When my wife and I sold our business and got inheritance, we spread it around. We have money/stocks (trust and Roth IRAs) at Schwab, Fidelity, and my wife has an old Roth IRA at T. Rowe Price. We use Wells Fargo for banking. We each have two credit cards (no debit card) and an ATM each. We...

Please drop it and use the original song...It's so much better. When I would go to the one minor league game per year, they would play this song for a pitching change!!

RING RING RING RING RING RING RING...Banana phone!! Was thinking about this ETF again...Didn't want to restart a new thread. It now pays a 2.31% dividend. I currently have 200 shares in my Roth IRA...The options expired worthless. Was just thinking, this is a way to try an play gold with...

Schwab and Fidelity...I will wait for 5G to get to my town. I am sort of an old school guy...I have 1 ATM and two credit cards. I don't own a debit card...Don't want to have to clear up messes if they occur. Keep it simple stupid. I am not a day trader...That makes a difference. The...

I know this question has been asked before...Maybe here or on other forums. My DSL went down for a few minutes. I don't have a back up. I could use a phone app, but have chosen not to. With my trading style, I could go for days and not loose much money...Just opportunities to buy in a down...

When I first read the original post, I was thinking of regional banks and their ETFs. I own stock in IAT...But I also own two regional banks. I feel in someways they lift each other up. A bad earnings quarter may be softened by the steady holdings of the ETF. A bad quarter may cause pension...

I use to do leaps!! But with inflation, I am less likely to make that move. Here is an example I might do, if I don't really love the company I am buying. We'll stay with Citi (C). I could have bought it below $55 within the last month...Say $54.80. I would then sell the Jan 24 $55. for a...

Long story...I've shared it tons of times here. I'm 66 1/2...Two heart attacks. If I became incapacitated, I don't know if the trust department at the bank will fill/clear my trade positions. Also have a ton of cash...Think business person who sold out their business and retires...Paid the...

I had extra money in my Roth IRA...Trying to gain income, while I protect assets. Bought Citi today (100 shares) at $56.14...I then did a covered call. Sell to open Oct 22 at $60...I got $3.00 ($300.) for the option. Dividend is over 3.5%...Boring but stable.

It may mean diddly/squat...But, I bought stock in Blackstone. I usually do some research (about thirty minute to an hour per stock). I feel comfortable owning it...

For a month or two I have been wanting to buy McDonald's. But, just like Starbucks, I don't know if unions will push forward. Maybe they will take on MCD, but not the other burger players in the market. I feel the same way about Walmart/Target...

So many, but I'll just give you one. He was a grower of melons. He bought farmland cheap. He then developed packing sheds and had a very good working relationship with suppliers and grocery store chains. He controlled the whole chain to market. Was thinking of the Apple store or Gallo...

My second cousin read The National Enquirer for 30 years. He was a very successful business man...Died at 101. He read the Wall Street Journal every day. He call it his "main meal". He read the Enquirer...He called it "dessert"!!

Just want to talk out loud for a minute...Please talk me out of this buy. Currently Alibaba is trading (US) at $76.82...It got below $75. today. They own Ant Group...Which is like Pay Pal in China. Yeah, I keep an eye on the China market. I know about the delisting of companies (cooking the...

Wall Street Journal story...The port of Odessa may be key. If you can't read it...You can watch the video I believe. https://www.wsj.com/articles/russia-ukraine-war-threatens-wheat-supply-jolts-prices-11647115099

Examples...Oil and gas. Is it drilling or manufacturing or distribution...Any or all could be in it. Can you add shale production?? It can change unless the prospectus says otherwise. Here is PEO, Adams Natural Resources Fund's top ten companies...Oldest oil and gas related fund out there...

I know it's not much...But the Ukraine is the 9th largest wheat producing country in the world. I wonder how many land mines will end up there? Will the port in Odessa be of use or will it be bombed to nothing. Are Russian reserve soldiers involved with the winter wheat harvest...Will Russia...

I've had some money sitting around...Not knowing where to put it for income. I put in an offer last night for 300 shares of WEAT at $9.95...I picked it up this morning at $9.89. I then did a covered call for the Oct 22 $12. I got $1.65 for the 3 options...$495. minus Schwab fees. It's...

Hey, read a thread once in awhile...OK. I don't pay taxes. KO almost hit $62. on Monday...I feel I had a good entry point. I did get the dividend. As I write, KO is at $58.80...I am a real value investor nut!!

To you then (for me), it's a long term hold...Good quality stock with a good dividend. It also has future option money for me. It also sells glorified filtered water (Coke, Diet Coke, Dasani) for $1.00+ per 12-16oz!! People still buy this junk during down markets. What are you going to give...
