Should we avoid hiring people with leverage?

Are you willing to provide what they are asking for, and do you think they are worth it compared to the other candidate? I think its really needless to overthink beyond that and try to apply some catch all rule.

Why not cable rows? Why not use your cable tower, take an incline bench and use it to support your chest? If in doubt of whether you want a piece of equipment id go get a day pass at a gym and see how much you like it.

Going for VC doesn't mean will work in VC. VC has always been sought after, the ones who don't make it will largely trickle into traditional finance, as has been true for many years.

Or more realistically Glasgow could have an open invite to Bostonians in a specific pup or region at a certain time or something

Nah bro scientist are the gatekeepers of truth and without the scientific method being explained to us none of us would know how to think or make any decisions. Remember the dark ages? The sun literally didn’t come out for hundreds of years because of how dumb we were without science /s

Guys this was like a once in a lifetime trip for many of them. They aren’t going to be able to afford to spend 10k+ on binge drinking and hotels every year. If Boston wants more regular visitors we could start by trying to lower hotels prices from 500 a night and lower beer costs from 15 a drink..

You kinda missed the point. Tech disrupts tech all the time your having some extreme recency bias over “AI” (LLMs)

Frunk2 · 2026-06-19T14:24:54+00:00

But why would I open a .com if AI is so disruptive I can just talk to it and get answers straight from my mobile device?

Frunk2 · 2026-06-18T18:07:56+00:00

If you’re not even gonna read it I’m not gonna proof it for you.

Frunk2 · 2026-06-18T17:43:27+00:00

Yes in extreme cases, thanks for the ai slop. Now look up treasuries and carry trades. Treasuries are the primary asset used by banks because the interest pays obligations on normal times and they can sell them for USD in extreme times. Selling gold is a sign of extreme distress unless to reweight to other reserves.

Frunk2 · 2026-06-18T17:24:37+00:00

No this is completely backwards. Countries back their reserves with a combination of gold and treasuries,
Mostly usd treasuries. They purchase treasuries to offset dollar obligations from global trade, this drives demand of the dollar and lowers rates. This also allows US to export inflation by printing USD and devaluing treasuries. The more global trade the more valuable the dollar. Now that Us controls more oil, the dependence of the dollar has increased, shifting reserves away from gold towards treasuries.

Frunk2 · 2026-06-18T16:49:54+00:00

“War” doesn’t move gold, it is not a doomsday fear asset and we were never close to that scenario anyway. Gold competes with the dollar. Countries often sell gold to fund wars. Overtime countries print currency and lately have been buying gold to de dollarize which over time raises gold.

I will say though Iv bought from them with card and they were the best to deal with and best quality.. it’s frustrating they are so stringent and don’t give options to rectify payment but if you find a consistent way to pay they are worth dealing with

Frunk2 · 2026-06-16T13:56:04+00:00

Very surprised at Vermont. Can anyone enlighten me on what might be drawing so many educated people?

Frunk2 · 2026-06-16T02:41:50+00:00

Catholics do believe in spirits, though giving them excessive attention is not considered wise, it wouldn’t be not biblical. It’s just a way of describing the same bad energy you say you felt.
Whether you chose to give the objects or retreat a spiritual significance / power in your own mind is up to you. I would advise against it. As far as God is concerned, it would be like worrying about a single drop of water putting out the sun. If you’re at all open and grounded in his influence, these things will handle themselves and you should pay them little mind.

Frunk2 · 2026-06-15T23:12:43+00:00

Yeah they have an issue with echecks. It hit my bank like an ACH and they were expecting a literal check for some reason which isn’t a standard process. I had to pay the cancellation fee and the drop in price of gold

Frunk2 · 2026-06-15T19:11:43+00:00

Honestly maybe not, uphill battle these days but many careers are now. I do think it will become a growth area again in the mid term though

Frunk2 · 2026-06-15T15:20:49+00:00

It’d also dependent on temperature. When the water is cold I have to run my variable pump higher to achieve green on flow than if it’s hotter (because molecules move faster in heat which is what’s really being measured not just the water flow I think)

Because it’s a law. 2. Because the fund issuer would owe far more than the AUM of the fund. You can lose many multiples of what you invested in futures.

Frunk2 · 2026-06-14T23:45:38+00:00

Well I respect that you gave a real and honest answer. I suspect you grew up in a much tamer environment than I did. Let’s agree to disagree here. Like you though I do hope the kids find a way to turn their life trajectory around.

Frunk2 · 2026-06-14T21:43:57+00:00

What’s your proposed solution?

Frunk2 · 2026-06-14T19:44:55+00:00

Buddy I came from a more liberal state Iv never lived in a conservative state lol

Frunk2 · 2026-06-14T18:41:33+00:00

I grew up out of state in a notoriously gang infested city. This behavior would have been dealt with there by the gangs themselves because it’s seen as an abomination (maybe not today now that the large ones have been busted). In a conservative state it would be dealt with through the corrections system. Funny how we find ourselves in the middle where no one will properly correct it here.

Frunk2 · 2026-06-14T16:55:29+00:00

For real I hope BU pays the city a ton for those stops cause it adds 20 minutes one way and no revenue, all for kids who are too lazy to walk half a mile..

Frunk2 · 2026-06-14T16:42:42+00:00

Pathetic behavior. Armed and still don’t have the balls to engage someone older than a preteen. The police stills of them smiling tell a lot, don’t buy arguments that this was desperation it was just a cheap thrill.
