  1. It's from google AI. Seems like I heard a similar story from the 20s, but instead of a shoeshine guy, it was a taxi driver. Maybe that was JFK's father ?
  2. Nothing wrong with making predictions, but I definitely avoid it. I went to Jackpot Junction Casino at least once a week from 1995 to 2000. One of the waitresses I knew really well, greeted me with this one day in late 1999. "which brokerage firm is the best, I'm going to invest everything in Internet stocks and retire in a year" “J. P. Morgan tells the story of how he would get his shoes shined every Wednesday at the same shop around the corner from his office. One day the shoe shine attendant asked him if he and his friends could buy some stock through Morgan’s brokerage. The three friends had about $40—a lot of money in 1929. Morgan politely refused, hurried back to his office, and ordered that his company was not to have a single share of stock on its books by the end of the day. Morgan simply asked, “If the shoe shine boys are buying stocks, who else is left?” Of course, the 1929 stock market crash was only a few days away, and Morgan looked like a genius. He was not a genius; he noted that the order flow was likely running out on the buy side. It wasn’t his army of analysts that showed him that. It was a public investor.”

    Evening/Night Posting Ain't What it Used to Be

    Didn't know J Geils covered that song. Only knew this version by George Thorogood.
  4. It's huge. I've consolidated almost all of my investments/money at Fidelity over the years. Makes my taxes so easy as all it takes is one click and it downloads everything into H&R Block tax software. On the other hand, I sometimes think I shouldn't have so many of my eggs in one basket.
  5. Even though I don't own any gold, I'm impressed by the fact that it continues to go up even though the vast majority of 'influential' people around the world always put it down. Would be sweet if Fort Knox turned out to be empty! I went on a JFK 1964 1/2 dollar buying spree on eBay in 2017 ended up with a little over 1400 coins @ an average cost of around $6.70
  6. Asset allocation is important. Have a large taxable account, 2 different IRAs, a 401(k), & an HSA at Fidelity. Managed a small gain yesterday, & only down slightly today. $10,065.75 (-0.57%) Added Powell Industries POWL @ $176.00 "

    OJ Simpson dead at 76.

    OJ never murdered anyone.................. he did however butcher a couple people. The not guilty verdict was simply a form of reparations.

    Hardcore troubadour is literally going to put it into the economy.
  10. Not defending fast food, but if they go to the grocery store and buy the crap in the frozen food aisle (frozen pizza-lasagna-banquet pot pies, etc or BAR S hotdogs, or the so-called healthy meals like healthy choice, which is still garbage, is it really going to improve anything ?
  11. Same here. Large taxable account, 2 IRA's, 401'k & HSA https://www.imagebam.com/view/MEZRSXM

    Who is the most liked geek?

    That wasn't the question. That implies that I have a vested interest in the forum, which I don't. As for the question,,,,,,I don't know if he does or not, but I'll repeat what I've already stated. If you don't like the comments from certain members here, block them. No one has the GUARANTEED right to never be offended by something they read online. It's not perfect, but ignoring them is a reasonable solution. FYI: I have 10 geeks on my ignore list.

    Who is the most liked geek?

    Hoping for a site to be policed.........no thanks. The fact that it isn't heavily policed, is what makes this site great. I don't remember the comments regarding the wildfires, but if a couple people here said some really truly vile things, she should've put them on ignore. Censorship is never a good thing. Regards
