Let's be honest, there's no Republican you guys are going to like. That's fine, but if that's the case this exercise in proving why DeSantis is bad is kind of pointless.

---

From a policy perspective? No, I don't like Republicans, except maybe on the occasional individual issue.

But just as people? There are plenty who don't seem like a**holes. Mitt Romney, for example.

---

True story - I met Mitt Romney while escorting my son's 8th grade class to DC. He was adjacent to us in the airport and on the tram. He is among the biggest a**holes I've ever encountered in my life, politics or not politics. Just dripping in arrogance and not to be bothered by interacting with the peasants who are below his place in life. He refused a picture with the boys and did it in a way that was really just not nice. His wife realized what an a-hole he was being, jumped in and got him to do it. I seriously do not like that guy. If he died in a plane crash this morning I … well, I wouldn't shed a single tear. Yes, he made that much of a negative impression in just 10-15 minutes. Terrible terrible human.

---

I bet Mitt Romney thinks anyone who has worked the past ten years is either a multi-millionaire or financially illiterate.

---

The jab that just won't stop...

---

I admit, that was funny. Not nearly in the wealth zone of Romney so he would have said something even more out of touch like couple of billions. But I bet he wouldn't have called the peak of equities in 2017, called the inflation transitory or claimed modern data shows printing money does not affect inflation, or proclaim that treasuries were good investment right before interest rate hikes. Maybe he did but never posted them on BI. And if he did post those nonsense on BI, he wouldn't continue to pretend to be an expert in finance despite getting every single prediction wrong.

How is your recession treating you? Don't you want to hear about my consulting job?

The difference between you and me is that I address my mistakes about my future predictions.

You get things wrong in real time then lie and argue and get hysterical, denying it. You also lie about me and continue to lie about me. You also show that you still don't understand the issue. If the last 13 years have taught us anything it is that printing money is NOT necessarily inflationary. Putting money into the hands of regular Americans with fiscal policy can be inflationary. Also, the war in Ukraine really exacerbated this inflationary period, which none of us knew about at the time of the original discussion. So, bully for you.

---

My retirement is going very well, thank you very much. I am enjoying serving on a public board and enjoying seeing the regulatory developments on nominating and governance committee and audit committee. I get insight from those with actual expertise and not just those playing one here like you.

What did I lie about when I wrote my predictions here for everyone to see? You predicted peak in 2017 and claimed you made money on bonds when they were one of the worst performers (everything made money but you lost out on one of the biggest runs) in 2017. Instead, I wrote then (all there in posting history) to invest in DHR, APPL, Amazon back in 2017. I started a thread in February 2021 about the risk of inflation and how I was selling growth stocks and going into cyclicals and energy because of upcoming inflation and recession. You said inflation does not exist, demand for treasuries would make printing money irrelevant. You probably had no idea what I was writing about when I wrote (all there) that my friends had communicated even back then that they had never seen supply chain constraints that bad in their years of leadership and lead time as long all coming from accelerated demand and shut down in manufacturing from COVID. I wrote at the beginning of this summer that there is still rough waters for equity and that this was a bear rally but that long term investors should just hold on. Companies were going to go into cost cutting measures as demand slows down, risk accelerated, layoffs planned and excess inventory is worked through. Please point to one thing that I missed or lied about. It was all there. You are an amateur on these things and have no resources or insight but just play one here to impress those who think you know anything. Then you say you were going in on treasury earlier this year when Fed indicated it will start fighting inflation. Who does that? You suck at this. We all know it. Either fire your financial advisor or get a real one.

---

How's your recession going that you said we are in? Don't you want to hear about my consulting job?

I'll just start with my 2017 - 2020 trade that you are obsessed with and that I made a killing on and posted on in real time. Your approach to that is to now just talk about 2017 as if what happened in that singular year matters to a long term investor.

I could go on, but who cares. You aren't going to stop with your lies.

---

What do I care about your puny career? I was told you were a consultant, which was more than what I actually thought you do. You are a petty, insignificant loser with no actual insight. I could not care less what you do. It is not anything that gives you insight or knowledge.

Whatever you are doing, you have no insight into actual industrial leaders and secular trends. Ask someone with actual experience like Unit2 how the tech spending and employment markets are. Ask industrial companies whether there are hiring freezes and restructuring planned. You have no clue all of the headwinds, from currency exchange rate, inflation, continuing supply chain despite some inventory excess (you only need on of you key component to be out to hold off production), EU energy driven recession, China's continuing COVID shut downs, etc. Your kind of idiocy is what led you to proudly claim that inflation is transitory and that people are better off.

You sold all your equity in 2017. Let's see what my large holdings in DHR, APPL, Amazon, Roper (which is only the discretionary holdings I do apart from what is managed for me by my financial advisor for legacy reasons) did since 2017, all of the stocks I said were better than your bond rotations coming out of equity. Go check. You are pathetic. It's like someone who made $1 dollar return while everyone made $1,000 and claiming that they made a killing. YOU MISSED OUT ON THE BIGGEST RUN IN EQUITY BECAUSE YOU CALL THE TOP IN 2017. You also missed out on getting out before the bear market when you mocked my call in February 2021 that inflation is coming and that even this Fed will be forced to act, that growth stocks that are valued based on future earnings will get their multiples whacked, etc. You suck. We all know it.

I will put up my wealth and my returns, my investments, etc. against yours anytime. It is clear to me that you have absolutely no insight or practical knowledge. You clearly have no dealings with those who actually run or operate companies. People who don't deal with industries may think you know what you are talking about. Those who have practical and actual experience know you are full of *****

---

I made a killing and that burns you up. It's like a worm in your brain that you can't get rid of. I rode a huge ride up on Long Term Treasuries, sold at the top in 2020 and bought equities at the bottom in 2020, then made all that equity money too. I posted the trades in real-time on Growls. I hogged up all the gains from Treasuries and about 2/3's of the gains from equities from 2017 on. You lie about it over and over and over again. Get a life.

Earlier this year I talked about rebalancing my portfolio, which required adding long term Treasuries and you seem to be obsessed about that too. Really. Get a life. I am not comparing myself to you. I don't care about your trades. I never bring them up. I am happy for you that you are making money.

---

come on now. both of you. There are people reading this thread that have far more wealth than either of you. This just looks silly. Besides; wealth is only one element of success and arguable one of the less important.

---

Sorry for the garbage. I honestly don't care about my wealth because I am one of those people who live way, way below my means and plan to pass on most to charities and to my kids. Couple of folks who obsess over me and keep trolling me like fan girls cause all this noise. I am a big part of that as well. I should ignore them when they seek out my attention but I have fail to do so. Did not mentioned wealth initially. It was only when a troll who obsessed over me acts like some expert and gets every single economic prediction wrong. Every single one. It was only when he claimed I was upset about the money he made investing in treasury during the equity bull run that I called him on it. I do apologize for the garbage. Just a few trolls who are smarting from me calling them out previously. Will ignore them even when they act like jilted ex-girlfriends.

Some of these guys here just dont know when to stop digging.

Very thin-skinned.
They never learn.

Their EGO is so MASSIVE they just cant help themselves.

You have no clue all of the headwinds, from currency exchange rate, inflation, continuing supply chain despite some inventory excess (you only need on of you key component to be out to hold off production), EU energy driven recession, China's continuing COVID shut downs, etc. Your kind of idiocy is what led you to proudly claim that inflation is transitory and that people are better off.

You sold all your equity in 2017. Let's see what my large holdings in DHR, APPL, Amazon, Roper (which is only the discretionary holdings I do apart from what is managed for me by my financial advisor for legacy reasons) did since 2017, all of the stocks I said were better than your bond rotations coming out of equity. Go check. You are pathetic. It's like someone who made $1 dollar return while everyone made $1,000 and claiming that they made a killing. YOU MISSED OUT ON THE BIGGEST RUN IN EQUITY BECAUSE YOU CALL THE TOP IN 2017. You also missed out on getting out before the bear market when you mocked my call in February 2021 that inflation is coming and that even this Fed will be forced to act, that growth stocks that are valued based on future earnings will get their multiples whacked, etc. You suck. We all know it.

I will put up my wealth and my returns, my investments, etc. against yours anytime. It is clear to me that you have absolutely no insight or practical knowledge. You clearly have no dealings with those who actually run or operate companies. People who don't deal with industries may think you know what you are talking about. Those who have practical and actual experience know you are full of *****

---

I made a killing and that burns you up. It's like a worm in your brain that you can't get rid of. I rode a huge ride up on Long Term Treasuries, sold at the top in 2020 and bought equities at the bottom in 2020, then made all that equity money too. I posted the trades in real-time on Growls. I hogged up all the gains from Treasuries and about 2/3's of the gains from equities from 2017 on. You lie about it over and over and over again. Get a life.

Earlier this year I talked about rebalancing my portfolio, which required adding long term Treasuries and you seem to be obsessed about that too. Really. Get a life. I am not comparing myself to you. I don't care about your trades. I never bring them up. I am happy for you that you are making money.

---

come on now. both of you. There are people reading this thread that have far more wealth than either of you. This just looks silly. Besides; wealth is only one element of success and arguable one of the less important.

---

Wow. Just wow.

---

So you're saying there aren't other very wealthy people around here or that wealth IS the only element of success?

Either way: Wow. Just wow.

---

Absolutely not the only element of success. It is an element of success since most want money, but not the only one. Some of my idols abandoned wealth to make the world a better place.

But let's also not pretend this is even close to an example of extreme bad behavior here. Can guarantee a few of the same trolls will create more petty trolling and feign shock from this and betray complete lack of self-awareness. And many will not say a peep about that trolling. Guarantee it.

Wow.
Just wow.

Someone that has spent hours and hours stepping on his own dick in public . . . is talking about SELF AWARENESS.

Let's be honest, there's no Republican you guys are going to like. That's fine, but if that's the case this exercise in proving why DeSantis is bad is kind of pointless.

---

From a policy perspective? No, I don't like Republicans, except maybe on the occasional individual issue.

But just as people? There are plenty who don't seem like a**holes. Mitt Romney, for example.

---

True story - I met Mitt Romney while escorting my son's 8th grade class to DC. He was adjacent to us in the airport and on the tram. He is among the biggest a**holes I've ever encountered in my life, politics or not politics. Just dripping in arrogance and not to be bothered by interacting with the peasants who are below his place in life. He refused a picture with the boys and did it in a way that was really just not nice. His wife realized what an a-hole he was being, jumped in and got him to do it. I seriously do not like that guy. If he died in a plane crash this morning I … well, I wouldn't shed a single tear. Yes, he made that much of a negative impression in just 10-15 minutes. Terrible terrible human.

---

I bet Mitt Romney thinks anyone who has worked the past ten years is either a multi-millionaire or financially illiterate.

---

The jab that just won't stop...

---

I admit, that was funny. Not nearly in the wealth zone of Romney so he would have said something even more out of touch like couple of billions. But I bet he wouldn't have called the peak of equities in 2017, called the inflation transitory or claimed modern data shows printing money does not affect inflation, or proclaim that treasuries were good investment right before interest rate hikes. Maybe he did but never posted them on BI. And if he did post those nonsense on BI, he wouldn't continue to pretend to be an expert in finance despite getting every single prediction wrong.

---

How is your recession treating you? Don't you want to hear about my consulting job?

The difference between you and me is that I address my mistakes about my future predictions.

You get things wrong in real time then lie and argue and get hysterical, denying it. You also lie about me and continue to lie about me. You also show that you still don't understand the issue. If the last 13 years have taught us anything it is that printing money is NOT necessarily inflationary. Putting money into the hands of regular Americans with fiscal policy can be inflationary. Also, the war in Ukraine really exacerbated this inflationary period, which none of us knew about at the time of the original discussion. So, bully for you.

---

My retirement is going very well, thank you very much. I am enjoying serving on a public board and enjoying seeing the regulatory developments on nominating and governance committee and audit committee. I get insight from those with actual expertise and not just those playing one here like you.

What did I lie about when I wrote my predictions here for everyone to see? You predicted peak in 2017 and claimed you made money on bonds when they were one of the worst performers (everything made money but you lost out on one of the biggest runs) in 2017. Instead, I wrote then (all there in posting history) to invest in DHR, APPL, Amazon back in 2017. I started a thread in February 2021 about the risk of inflation and how I was selling growth stocks and going into cyclicals and energy because of upcoming inflation and recession. You said inflation does not exist, demand for treasuries would make printing money irrelevant. You probably had no idea what I was writing about when I wrote (all there) that my friends had communicated even back then that they had never seen supply chain constraints that bad in their years of leadership and lead time as long all coming from accelerated demand and shut down in manufacturing from COVID. I wrote at the beginning of this summer that there is still rough waters for equity and that this was a bear rally but that long term investors should just hold on. Companies were going to go into cost cutting measures as demand slows down, risk accelerated, layoffs planned and excess inventory is worked through. Please point to one thing that I missed or lied about. It was all there. You are an amateur on these things and have no resources or insight but just play one here to impress those who think you know anything. Then you say you were going in on treasury earlier this year when Fed indicated it will start fighting inflation. Who does that? You suck at this. We all know it. Either fire your financial advisor or get a real one.

---

How's your recession going that you said we are in? Don't you want to hear about my consulting job?

I'll just start with my 2017 - 2020 trade that you are obsessed with and that I made a killing on and posted on in real time. Your approach to that is to now just talk about 2017 as if what happened in that singular year matters to a long term investor.

I could go on, but who cares. You aren't going to stop with your lies.

---

What do I care about your puny career? I was told you were a consultant, which was more than what I actually thought you do. You are a petty, insignificant loser with no actual insight. I could not care less what you do. It is not anything that gives you insight or knowledge.

You haven't seen me brag about my wealth. You have seen me defend myself against lies.

I have no doubt calbear93, Diablo, wife and many others have more wealth than me. It's irrelevant.

This is truly a 1934 election with young people taking the reins of the country. Not as strong as 1934 because of longer lifespans, but same long term result.

Senate most likely to be Dem 51-49. House still up for grabs. In fact, if i had to name the person with the most likely chance of being Speaker right now, I would say Liz Cheney.

This year was the first midterm year that a party in power has not lost control of a single state legislative chamber since 1934. Instead, Democrats gained control of many chambers.
