Re: BTC in the PP
There is barely a mention of bitcoin on page 16. Should I move the posts? Ugh Anyway, I saw an announcement that Proton Wallet (from the Protonmail team) is now out there for anyone to use. I got one. Not doing self-custody at the moment, but maybe I’ll move everything (Marc de Mesel’s gift) to it e...

Re: The GOLD scream room
I have to agree with the final sentence. And I’d forgotten about the chlorinated chicken 😬 I use a farmers market because I’m spoiled. What my wife perceives as wishywashyness in Trump is, I believe/hope, his advisors imploring him to cool it in some areas. I like his passion, and I like how he’s sh...

Vin, I see you’re reading ‘The Power Broker.’
I saw Robert Caro in person, giving a talk at my local library a few years ago. Awesome.

Re: Harry Dent: ‘Crash of a Lifetime’ Coming in 2024
Global birth rates dropping as women have increasing access to contraception and education. This lead sentence could have been written for how many decades now? It’s so much more than that, though. In China, young couples often decide that it doesn’t make sense to have kids when they can barely tak...

Re: Marc De Messel Portfolio
Ahahah Why it was so difficult to have like 5% of capital in bitcoin? Why we are so afraid? 😳 PP followers may be averse to risk … ? Risk averse, for sure, frugal. I don’t want to be boring, but think of it this way: Pascal’s Wager, if I have it right, is the premise that you should believe in God ...

Oh, I like them a lot. I think I must have discovered them via satellite radio, which I don’t have anymore.
Fun band to listen to.

Re: The GOLD scream room
While the DOW is down 1% right now (3:00PM EST), gold is holding fast at 2860$/oz. That leads to the question of ... what is mathjak doing in reaction to that??!! Perhaps selling gold? I don’t think I would be very good at day-trading gold, myself, but I am very happy that CraigR & Harry Browne...

^ EDV is very long-term treasury bonds including zero-coupon/STRIPS

I've held it for years at a loss.
I think PFIX is one of those funds that mathjak was hawking recently ^
