You are probably better off saving your money until you have 5K or better to invest in higher quality stocks. If that 1K is important to you, then don't invest it if you are going to be upset if it is gone in a month. But, if you do lose the 1K, consider it the price of Tuition for learning...

I am currently using Google Chrome and Duck Duck Go. I downloaded Firefox and added DDG as an extension. I have about 28 shortcuts on my Bookmarks Bar. I tried to find something that would allow me to transfer my bookmarks but I can't find anything. I thought it would be easy because I...

I know this thread is 6 months old. But, I recall that one time I was looking at the annual report (2016, 2017 ?) for GS and it listed the number of successful Trading Days that they had, and it was 250/250. They made money everyday the market was open. Just for curiosity, I tried to find...

From what I understand, if you try to starve yourself during a diet, your body shuts down and you don't lose weight as fast as you would if you monitored your diet and exercised more. But, I don't understand how you could gain weight, unless they are either drinking excessive amounts of water...

I try to eat a balanced diet. I eat chicken one day, fish, red meat.....pork every other week....... I don't count calories but I eat until I am satisfied, not until I am 'stuffed'. Perhaps I should though. I have to agree with your comments about Nutella. :) That stuff is addictive.

Thanks, but the thread is 2.5 years old and I have resolved the problem. I transferred all the data and bought a new laptop. Many thanks for your ideas though!

I don't think people should hang onto every word he says like it is infallible. I think the best resource he provides to viewers is the opportunity to consider alternatives that exist beyond FAANG. It's up to each individual to do their own research. I am still amazed at how broad his...

I think the legal system - lawsuit happy patients and overeager lawyers - are partially to blame. When I was in college, our professor told us that 1/2 of the cost of a new ladder was allocated to liability and insurance. I am sure he was talking off the cuff, professors do that a lot. But...

CNBC offers tours? It sounds like fun. I never heard it suggested that Cramer referred to investing as a sport, but I see it now. Thanks

When Cramer broadcasts Mad Money, he displays a scoreboard on the back wall. It has a picture of a bull and bear, as well as the current date. Today it said 6-18 for the date and below that it was 3 - 0. The date changes every day. That is obvious. But, I have never been able to figure...

Thanks for all the suggestions !

I think they should worry a little. SV's best days are behind it. It's still the best place in the world for IT talent and new ideas, but they have become a victim of their own success. Even if you make 100k a year, you can't have an apartment without a roommate, maybe 2-3. Homes in the SF...

Texas is huge. Dallas/Ft Worth , Houston, San Antonio and Austin are all doing well. Many people from rural, country areas are moving to these cities. But so are people from other states. I see a lot of license plates from other states. Texas has a diverse economy, but it does even better...

If so many acres are not being planted, would this that the price of corn might rise in the Fall? Is it too late to plant anything else this year? Fall and snow come early in the Dakotas, MN etc... ----- How do they know how many acres have been planted? Do farmers report to the USDA when...

This is PLAN B......EM Sculpt.........20,000 situps in 30 minutes........ But it's 3K for 4 sessions. I guess I'll stick to sit-ups and squats at home.. https://abc13.com/health/machine-gives-you-effect-of-20000-squats-in-30-minutes-/3471899/

If you got rid of the illegal aliens, it might not be so congested.

I live in the Dallas area. I see statistics every couple of weeks that make the Dallas/Ft Worth area shine like a supernova. I think 300 -350 people move into the area every day. More jobs are created here every year than in many states. If you can't find a job in the area it is because...

Thanks for the last link. It's a good idea to focus more on form than numbers. Maybe I should do that instead. BTW, APFT stands for Army Physical Fitness Test and the instructor is reading from the manual. They have to read the test standards word for word before every Physical Fitness Test...

I do a fair amount of exercising, but I need to reduce the intake of the bad stuff. My meals are healthy, but I need to lose the in between meal snacks. And the bad habits like soda and snacks. Does Creatine have any benefit?

They post remarks about people in the investing community that make outrageous claims and dispute their credibility: People that claim they are hedge fund managers and live in a single wide trailer. People that imply that they are 20 something year old millionaires, but live at home with their...
