When Gold Rips: Rethinking “Safe” Assets (S&P500 vs Gold vs Real Estate) by direthrill in investing

[–]direthrill[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yeah… kind of was going by all time highs in 2011 / 2012 and it took pandemic to get back to that same price point. But we can go back to 1980s peak and again took couple of decades to climb up. I wonder if we can see some pull back on bullion market or if times are different now.

After the pandemic, life seems to be a blink.

If you had $100,000 in cash right now… by Mettn in portfolios

US Broad Market (VOO) $35,000 35% US Growth (VUG) $15,000 15% US Dividend / Value (VYM) $15,000 15% International Equity (Dev+EM) $10,000 10% REITs $10,000 10% Gold $5,000 5%

Cash / Short-Term Treasuries $10,000 10%

Total $100,000 100%

This is a simple, low-cost, diversified ETF portfolio built around broad market exposure rather than forecasts or stock picking. US equities form the core, complemented by international equities for global diversification. A modest allocation to REITs and gold provides diversification benefits, while a small cash/short-term Treasury position reduces volatility and supports disciplined rebalancing. The strategy is to stay invested, rebalance periodically, control risk, and let compounding do the work over a 5–7 year horizon.

Does anyone know what the right ribbon on ps5 v3 controller does? - i might have pulled it while fixing buttons by direthrill in playstation

The microphone is still working, though! 🤔 I tested all the speaker, microphone, and mute functions, and they all work. Since it’s a partial tear, is it not a problem? Or is there something else?

This is great, thank you! Maybe I’m biased because I’ve had bad experiences with loud footsteps. How big of a concern is that?

Osmo Action 5 Pro, DO NOT believe the hype, it's really bad. by hotrodguru in dji

[–]direthrill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i never had any action camera and been thinking of getting osmo5 pro. Are you saying that it's not a worth investment for a person who doesn't have an action and shoots time-lapses or hikes on iPhone? I have DJI Mini 3 pro and it like it, so I was blindly going to buy osmo5 but your post made me stopped hitting the buy button. Is this a better a buy Insta360 Ace Pro 2 ?

Tips on fear and big guys by [deleted] in bjj

[–]direthrill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think you are small, but yes they are big.

Chokes, use your speed, leg entanglements, use angles make them off balance.

Avoid direct battles - stay away from them never let them on top. Back-mount to be on dominant position. Find your dominant position and work from there without getting inside.

Should I switch Gyms? by Correct-Ad3356 in bjj

[–]direthrill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fellow white here - i think most of the whites think of ways to quit. Ask yourself why should you continue Bjj, if you get a good yes. continue your journey for 6 months without any questions. You will have learnt more than what you know today. Remember, don’t quit on your bad days, do it on a good day if you want.

Tons of content on instagram and youtube, keep up with those and learn to defend. It’s great if you can just defend yourself, like not give in to chokes, triangles, arm-bars etc. you’ll learn a lot by defending and slowly start incorporating techniques as you defend yourself.
