He already signed it. Shit will be in the courts for years on appeal.

Shit works great. Who cares if it isn't snazzy looking and lacks rainbow colors and shit.

I don't care if it looks good, I just want to be able to intuitively use it. They've got iFrames and shit in there. Feels like enterprise boomer software where "hard to use" is expected.

I got all my stonks added to a watch list, but that's about it, lol. I'll hunt down some youtube videos tomorrow.

Stagflation? Who could have called that one?

Oh, it was everyone who noted that J Pow and the Fed didn't raise interest rates over the real rate of inflation meaning that stagflation would be the inescapable result?
Huh, weird.

Now expand this concept to your own expenses.
I know this is tongue in cheek, but yes. My emergency fund (Marcus, kids allowance is in ally) grows about half as much as my monthly deposit. Under Trump, my 401k was growing faster than my deposits.

Thanks to inflation, that's not happening under Biden. This year has been ok, but you can only be happy with that if you ignore Bidens first 2 years and overall inflation for the past 3.

I'm happy I dumped a chunk of my Roth into Spaxx earlier this year.

Interesting how the fundamentals never change.

Not tongue in cheek at all.

It's the concept behind financial independence. The first time your portfolio moves more than your salary (be it in a day, week, or month) is pretty crazy. Once it starts approaching yearly, well, work becomes optional.
