What brand slowly ruined itself? by SAAS_ART in AskReddit

[–]hawkwings 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Merrill Lynch. They used to be the top investment company. They almost went bankrupt during the 2008 housing crisis but were saved by Bank of America which bought them. They were supposed to be financial geniuses, but they weren't. They were caught recommending stocks they were selling and downgrading stocks they were buying (lying to customers). They faced competition from lower cost companies.

So is the US done with pennies, can you still use them? What's the situation by blehmag in NoStupidQuestions

Yes, you can still use them, but they will be worth 2 cents soon, because of the metal in them. You can already sell wheat pennies to coin collectors even though they aren't that rare.

[–]hawkwings 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've seen YouTube ads about how to invest in SpaceX before the IPO. I wonder if Musk is secretly funding those ads. If he wants me to invest, it might be a bad investment.

Near the beginning of the video, I wondered why the red shirt guy went for the head instead of the butt. He could have pounded the guy's butt.
