First, I'm shocked he was only 68. Second, who would've guessed cancer and not a heart attack or diabetes?

I think it's basically the big boys finally heading down to where the rest of the market has been. Everything has been in the shitter except for the top few companies, but because of their weighting, they've been making it look like everything in the market is great. The question will be, will...

Maybe that's why I couldn't get into Yellowstone. The setting was gorgeous, but the dialogue just left me bored. Although I do intend to try again at some point.

I like that smart phones were brought up, because I've been considering for a long time getting rid of mine. In fact, getting rid of a cell phone altogether. I probably never will just because of convenience, but I think my decade or so in IT left me pretty negative on most technologies. I'm...

So it's gained back 1 day of massive losses? It's down 30% in the last 2 months. What a dog.

Making my prediction now that we eventually fall to about 3100 - 3200 on the S&P, and it recovers to my 4150 mark made in the Stonks contest by the end of the year. Makes it a -13.5% year.

What you're talking about though is perfect market timing, just in a negative way. How many people bought the absolute top, and that was the only time they bought? And how many of those people held for a decade? People enter and exit the market at all kinds of points, and so this hypothetical...

I actually think it's the philosophical elements. For instance, the scene where Faith Hill is saying she never would've imagined her life turning out the way it was (heavily implying that it would've been a nightmare to her younger self), but that she wouldn't trade it. Or the one in this...

Gotta say, this might be one of my favorite shows in a long while. There's just something about it that's clicking for me. I have almost no complaints.

That seems incredibly unlikely she'd be able to hear it from 2000 miles away.

I don't understand why they'd be going with a bunch of comedic actors (outside of Chase Stokes). That makes me think this will be trash.

Oh, well, maybe read my post. It was the Brazos River which is only about 50 miles from Fort Worth. Which I'm fine with taking time (they probably only move a couple miles a day), but they've had a ton of people die. Also, the Yellowstone area would come before Oregon. It's not the Oregon...

My wife read it too and after I think maybe only 3 episodes told me I could delete the rest and stop downloading them.

How does that answer my question about how many episodes they're planning on making of this?

This episode was a bit of a miss for me. Still decent, but things like the daughter knowing how to play piano (I imagine only the wealthy or musicians would in the 19th century) and knowing the entire song without sheet music took me out of it a bit. Not being familiar with Texas, the Brazos...

I didn't fill the hopper all the way, and then didn't realize how quickly it'd chew through them. It's my fault, but at the same time, I probably used a good 15 pounds of pellets. Even with my cheap bag from Sam's, that's still like $5-6 in pellets for a single pork butt.

It was probably about 40. I thought the same thing. And once the sun went down, it also dropped into the mid 40's fast. Florida going through a bit of a cold spell right now.

Got the smoker Tuesday and did the burn off that evening. Smoked a pork butt yesterday. It definitely burns through a LOT of pellets. Seems like a very expensive way to smoke compared to the electric one. I actually ran out and didn't realize, which set my cook back by at least an hour I'd guess...

In fairness, you probably need a log graph. It still doesn't look great, but it's not as bad.

PLTR down 6.5%!

Man, that's quite the drop to kick off the morning.

All they talked about was CAPM in 2009 when I went, too. Although I didn't go to a fancy T1 business school like you, so that could account for that.

That sucks. 65 is a pretty good run though. Doesn't feel like he should be that old.

I think we've turned the heat on two days this winter. Even where we were in California we had the furnace on from December through early February.

PLTR at the lowest it's been since November 2020.

Yeah, I was going to say too, growing up with the Oregon Trail game (wife and I both fall in the Oregon Trail generation), maybe this is like finally seeing it in motion over 30 years later.

Really enjoying this through the first three episodes. I feel like I haven't really ever seen a movie or tv show dealing with wagon train settlers. There's probably something I just never watched like Little House on the Prairie or Little Women that might have been like that, but I don't believe...

GME on a tear after hours. Up almost 30% 35%.

If it's a Roth, just buy whenever. 30 years from now it's not going to matter if you bought at x or x plus/minus 10%. Even now that I'm retired, these moves don't mean much. I'm not liquidating my entire portfolio. If I have to withdraw like 3 years in a row when it's down, sure, that starts...

You all do this every time. It's not even a 2% drop. These aren't significant. Stop sky is falling every time the market isn't setting a new all time high.

A lot of the "have bonds in your portfolio" advice came when bonds were in a sort of bubble for about 30 years. Bonds sound great when they're paying out 4-5%. That era is long since past. Bonds are mostly a drag on your portfolio now. Granted, part of this is because the equities markets are...

And it was incredibly obvious, which means they had to have just been lying this entire time.

It's weird, the "classic" comedies of the 80's and 90's all clock in at around 90 minutes. I don't know when they decided every movie needed to be a minimum of 2 hours, but it's fucking annoying.

I bought back in mid-November when I thought it was going to swing back up (after it fell from $26 to $23). Apparently that was just a quick stop before it went to $17.

I get up whenever, fuck around online, eat breakfast, play some games or watch twitch, workout, lunch, sometimes go for a walk, eat dinner, watch a few hours of TV, and then go to bed. It's a full day, man! And that's the lazy days. If I do a project or we go do something, I accomplish even...

Conventional wisdom is that time in the market beats timing the market. Since none of us knows what the future of the market looks like, it's better to get the money in as soon as you can and ride the waves up. Because while the market can be volatile, it's within 5% of the all time high...

I ended up ordering a Rec Tec (590). With smoking, I eventually got to the point where I only used hickory. Fruit woods like cherry and apple never seemed to give me as deep of a "smoke flavor" that I wanted, and something like mesquite was too harsh. Jack Daniels barrel chips seemed like just...

I'd love to get back to even on PLTR again. I think it took me like 5 months last time. Then like a retard I bought a small drop, and it's been in the shitter ever since.

Feel like you didn't read a lot of our opinions on it. The jokes were fine...up until a point. And that point was after about 45 to 60 minutes of beating that horse. And then they do it for another hour.

Wow, didn't even realize that was the finale. What a disappointing season ending.
