The DOW is up almost 1% in 20 minutes. If a guy has $1M in the market, he earned $10,000 in that 20 minutes. He is probably wrapping up a western omelet in the kitchen. A profitable morning.
I'll spend the rest of my day playing golf, before a brisk wind comes along.
Y'all can spend all your time doing this, or, you can get serious about the opportunity in this country and chase some dreams. If you had simply bought Roku and the obvious winner, Tesla, when I suggested it, you'd be playing golf right now.
Just trying to be helpful. Be happy for me and for your friends. Or follow Biden et al into oblivion. Its looking like he is making my predictions come true.
@averagejoe1 saidI don't want you arrested for being well to do, but I do want you and your rich buddies to pay more capital gains tax. If you want to waste land and resources playing golf you should have to pay for it in capital gains taxes.

I also want capital gains taxes to be paid on money going into foundations and trusts. That loophole has been abused enough.
@metal-brain saidThanks for your thoughtful response, and I agree with you. The rich should pay a larger percentage of taxes. But, they already pay quite a bit, so you must be suggesting that they pay even more.

Would you look at this really cool chart that sets out the present circumstances, easy to read for most of our posters, ,,,,some will not understand.
Then, tell us how much more the higher earners should pay, how much more than they are already paying?
I think we can resolve a lot of posts that we've wrestled with over the years. You don't have to reference the time-worn phrase 'fair share' , since it has no definition. Here is a great link.

@averagejoe1 saidIt is great. If you have a modest inheritance invested in an index fund, the money your grand-dad earned through hard work makes more money than a full time job at McDonalds. You can sit at home and type things on keyboards for the internets!

Uhhhh, you think it is Joe Biden doing....anything? Nobody listens to AvJoe...It is Susan Rice and Obama. His plan (transform America) could not be done in a day,, this 4 years is all part of the process, I assure you that Obama is not sitting on a beach in the sun. He is real busy, he is creating his REAL legacy, as changer of everything in the world, which would happen if he gets what he wants for America.
Keep your eye on the sparrow.
@averagejoe1 saidHey, you mentioned Joe Biden here. If it's Susan Rice behind the skyrocketing stock market, you should go ahead and type that instead.

Up 30% since election day. Thanks to whoever is pulling strings on the Biden marionette. Rich people don't need to work anymore!
@averagejoe1 saidI have a decent if small portfolio. Still learning, but mainly dividends. Sold a double bagger last week, but it was my first.

@wildgrass saidThat has been the case far before Joe Biden.

Thanks, Joe Biden!
The wealthy get their way. That is no surprise.
The USA is a Plutocracy.
@metal-brain saidA "trillions of dollars in deficit spending every year" plutocracy.
That has been the case far before Joe Biden.

Thanks Ronald Reagan.

@wildgrass saidBubble Buster here.....We are still riding the Trump market, the Trump economy. I just hate it for you. Hey, tell us if you think Biden, who never had a real business, (and somehow got REEEAAALL rich) could possibly have business sense.

You know, one of the most telling differences 'tween socialists and capitalists, is that Suzianne likes to say we should never elect businessmen to run (the business of) government!!!! Ask her if you dont believe me, she really thinks that.
@averagejoe1 saidThe national debt rose by $7.8 trillion under Trump. Debt owed to investors is now 100% of GDP. With record low unemployment, booming stock market, great economy, the glory years of 2017-2020 were all financed by an enormous mountain of debt. Ranked by deficit growth, Trump's presidency is #3 behind Honest Abe Lincoln and George W. Bush. The other 2 had good excuses. That's the Trump economy.

@wildgrass saidOK,lets say that has merit. So we have to decide, let us banter about that, OR, let us imagine what will happen when the country is flooded with $5Trillion the Admistration ( I just can't say Biden, he does not know it is Monday) will spew out if they get their way. Who gets hurt the most? The Middle class. Google it.

Or, Or, Or, y'all can talk about past presidents. Yawn city. You cannot discuss yawn city in a few words, because you had to have been in the room when such decisions were made. Ohhh, yeah, of course, didn't think of that.
Let's solve today's problems. Like if Manchin caves, where do you put your money? Tax Free bonds? a new car? what do you do?
