To me most of his music was just about having silly fun or plain goofy. RIP Jimmy and thanks for the smiles and fun. AND remember, it's always 5 o'clock somewhere. This margarita is for you JB.
"The new trend is to follow ESG quietly."
Yup, and probably should have been from the start. IMHO, the bulk of the masses who reject anything "ESG" or 'woke' or 'Pride' or similar have no idea what these mean at all other than they should be agains…
I'd bet on the "none." he's too ignorant to know when to just shut up.

All good points @Junkster and thank you for weighing in. I too became a believer in cutting losses early and to this day have not learned when to sell my winners (e.g. I bought Mickey D @$13 circa 2003 and still hold it) and see no magical prowess i…
@hank said It’s unlikely I’ll even need that feature, but nice to know it’s available.
I sometimes use it to place buys on my TF funds when the days trading begins with a huge market dump. There is a 3-day execution delay to be aware of but sometime…
@hank - google "who owns CNN"
You'll see many links to ownership as well as some for FOX and Fox News(?).
In another brief peek I found that MSNBC is owned by NBC Universal News group. NBC Universal News is a subsidiary of Comcast (CMCSA).
It's all about the $$$$$$$ and the power that goes with it. The allure of 45 escapes me entirely. I must have been raised wrong and attended all the wrong schools.
@FD1000 - I think you missed the point of the article if you even read it at all. He was saying that if you have limited income (i.e. from your paycheck or earnings) it's difficult to construct or build a portfolio. That is the situation for million…
Well shucks. Here's what a WaPo article has to say about Trump-Jail-Secret Service
If Trump is convicted, Secret Service protection may be obstacle to imprisonment
Come on Crash, it can't be easy coming up with something that doesn't clash with orange jump suits. I'm thinking hours and hours of work to arrive at diddly squat.
Although highly doubtful, if Trump is convicted and sentenced to jail time would members of the secret service have to go with him? Asking for a friend.
Has the Big Pharma industry ever put forth justification for the large price differences for the same drugs sold in the US vs. other countries? I mean other than they can.
Adding: For the last 3-4 yrs I keep looking for the health sector to make a …
We are spending time here to learn from one another if we can and maybe, just maybe, find something that might make us even more comfortable.
I don't believe that anyone has suggested that very high-income investing has better performance or even b…
There are still some people who think that the earth is flat, that man never went to the moon, that the government is out to get them etc., etc., etc. Does anyone actually think that telling us that there is or isn't aliens and/or alien spacecraft i…
Sure, that may be true @FD1000, but you only know that after the fact. Some people are simply not comfortable holding stocks and some don't see any reason to hold bonds. Since many are not market mavens and may or may not be confused or unsure of wh…
Seriously, with all of the other problems and issues we have in this country that need solutions and could be discussed in congress why are they wasting any time at all on this topic? Besides the fact that the current majority party is a bunch of wh…
