Re: Daily "Check In" Thread For Us
Descaling the coffeemaker and trying not to inhale those nasty chemicals. It’s the most excitement I’m going to have all morning. You gotta do instant coffee! :D I like the name change! I do enjoy instant coffee when not at home and I’m not a total coffee snob but.. freshly ground beans, Smithers. ...

I'm getting ready to mow the grass - first mowing of the year/season. Oh the joy begins!image.gif Nice! It's still a little too cold up here in fridged Alberta, but it's definitely coming soon.

Re: What's the actual rationale for investing in long term bonds?
Who on the forum has actually had the fortitude to stick with the canonical PP's allocation to long-term bonds? Just curious.

Re: Why Value?
Whatever "style" you choose, whether it be growth, value, momentum, or total market, just make sure you commit to it. The best investment strategy is the one you can stick to. For certain! Mainly due to my own personal inertia mine has not changed since January 2003, 21+ years ago. I'm very impress...

Re: Why Value?
Harry Browne eventually moved from a collection of Growth stock funds to the S&P 500. A lot of pp’ers seem to like value stocks. I am still partial to value stocks. ^-^ Every once in a while, I look at the performance of growth stock funds and value stock funds versus VTSAX, Vanguard’s total domest...

What do you guys like to do for fun dates when you take your spouse out? Dinner and movie is nice, but it's overdone. Anything off the beaten path you guys like?

I am still perpetually grateful to Craig and Tex for introducing me to the PP. I wish Tex would also do another interview.

Re: New interview with Craig Rowland
What I found really interesting about the interview was Craig's insight on cryptographic systems being compromised and hacked. It's true. Bitcoin has proven resilient... so far. But it does rely on a relatively static security framework and a bunch of infrastructure to function. Gold is totally iner...

That is definitely Vinny’s house. What were you using Python for? Tinkering with AI? :) Just playing with programming for the sake of programming.

Re: What's the actual rationale for investing in long term bonds?
I see what you mean. For me the big challenge with the canonical PP is the idea of investing in LTTs regardless of what rates are. The lower rates are, the more the risk-reward relationship skews towards risk rather than return (return free risk). I ended up settling on a global government bond lad...
