    Tsla

    yeah, and I sat in a Carrera GT and i also want one. does that mean I'm gonna buy one? no. how many people are gonna spend $60k to $100k for a model S when a gasoline vehicle with comparable performance goes for $35-45k? don't even compare this with the Apple/Windows argument. People buy...

    Tsla

    pure electric vehicles are a fail, and will continue to be for many years. EVs are selling poorly. cars like the Volt and Leaf saw sales declines after the initial buzz wore off. Look at the performance and fuel economy of hybrids or even pure-gasoline cars like the Sonata . they...

    New American Dream is Renting;

    renting is better strictly from a financial standpoint, but from a practical standpoint owning is better. If you prefer to live in higher-end neighborhoods, as i do, you won't find many rentals. In my area there are ZERO rentals, so if i wanted to rent here i couldn't. My choices were to buy...

    Broker for $500K account size

    IB gives access to some hedge funds. i don't know what the minimum account equity is before you have access to them, but i see them on my account page. But if you want to be connected to the major hedge funds, your account is way too small. they have 7-figure minimums maybe you're looking...

    Why an MRI costs $1,080 in America and $280 in France

    The medical industry has a stranglehold on the government, and they are controlling the labor pool. They don't want more doctors because that would drive salaries down. do you know which lobby spent the most money last year? Most people think it was some bank or big oil, but nope, it was...

    Rich people are nasty?

    that's interesting, because I've dealt with a lot of people from the lower-income class, and most of them are coniving, lying deadbeats who I wouldn't trust with $25. there are some rich people like that too, but I'm more likely to trust a rich person than a poor person. Bottom line: if...

    Banker struggles on $350,000 a year

    This is just a trolling article intended to incite class warfare. it amazes me how folks are so gullible that they just don't see it. maybe 'stupid' is a more appropriate word than gullible Now i know how people like Hitler came into power. it's simply too easy to fool the average person...

    How to tip like a 1 percenter

    am I the only one that smells bullshit with this story? It sounds like an unemployed and bitter liberal somewhere is just trying to stir the pot, and what better way than to concoct some wild story about a stingy banker? can anyone tell if the the censored parts of the pic were done by...

    Paying Your Employees So Little That Most Of Them Are Poor?

    lol, is this blog a joke or something?? back in HS I knew people who worked these types of jobs (McDonalds, etc). Dedication is the last word i'd use to describe them!! They'd call in sick friday or saturday because there was some big party that night. there's a reason they're basically...

    Whitney Houston

    Ms. Tyler shouldn't have sung the anthem, either live OR recorded!

    Whitney Houston

    she had talent no doubt, but i lost respect for that anthem performance when I found out it was lip synched. If you can't sing the anthem live, you shouldn't stand up there pretending to sing it.

    Cars

    don't make me laugh. the only way a Tesla beats a 911 Turbo or anything comparable is on a very short track where the cars can only get up to 120 mph. after 20 seconds from a standing start, the Telsa would be a faint dot in the rearview mirror of the other cars. oh hell, even a Camry V6...

    Why does California have so much industry/jobs?

    santa clarita is a beautiful city nestled in a valley. Very safe, affordable. The downsides are: because it's somewhat inland it can get hot in summer (into the 90s, occasionally low 100's). and the commute is atrocious, which isn't a problem for you but it will be for your wife. CA schools...
