Re: Spend safely in retirement
I'm already retired so this advice won't do me any good but I have mostly followed this strategy to get where I am (just got my first SS check 10 days ago delaying to age 70 and it was almost the max amount you can get). One suggestion I would add is to start living on the budget you plan to have in...

Re: Trump's 4D chess strategy is winning
Yeah, you go ahead and believe it is all a coherent plan.... ::) I don't believe there is any coherent plan either. I think Trump mostly tweets because he doesn't like it if he goes very long without being the main subject of conversation on the news channels. If he's a "genius" it's like...

I don't know if there as an official name for this sort of bigotry yet but apparently you can get in a lot of trouble for denying that a man can get pregnant, as the doctor who was the leader of Planned Parenthood just found out. Maybe somebody should come up with a registry of terms so people on th...

Re: Will Trump be Re-elected?
I'm convinced that many people would sooner sacrifice their happiness and prosperity than forgo their insane obsession with Trump. In fact, I think Trump has become a one-size-fits-all excuse for many people for their failure to do anything productive with their lives. This is not hypothetical. Man...

However, I see nothing on the internet about the mechanism of action, even less about dosage or frequency. Is it something yo...

Re: Why are older gold coins often pricier than new ones?

Shall we also ban face masks for bank robbers? My point is this: If your intent is to enforce the law, as opposed to continually standing down, it doesn't matter one hoot whether the perp is wearing a face mask or not. The jail strip search pretty much bares all. A ban on masks for bank robbers pro...
