You are saying exactly what I have been saying on here since we began hating each other years ago.
But a stock isn't a currency. You guys are claiming the value of Bitcoin is that it's a currency.
I see what you are saying. Pesos are a currency but you can't buy a house in the US with Pesos.
That's a very astute comment. I try to trade my profitable positions in an IRA account and an "Inherited IRA" account. I try to trade losses in my taxable accounts. That strategy is not always available though. A few years ago, I had to pay, I recall $230,000 in taxes. If I could have avoided that, I would have. It was just impossible knowing what I knew (as much as a non-insider would know) what was coming up for those stocks, compared to what I bought with those profits. The legendary investor Jim Rogers has said that he loves paying taxes because it means he is making more money. I like Mr. Rogers. But that comment from Mr. Rogers did not ease my pain.
By the way Ward, I did nearly the same thing in another sector this morning. Except I traded completely out of 2 stocks for 2 others, that based on their revenue streams, have way, way more leverage, now that the sector APPEARS to have broken out. Always looking for where I can get the most bang for the buck.
Keeping my fingers crossed. But even 84 days would be fast. I have expected BTC to get to 125,000, next year, with a parabolic move starting in November. But I'd love to be wrong with it getting there this year (coinciding with a surprisingly much, much better than expected year for Gamecock football).
Sourcing a Democrat’s memoirs is really rich. You might just as well source material on the war from the liberal dipshit from the Kennedy Administration that spoke at my Carolina commencement years ago. You might want to read and source material from other perspectives on the Vietnam war. I highly recommend “A Bright Shining Lie” (Vann) and “ The Best and the Brightest” (Halberstam). As one who was drafted during that time I have read extensively on the subject over the years.
The Stanford people are not known for being dummies in the academic circles. I mentioned 125,000 above. What I did not say was that is the minimum I expect. Actually, it's the 125,000-250,000 range.
$1M average? You live in Hilton Head or something? I thought it was Lancaster. I live in Aiken off a golf course in a good neighborhood. All the homes are 3k sq ft or more but none are $1M. My neighbors across the street live in a 5k sq ft brick castle with big columns and a pool. It's probably the most expensive house in the neighborhood valued around $650k.
So let me get this straight: you are finding fault with an incoming presidential candidate trying to subvert a crappy peace negotiations because said candidate thought he had a better idea about such negotiations. Is that correct? My question is So What? The Iran Peace negotiations come to mind where every candidate has his/her mind how they should be done.I'm not debating the damn Vietnam war with you. You are nuts. LOL
H.R. Haldeman was not a Democrat. He was Nixon's Chief of Staff. We have the actual notes.
H.R. Haldeman's Notes from Oct. 22, 1968
DEC. 31, 2016
During a phone call on the night of Oct. 22, 1968, Richard M. Nixon told his closest aide (and future chief of staff) H.R. Haldeman to "monkey wrench" President Lyndon B. Johnson's efforts to begin peace negotiations over the Vietnam War. Nixon long denied giving such an order, but Haldeman's notes, which were quietly made public in 2007 and were recently discovered by the historian Jack Farrell, prove he was lying.
No reason for you to do it too.
Notes Indicate Nixon Interfered With 1968 Peace Talks
Documents from aide seem to confirm long-time speculation that Nixon tried to scuttle a Vietnam peace deal to help his presidential campaignwww.smithsonianmag.com
Somebody will be happy. I doubt it will be the people with nothing.
