Agreed. They had to work way too hard to explain the murder plot at the end because there was no way the audience was going to deduce it.

When your deposits pay 0.02% …

Anything to do with reports of air travelers getting more rowdy? People with money trying to escape to a different part of the plane? I personally can’t stomach paying that much more to get to the same place.

Or at least only be a trader with fun money you’re able to lose. Cramer calls it “mad” money, for others it’s a substitution for other forms of gambling. It can satisfy an itch and give you a reason to stay interested, but it shouldn’t be your base plan.

Important also to note that there is a huge outcome difference between a 20-year return annualized at 18% and one annualized at 6%. The odds are always in your favor but the outcomes are indeterminable.

Markets are most often roiled by the things that come unexpected, not the things everyone is talking about. If the news cycle is dominated by Trump’s antics, it’s less likely that his policy will be the thing that shocks markets.

US tilt was the better answer for much of the last two decades. It’s possible that’s changing now and I see no good reason to go all in on either. Diversify, diversify, diversify.

He means that we (investors) are the house because the odds have always been tilted in our favor. Just like a casino has odds that always benefit them. Doesn’t mean you can’t lose big, but if you follow simple rules, the odds are you’ll come out ahead.

What makes you think impeachment and conviction would actually do anything? GOP going to go over and ask for the keys to the White House and he just goes to Mar-a-Lago to pout?

And how many US protestors have died under this regime so far?

He put up a fence and they used ladders, he deploys drones and they use tunnels. This is 3rd grade problem solving.

Agreed, much weaker than the others and much too confusing to even stand a chance of piecing together on your own.

Maybe he can’t be found guilty, but he doesn’t have to be to be sent to CECOT by the next president

People can have any amount they want withheld from their paycheck for taxes, it can also include retirement, healthcare, FSA, HSA, life and liability insurance, and countless other deductions. This screenshot tells you nothing useful for a tax argument.

But you’ve paid for military defense, national parks, infrastructure that you use daily, etc. unless you’re using absolutely nothing, it’s not like that’s lost money. In many other developed nations you might work half the year before “keeping” anything for yourself.

The truth is you can do whatever you want with your wealth, including *not* leaving it to your kids.

And maybe just hold her in a cell for a while without any real charges so that she can’t just be pardoned and released. Kinda like what ICE does.

He’s not telling you to give Trump credit for anything. He’s saying that republicans just proposed a mini version of UBI and that’s counter to their rhetoric. He’s pointing out the irony of it.
December 20, 2025 at 8:58 PM
I understood what you meant by the post. The party of “anti handouts”/“down with socialism” just proposed monthly checks that could be used for anything, very socialist idea. It’s not enough to live even a minimal life on (what many may associate with UBI), but it’s still not on brand for them.

How convenient, it wouldn’t be suspicious except for the data reporter’s predecessor having been fired over higher numbers.

Sounds like the same inflated prices he ascribes to most of his real estate, at least in public.
December 17, 2025 at 1:57 PM
It’s probably how he parented.
