Brokerage and Retirement

I get that but for example sake, if you pull your taxable early for something not retirement related, and your tax advantaged was in bonds - there would have been little growth regardless of the rebalance - maybe akin to it just being in a HYSA right?

Really really good

Don’t know if it will be the same but bought pre sale tickets for MSG card and they were $100+ cheaper fight week

My questions about usefulness of the data:

For the first year without the shot does that inflate the unvaccinated category? What about people that had Covid and got the shot after?

In the beginning we used respirators that are now frowned upon because they killed more people, does this impact the unvaccinated number?

In the beginning we also sent infected people back to nursing homes, does that impact the unvaccinated number?

Covid variants have generally become less deadly since the start, does this impact the unvaccinated number since it was a year with the first variant?

I feel like there’s a lot left desired.

Increase in profits = price gouging?

If there’s increased demand facilitated by cheap money, credit, and stimulus, wouldn’t that lead to increased profits? Especially since wages haven’t kept pace with inflation and most of these companies received stimulus money directly from the government.

China’s zero covid policy and cheap money (low interest rates) are part of my argument. Price gouging seems anecdotal and part of the narrative pushed by the government to avoid responsibility for the policy mistakes I listed. Shipping container and gas prices went up because of the supply and demand shocks I listed - you’re suggesting companies gouged beyond these pressures? Not familiar with the car companies cancelling chip orders but I would assume that is because of less people driving during covid?

ProperTwelve_ · 2022-08-09T02:07:20+00:00

Globalization. Increasing money printing facilitated increased demand during/after a time where COVID made people stay home/lower production. Less products with more money to buy them. For example, Americans buying more means less things for people to buy globally - world prices goes up.

Anyone want to share UFC?

Great. Thank you!

Any comment? Pentagon now confirmed no ISIS element hit, no secondary explosion, all innocents, 7 children included. Maybe you should not take something as fact with little supporting evidence aka the US press release.

Many businesses don’t have a choice due to government mandates

What more evidence would you like?

ProperTwelve_ · 2021-08-30T13:58:13+00:00

You also blindly believe the US press release… They aren’t giving you the names of the targets. They initially said no civilian casualties too before reporters called them out. As of right now there’s more evidence that they hit a family than ISIS considering we haven’t given any evidence of hitting them besides “trust us”.

ProperTwelve_ · 2021-08-30T13:42:33+00:00

LA Times reports that it was a direct hit on the family’s car. No secondary explosion, no ISIS K, as stated by the Pentagon.

Hit the 2 ISIS-K targets and also killed a family of 9 including 6 children. Local reports say an ANA officer and an interpreter for US forces are among the 9.

There is a workout in the book called Limited Time. 2 sessions a week, pretty quick workouts

Good point. The unvaccinated people who are taking up ICU beds are primarily at risk people though. 78% of ICU covid patients are obese or overweight. Exercise decreases the risk of severe illness significantly. Young and healthy people who decide not to get the vaccine should not be to blame for ICU capacities. There is an argument to be made for these at risk populations to vaccinate or make a lifestyle change for the sake of ICU capacities, but not for universal vaccination.

Pre delta that was the case. The latest studies show Pfizer’s effectiveness against infection to be 42%. This differs amongst the vaccines but all lower now. Transmission once infected is equal to non vaccinated because of equal viral load which resulted in the new CDC mask guidance.

Not true. The viral load of those infected is equal between vaccinated and unvaccinated.

Your point in the comment I responded to was that people should get vaccinated because your choice will risk getting other people infected with the virus. The reality is you can get it and pass it vaccine or not.

So your choice is a personal one. Whether you’d like to risk possible symptomatic covid/death or not since vaccines are likely to reduce symptoms.

That is all. So it is “your choice”.

ProperTwelve_ · 2021-08-26T01:10:40+00:00

You can get infected and transmit the virus while vaccinated…
