AustinP says he's in the Fingerlakes. I grew up in Syracuse. Still have family in Baldwinsville

Quote from Sniemiec: I'll never pay cash for a car. $50K out of pocket into a depreciating asset, or $10K down and a monthly payment while investing the remainder? A car is in a different asset class than a house and land. A car will be worthless 10-15 years after purchase whether you...

Yeah I've heard that before in books I've read. I think it's probably a wash with the possibility of coming out ahead later on. My savings at some point will out way my mortgage and can pay it off at anytime I would want if it makes me feel better. I think there is a reason my mortgage company...

Kev, Good idea budgeting and getting rid of debt. Did something similar alla David Ramsey method. Only thing I debate about with myself is whether to pay off mortgage. Inflation is kicking the crap out of the numbers and no doubt will accelerate going forward. I understand the pleasure of...

Yeah that seems a bit jumpy and out of line with the numbers. We're just vacillating back and forth a couple percent at a time as we move down. I would think maybe 10-20% all of a sudden would get the guns loaded, but this mostly sucks for people using the never say sell mantra in there...

Uhmm... Their career would be over and they would be labeled the grand master of the KKK. Probably be in court for the next three years defending sexual harassment charges. What country are you living in?! That Obama has started discussing this in politics is admirable. I think it's a really...

Yeah, it was pretty hilarious seeing some of my truly liberal friends heads spin. They were just down right confusedly angry. Made absolutely no sense , but were sure that she was the devil. Agree on the econ stuff. People are just starting to get how shaky things are. They still have yet to...

Guess it all depends on which shit pile your standing on with a megaphone and crazy look in your eyes. Tis the season.:D

"Well I guess you would just walk over someone poor dying in the street!" My wife actually had one of her friends say that to her. This woman believes that all conservative minded people are horrible. So even though we are her friend she says we are racist, sexist, and cold-hearted. She of...

I understand completely your frustration. I think you and I are out of the mainstream though. The US will be doing this to it’s people and the people of the world until it can’t anymore. There just isn't anywhere you can go. I guess all we can do is have eruptions of disgust every once in a...

Ah, gnome you always brighten my day. :cool: :D I have a dream. That some day, some how, people will get what you are saying. Judging by the understand of P Diddy , pop cultures social and government policy laureate, we are far far far from landing on that shore. JIM

That may be one of the most unsophisticated arguments I've seen from someone I assume thinks of himself as a commentator or reporter. To try to equate paying for goods and services used to whether or not to tax again the money paid from profits of corporations is just ludicrous. One obligation...

Alright! AP you win. You are an up standing competitor who has continued to sign up for, participate, and show your results proudly in all the Robbins World cup competitions you have said you were going to enter with or without direct competitors from ET, just to show your stuff. You are...

Just the longer term no leverage swing trades. Don't have the coin I feel I need for safety in day trading futures. I know I'm not worthy to post critiques of trading decisions among the gods yet so I lurk. I like to follow along with the people here that I believe have a system and try to glean...

Aaaauggh! You've been saying the same crap for the last couple years now. Give it a rest. Yippie ki yay, cow poke!

I guess it depends on if your rep or Dem. You obviously think of rep that way. But a rep can look at all those definitions and come up with obama/biden. Congratulations on being one of the mindless party patrons! If you buy into either party and can only speak badly of one party you need to...

But, but-but.... Drsteph, don't you know that a tax rate of 47% and the future currency debasement from paying workers from fed coffers to create jobs, loaning directly to students with a box checked on your income tax form, bailouts for every Tom, Dick and Harry that gets into financial trouble...

Do something altruistic. Join an organization working for something you want to believe in. Spend your time working for something besides money. Do you have a belief system. Joining and practicing one can bring you more completion than making money. Get into a hobby/art/physical...

Money market accounts:D

Now thats a stupid thing to say. We were in the midst of a crazy run in tech that was over pumped and stimulated. At some point it had to crash. The crash happened just after Bush took over then you got a nice buy op in 2003. Now we're toppy again and have to work off the 30 years of never...
