Alex Cohen @anothercohen on X (link at bottom) My team caught someone who sent an AI to interview in their place. It sounds so crazy that I didn't believe it until I reviewed the transcripts: Interviewer: "Can you tell us about yourself?" Candidate: "Absolutely! I'm a passionate profe...

i keep it at about 1.50% of invested assets.

With your net worth, that's a lot of money!

I saw him on Fox Biz yesterday and he seemed ok, but…I’m still afraid to buy in, even though I love the concept of using it as a medium of exchange.

What happens when Michael Saylor owns all the bitcoin?

Check this out, Xan

Absolutely.

Interesting. This reminds me of an essay by… I can’t remember the name. It’s a website run by a very smart guy who uses a king from a deck of cards as the logo. You’ve probably read something by him. I’ll find it eventually and edit it in here. EDIT: Found it, or somewhat ironically, AI found it. Al...

P.S. This old thread was an interesting read through. Happy ending, too

But is he still alive?

It’s probably just a headline.
Vinny tends to paste those without making it explicit that someone else wrote it.
Still, there is a link (which I have not clicked).

Thank you, CJ

I thought the whole urine in jars thing was just a Vinny quirk. But Google Gemini confirms it's a great way to tend to your plants and garden. It comes from the frugal mindset. Why waste / throw out what has value. I feel cheated when I'm out and don't get to capture it! Or restated, stop pissing a...

A good day to be in LTT

I haven’t looked yet. Still rooting for long bonds, despite the safe-haven status doubts.

Fortunately dualstow talked some sense into me before the big drop and I went back to diversified investing.

Thank you, but I also talked sense into Greg when he was 4% in Tesla. Probably could’ve been rich

I don't think I saw this until today.
Yikes. Not good.

Tactical Assault Cat

I thought he asserted that the price of gold cannot be manipulated, even though everyone always decries manipulation by one entity or another.

Didn’t realize there was such an easy fix!

Settings/ Multitasking & Gestures/ Full Screen Apps.
No more floating windows!

I do like long bonds less than I did when I was younger. Even so, “simplifying” by removing them seems like simplifying one’s hand by lopping the thumb off.

China. Bit of medical tourism (nothing serious, just testing). And a bit of regular tourism. Trying to iron out the dates right now, actually.

Skyler is that spider that lives in the barn near Walter’s residence. Remember? The kid (Walt jr, aka Flynn) wanted to capture the spider and keep her in a box, but Walt explained that she should be free.

Sure does!
