/known that doesn’t blunt their effectiveness,
Would be nice if this lock out move up continues not allowing those waiting for a pull back to jump on board. But who knows, The S@P is the most overbought now since last May where it then proceeded to lose several hundred points so say the bears. This current market though in no way resembles the May market other than being overbought. Just look at the daily new highs/lows.

@Observant1 - I’m glad you and others continue to share your holdings. No intent here to impugn or discourage that practice. I too have acquired some great funds after others wrote about them here. So my decision to no longer share is strictly personal.
I quit identifying individual stocks I own 6 months or so ago. The thinking at the time was: (1) I’m unqualified to evaluate individual securities and could potentially lead someone into an inappropriate investment (2) More selfishly, I didn’t want to be “hyping” stocks I owned on a public forum and possibly contribute to whatever herd mentality might exist (across the internet) - thinking that in the longer run it might work against me.
Thanks for your comments.

If the rate is high for twelve months (you're getting a blended 12 month rate of around 8.4%), then the penalty is almost meaningless. Hold the savings bond for 15 months and you get that 8.4% for 15 months instead of 12, which is still around 6.7% annualized.
That penalty wasn't a deterrent with rates so high. It's likely to be one going forward as
rates for upcoming 6 month periods drop back down to "normal".

The 3 month penalty (after holding for 1 year) and limited investment caps are a killer. Sure, it was "fun" getting 9.62% for 6 months, then "ok" getting 6.48% for another 6 months.... but then it's time to look at an exit strategy.
Having to eat 3 months interest upon withdrawal is clearly meant to keep short-timers (like me) away. This investment probably wasn't worth the bother.

The minimum holding period is one year. No one really know if inflation get down to 2% in the next 12 months, but it is unlikely going from November’s 7.1%. After 12 months one can sell I bonds and lose the last 3 months of interest. Personally I can live with that small penalty. The other play on CPI is to buy TIPS at auction and @yogibearbull has covered this topic.

Alert on #IBonds, 1/12/23
While the current 6.89% rate will apply to I-Bond purchases until 4/28/23 (rate valid for 6 months from the purchase date), the preliminary projections for the next rate on 5/1/13 are for only 0-1%. About the half of the #CPI data needed for 5/1/23 rate is in, and inflation is trending down. I-Bonds that are 12+ months old after 5/1/23 may be sold with 3-mo interest penalty.
