I don’t see room for Lily! I have one monitor on my desk and an Amaazon box next to it where my cat lounges like she’s in a tub. My office is on the third floor and Lily seems to prefer hanging out on the first floor. I think it's cause that's where her food bowl and bathroom are. :D I have a coupl...

I’m always down for more monitors!!!! Something to consider - try turning one vertical. I find that super hand for reading long word files or vertically oriented spreadsheets. Oooooh dang. I didn't consider that. Alright, I'll give it a shot and see if these display mounts can be reset vertically. O0

I recently got a 2560 x 1440 27" display to add to my home setup (top left). When I'm sitting down to work I basically see nothing but display now. For years I've been stuck on 1920 x 1080 for standalone monitors. Man, the extra resolution really helps. I was debating if I should go 4K, but the...

I am attracted to that version of the Permanent Portfolio. The implementation will be fairly easy once I determine how many differently taxed retirement vehicles I have. Then a decision will have to be made if it gets implemented any differently for Roth / Traditional taxed ones. Which of the four ...

lol right??

There is a Facebook Permanent Portfolio group. It only has six members (including me) and the below represents its second to last activity since May 29th. So clearly not an active group. Capture.JPG Are you using the PP? Of course he isn't. Like I said. I guess 3.5 years on this forum isn't enough ...

lmao

Coffee shop kinda vibe today for work.

Nacho variation number 2! This time with extra cheese, prosciutto, and cooked a few minutes longer. Way yummier than the first time (which was pretty damn good to begin with).

Vinny, you’ve got me on Facebook. Can you invite me?

Just so not every post is off topic: yes, I'm still sticking with Treasurys as per my sig. :D As for the name calling, anger, and tirades, I honestly just don't understand. This is an Internet forum where we discuss, post interesting things, and sometimes share things going on in our personal lives....

lol

honestly…down the toilet you go TLT -2.2%, GLD -1.1% cinco de mayo, bye bye yo… lmao ok You have a bear market in 2/3 assets. Not sure what’s so funny. A down day of 1% can cost me around 100K+. It pays not to have taken the LTT losses. It is funny. And it's extra funny that you're stressing about ...

I noticed the collar on her, which I do not think I'd ever prior noticed.

That is a tearaway collar? She goes outdoors?

Yup! Tearaway, just in case she gets caught on something outdoors or on the terrace.

I don’t hold LTT’s so I have been spared the rout. If you go back a few threads you’ll see me write “soon people on this board will be touting the 25% cash position as the saving grace”. Also, cash has not done its job as it has under-performed inflation. Point is the PP has an achilles heal and ri...

On another note: I love that I've adopted a strategy that most people don't like, or even despise. Going with the crowd and the "cheery consensus" hardly yields good results. Give me unusual any day of the week. SPY YTD -17% TLT YTD -22% GLD YTD -5% How could you possibly be comfortable w...

Budd, serious question, why do you continue to frequent the forum if this strategy causes you this much angst and irritation?

Ahhhhh makes sense now.

The Walmart Great Value brand is indeed, well, a great value. Only three some odd bucks Canadian and it makes like... a billion cups of coffee. It tastes surprisingly decent, too.

Lily biting into our poor flowers...

I'm still using DOS.
