I like that in ya! :D

Anytime an entity gets power and/or control...many usually abuse it. Google, Police, Politicians. It's Sad because we enable them. They don't fear repercussions because there usually aren't any. Heck, a lot of folks would want to kiss their rings if they could :) Funny world we live in.
:soapbox:
 
Heard some folks saying that, when their account is down; they don't lose money if they don't sell.

Well, I couldn't have written a whole thing about that, but I've instead, "contracted it out:" :)

https://smallivy.wordpress.com/2011/06/15/you-dont-lose-money-in-stocks-unless-you-sell/

The idea of “paper losses,” and that you don’t actually lose money until you sell, however, is a false one. The value of your shares is whatever the value of your shares happen to be at the current time. Just because you paid $20 per share doesn’t mean you have not lost money when the stock price drops to $10 per share.

...

Does this mean that one should sell a stock when it declines in price and take the loss? No, certainly not. But one should also not hold onto a stock that has gone down in price just to avoid taking a loss. The stock is worth what it is worth. Just because you paid more for it does not mean that it will return to that price anytime soon. Even if it does return to that price after a long period and you are able to sell without taking a loss, you have lost the time value of the money invested. You could have invested in something else that went up while the dog you held sat there.

Good article userque. All the more reason I am standing pat. With the limitations we have in the TSP, the potential is there to get back to those higher prices. It might not happen tomorrow or even next week, but we are in the sweet spot of the year and the Santa Claus rally is just around the corner.

I know there is lots of talk about raising interest rates next month and I'm sure that is playing out, but I really don't think it will happen until April. The jobs number last week...How many of those were seasonal temporary jobs for the holidays? Janet know that...:D

Cool, I just wasn't sure you had ever heard the other side of the argument. Now, I see that you have. :)
 
Our Government does Controlled Burning of wooded areas all over the Country every year, where is Greenpeace? It's actually a GOOD thing to do and Mother Nature will do it for us if we don't. But now they are banning burning of wood to heat our homes? How many people actually use wood to heat their homes, Millions, thousands? They better keep their Progressive hands off of our BBQs!Zombie.gif

Wouldn't be surprised if BBQ's were next actually. They are a double whammy, wood-burning and carcinogen-producing on the foods that are charred on them. :rolleyes:
 
Money can buy a House............But not a Home
Money can buy a Bed..............But not Sleep
Money can buy a Clock............But not Time
Money can buy you a Book.........But not Knowledge
Money can buy you Medicine.......But not Health
Money can buy you Sex............But not Love

So you see money isn't everything. And it often causes pain and suffering. I tell you all this because I am your Friend, and as your Friend I want to take away your pain and suffering. So send me all your money..........

And I will suffer for you.

Lying is an uncontrollable response for some people, but cursing fellow members is despicable and not allowable.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!:D
