    I also use a spreadsheet to track all this stuff. For me it automatically keeps track of stocks, crypto, metals holdings..(makes daily entries on a time tracking sheet) I have to manually update (usually 3 times a week) 401k values, cash on hand, property values. I've posted graphs and other...

    It's a Gin company he owns (Aviator) and he also owns/owned Mint mobile. He seems to invest in a company, use his endorsement/fame to pump it, then in some cases sell it off. (I think he sold Mint mobile, but still owns Aviator gin). Same can be said for a lot of actors we really like, like...

    Deadpool & Wolverine

    But outside being a specifically famous actor, there's another more important bottom line.... That being that unlike many of his acting compatriots he's managed to actually accumulate enough net worth that now his acting is done on a "What he wants to do, when he wants to do it" level. (I think...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    I can confirm from personal experience pretty much every single thing said here... In the cities I rarely see speeding actively being enforced unless you're in the 15-20+ over range. At the advice of my ficticious legal counsel I am going to choose not to talk about exactly how fast i've gone...

    That's why I said they'd have to retrofit existing fabs. As opposed to Nvidia (and I THINK AMD, but not sure) who would have to build fabs from the ground up. I've literally done work in a bunny suit in a TI fab in the past. They're set up much like assembly lines and pretty modular. But...

    I think there are other chip manufacturers who would be in better positions. Texas Instruments for instance, they still have fabs in a lot of places (including here in Dallas). But IIRC they would have to massively upgrade/retrofit them to do modern density chip manufacture. That was what I...

    I wholly agree, but I think it should be a contingency consideration in there somewhere so that if it goes to hell, you're hedged in a way you don't have to think about other than sell the NVDA and cry over that loss. Just like I invested in URNM because I still believe that for the next 20-30...

    Here's a question I've been trying to hammer out an answer to. The NVDA play is obviously around the AI chip play, and it makes complete sense. But with the political situation involving Taiwan (where NVDA makes it's chips), what is the play if chip manufacture there is no longer viable...

    I think the larger flaw in all of this is that the BLS openly states that they change what is in the "basket of goods", but don't disclose what the "basket of goods" is. And over time there have been substantial changes in how the calculation was done, almost all politically motivated. It...

    It's strange how much I loved Waititi's work in WWDitS, and then in Thor:Ragnarok.... But then he made that abomination Love and Thunder, and I just can't stomach him at this point any more. It's like he got addicted to thinking his own farts smelled like roses.
