This is my approach.

I have hubris. But also some self-awareness.

20-50% into broad market indexes. 50-70% into messing around and generic picks.

Of my own picks, only a few have outperformed the s&p50p. Some are... not good. If I happen to find another nvidia I'll be very happy. If I don't, I'll be able to retire at a not unreasonable age.

People comparing the hits of yesteryear to the norms or even lows of today is a thing.

Yeah... I'm pretty sure the white space is part of the spec for a QR code.

I think the actual take is probably closer to "I wish we went back to a time when record companies would take a bet on anyone, regardless of the overall package, looks etc"

Which tbh, is probably more of a fairy tale view of years olden days than anything else.

I'm really curious if they can make video injection of ads cost effective.

It feels like mangeling video streams into one, potentially re-encoding the video as they go... sounds expensive

Partner has a phd. Can confirm she recommends no one ever do it.

She only finished it out of spite, so her paper work no longer has miss/Mrs and no relation to her marriage status.

"Oh no, I made money, better put a small percentage of my gains away for tax season, just like I do with all of my income, because I'm American and lack a good PAYE system".

There's a very good reason they should be taxed; half a dozen people are richer than god, and basically never pay any real amount of tax.

"Yes*"

*As with all rules, it can vary by country. As I understand it, the US tends to double tax dividends, which is a rabbit hole of why the US market chases valuation so hard

I think a law stating you can't borrow against unrealized gains would be sensible.

You can keep your unrealized gains forever, live of your dividends for all i care, and pay no tax. But realizing them, either through selling or borrowing against, triggers a taxation.

Oceania tends to refer to the region, including both Australia, New Zealand, Melanesia, Micronesia, and the many small island nations.

Sometimes, we are "collectivly" treated as a continent, despite being almost all island nations with no land boarders.

Expanse tight beams are on their way
