Surely there are some ET BTC $Millionaires.... any BTC $Billionaires here?

No, you're fine. You can mix sticks of different size, but you cannot mix ECC and NECC. In older model Dell mobos, you could use either ECC or NECC, your choice. In newer models apparently you have the choice to run "Xeon + ECC", or "i5/i7 + NECC". Still can't mix RAM types. (In case you...

Volume is NOT helpful... it's actually hurtful. I understand the conventional wisdom. Years ago I used it somehow... then one day I noticed it no longer correlated with market moves... so I dropped it completely. And then there's the point of logic.... Let's say you consider "price &...

Correct... if you HAD gold during that period... but how do you get the gold to protect yourself from the hyperinflation? Germans would have had to "cash out" all of their belongings, likely into DM, then buy gold with it. Few would have done that. Those that had gold, likely had a relatively...

Highly unlikely.... considering the price of gold "only about doubled" from say '33 through the Weimar period.

Inflation is the cover for government deficit spending... aka, "theft of citizens assets" in such a way that they don't recognize how they are being "frogged-in-a-pot". So, the government wants more of it at all times. :(

Not really. Inflation hedges "may" hold their value... until you figure in capital gains tax. IOW... if "properly" hedged (whatever that turns out to be) you still lose... just less than others. And speaking of Weimar... do you know that at its worst, the exchange rate of the Deutsch Mark was...

Any "real" asset is a potential candidate. But if the Fed pursues the "inflation push" far enough, it won't matter. You could have a $Bizzilion... and it won't matter when the currency devaluation comes.... you will be bankrupt, too. :(

Yes, I think so. If it's privately funded, shouldn't it be done "privately" as they want and not make a public point of telling the world, "whites not eligible"? Yet... they want whites to bend over backwards to not be racist in their eyes? Pot-kettle!

Everyone notice... ? Oakland, CA is initiating a UBI program... WHITES NOT ELIGIBLE! That's about as racist as can be! How is it that only white people can be "officially" racist? :(

Seems a reasonable solution... convert some of your BTC to cash and transact with that... rather than trying to "transact with BTC directly". At least so far, BTC is not a good "transaction medium". Am I wrong?

LOL! Aren't Cinderella and the Three Sisty Uglers all white? Like, "it's all bogus unless Cinderella is of color"? Gimme a break!

If that's ECC RAM, you got an even better deal. It's quite a bit more costly than NECC.

CORRECTAMUNDO! The Genius Founders gave us 2A... not primarily to defend ourselves against robbers and thieves... but to defend ourselves against GOVERNMENT... BOTH FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC!! ("Domestic" is the applicable concern these days.) The Dems threaten our freedoms and liberty at every...

Agreed. It's a grab bag of rules and regulations. All contrary to the 2nd Amendment, of course, which says "right to bear arms shall not be infringed". Aren't all of these state laws "infringements" on 2A?

In some states you can use your weapon to "defend someone other than yourself". In other states you might face prosecution for doing the same. :(

"To defend your person, you need a hand gun. To defend your home, you need a carbine or a shotgun. To defend your liberty, you need a battle rifle!" Sounds right to me. (I live in Colorado, a "castle doctrine" (Leftist) state. That basically means that you can't use deadly force on...

People like to toot their own horn when they've done something good. "Annualizing" is a way of projecting that same performance into the future... which we all know is BS. If you want to tout your results, they need to be good enough for long enough. Nothing else matters.

In addition to my other "hats", I'm a CFP... used to run a financial planning practice for fee. Number one objective was to get out of debt and stay out. Sounds like you've got that going. (I like the idea of putting your routine bills on credit card and collecting cash back.) A little...

The Boy Scouts have a slogan, "Do a good turn daily". If we all did just one little useful or kind thing each day, the world would be a much better place.
