You know a Coleman whose interview is really worth listening to?

Ronnie Coleman. Absolute LEGEND.

I'm sure you guys heard that Charlie Munger passed away recently. This article detailing some of his investment wisdom and principles was a nice and quick read.

Lately, I’ve been having trouble on other websites that were temporarily solved when I deleted some selections from the cache, and perhaps permanently solved when I created another Profile in Safari. Now, every time I visit this site , I have to re-login even though I click the Remember Me box. I t...

Did you guys see/listen to the Joe Rogan podcast with Dwayne Johnson?

Johnson had so many interesting stories to tell, but Rogan kept talking over him. It was very frustrating.

Smithers, for a dedicated gym guy, you eat a lot of sweets, don’t you?
Or does it just seem like it

And honestly I only bought that Snickers bar because I just happened to watch that particular episode of Seinfeld.

Smithers, for a dedicated gym guy, you eat a lot of sweets, don’t you? Or does it just seem like it I will have you know that the big guy himself, The Rock, used to eat a Snickers every day before training! ;D https://www.usatoday.com/story/entertainment/celebrities/2022/11/29/the-rock-dwayne-johns...

Question for you guys.

How big is your residence? How many people live there? And is the ratio of square footage to people comfortable?

I didn't realize Spotify had an ad-supported plan that is free. Huh.

I guess I'm back to listening to Joe Rogan. First up is his interview with Elon Musk.. they're eating pizza on the podcast lol.

All look excellent. Thanks! Already have passed it on to one other.

His speeches and interviews are also excellent and insightful!

I wanted to share something I found with you guys. This is a great list from Michael Saylor regarding his rules for life. I find this list very practical, and much less convoluted than the 12 rules (and eventually 24) that Jordan Peterson espouses.

Ah, the glorious age of AI-generated content! Because who needs the messy unpredictability of human creativity when you can have algorithms spitting out prose that's as profound as a fortune cookie written by a particularly lazy seer? I mean, why bother with the nuanced beauty of human expression wh...

I'm currently dating a girl from Ukraine. She moved here to escape the war that was happening in her home country.

Obviously the war is heinous and tragic.. but if it hadn't happened, she wouldn't be here. Really makes one think.

I would rarely ever listen to an audiobook since it is so inefficient for me to get through a book. The average speaker speaks about 200 words per minute while I can read 900 words per minute. Therefore I'm not going to listen to a book. But I do now have time to listen to podcasts. For me it reall...

After KBG listed several Lex Fridman podcasts as being useful to understanding what is going on in Israel I've made a concerted effort to listen to ALL his podcasts since the last time I'd listened to one. I've been able to do so because with the change in weather I'm now almost exclusively indoors...

Alright, for my next trip: New York or Las Vegas? Which one, and why?

Definitely New York City. Las Vegas has a singular focus while New York City is multi-faceted.

Good point. The place I'd love to visit the most is the New York Stock Exchange.

Also, the pizza of course lol!

Las Vegas, because it’s not New York. O0 Hahahaha. Is that because New York is sort of known as an unpleasant city? From what I understand, there are some parts of town and some people that are rather unpleasant. I often imagine that Hong Kong was sort of the New York of Asia, and there were defini...

The real issue I suppose is how does an old person get gold across the country from one safe deposit box to another if relocating to be closer to kids and possibly going into assisted living? That elder isn't going to drive... I don't think they want to take, say, 60 oz of gold through TSA checkpoi...

hah! The bow tie is just the right color.

Hehe. I got the little suit in Hong Kong. It was so cute I just had to buy it!

I haven't seen any discussion of CEF for quite a while. As I recall, some here were unhappy with its acquisition by Sprott a few years back. Does anyone here still hold it? What is your current thinking on this fund? I used to hold it because it was a convenient way of getting both gold a silver ex...

Nice, Smithers!

My parents got scammed again. Damn, they’re getting old. That’s twice in two months.

What happened?
