Since beer makes me feel colder and a bit hyper in small amounts, weed might cause my memory to improve. Good to know. Thanks.
I remember a Rush Blue Oyster Cult concert over 20 years ago with a strong scent of something sweet in the air. I still remember someone spilled the contents of a glow stick on my arm and my arm glowed for a few hours. It was like I had glowing veins.

I remember a dancer that first told me she remembered me from 13 years earlier. I didn't remember her at all. One morning when she woke up she told me she remembered the very first time she ever saw me and it was before she was old enough to be a stripper. I think that was about 18 years ago at the time. Watch out. Some of them have their memory etched in stone. However I don't do a whole lot of questioning because I think I may have switched universes. I still have no memory of her from that long ago but she knew enough to be like a creepy stalker if the roles had been reversed and I was working in the club and she had been a customer. I never realized one club in NC had a pic of me from their opening days.

She might have recently arrived from one of those parallel universes and is dazed and confused from the experience. I would refrain from arguing with her. I met a dancer one weekend who stopped and talked to me saying she hadn't seen me in 2 years. The following weekend she said the same thing in the same club. I told her she said that last weekend and she denied it. Obviously one of us must gave changed universes.

I'm not sure in the local area. I spent about 15 dollars clubbing two or three weeks ago and last night spent about 20 to 30 dollars total. I doubled my spending. Club was too crowded so I left earlier than planned.

Skimming over this thread made me remember a break room with vending machines. I saw a dead cockroach. My coworker warned me, if the vending food kills the cockroach, it's not safe to eat.

My cliff note version of what I remember.
Dress up in a 3 piece suit like an old corny computer game called leisure suit Larry.
Spend a lot of money in the club on a stripper over several visits.
After spending thousands, ask her if she would like to go out with you, you pay of course.
Eventually sex could happen if you are lucky. The system the way I remember it.
Some claim success. Others laugh at the system.

Actually I do care. I'm a bit psychic and while I don't mind visually regular sex or a girl giving a BJ or even visualizing two lesbians licking pussy, I want to block out male on male activity.
Now I need to see some cam girls to try to forget several hundred people having sex.
Unfortunately when it comes to the stock market I'm only right about half the time sometimes.

Of course my comment only refers to people and things in your past. If someone is currently causing you pain, you may need to try to fix the situation or remove yourself from the pain unless you enjoy suffering. I'm just thinking about all those suffering in unhappy marriages. I realize some feel trapped and may be trapped in unhappy marriages. Just try to remember in the next life, don't get married unless you think it's going to be a win win situation.
Or remember in the next life, read all the brilliant comments posted here. Just thinking in 2040 or 2060, JS reincarnated self reading tuscl archives. :)

Never been married but when it comes to things in your past, keeping anger, hate, etc, in your heart or head doesn't help you nor harm the object you are thinking about unless you risk getting yourself in trouble for illegal activity that could make your own life a lot worse.
The best thing to do is forgive the past injustice. When you do you free yourself from your past. You take away the emotional trauma that the hate or anger is causing you. Can you do it? I'm not sure. I know I forget easy after a few years. It has no effect on others unless you want to do illegal activities which is not good for your own future. Forgiving others frees yourself. I understand the wisdom in doing so. I now find it easy to see in others. Someone who hates someone like crazy, it affects them, not the person they hate. It tears them up without affecting the object of their hatred or anger. Now if you act like ISIS and aren't worried about losing your own life, your own soul, etc, your own property and are willing to go suicidal, you can might get temporarily even but you might not feel the same if they end up in heaven and you end up suffering in hell. Just my two cents and a reminder if I ever look back at this years later.

LE in South Carolina spends up to 2,000 dollars a visit in Greenville to do prostitution busts because they couldn't get jack with anything less. To not get taxpayers in a hissy, they said they used confiscated drug money spending all that money over a year. I never knew there was so much drug money in Greenville, that the cops could afford to spend a whole year undercover in strip clubs. I feel so protected, I stopped visiting. If you know you can't even see nipples in a strip club, it sucks. People in other states can see more on the beach than you can see in some Greenville strip clubs.

Maybe. However I expect a big drop before we get there. Maybe a drop all the way down to 1600 first.

If you have enough money to change the stock price, you are changing things with your buying and selling. The vulume or liquidity may be really low if you are changing the stock price. I've changed stock prices by pennies and I don't want to do more than that.
If you are making a stock go up or down, you may be a big part of the market for the stock.

Warren Buffet, a billionaire has bought stock cheap long ago and likely held onto some of it long enough to make a small fortune on just that stock. Most ordinary people do not buy and hold stock for that long. They sell when it drops and buy it back when it goes back up thinking they are missing out on a big rally so their gains are not as good as the market. It's human behavior to follow the herd. If everyone is running for cover, do you stand still or run for cover? They sell and buy at the same time or eventfully join the herd for the most part.
As far as billionaires or multi. Millionaires go, a stock needs a lot of high volume liquidity to not shoot the price of the stock down or up by much.
Example shadowcat is selling his shares of tuscl at $5 a share and has 1000 shares for sell.
John69 puts in a buy order for 1100 shares for 4.95 a share.
Somehow close to these prices the stock would get bought and sold.
Now suppose lots of others have buy and sell orders like 5.50 a share 7 a share but the quantity is only a 1000 shares and they never thought they would get any buyers at that high a price.
Along comes millionaire juice saying he's going to buy a whopping 10,000 shares of tuscl and puts in a market order. To satisfy that order he buys up all available shares and the price of the stock might jump to $10 a share or some very high price to entice enough sellers to sell to juice. Without enough liquidity, you overpay. The opposite might happen if juice that the stock was a bad move and decides to put in a,market order to sell those 10,000 shares.
If someone put in market order for a billion shares for tuscl and I had some, I'd happily sell everything I had for $100,000 a share if the billionaire put in a market order and there weren't enough shares to fill the order without me selling mine. If I sold 1000 shares at 100K each, well that would make my day.

I remember a guy that was called flock. He was so big, when he sat in my car the whole car tilted to the right, I never knew a car could tilt like that just from someone sitting in it.

I've already visited lots of alien girls in my dreams. Plus some extraterrestrial creatures.
The strangest alien in my dreams was an alien resembling an octopus but it was intelligent and somewhat pleasant to cummunucate with. It liked me in my dream.
There was one alien that I simply telepathically cummunucated with for a while in my dreams. It was about 37,000 light years away. They were reptilian with large tails. I saw images of the creature in my dream. It was also several levels of tech more advanced than us. I had asked about building a sub space communicator but gave up when I decided I didn't want to spend all my dream time and some awake time studying electrical engineering and circuit diagrams. I asked it to go contact someone else in my dreams of course on the third or fourth night I dreamed I was communicating.

The bigger payout is making good grades in college because job offers are higher dollar value the better you did. Best to get a job using your brain instead of manual labor.

Id stay away from futures. I heard you can have unlimited risk. Best to only lose up to 100% of all your money invested, not a lot more potentially. If losing all your money you invest bothers you a lot, don't do it. Some people do go broke and wipe out their money.
Now for a link for parents discussing money with kids. Maybe one person reading this or some single mothers who are stripping.

I'm not sure about not paying kids for good grades. I really liked the extra money and it seemed like an award to me for good work, not a bribe. I think I only got paid a dollar an a in high school so that might be like tipping a stripper a quarter.

I don't remember if it was something I read above or in a related link but I read millionaires think about how much time it took to save the money they are about to spend before they do so. If it took all day to save 80 bucks from your paycheck, maybe blowing it all in one hour on a meal out isn't worth it to you. You are trading a full day of work for that one meal. Reading is a great way to educate yourself.
