  1. Bezos isn’t the CEO now.
  2. Seth Mclaughlin and Josh Fryar. Gee Scott, Jr. but I think he'll be an UDFA.
  3. My company matches every paycheck so I'm averaging out up and down on my contributions. It does suck when the market drops enough in a pay period to where your balance doesn't go up from the contribution but the number of shares does. I max my 401k including catchup but that will change next year with the new catchup contribution rules. I'll just up my brokerage contributions then.
  4. For the most part it is. Then you have something like the old Bose 901 and their bizarre placement. 8-)
  5. Bookshelf speaker is a misnomer. No speaker should be put inside another cabinet or backed up against a wall. Proper speaker placement is key.
  6. Thanks. We have always liked to eat at small towns in Tuscany and preferably towns that only have one restaurant. It had better be good of the locals won't eat there is my thought process.
  7. Yep. That looks like a lasagne bolognese. I took a cooking class in Tuscany and learned how to make it. Looks perfect. Thanks.
  8. Was it the green lasagna?
  9. OK. Flying into Milan and overnighting on the 14th of June. Train to Bolzano on the 15th and rent a car there and then drive to Ortisei. We're in Ortisei from the 15th until the 19th with daytrips to Lago de Braies and Tre Cime for sure and possibly other spots. We will take the cable car in Ortisei to the top of the mountain. On the 19th we train to Bologna for five nights. We daytrip to Parma via train on the 21st and Modena on the 23rd. Parmagiano Reggiano tour in Parma and just check out the town. In Modena we'll have a packed day with a balsamic tour, a tour of the Enzo Ferrari museum and I should be able to get lunch reservations at Franceschetta 58. The other two days will be spent exploring Bologna. We'll then train from Bologna to Milan on the 24th for the return trip home. I'm open to any must have dinner reservations thoughts in Bologna.
  10. Piastri is just a better driver right now.
  11. We have too many fucking old men running this country. I am firmly in belief that once you pass the age of 65 you can't hold an elected or appointed.
  12. So we've got that going for us.
  13. Damn.
  14. It still has a long way to bounce to get to where it was when this shitshow started.
  15. I'm 63 and planning for retirement so yeah, it sucks, but I'll come out all right. Some things I can't do much about right now but all new money is very conservative until this shitshow works out.
  16. And we're red again. Bets on an afternoon bounce?
  17. After market was very positive and Japan market is up about 5%.
  18. Aftermarket shows promise. I’m sure there will be a 4 am tweet that blows it up.
  19. EU says we can fuck with your markets too.
  20. Well, this explains the sudden downturn after some positivity.
  21. I have VOO up in a window and it's moving up and down so fast it can't keep up.
  22. And it's a roller coaster today. 8-(
  23. Just understand that it may be uncomfortably hot. I've been once in the summer and it was brutal. February and March are my preferred months for Isla.
