Well ain't you and HCR a couple of buckets of sunshine. It's snowing and zero degrees here in my wooded compound and this is just what I needed to start the year. NOT!
Happy New Year my friend.
I have to say that there is nothing that smells so fresh as items dried on an outdoor clothesline on a breezy, sunshine filled day. There isn't a softener scent or product that comes even close. Indispensable when it came to laundering my kids diape…
So trumpy can take credit and use as his own Pres. Biden's record for the drop in drug OD's while stating that he was a terrible president. Nice try. He must be using the same fact checker as FD. I don't think deplorable is a strong enough word.
Easy peasy fd. You are being lied to multiple times on a daily basis and you keep swallowing it.
People are spreading lies about the fraud in Minnesota. Let me fix it for you.
- Most of the fraud that has been charged was uncovered 3 years ago and …
Meanwhile back on FD's presumably gated ranch - If you're angry about the Minnesota day care fraud, the cases below will, or at least should, really upset you but I'm betting that he will ignore, deny & dismiss them.
Philip Esformes ran a mass…
"In Minnesota, loosely regulated systems allowed the creation of thousands of fraudulent businesses by the Somalis, resulting in the loss of billions in taxpayer dollars."
WRONG! That enterprise was founded and directed by an American, Aimee Bock.

Don't know if it's white or not but a blue whale's poop can weigh as much as 4 tonnes making it the second largest piece of shit in the world just behind trump. It would be sweet to see him hit with that.
Well, talk about a Christmas rush @DrVenture! So much for slowing down as we get older. Happy to see that recovery is progressing and hoping for a successful outcome all around. Take care of yourselves.
"...2 feet of ice and snow on the cab of my pickup recently." Ain't it the truth!? Makes for some fun driving when you come up behind a semi & trailer out on the freeway. I move up cautiously and then go like all get out to get around them. Ther…
@hank - have you looked at the SAI (Statement of Additional Information). I'm not sure if T. Rowe would put that info there but it might be worth a peek.
Not a good week or time here either. "Sen. Alex Padilla (D-Cal.), in June, was manhandled, thrown to the ground, and hustled out of the room when he simply tried to question Homeland Security Department Secretary Kristi Noem about federal immigratio…
As Christmas Day is almost over it's time to start assembling the ingredients for Hoppin John. "Hoppin' John is one of those classic Southern dishes that come with as many versions, stories, and flavors as there are cooks. At its core, however, Hopp…
"'The minute you load money onto one of those cards, the crooks are notified, and they instantly drain it, sometimes even before you leave the store,' said Amy Nofziger, director of fraud victim support at the AARP Fraud Watch Network."
Well that's…
To demonstrate how out of touch I am with current music I have never heard of most of these artists much less the tunes selected. Larkin Poe is The closest I come but they didn't make this cut. I offer it here for the curious. The article is shareab…
Sure, I can see excluding certain investment types, just not the ones listed in this article. Not to disparage anyone but I think one can be selective and do well.
1. Dedicated REIT. I own 'O' Realty Income. First bought in 2009 @ $22/share, added …
Being self-employed I never invested with them because of the front end load. My loss perhaps. I am glad that I locked unto their Capital Group managed ETF's however.
Well, I don't own any I-Bonds and I'm not compelled to ditch the others mentioned based on this report. The author seems to lean toward Capital Appreciation focused positions which might be appropriate over an investment journey but maybe not so muc…
Useless for me as well. A quarter or so of my portfolio ends up in the 'other' category and I've never been sure about their placements of CEF's. Gosh it's not like CEF's are a new thing. However I don't think that Fidelity covers CEF's very well in…
