Malaysia's situation should be an example of the consequence of policies favoring the dominant group over those deemed non indigenous.

Right, so instead of trading you choose to invest and believe you can get a better return on your investment than a mutual fund. Ok, why not.

Again you have difficulties separating fact from fiction. Those who committed these attacks in the US were mostly Saudis, our ally, and later Bin Laden was hiding in Pakistan, another ally. With such allies, who needs enemies!

Lebanese are like Chinese, you find them all over the world, holding small businesses, merchants and traders. The violence in that country is in direct contrast to the warmth and kindness I've always experienced when meeting Lebanese people in the world. But as far back as I remember there's...

My 2 cents on that is that's not trading, it's investing. I can invest in an aggressive or conservative mutual fund and avg 8 to 15% a year over 10 to 20 years and there's nothing wrong with that at all. But trading is basically saying, I can do better by doing it differently, using different...

One only needs to read what you wrote to make the connection between the Mujahideen and the Taliban or any other Islamist group wanting Sharia to define rule of law and government. They can call themselves what they want but their ultimate goal is absolute power. When our interests need them...

Maybe you can tell us what you know about either?

Yes, you are right that EVs cannot sustain high speeds and in the future you will not be able to drive 180 km/h for 2 hours. I know it sucks, I like driving fast too, but that's just the way it will be in about 10 years. The German government won't even need to argue with auto enthusiasts about...

Well, soon enough in Europe you won't have the choice, all vehicles will be EVs.

Consider that Norway has the world's highest EV penetration and it snows a bit there you just need to Google and educate yourself.

You're in crazy Australia where buying selling real estate is a national pastime, although this friend lives in Mill Valley, California, where a 1900 sq ft, 2 bed 1 bath sells for 2M. But the point is, humans are afflicted with perpetual insatisfaction and wants become needs in a flash.

Not true. If you run you aircon, music and whatever else the test stipulates, your engine won't stop because it needs to produce the energy required to run them all. There is a highway between San Francisco and Lake Tahoe which sometimes shuts down in the winter due to snow storms. Cars can be...

Lol... you eat up propaganda BS all day long don't you.

A good friend of mine 8 years from retirement was planning on a simple social security check and about 1M savings. Except he bought 2000 shares of Tesla at sub $50 3 years or so ago... he moved up retirement by 7 years and now can't see how he can retire with less than $5M... Life is funny...

You do realize they were our friends when they were fighting Russia, right?

I've always been wary of idealists, especially when they concern large numbers of people. No grounding, all possibilities. Anyone with a modicum of grounding would realize that 1. Because it appears empty doesn't mean it doesn't belong to someone 2. If it doesn't belong to anyone, it will have...

Politicians aren't afraid of crypto, they just aren't going to let crypto decide how things should be. Hint: to be integrated in the financial system the way it could and should, crypto transactions will have to be traceable, originator and recipient. It is the once in a lifetime opportunity...

I like it! But a $200k annual family income puts you in the top 10%, and most would agree that financial life isn't so complicated at that point. After 17 years, that annual income grows to $330k, now putting you in the top 5%, and $1M in retirement is inadequate to make ends meet. That...

Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA) CEO Elon Musk on Thursday showed off a new lap record for the company's long-range electric sedan, the Model S Plaid, at the Nurburgring race track in Germany. What Happened: Musk took to Twitter to reveal that a completely unmodified and straight-from-factory Model S...
