Of course .... me!

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 have a friend of 45 years who I have never been romantically involved with but when I visited her a few weeks ago for about 11 hours .....

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.

Got another one for you, Vin https://x.com/yswaters/status/1769044897120583908?s=20 Sound on I liked hearing this one from Nikki Haley each time I heard her speak numerous times: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/sep/01/nikki-haley-us-senate-mitch-mcconnell-nursing-home Nikki Haley calls US ...

I looked at value funds really hard and couldn't bring myself to believe in them. I think for a value fund to continuously work it would have to be a highly active fund. From what I could remember, all of the historical out performance is based on indexes that were not actual funds during the out p...

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 do...

When did acknowledging that your institution is on “Located on Occupied and Unceeded XYZ Ancestral Homelands” become a thing?

Is it anything other than empty virtue signaling?

I have yet to encounter this. What are examples of this?

Yet another example of how the Value Stock Geek consistently sends an email with an email date about 2 weeks prior to it actually being sent. I was in the email box yesterday and it had nothing left in it about 24 hours ago. The email was not there. Today it is with a 2/21/24 date. My educated gues...

I only have had 3! And, have not had more than that in over 30 years. And, that was only briefly. You mean this isn't your house? ;D https://www.simbasible.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/1-6.gif I did live somewhere where we it was a "no pets" policy and we "only" had 2 dogs and...

JavaScript still sucks. >:D Do you like Python? I’ve played with it a little bit. Just an amateur interest. I love Python. Much like Ruby, it's a language that just gets out of the way and lets the programmer enter a state of flow and focus on the task at hand. With JavaScript I feel like I'm tryin...

Dana Carvey on Biden and the border O0 https://youtu.be/uOQYQ6ptIyE Thanks for this! I have got through listening to the first two hours of Robert Hur testifying at the House. All of a sudden it hit me that the Biden defenders / supporters main message is: "Your honor! Yes, my client is a murd...

I agree to a great extent. However, it’s not about just wealth, but value, Barrett. New treatments for ailments, the democratization of the cellphone, etc. Granted there are all kinds of problems — surprise medical costs & out-of-pocket health insurance rates; unaffordable housing, and so forth...

I could not tell if I received a response to my tweet.

But he did respond by following me so I followed him back.

He’s on twitter @ValueStockGeek
Maybe you could ask him what’s up if you have an account there.

After today receiving one dated February 28th .. I both responded to that email asking plus sent this tweet to him:

The vast majority of what I pass on in Facebook of others' Facebook posts are those related to cats!

Whither Smithers?
Still abroad?

Yes. You reminded me. With him being where he was / is ... we needed daily reports to tell us he was in no danger.

I wonder what percentage of politicians are genuinely concerned with telling the truth? For example the “women’s rights” dressed up mantra that allows/condones killing of a human being. Or as we once heard, you can put lipstick on a pig but it’s still a pig. https://www.factcheck.org/2024/03/factch...

Well it looks like Jonathan M. Katz has caught
@SenKatieBritt
in a pretty significant lie.

A lot of email is sorted by newest first, Vin. If what you say is true then those older date emailers are doing the exact wrong thing. Do email programs give you the choice of either newest or oldest first? I just checked with my ancient Eudora email which I use for person. It always has oldest on ...

Thanks Vinny! Was reading through the transcript. Very interesting. I’m going to listen to the whole podcast over the next few days. I do a lot of "no mind" work at this computer, i.e., work that is mainly inputting that does not require all of my brain, so it gives me an opportunity to l...
