  1. I had thought it was Trump, but now I'm convinced it's Elon. And no hell you say? I think I've heard about that before...
  2. That one is my fault, I took him off my list.
  3. I see reports Sec Def Pete having confidential/classified discussion on signal in a group that included his family. I think I need to get on signal, and maybe I can get the early word & some inside skinny.
  4. When no one else thinks you are making same decisions, just declare you are the most sane decision maker...ever. TL:DR - we are fucked
  5. Now Little Marco and President Huff & Puff are bored with this whole war thing and they are going to do something else; after finding out that ending a 3+ year long war is more that a days work, and their attention span is limited to a day maybe two. US will 'move on' from Ukraine peace talks if no progress soon
  6. We had to know that was coming, based on the articles out there that go into ocean shipping being cancelled.
  7. It seems like, because it is the reality, that President Huff & Puff has the attention span of a 5 year old and since this war thing cant be solved with some simple easy solution then he will move on to something more of his liking. And his minions (Marco, etc) will slur the blame on Ukraine, because we cannot upset Mother Russia (who by the way is somehow exempt from all the tariff talk). Also, I don't think we ever really cared about the minerals in the Ukraine, but Prez H&P just wanted to be able to say he made a deal, as that is the really important thing is making announcements. Carry on - the leaders in the US have lost interest, so just do your little war thing.
  8. antiquated, the DJIA is antiquated. That is a correct statement.
  9. 2 guys did that last week and ended up in a playoff
  10. I'm guessing that headliner Milli Vanilli had a conflict, so that caused the postponement
  11. I saw it on reddit/golf - said it was a broken jaw (and the video is longer) also local police called and decided it was just a fight. I only hope they have cameras ready next week; I can only imagine the shit talking in the clubhouse yesterday and on the first tee next week.
  12. Monday night golf league - they don't fuck around in Canada
  13. about those to the moon returns on stonks....
  14. There had better be fireworks this week at RBC, because without Rory and BDC , it is just a bunch of guys hoping to win a lot of cash and a really ugly jacket.
  15. We have tried to explain what MD Anderson, and the Houston Medical Center, is to people back here in Michigan. But the scope is really beyond what most people can really imagine for one complex. Roughly, MD Anderson has about 25,000 employees and the medical center over 100,000 employeees and has over 160,000 patient visits per day from wiki below - list of institutions in the medical center
  16. Damn - I need a friend, who can't use them, to win; or the friend of a friend. Because the lottery is my annual disappointment unlike any other.
  17. I'm not going to look it up, but I've heard that his GIR and distance have both been in decline for the last 7 years - part of it is his wayward driver, but it is also his iron play. He needs to be healthy and get right with his swing. His short game can still save him, but only to a certain point. But he is still young, sure there are young guns coming on tour every year, but he can still compete, if he can stop playing all over the course. And if not it was a great 4 year run he had, that was awesome to get to watch.
  18. If I ever win tickets to the Masters, I hope Freddie is still playing - because I would follow him for quite a while
  19. Yes, but it is a very large asshole, like a black hole with a huge gravitational pull l force that sucks in and destroys everything within it's sphere of influence
  20. Here is a sight where they can book space flights for you - including a circumlunar mission, 10 days in space including orbiting the moon (how much is the lottery?) Orbital Space Experiences - RocketBreaks
  21. scale of 1-10, how crazy is it that the President is personally involved in picking winners (and acting like the King anointing his chosen ones) answer below
  22. indexed annuity and a structured note that is tied to QQQ for one, and SPY for another, will do the managed portfolio if these work out. The products I am in have a cost of less than 1%, moving to managed portfolio doubles the cost and the risk. I started this move in July 2024, but took serious steps in late January/early Feb, so this rollercoaster is less worrysome to me.
  23. Holey Shit - if this is 5% true we are so fucked. I recently started working with a financial advisor, and have started a plan to move from direct equity investment into a structured product that gives limited equity returns (SPY, QQQ, Russell 3000, etc) and has downside protection. It is a 3-4 year plan. That currently has my direct equity currently limited to BRK and PRWAX, and SPY exists through the structured investments. And if course there are 3 stonks that remain, that today's just over 3%. All that said, I'm a big believer in long, and have offered my oldest son a personal guarantee to downside risk for 5 years, but only if he stays in the markets and continues to contribute into equities. He turns 29 this years, and he is very nervous about putting money in now.
