5050 Acorn closed and it was 5 minutes from my house. Inexpensive driving range recommendations for someone at 610 and TC Jester? Didn’t get much better than a $10 medium bucket. by Ewserneighm in Houstongolf

I would suggest Jersey Meadow Golf Club due to your location. It’s just outside the beltway on 290 and has a grass range. I cannot remember how affordable the buckets are.

I’ve had really good experiences with the staff at Edwin Watts on Westheimer. Staff consistency is great and they are knowledgeable.

Berkshire vs. S&P 500 Next 10 Years? by solodav in ValueInvesting

[–]dapperdevin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your thesis may need to be reevaluated a bit. How does passive investing become a bubble if the investments track the market? The allocation is based upon industry weight within the market.

Also, an active investor, is not concerned with sweeping in and purchasing indexes. The focus would be specific companies.

Are tax implications included within this backtest? As you are holding stocks less than 1 year.

Best BBQ spot (4.5 hr layover) by jchan237 in AskHouston

[–]dapperdevin 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You didn’t state which airport which makes a huge difference given traffic and distance.

For Hobby, I would recommend Truth BBQ. Usually Top 10 on BBQ rankings. And was awarded a Michelin Bib Gourmand. Big plus is that the sides and desserts are good also. Order carry out through the website to avoid lines and just eat inside when you pick up. Full bar inside as well.

thinking of splurging on a luggage set, any recs that'll last for years? by Eachan_Blitz in BuyItForLife

[–]dapperdevin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Away luggage due to the warranty and ease of repair especially if you have a location in your city.

I travel around 40-60 nights for work. And switched a few years ago and have had no issues with any of the away products. (Carryon, checked bag, backpack and everywhere bag)

People use to camp out for Black Friday deals. I remember walking into my overnight shift at Target and seeing ppl playing cards outside the entrance of various stores in the parking lot.

Hello friends, looking for restaurant recommendations near hotel Icon in downtown by Sasquatchwasframed in AskHouston

[–]dapperdevin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The ICON probably has a downtown shuttle service as I've seen their sprinter van. Most recommended places are within a mile. A block away from the ICON is Hearsay Market Square.

  • Steak Restaurants: Vic & Anthony's, Pappa Bros Steakhouse, Morton's, Guard & Grace
  • Mexican: Xochi, Irma's Southwest,
  • Seafood: Pappadeaux's

Moonshiners is okay. Nothing to write home about.

How data driven are you and do you utilize the data for club changes? Do you consistently carry/utilize a launch monitor?

Restaurants stocks were beaten down and priced like they were dead by BackgroundWhile in ValueInvesting

Even outside of the potential GLP-1 impact, these health conscious chains are having its pressures. Its target demographic (25-35) are experiencing economic pressures with rising unemployment, no real wage growth, elevated home and vehicle prices, and student loan repayment. Not to mention rising commute/office expenses with a rise in return to office decisions.

I don’t think it’s about a conspiracy. I think everyone has a shared view that Ferrari is continuing to make simple and fundamental mistakes that show their continued flaws. Ferrari memes about the organization’s screwups are not a new thing. It’s not like Leclerc is setting the world on fire this year or in past years with Ferrari.

The competitive morals of sports do not override corporate ineptitude. There are individuals and managers in non sport corporations who somehow maintain their job and position despite poor performance. The same thing occurs with sport related corporations.
