I'm currently rewatching Titanic on Netflix. Yes it's because of the recent news. Too soon? ??? I did see it at the movies. An okay movie but certainly not near being one of the greatest of all time and one which I have never watched again. I think that because it's a love story it probably appeals...

I personally keep the same asset allocation in every type of account. This is a "satisficing" type of solution that guarantees solid results even if they are technically less than optimal.

So I guess my answer would be that I have gold in every type of account I have.

Me too. I was so excited to read it when it first came out I paid full price!

Just ordered that Jobs book! Had been prior unaware of it. I thought it was a really great book. It focuses more on business success, as the title implies. It's a different style and tone from the Walter Isaacson biography. That's usually the one everyone reads, which is a shame because there's ple...

You starting this topic brought her to the forefront of my attention which led to watching the documentary, the 8 part Hulu series, reading the book and then, again, watching the documentary. Reading the Wikipedia entries on both her and the company. But with her now in prison and that seemingly be...

The one thing that might give me pause on the whole idea of a pregnancy ploy is the fact that she knows she's in her late thirties and was very likely to be put away for many years. If you're in your late thirties and want to have children, but know you will be in menopause by the time you get out ...

If you had just tried it, Vin….

Priceless Vinny.

My copy arrived ahead of schedule on Saturday. Yours? I had not opened the package but thought it was it and was contemplating bringing it with me to the music festival yesterday. But decided not. Opened it a few minutes ago and confirmed that I have it. Will start it today at some point. Yup I've ...

I just finished watching Mad Max for the first time ever. I honestly don’t get the hype. The movie was very meh to me. I also now especially don’t get why Bogleheads always refer to the “Mad Max scenario” when discussing gold as an investment. Does anyone really think that this corresponds with real...

Also, as an aside, it is the mark of a great investment forum that we hardly even talk about investing.. because we have all achieved equanimity through "gyroscopic" strategies. O0 ...Unlike a certain other knuckleheaded forum. Unlike a submersible, a gyroscopic abides. A gyroscopic portf...

At no age would I have even gone in it. In 1981 I went to some museum in Chicago and they had a captured German submarine on its front lawn, which you could walk through which I did. This was a beautiful summer day, as stated it was just sitting on the ground, yet in the few minutes I spent walking...

I was dismayed to learn she was married a while back.

While we are on the topic is surprises me that we don't have more members of this forum that are gamers, given that it seems like we are mostly male. Is it a generational thing?

This is from the Logitech game controller webpage on Amazon.

The Internet never ceases to amaze me…

My attention has really been captured by that missing submersible exploring the Titanic the past couple days. Apparently they found the debris and that a hull implosion was likely what happened. These craft were experimental and it seems that cyclical fatigue finally made the submersible bite the du...

Given that Zuckerberg is a robot he'd definitely win.

I didn’t even know who he was so I had to google him.

Thanks for doing the research work for me! I implicitly trusted your recommendation and did not find I needed to do any additional research on my own.

Thanks for the vote of confidence! The PP community rocks.

Finished watching the 8 part series last night. Consistently excellent from start to finish. Book to arrive in a week or two. Will read it quite quickly once it arrives. But, maybe, I'll get a nice surprise and it will get to me sooner than then. I just got a copy too! I had thought you'd already r...

Hey Man, hide that in spoiler tags! O0 Oh right, we don’t have spoiler tags on this forum. At least I don’t think we do. [spoiler] nope [/spoiler] The episode you mention is one of my favorites. I linked it to my ex girlfriend and she cried. In my opinion, Black Mirror season 6 is great. And crazy....
