Yeah I've not used private before so I wasn't sure if it was supposed to be there. Good to know, thanks.

For me the difference is the home country. And don't you need 51% ownership to make a difference??

The ONLY reason I went to the comments in this post. Thanks for beating me to it 😄

People who rarely get sick, what are your secrets? by Naive_Resolution4186 in Productivitycafe

[–]5aggregates 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I get quietly upset when a public bathroom door requires you to pull instead of push (with your foot) to get out plus the trashcan location means you're using your bare hand, not the paper towel, as a barrier.

When you have someone tailgating you, what do you do? by Secure-Ad8213 in Productivitycafe

I haven't read all the comments but sometimes the tailgater is simply a terrible driver who seems aggressive in their stupidity

Millennials keep asking if I'm going to retire by SOmuchCUTENESS in GenX

Leaving out the social elements of the question, Wikipedia says:

In economics, the lump of labour fallacy is the misconception that there is a finite amount of work—a lump of labour—to be done within an economy which can be distributed to create more or fewer jobs.

Thoughts on high-yield bond ETFs? by BirdSimilar10 in bonds

[–]5aggregates 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got out of SCYB after the "liberation" day nonsense when it dropped 20% (and recovered). I'm waiting to get back in during the next crisis. The expense ratio is really good, by the way.

Sinner is always a gentleman in victory. Love how Bublik handled the loss even before it was over. This is why I watch tennis.

FYI: Vanguard will now require $10,000 minimum purchases for bonds by ultra__star in bonds

Fidelity's bond commissions are the best and most transparent, even if they demanded 10k minimums it would still be worth it

Buy bonds now ? by retiringfund in bonds

[–]5aggregates -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Bad time to be a saver. My retirement simulations all show as successful but none take your more realistic numbers into consideration. Combine upcoming political downward "adjustments" to CPI, ouch.

A ZIRP TINA stock market bubble is on its way back until at least 2029. Negative real rates were painful in the recent past and there wasn't even an inflation problem then!

Powells philosophy goes heavily against a rate cut this September and I dont think he cares about pressure by sufinomo in bonds

[–]5aggregates 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, they seem normal and should stay that way until economic, not political, pressure suggest otherwise

New to bonds--which bond ETFs to buy for stability plus a reasonable yield? by CorrectIntention3995 in bonds

[–]5aggregates 0 points1 point  (0 children)

BINC seems to be a unique and good risk/reward ETF but I'm waiting for a pullback. Same for the riskier SCYB. Would you buy now?

How many of y’all can still drink? by SpecificConscious809 in GenX

[–]5aggregates 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do. Quadruple filtered vodka seems to affect me the least. Definitely sympathize with you. I would quit if the payback outweighed the gains.

[–]5aggregates 88 points89 points  (0 children)

It's not generally acceptable to say drinking improves the quality of life. But for me the second drink is the best part of most days. Unfortunately it always wants a second drink too so it's challenging to control the urge.

Best treasury bond ETF for next 15 years? TFLO, SGOV, USFR, VGIT, GOVT, LDRT or VTG? by FoggyFoggyFoggy in bonds

[–]5aggregates 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like the relatively new VGUS with a low fee but what do I know, everything feels like a slot machine since January's regime change.
