I dont know why throughout my life I was never given a man who is truly responsible, who has a strong sense of responsibility especially financially. Problem with me is the huge premium I put on good looks who turn out feel...

Jim Bauer @yoalldudes It is. Life always presents challenges. How things go depend on how we accept them and how we deal with them.

Jim Bauer Thank you. We are looking forward to it and I think it should be fun. I could with nicer weather, but it is supposed to be in the high 40s, low 50s, so it won't be terrible.

This is something that occurs to me from time to time. It's who's advice some people tend to weigh more heavily on when it comes to financial matters. Take me. I listen to the words and follow the activities and ideas of people...

Jim Bauer As Robert Kiyosaki of Rich Dad, Poor Dad once said, "They call them brokers because they are broker than you are." I don't rely on advisors either. Any research I do comes from my own efforts. It has worked well for me. In any event, one has to think, if...

From time to time, companies either need to unload cash or something else happens that they feel more is due to shareholders than their typical dividend. They are most often referred to as "supplemental dividends." One such...

Jim Bauer Usually, if you done your "homework," you can find good reasons why a stock moves one way or another, and can better assess whether or not the moves are justified. When I am invested in a company it is never a one and done thing. I constantly reevaluate my...

Laurels, motives and ulterior motives are all great things. So are convictions and principles. But at the end of the day? When there is money involved? Sometimes you just suck it up and do what you got to do. I have always said...

Jim Bauer That's it, really, right? Make the money. They are going to make it anyway. I might as well take my cut and if I want to be an activist, I'll have better funding to make a bigger impact.

Vice President Moron had another talk Thursday and of course she gave us some more word salad with it. I thought their speeches were written for them. If someone writes them for her, she needs to fire them and if she is just a...

Jim Bauer @Bensen32 Maybe is right, because there IS a funny thing happening. It's that people are shifting and in big numbers, and this will not bode well for the democrats. I wish I could find a very interesting article that talked about this...but it is eluding me....

Let me simply start by saying that Tesla's stock has long been overvalued. And by a heap ton. Before the stock crashed roughly 60% in value, the market cap of Tesla was bigger than Ford, GM, Honda and Toyota—combined. In...

Jim Bauer @FourWalls @moffittjc Personally I don't mind Coors, although I rarely drink it. Most of the time you will find me with a Miller Lite in my hand, but I am also a HUGE fan of IPAs.

Jim Bauer @RubyHawk Yeah, you have to click on "street view," then it lets you "drive" around and peek at everything just like you are in your car. It's kinda cool actually.

Jim Bauer @CarolDM Very true, and very well understood. The clincher for me is that the ones who don't want it or are too stuborn to listen are usually the ones who do all the complaining they don't have enough and then blame society, the rich, and unfairness for all of...

Jim Bauer Nice and simple, that's how we always like to roll. I wish it was still camper season or we'd roll that bad boy out. But hopefully we get to find a cool campground around there somewhere we can revisit later.
