Not the type of skills I was talking about. The skills you speak of are equally important but out of my realm so I don't think about them. I'm pretty much a life long blue collar work with your hands type. Not much changes for me.
Seems freeing up man from labor = new and creative drugs and manufacturing of meth.
I don't know, but street sweepers and city residents must've been thrilled.
The current monetary tax system was designed to hold and clamp people in a specific lifestyle (where normal folks can't get ahead). Been my belief one of the best ways to wealth is to study and understand tax IRS laws and wide open loopholes. You can legally wait and hold losses for years...and take them to offset capital gains when you're ready. There's so many losses on everything...majority people won't even know of. It's rough documenting all "daily" purchases and losses...due to theft, natural elements-disasters, depreciation, resale. Then the other bag...of having to become a LLC without your name on anything...and the family trust.
Love that quote. Indeed ahead of his time, and every decade since.
Where or how would you advise someone to learn about all of this? I took accounting in college a few times. Lol.
Around here it is still a problem. The roads have plenty of horse manure from the Amish buggies. I dodge it every time I get on the road. I wish they would get a model T and drive. They drive tractors up and down the road all the time, no problem with those apparently.
GB emember when a Baby Ruth 1\4 pound bar could be bought for 25 cents. Big enough to have to take to the sawmill to divide
Considering that a really good performance horse can cost as much as a good used car or more, I don't think they're crying too hard. Plenty of horses get sold off the teat for amounts that feature a comma.
A minor inconvenience compared to turn of the century 1900.
I used "carry over" for years from the RE bubble in 2008. its not a loophole, just a IRS rule. I would have rather had a profit and paid taxes for the following 8 years.
true, you need to be related to Warren Buffet to make a good gain in the stock market.
Buffet is always selling the "buy and hold" strategy as though he uses it himself. I figure if everyone was using that strategy and it was successful, there would be a lot more Warren Buffets. I know a lot of people that have swallowed that pill and they are just mildly successful. What is really going on, I think, is that the big guys want stability in the market so they can depend on it. Then they work it to their advantage because they know how.
Got that right!
I cant disagree.
There's a few expert analysts and myself with stated belief: ..."you have to over-look good sound reasoning, be reckless and be young and dumb to get crazy wealthy". Cryptos are a typical example....Bitcoin , etherum, lite coin...are a bunch of junk that clueless retards got wealthy with. Gamestop..AMC another one.
And $1.50 for a bottle of plain water and $5.00 for a cup of coffee
not a chance in hades!!
