Good thing PBS has no special interests ...

Worked in "technology" for almost 35 years and seen a lot of good and more bad than I care to admit out of large corp entities. Your comment is a bit too general to me. We have a young friend that just ejected from the AF after having serious issues from killing a few bad guys and significant...

Don't want my Tax dollars going that way either, but it seems like we are already far down this road as Skynet is already here officially: https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-06-25/aadhaar-skynet-death-glitch So I guess the race to build the Deathstar is on.

Yep, a Leftist concerned about prudent use of other people's money is fish/bicycle territory.

Zowie, I'd have to subtract the pretax cost of vehicle/fuel + a kicker for the value of 20 hours of your time/week and compare that to local job offers. Those autonomous Model 3's gonna get you.

Canadian voters have their work cut out for them. Are you sure Soros' company doesn't own your voting machines?

We moved 2 hr from any SMSA. Local expats in the last month I have met: Six from NH, 2 CA, 2 from FL. Maybe the OP's premise of a "city" as the only destination option is missing an interesting opportunity set? :^) T

Just another EBT:

LOL ... Amen. "Understand Classical Capitalism, do your due diligence, analyze unemotionally and simply never take a bad deal." Very good advice I received three decades ago from a wise old gent who was working on a Debtor in Possession deal. In it's essence, it ain't rocket surgery.

Disagree. Read carefully, Atlas Shrugged was partially a love story about the most valuable, attractive, focused lady engineer businesswoman in the world suited by the three most eligible bachelors in the world. I would marry a Dagny in a heartbeat. An absolutely amazing heroine, with the best...

I love tech as much as the next geek, except these prognostications omit one tiny detail where we have to double the power transmission capacity of the bulk electric grid ... uh ... and then more than double electric generation capacity if vehicular gas/diesel are outlawed as SiVal Touts want...

Buy backs converted to Treasury stock reduce Total Capitalization of the firm. Good for dividends and payout ratio if cash flow is good. Not good if Mgmt is coasting and getting nothing right. Lots to consider. Need the full picture.

Interesting comment. In your opinion, what would be an example of the "upper end" of "simple systems " that would be unproductive in volume these days? What do you see as the prime reasons for this? Best regards, T

Another thought: Do your inv in a self directed Roth to begin with and make sure you live in a state that is less apt to get tax grabby later because of some emergency they run into like unfunded bureaucrat retirement plans. Good luck.

Taking a longer term view, I can remember 35+ years ago when I would have been inexperienced enough to be taken advantage of to this degree. Fortunately I was able to pull myself up past that point before I got caught. I was plenty naive (really really naive), but maybe a little less trusting...

The validity of Pikety's thesis depends on focusing simply on capyield and growth 'only' ... as one more prop for his clearly academ-nemic, anti-capital leaning. Thousands of other parameters impact this and thus make his thesis as dismal as his field. (And if that doesn't square with your...

Flow batteries were originally designed for utility class energy storage. MW-hours. Interesting concepts. Energy Storage at all in market competitive rates is the holy grail for non-baseload alt energy viability. Price to performance w/o govt subsidy is the real hurdle IMHO. T

10x. Sounds nice. Care to share a couple weeks of that trade log to move your cred up a couple notches above other nubie winners here? T

Congrats on completing the Finance degree. Not a small accomplishment. How many hours a day are you spending on screening/taking trades now? T200

RT98, A fair amount of good advice has been offered to you here, but ... If you want serious help, redact the personal info with a black marker on your brokerage statement and simply prove your losses and sincerity. Otherwise you are not moving yourself or good ETs ahead. T
