@BarakRavid @axios The day is done. Gone the peace. Trump and Hegseth to include auto factories in the target list for this week's strikes.

@TanookiKuribo I'm even starting to see what amounts to "see price in checkout" when online restaurant price checking.
Of course the old problem is still common, where you can't choose the store pickup (takeout) price.

@HedgieMarkets Brown has been cheesy for generations. They hire good faculty, but they just don't hold students to any standards.

@RobArno4 @dividendology If there were $100,000 in checking this could be a Silent Generation account.

@dividendology Need to work down that credit card debt.

Consider selling car and walking or using public transportation or getting an old beater.

@Sitimesparty @OGsDontFold If you trade in your used car you get a credit against the sales tax. (Different jurisdictions may vary.)

@shaguncrypto I can borrow $1M at 12%
Can you run those numbers for me?

[The Great Gazoo @flight2q3211]

@ChiefEngineerCE 67 is a bad age to take social security for those in average health. 66 or 68 is better. 70 is also bad; 69 is better. You can take it earlier than 66; look at TIPS interest rates and consider if it's better to park it there. Consider tax consequences too.

@benkesslen Stop thinking poor and get central air.

@BongsMahlangu_ I only recommend government positions to clock watchers.

@PerreAye @KwikWarren And there's water in the bottom

[The Great Gazoo @flight2q3211]

@KwikWarren $1.99 is my price. I see them selling for $2.50 when the store is desperate. I'll get my price when Lay's are piling up in the aisles from months of no sales.

@schoolhall0com @MarketMovesMatt Look up calendar spread. If your broker allows you to do it. The tricky part is when you get assigned. In his example, you did well on the long-dated option.

@AI_LasVegas @realfrugalmogul The costs of long-term care insurance are absurd, the coverages limited, and the insurance company will fight you over everything.
I know people who got LTC insurance long ago when it was "cheap" and ended up dissatisfied with the deal.

@LarkDavis A pocket knife and a river filled with piranhas.

More realistically, already heavy in TIPS and stocks are defensives. Looking to crawl back into more equities gradually on the slide. No whammy.

[The Great Gazoo @flight2q3211]

@SCHDETF In short, like when a very stable short-term bond fund paying monthly finds its share price climb gradually through the month reflecting the accumulating dividend. If people pile in at the end of the month and "buy a dividend", div/share is less but less decline in share price.

@LeDindonFiscal You're supposed to send your wife and children out of the impossible heat in the summer.

On the other hand, having air conditioning is a good way to meet your neighbors.

[The Great Gazoo @flight2q3211]

@SCHDETF Can we corner $WEN and have it make a tender offer on $GME?

Life always gives you a second chance.

@jimboiwe @CapexAndChill MS Access is the sticky point.
And Excel is actually good.

[The Great Gazoo @flight2q3211]

@RonDeSantis You spew propaganda at the voters. You install the vote counters. You bribe the candidates. You attach your stuff to must pass legislation in the middle of the night.

If all that doesn't work, you can still hope your installed justices will legislate from the bench.

@JayneshKasliwal Remember, setting a stop loss doesn't guarantee you can sell at that price.
