    Death and taxes(stocks)

    I said Investment legend Jim Rogers likes paying more taxes because it means he is having investment success. That is equating his investment performance (success) with paying long-term and short-term capital gains. And then you went on your detour. It's like you were trying to start a fight...

    Death and taxes(stocks)

    FYI, my original comment was regarding investments. How in the hell and why it detoured from what I originally referred to (investments), is puzzling. And BTW, when I got promoted or a big pay raise, I did not mind paying more taxes due to it. There may be times my taxes went up without a pay...

    Death and taxes(stocks)

    Investment income is different from fixed income. Didn't McMaster and the state legislature raise our gas tax to pay for improved infrastructure? As one who has driven the roads of South Carolina, I had no problem with that. But, that's me.

    When I heard it, the first thing that occurred to me was Pam Parsons.

    OT: 11 Bitcoin ETFs Approved by SEC.

    Thank you to Ward Jr. for starting it. I think he took some unwarranted slams from some for doing so in the beginning. That's life. As one who used to regulate the sales of investment products, advisers, brokers, etc. in the state, investing is of interest to me, actually a hobby. Bitcoin...

    OT: 11 Bitcoin ETFs Approved by SEC.

    If you are in the right sectors, you can make life-changing money. Have a plan and execute it. It's no different than getting ready for a football opponent.

    OT: 11 Bitcoin ETFs Approved by SEC.

    You could be right. At this moment, I hold only one crypto stock. It was up over 20% today. I suppose I could sell it. But I expect it to increase nearly 4x by the end of this year. Of course, I could be wrong. Time will tell.

    Paris getting paid!

    Wouldn't it be fantastic for Tanner to give up the AD position to return to the baseball dugout?

    Paris getting paid!

    Paris is the best SC men's basketball coach since Frank McGuire. Glad he likes us and vice versa.

    Congratulations to South Carolina and Lamont Paris

    Will be suspenseful looking at the NCAA Tourney Selection Show. BS like the NET rankings will make it so.

    After the game, with the camera on Lamont, the SEC studio guys said we are looking at the National Coach Of The Year.

    NCAA- NIL development

    Prior to all this, the players got a free education for playing. I guess that was not enough. I know that I worked in textile mills at all hours while going to college. While in graduate school, I worked a desk at one of the dorms .I would have loved to get a free education back in the day. Of...

    OT: 11 Bitcoin ETFs Approved by SEC.

    If those people bet the farm, then, yes, they can potentially "lose everything". People who bet the farm on anything, are foolish. At its peak the other week, crypto made up around 8% of my portfolio. I took profits at least twice since then. Now crypto makes up about 3% of my portfolio. THAT...

    I understand the skepticism towards bitcoin. But you can make money in bitcoin. Just don't fall in love with it. In my portfolio, I'm in only 2 sectors that I intend to hold on to forever. Bitcoin is not one of them.

    If we win out... we will be, at worst, co-SEC champs...

    And Lamont seems like a really easy going good guy. VERY likeable. That has not always been the case with some of our coaches in all our sports.
