Who is this person? I feel like I don't know you anymore.

Yep, 10k average viewers for those 'washouts' means a few hundred thousand a year to spectate the pros games.

The thing about getting rich in an investment (real estate, crypto, stocks) is that you have to SELL THE ASSET AND REALIZE THE GAIN. Just like everyone says that it isn't a loss until you sell.....well it isn't a gain until you sell either.

I saw my AHK Flask macro on my desktop today and thought about re-installing.... Just kidding, fuck GGG and their shit ass decisions.

This just in... NA fucking sucks. If the joke that is C9 is the best we can vomit out every year then why even send anyone to Worlds? Do they make enough money for it to be worth losing 90% of their games?

I usually don't care about big downturns because that means all the 401k contributions are dollar cost averaging like a motherfucker right now; but I have a rollover 401k with Fidelity that has no money going into it and thinking of it just sitting there going down just feels bad. I guess I'm...

I agree with most of what you are saying besides housing. Rents are insane because people a.) value the idea of "living close" so much that they are willing to bid up rents higher inside of cities and close suburbs instead of saving some money and living further away, b.) take *slightly*...

Of course, my boy Thomas Sowell torpedoed this fallacy 8 years ago. Bootstraps, indeed.

Look at fucking conservative bootstrapping Mist over here.

These are the people that I am most concerned about since it is always the lowest rung that gets hit the worst in recessions. How can we say that we are different than the Left if we ignore and/or exacerbate the very things that can assist them in making their lives, and by extension their...

They seem like starter homes to you because that is what you have seen as the quaint little houses for a new couple that has 1 kid or is trying since you have been old enough to appreciate the market. This is almost exactly the same house that I grew up in (same neighborhood) with parents, a...

I think the decline is coming because builders are building the type of houses that people could/would buy when money was cheap but now with the price of everything going up people are going to choose houses that they need, not that they want. So builders who have houses with tons of bonus...

Damn, I didn't realize the insanity had reached that far out. Those are all too big to be true starter homes; it is what the current generation has been conditioned on as a starter home. In truth those prices say to me that Dallas and its suburbs are a terrible place to have a starter home...

That's why I said 15%; I don't think we need high unemployment to get this decline because the meteoric COVID rise had no basis outside low rates and those are gone. My house 'value' went up roughly 33% for no reason and now that rates have more than doubled the priced in my neighborhood are...

It should be equal to the COVID rise, but I'm going with 15% (should be 25%).

Why does everyone think that starter homes are in the middle of well established, already costly suburbs? If you are looking for a starter home in North Dallas then you are already out to Melissa or Anna and commuting in. That's like looking for a 'starter home' in the Woodlands north of Houston.

Boston has never improved a single thing....unless that thing was leaving Boston. Instant improvement.

No dice, I'm going to shit all over every other team until we start winning again.

@Foggy, I know you are having a great time right now and are probably drunk; but I need you to help me. How do I handle having a terrible team as my Alma mater? You've handled it with such grace this past decade that I am really counting on you to show me the ropes.

Bro, there is no talent on this team and now the offense sucks too. I don't see 1 win.

Well I nailed it here. What the holy fuck. I guess its a good thing I live in Houston since I never hear a word about the Big 12 unless I go looking. Holy shit. Edit: Enjoy Kansas as your Big XII champions.

This also starts happening inside of Fortune 500 companies where the goal stops totally being about money and starts to be about public perception and marketing. Competent employees are more at risk because there is a much larger bottom line to hide missing a few if you can pump those ESG numbers.

I have a hard time hating UT (and OK State) fans when it is not sports related because I have had to work with them closely for the last 2 decades. I have lived in Houston for ten years and can say that ATMs fanbase is more around 40% normal people and 60% delusional fucking retards that are...

Yep, my kids are going to flip their shit over this one.

Yep, I posted that and then saw the video. Moving on.

If I remember correctly, the slaves were well treated under Louis and liked him; it was only when they learned that he was a vampire (and was using his slaves as food) that they revolted and burned the plantation to the ground.

I hate the term union because of its negative connotation with Public Unions and their ability to strike for anything since the people paying them are paying them with unlimited government coffers. On the other hand, think of how different the Twinkie bakery union vs. company fight would have...

For any other team I'd say that this is loser talk for the team that doesn't expect to win. Oh God.

That is all good news.

PREFACE: I am mainly ignorant of the inner workings of the stock market and how it allows companies to be valued and then that value to translate to shares that are used to vote for "public" actions at board meetings even though they are dominated by insiders. Through many years of working...

We have also had a real issue with what a "starter" home should look like. A newlywed couple with no kids does not need a 3000 sq ft 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms with a bonus room, media room, and second master suite; they need a 1000 sq ft 2 or 3 beds and 1 or 1/2 baths and no extra rooms...

Housing needs to be affordable to make sure that there is an "American Dream" to strive for if you are in the lower class. HOWEVER, that does not mean that housing in large cities needs to be affordable. We need a shift in the culture where small/medium sized companies go to small...

I have not looked at any of my portfolio's since the beginning of this year. I am passive only because I do not have the time or knowledge to do what you all in this thread do. I know that if I look at it then I am going to start really caring about the markets moving until they go back...

Am I the only one who loved the poison zone? It brought out my inner ARPG grind mentality. Also random so semi-roguelike. I was secretly hoping they made more optional zones like that in the next one.

The first one seemed to last longer than 40 hours; was it really that short?

Jesus Christ. That is all.

I was thinking the other day about how bad it is for banks that the interest rates on houses are double what they were a year ago and how that means there is going to be way less people borrowing money from them. I understand that they are getting the money at X rate and have to lend it out at Y...
