Surf Report

[Pekelo]

This thread is just sounding like a bunch of dumb gamblers/bets, and insecurities, dick measuring contests, and other juvenile stuff

You new here? This is the Surf Report, what were you expecting? It is like the Whose Line Is It Anyway?, the entertainment is priceless and the points (P/L) don't count for anything.

It should be retitled: Whose loss is it anyway?

OP shorted before the tax cut announcements. Oh dear

If Baron creates an entertainment forum where people can discuss various forms of entertainment, movies,music, shooting ranges, strip clubs etc. and relegates surfs postings and journal to the entertainment forum there will be fewer complaints and surf gets to continue his Walter Mitty act.

Hmmmm..? Never heard that before.

Those who show off with their "wealth" in general are not the rich ones. They are the fake ones.

I know a faker who bought himself a (second hand) Ferrari 348GBT. One day he had an accident but he had no money to repair the car. So he explained that this Ferrari was not good enough and he would buy a MacLaren. Years later he still has no MacLaren. The only thing he has is millions of new excuses, and a Ferrari wreck.

I also know another man who has a decent house and drives a Bentley. He is not part of the "millionaires club". He sold his business for over 2 billion$. But if people take him not serious, which happens every now and then because he looks like simple man, he will show his power. I remember that one day he wanted to buy a huge flat in the beach in a new building. The seller told him: "you know the prices of these flats?" The millionaire answered: "Call your superior."
Then the millionaire made an offer on four flats, one for each season.

Surf should change his strategy. He should not focus on the "millionaires club" as these people put all the money they have in showing off. They have no money left to invest. But the problem is that the real millionaires recognize people that behave like Marketsurfer.

Alexandre Van Damme is the biggest shareholder of Inbev, the biggest brewery group in the world. Net worth over 50 billion Euro. There is only ONE picture available about this man. When he discovered this, he moved to Switzerland for anonymity. He knows a lot of rich people all over the world, but you will never hear anything about this. The real rich stay low profile, not like Bernie Madoff.

Name calling and showing off should ring a bell.

Much of that article is falsehoods maybe designed to keep a class war from happening. Or just cherry picked examples to support the journalists contention

Old Warren for example owns multiple homes around the world. His frugal life is a marketing scheme and perhaps even a very smart security measure. I don't know, but it makes sense.

Everyday I look out my window and see dozens of Pershing @5- 25 mm a piece and other high performance yachts running at full throttle burning $500 plus in fuel per hour. Not to mention Numerous private jets and choppers flying overhead.

Stealth wealth is smart but it certainly is far from the way the majority of wealthy live.

These are the golden days, and its only getting better. Why live like a frightened rabbit?

Sometimes you are right, but the majority live wealthy and show it.

AVD sounds like he may have some issues unrelated to wealth.

Truth be told/- bernie lived a very modest life style in comparision to his scammed wealth. His house here is tiny, so was his boats etc-- in comparision to the other wealthy.

That's normal. In a Ponzy system you should always enough cash to pay back the smart people that want to get out. 1 blocked repayment and the Ponzi system crashes.

His house and boat where far too big as he made no money at all. Don't compare a cheater with the other wealhty. It is like comparing a bumb with someone making money.

Yes, correct. But in an earlier post--

Perhaps I misunderstood you. You stated

"He knows a lot of rich people all over the world, but you will never hear anything about this. The real rich stay low profile, not like Bernie Madoff."

Madoff stayed very low profile in relation to the money he had access to.

What do you mean by your statement?

No one is able to pay. One joker even needs to crowdfund.
