Hey Dougster - I Need Stock Advice

shailynn
They never tell you what you need to know.
My stocks were doing so great I was getting ready to buy matching Bentley Continental GTs with LMN. with this slide today and my idea of getting rich on the Ashley Madison IPO, I'm thinking I should have maybe just leased a Volkswagen Jetta.

I suggest chicken stock for vegetable soup instead of beef. The lighter flavor lets the flavor of the vegetables come through.

Unless it's onion soup; then use beef stock. It complements the onions and cheese.

Boom of 2015

Part 1
https://www.tuscl.net/postread.php?PID=3…

Part 2

So I am walking through the streets of Manhattan. I avoid the sidewalk and take instead the centerline of the street. With all the high-rises, I am concerned about leapers.

I come upon a man sitting on the curb, and behind a Rolls Royce. He has a gas can in his hand.

I walk a bit closer and he says, "This 2015 boom is not just a bubble, it is a genuine boom. It will go on for at least 30 years. So you need to learn investing skills and get in on it now. Look for those industries which are least amenable to automation. And don't be like a Depression Baby or like Steve229, go in all the way so that you don't miss out. This boom is so big that there won't even be young women around to be whoring in strip clubs anymore. And could you spare me a few bucks for gas. I've got to move this thing or it's gonna get towed.

I see that what he was wearing must have been a $1200 suit. But now it's got miss matched patches all over.

Absolutely DOOMED! Did you buy CHAD, @SJG?

I invest my time, my money, my energy and my talents together, in the undertakings of myself and my associates. This way the risks are very low and the results are more pleasing at every level. We build up the talent base of our own people, and then plough the benefits back into our own undertakings. Our people don't fail, because we don't let them.

This advice that people should become speculators is like putting arsenic into their food. If they accept it then they are giving up on ever having the chance to work with actual partners and to do work which is actually valuable in and of itself.

@SJG: can I come work for you if the NYC financial industry goes belly up (as you and Stevie-girl warned) or will I be SOL like the guy in your story? (That's just the chance you take.)

I didnt in invest in CHAD.

I picked GARY instead.

GARY seemed to be getting more action in Indiana than CHAD....

@Dougster, you can't do that right now, but not to far down the road and it will be possible. There is nothing idealistic in people forming partnerships and investing their own time and money in them, as opposed to engaging in speculation.

What you are putting out is based on greed, fear, and ignorance. You are promoting fatalism and a fatalistic approach to living, and trying to profit from it.

Looks like CHAD will open around $60 which was my target. I won't press it beyond that. China probably has another 10% down coming due to currency depreciation and the market could drop more - but CHAD is not designed to be a long term hold, so I won't get greedy (30% gain is plenty).

Oh yeah - you're welcome.
