His grocery store idea might, might work. Open grocery stores in NYC buildings, no rent to pay, less overhead. Get groceries from local farmers etc... It's a long shot but it's an idea. He'll have to fight every existing grocery store and a zilli…
Broncos won == good. Broncos and Raiders had more penalties than first downs == not so good. They aren't pretty but they find a way to win. The 2 games they lost, one was last second FG miss, and retry make, after a dumb Broncos penalty and the …
It's insane, a trillion dollar pay package? A trillion seconds is around 32 THOUSAND YEARS!! What happened to reality? He could spend 93 MILLION a year and not run out for over 10 thousand years!!
I'm in the 120 minus your age in equities mindset so I have plenty of cash/bonds. I have had a plan for several years now but have deviated a little from it at times. I need to follow it and not deviate as much. Easier said than done when most day…
MANY years ago I thought the increasing wealth gap would lead to a revolution but it hasn't, yet... I could never understand the hording of money as I thought the more you pay your workers the more money they'll have to buy your products. Why take…

Are some of these unicorns just because of the amount of money sloshing around in the US though they are not real unicorns? I'm constantly reading how this new startup or that new startup raised millions or billions. i.e. they didn't really earn i…

ADD: poked around on the above site. Interesting articles which seems to lean right.

Only a full nationwide stoppage will change things. We need 10 million to make it happen. See the above webpage info.
Is that a fake picture? It looks like it's sitting on the water or is that when part of the rocker came back and was caught by the tower? ADD: It is 403' when all stages together so that's like launching a 40 story building!! Crazy.
everyone does stuff I don't like. I can't continually follow up with all their shenanigans that i might be mad at so just buy what I want from whoever.
If there was ever a better "until it affects me" sentence I haven't read it.
Crazy, if you look at the USA with its healthcare and gun deaths it's pretty hard to argue we don't have the dumbest population in the developed or maybe the entire world for living like this.
Used to use a shredder but stopped about 15 years ago. I just rip stuff in half and throw it in recycling. Never had a problem. I think freezing your credit report accounts at the 3 reporting agencies is far more important than using a shredder.
Every money managers top priority (although they might not admit it) is growing AUM. That's how they grow and get richer. Fees, fees, fees the more AUM the more fees. I followed him for a while, some good guest on some of their podcasts (Youtube: T…

I hope self driving cars improve to a point I can get in and say take me to X and it does... what a benefit to older drivers who should no longer drive.
Yeah, thinking the same thing. The delayed data from a week or so ago, was that ever released? We live in such a fast paced news cycle I can't even remember what it was but thought to myself, ut oh, delaying means someone's messing with the number…
True, true but even though it may go into sleep or hibernation I'd imagine there are always a few read/writes happening from time to time in/out of ssd memory or it wouldn't know to wake, auto update etc...
