Yeah, there is a fine line between gold is outperformerd by productive asset, and gold is useless because you need self reliance and it's all about bartering.

In order for gold to make you rich, you really need to have a world ending situation, I think most people don't expect that. Personnaly, I believe there is a strong possibility that over 2 years, it's going to make the western world stronger than before, as it's going to hasten its...

I had completely missed that one, thank you. It's really much better than you'd think by casually looking at the description. Reminds me a bit of kemono no souja erin.

Chloroquine preliminary results from thousands of patients should be out by the end of this week, should it be working as Chinese and Didier Raoult are saying, it could mean we've hit the bottom. Not saying it's going to instantly recover as much damage has been done, everywhere, but it could...

Same in France, the number of death / day has been stable for now 5 days. France / Italy / Spain might already have reached to top of the belly. The verdict should be coming soon on Chloroquine as well, which combined with mass testing would result in a risk of anything happening in the autumn...

In France they're (the government) already mentionning getting into Air France capital, and even possibly nationalize it. Looks like a lot of competition will die off from Coronavirus in this sector.

As bad as auto industry currently is, they're all dirty cheap. I'd be more concerned about Tesla than Ford. Tesla is entirely dependant on California and EU regulations, and it's very very hard to imagine that the current crisis won't shift from the "global warming" crisis to "all hands of deck"...

+1 for ZombieCruise.

I've started to put some money back, I was at roughly 50% cash 50% equities, I'll try to reach that ratio again over 2/3 months depending on how bad it goes.

Public is very well aware, pharmacies / Amazon / etc.. have been out of masks for a while now. Everywhere.

Borowing yuans to buy canned Tuna

I'm going to start buying again early next week, I think. Probably a little bit each week for the next few months

I wouldn't mind playing again, but I haven't played since the last time around...

Probably some good opportunity to be had in industries in the west, it's really more and more looking like the end of China being the default manufacturer, and more and more businesses will look to secure more reliable sources of products. Western industries will have a hard time due to their...

I think i'll wait a bit for it to be on sale... even though that's one of the best game i've played lately

https://www.marketwatch.com/story/debris-found-in-fuel-tanks-of-some-undelivered-boeing-737-max-jets-2020-02-18 Has Boeing hit rock bottom at this point ? They really seem to have gone waaay too far into the cost cutting and managing through Excel spreadsheets, moving the HQ from Seattle to...

I kinda agree with, the market, the private sector in general is quite robust in the USA and even in the west in general. It's more problem of our government that had been mostly useless, let the CBs deal with the economy. And the only thing a CB can do is print money, so any time we had a...

We're not talking regular inflation, we're talking a massive crash when the monetary bubble burst. Maybe it won"t happen, maybe only in China, or just China, EU, or maybe everyone, maybe next year or in five. It's hard to look at the monetary supply and not think "it's gonna end badly". This...

Now seems like a very good time to poke alien viruses !

I think the biggest risk right now is holding cash, it could become worthless overnight, there's just too much of it. As expensive everything might seem (housing, stocks, gold,...) Everyone is using their monopoly money to get a hold everything, anything they can. That's why, imo, anything that...

I guess it's the cops doing God's work : don't date women with kids.

You really don't want a titanium stroller. Especialy in Europe or if you intend to frequently travel by plane. If it's anything like in France, look at what the yoyo stroller looks like, go to a place with a bunch of toddlers and notice 70%+ have this one, in the nice neighborhood. It's...

Yoyo babyzen is very nice, that's the absolute maximum you should allow your wife to pick, I got it for like 350€, basic one, and it's true the quality is good, it's quite light and it's convenient in planes. Those I know that picked uber expensive one, ended up regretting it, especially the...

Considering the outcome we're seeing in this forum, and probably around us, I would say, unless the kid is obviously not functional in society at all, do nothing is the best... I doubt any of us got any 'help' in any way, and indeed most would be diagnosed with various shit. My daughter was...

I've pretty much always spent more time with our daughter than my wife, sometimes A LOT more time, I've been working about a total of 600 hours a year since she was born, vs 1600ish for my wife, and I can tell you that our daughter has been glued to me from pretty much day 1. To me it seems...

Consequences of parenting might not be as long lasting as commonly thought, but short term consequences are very real, and bad parenting will easily turn your life into hell for one or two decades...

It's also worth noticing that China has been dominating the country for 20 years (they're about 80% of the FDI, they're selling weapons, they sent 10.000 to 20.000 people there). I'm sure these investment are really paying off for China. Oh, they're already giving up after 20 years ! I guess...

https://onemileatatime.com/boeing-737-max-pilot-simulator/ Seems to confirm what the guy from Mentour pilot was saying, 737 max isn't bad at flying, nor even especialy difficult to fly, it's just not the same beast as the others 737, so pilots should have a specific training for the 737 max. The...

No one was saying that race is the only factor, that being said, in the absence of serious studies it's difficult to say how much it is. I was looking into this kind of stuff for the savings, and it does seem that it's correlated...

Same gene but nowhere near the same environment. I guess that's your way of saying that massive social pressure + very religious people is good for the families ?

Still no end of 737 grounding in sight : https://www.seattletimes.com/business/boeing-aerospace/new-snags-add-to-uncertainty-over-boeing-737-maxs-return-to-service/ Faulty wiring on both max and NG, would require 7k planes to be fixed, probably not the most expansive thing to fix...

I have a friend married to a japanese woman, that always fly to korea and then to japan, cheaper than flying straight to japan. If you're in Busan, you can get a boat to Fukuoka for very cheap, like $50, 3 hours of boat.

And that's for the "reasonable" people, what I'm seeing is often in the line of : Get approved for X, look for stuff around X, find out that 1.15X is extra shiny, look for another bank that will approve 1.15X... End up eating noodles for the next decade.
