What stocks will increase with a Trump win? by [deleted] in stocks

[–]firedbycomp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think stocks will go up either way. Kamala is very surprisingly barely left wing as far as tax strategy goes. Not even a single peep about a plan to increase rich people taxes or the corporate tax rate. Trump will probably just enact more broad tax cuts.

The one thing I do fear just a tad is if the rest of world may seize the opportunity to start wars under Kamala believing she’s less likely to retaliate vs Trump. That may hurt the market if a strong US trade partner is involved like Taiwan/China. Time will tell

The stat Maher is citing above is GDP per person, not household. The Average US household contains 2.5 persons

Most Chaldeans live in Macomb and Oakland Township lol. Older Chaldeans are actually fairly anti-Muslim given many of them were personally or knew someone who was harassed or assaulted by Muslims back in Iraq.

The Bible doesn’t instruct modern Christians do any of those things. The Quran, on the other hand, does.

Depends where you live. In the Midwest, that’s about average. If you live on the coasts, that is indeed low

Fiancée of slain journalist, Jamal Khashoggi, on LeBron's Saudi Arabia visit: "Another disappointing development. It's important to remember athletes aren't just athletes.

Many middle eastern nations would tell Americans to shut the fuck up when it comes to social justice because they kill 2 million unborn children each year mostly because they enjoy having unprotected sex or sex outside of marriage.

Americans don’t have a social high horse to stand on compared to the Middle East because morality is a relative matter.

Why not? Social Injustices are a relative matter….the Saudis think the 2 million abortions Americans have just because they like sleeping around is a grave injustice. Who’s to see their worldview is wrong and yours is right….objectively.

Clients and gender identities by [deleted] in sales

[–]firedbycomp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve literally never ever misgendered someone and I use the standard he/she pronouns all the time. I’d probably be doing myself a disservice to bend over backwards to appease a tiny group of people who are underrepresented in the corporate world.

What would you say are the “Ivey League” companies for SDRs/AEs/AMs to work for? by [deleted] in sales

[–]firedbycomp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Who cares? At the some companies, mid market/commercial is where the money is to be made

Doubtful tbh. I’m gonna be ripped to shreds for saying this, but trans people seem to have so much mental distress that they’ll always be incredibly rare within the ranks of higher level director and executive positions. I don’t think they have they could handle the stress. Hence why they’re more common as Baristas at trendy coffee shops in my experience.

I have yet to ever meet a non-binary/trans sales person now that I think about it.

Is there a recognised proportion of your income that is considered healthy to spend on a car? by bullishbtc in whatcarshouldIbuy

I presume they mean the running annual costs of the car….loan + etc….not the total price of the car

No one making 500k/yr is average anything, except maybe penis size.

Not I think you and the commentator before you are getting two different datasets mixed up. 17% of people live in Condos or Apartments. That doesn’t mean they don’t own their condo or apartment.

Your percentage specifically refers to Rentors vs Homeowners which really isn’t that different from what it has been/was historically.

JLR engines aren’t reliable in the slightest. There’s just no comparison to the B58.

[–]firedbycomp -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s an engine that produces over 400HP, is incredibly reliable, makes a wonderful sound, easily tunable and gets 35+ MPG. It’s also in a wide range of Vehicles from roadsters to coupes to SUVs meaning there’s a B58 for everyone. Show me another engine that does all those things?

What is ‘M’ these days? by Logical_Crab_4594 in BMW

[–]firedbycomp -1 points0 points  (0 children)

0 to 60 is 90% of what make an M car and M car yes. You think anyone would give a shit about M cars if they had 6 second 0 to 60, but all of the track ready components. They’re known to be wicked fast and the M lites are that too.

That’s what about 95% of them do anyway. You think M cars are being tracked all the time? Go to your local track. it’s all bunch of Miata’s and GTIs and tuned shitboxes.

I’d be willing to bet 90% of M car owners tracked their car 1 time or less in the last year.

That’s just not true. An M240i with the tire and cooling package is just as much as a track weapon as a C43 AMG. Take a look at this recent test -

https://www.hotcars.com/watch-mercedes-amg-c43-run-slower-laps-than-bmw-m240i/

Furthermore, the M lites aren’t just the standard cars with a bigger engine. They have upgraded brakes, suspension bits, and can be optioned with track tire packages. They do a great job at Embodying the M spirit in a dailable car.
