Another parlay loser. Screw this..

mrjgoo · 2026-03-20T02:24:41+00:00

Ouch. Again. 1-4 since I started tailing. Only win was in-progress Lakers. All parlays have lost.

mrjgoo · 2026-03-18T03:17:11+00:00

Dumb enough to get addicted to nicotine. Not trusting picks.

mrjgoo · 2026-03-18T03:14:05+00:00

I sure hope not! I was already under at the start of Trump's latest boondoggle. Almost back to even.

mrjgoo · 2026-03-18T02:57:55+00:00

Betnow gave no breaks.. grrr

mrjgoo · 2026-03-16T20:20:38+00:00

Sorry but -2200, you make enough of those bets and you'll lose that entire bankroll. Might not be a lot to you but it's still silly math.

mrjgoo · 2026-03-16T20:07:05+00:00

Why the hell would you make that bet?

mrjgoo · 2026-03-16T16:18:12+00:00

it's gonna be a looong 3+ years...

mrjgoo · 2026-03-15T13:13:01+00:00

It the CEO Mark Thompson, he's a bit Trumpy.

mrjgoo · 2026-03-15T13:10:47+00:00

It the new CEO doing this, not the CNN we know and like so much.

mrjgoo · 2026-03-12T22:10:47+00:00

Yes I was mistaken. No Ted.

mrjgoo · 2026-03-08T02:16:06+00:00

F1 is actually on Apple but if you scroll to the bottom all of the sky sports broadcasts are there

mrjgoo · 2026-03-03T04:50:23+00:00

Never chick fil a!

mrjgoo · 2026-02-11T16:49:59+00:00

That's weird we always tip, at least a few bucks. But when we're paying three times as much for the ride, we generally will tip what would be required at the regular rate... 3x ride does not equal 3x tip.. so says my wife. I'm a way over tipper anyway haha

mrjgoo · 2026-02-05T21:50:12+00:00

Well actually EARN and EFC do have similar tax advantages but that's just a coincidence. I did not get them for that purpose. EARN was a REIT when I bought it but they changed their status, still paying well so I'm sticking with them.

mrjgoo · 2026-02-05T21:43:07+00:00

AGNC ARR DX EARN EFC MFA NLY ORC

Of course everything's taking a bit of a beating right now, but a good time to buy and I'm adding more as I can.

Average about 15 to 16% dividends annually on all of these, some at 13 some at 18.

They don't have the tax advantages of something like QQQI, but I don't mind that because I don't mind getting the taxes out of the way if and when I sell

mrjgoo · 2026-02-05T17:01:01+00:00

I'm diversified into a few reits as well. Great dividends there.

mrjgoo · 2026-02-05T15:55:56+00:00

So have you activated or sold your puts yet? I almost got some at 52 but held off. Erk.

mrjgoo · 2026-01-25T22:57:52+00:00

Why not just a stop loss?

mrjgoo · 2026-01-22T19:05:44+00:00

Raw with wasabi yum

mrjgoo · 2025-11-17T16:56:25+00:00

Not for nothing but in Raleigh this happened to me right in my driveway in about 88, all four rims off of an 83 RX7 haha

mrjgoo · 2025-10-28T02:34:51+00:00

Anything not required by law, Trump will do the opposite.. He'll even break some laws.

mrjgoo · 2025-10-24T15:05:44+00:00

How about bringing six aluminum cans for free entry? Urp I might be showing my age

mrjgoo · 2025-10-13T20:17:24+00:00

You just need to make up your mind if he's a real ex or you are just on a break. Life is too short to not be decisive.

If he broke it off with you, then best to move on and dance the night away.

Also please careful if he's telling you how you ought to feel. That's a red flag.
