$4.59/gallon here. Don't try to tell me about low gas prices over Labor Day week-end, or any other time period. Buncha garbage.
It's your choice to live in a Dem state. This link (https://gasprices.aaa.com/state-gas-price-averages/) show only 2 stat…
That's pretty powerful. And certainly helps to understand their total supinity.

@msf. Surely some of the stuff shithead had pulled off already is not legal and he is just getting started . He is like a runaway train going downhill. Nothing and nobody to stop him. I hope you are right and I am wrong.

I'll go along with what you both are saying. What I had in mind is the (non-) ability to get through to the Agent with whom I made initial contact at the local office, when Schwab first took my money..... A bit later on, he sent an email to me askin…

@Crash- You're certainly talking to the wrong guy on that. As long as he's counting his money the United States can go completely to hell and nothing else even matters.
Yes, you're right. But I just knew that it needed to be said.
Schwab customer service sucks fetid, septic mud. That's been my experience. However, using their chat function often, but not always, produces results.
I expect this Supreme Court to drive a truck through the "imponderables."
I won't be surprised, either. The Orange Behemoth has packed that court. Nothing but a few particular deaths along with some actual leadership is going to fix this. (Is he de…
I see several solutions: Europe should lower tariffs and subsidies, reduce regulations, scale back social programs, limit immigration, and start competing globally.
When you compare Europe to the U.S., the populations are similar, and Europe arguab…
So, so utterly effed-up at the highest level. The massacre with the resignations ought to be a wake-up call, but it will just add fuel to their fire. Orange Donny and his criminal tong.
@Sven. You nailed it. The complicity of the Republican Party, the cowardice and selfishness will be the central point when the history of this mess is written. That is if historians will be allowed to tell the truth in the future. A dismal exampl…
I've decided to "juice" my Trad IRA a bit by adding a single-stock. That item has grown to be 4.99% of that particular account. It went ex-div today and is 3.95% of my total.
Simplification is to be preferred, indeed. But already, PRWCX (in T-IRA) …
Yes, M* seems to be back on track. I can once again see my self-created list in the Portf. Mgr.
I never used Yahoo in that way. Too busy. Too many distractions and click-bait junk. I hope they fix it for you, of course!
This is ugly and dark and getting worse, all around, every day. And by the way, it still is and always will be the Gulf of MEXICO. (Hey! Ya, YOU! Orange Spooge-brain! Aren't you dead YET!? Shit.)

Remember when our Presidents (of both Parties) were actually intelligent and knew how to comport themselves? Of course, a Democratic Socialist would be preferred...
Seems to me the dollar will continue to fall in value. The US is not the safe haven it once was. WE are now among the banana republics ruled by a criminal, fascist, vapid thug, along with his tong. American exceptionalism of the sort the MAGA crowd …
@larryB correct. The silent--- literally--- Repugnant majority on The Hill have taken the role of spectators. They are complicit in the collusion to remake this country from within, via an internal coup d'etat.
