Why do you think so many generals and top military brass are getting shit canned? Can you visualize a MILITARY COUP? Think it can’t happen here?
Never thought it would. But now? ...Ya. And it won't be any spur of the moment thing. It's already in t…
Ya, unless you're already an Orange Criminal Felon Fart-faced Billionaire via crypto, no one needs 30+ funds. You'd be running your own monstrosity of a Fund, rather than a personal portfolio.
@Crash Ty Cobb knows what he’s talking about, but unfortunately, this isn’t getting much coverage. If trump concludes that the Democrats will take the House, there will be no midterm elections.
I'm inclined to believe you. And it will be the end.
@catch22 Thank you, very much worth reading. I'm still reaching for yield in Junk funds, which of course are BELOW BBB rated. I also see, as can anyone else, that the spread between gummint or AAA rated bonds and Junk is thin, currently. Many of the…
So, when will the files under control of justice (little j is intentional) Aileen Cannon be released? And, uh, when will she be held accountable?
Boom. A timely question!
And how much coverage, overall, is this prospect getting in the news from day to day? Not much. ICE masked Gestapo are kidnapping people. Even citizens are being held, just for the intimidation and cruelty message it sends. Lately, there have been m…
You guys have hit the nail on the head. If I did not laugh, I'd have to go vomit--- again. It is disturbing in the extreme that there are so many moronic voters in this country that the Orange Doink was able to be RE-elected. (The first time was not…
Gilded Age. Great Gatsby Hallowe'en Parties while (at the time) Food Stamps were cut. And what about Medical costs? Conscience-less, evil lumps are in charge of the US gummint. I was just looking into Medicare options today, Part D for DRUGS. I now …
i like the Ellis example. amateur tennis is more about being defensive than aggressive. limit your mistakes and you'll win. I think a good enough portfolio is likely just that.
Agreed!
...Then you have the question of what quality is BBB nowadays.
This is merely anecdotal, but what I hear over and over is that even below BBB-rated Junk these days is generally of better quality than it once was, particularly leading up to the GFC …
I just now looked at this whole thread, though I did not read Benz. Like the rest of you, the Maximiser vs. Satisfiser motif is pretty clear to me. And nobody, I bet, would be always 100% one or the other.
Having been "smart enough" to inherit som…
Deny, decry, fantasize, ignore, redirect, live in a bubble. Ya, that's how ya do it. And his sociopathic, antisocial narcissism won't allow him to admit actual mistakes, either. Grandiose opinion of himself. A shell of a human. Hollow, rotten, septi…
"Memo From Turner." Stones.
Edgy, that's no surprise. On the one hand, "it's got a good beat, Dick, and you can dance to it."
On the other, the lyrics sound dark, and frankly, some of it is a bit beyond me.
I almost think this song was posted on ac…
Dunno if this one meets your criteria. It's a State Street ETF, a fund of its own funds, includes bonds. So, Asset Allocation or what we used to call "Balanced." Ticker is GAL.
Schwab is not showing me what I want to see about it. Overweight Financ…

I did not realize she has been so prolific. I note that she earned both the M.D. and M.Div. degrees. A rare dual accomplishment. The M.Div. is the standard seminary degree.

Easier to click and share? I was at the Oct. No Kings/Dictators rally here. Lots of people out. Hard to conceive that half the country still stands behind the Orange Atrocity. I think, as Bandy Lee describes, they cannot bear to admit to themselves …
