Flying Squirrel started the topic Silver in the forum Investment / Personal Finance 3 years ago

I have spent the past six years off-and-on studying silver in my spare time. I am interested in silver because I believe that an average joe like myself can make a lot of money investing in it, with very little risk, and that it would be great to have some on hand when the apocalypse hits. 😉 What I am about to share here I do with the hope that…[Read more]
Flying Squirrel replied to the topic Dow Jones Falls – Wall Street Blames Bernie in the forum General Discussion 3 years ago

It should be obvious that the stock market is at an abnormally high point right now and that in itself will cause the inevitable correction. Also, my personal observation has been that the year before and leading up to a highly uncertain presidential election is always a good time to sell stock if it’s been elevated. (Conversely, immediately a…[Read more]

@thouartthat Ya, been there and done that. Still living on a pretty small budget but finally able to start seriously working on (very small-time) investing. Hang in there!

@glinda Understood. It’s just a starting point for discussion on the broader issue: How do we, who mostly dislike capitalism and corporations, nevertheless avoid being completely left out of the opportunity to keep what little money we can manage to save from being eroded by inflation, and share in some of the benefits of a system we are cu…[Read more]

Publicly traded companies have an obligation to do whatever they can to generate profits for investors, but that doesn’t mean they are all solely focused on money. Some companies also make it a priority to operate both ethically and humanely. To help identify these socially responsible companies, Ethisphere International publishes an annual list o…[Read more]

On the bright side, some land that will be waterfront property some day is pretty affordable right now, 😉

Pretty sure the person who bought it was just buying notoriety.
Flying Squirrel replied to the topic The case for Bernie Sanders in the forum General Discussion 3 years ago

Perfectly shareable.
Flying Squirrel replied to the topic What to know about fake reviews when shopping online in the forum General Discussion 3 years ago

I only read the one-star reviews, looking for commonalities and seeing if I think the worst that people have experienced is worth the risk. I also look at the bar graph; 4% or more negative usually keeps the money in the wallet.

Impulse control is something he doesn’t do very well.
Flying Squirrel replied to the topic Bernie Sanders INTENDS to Carry Martin Luther King's Dream to its Completion and Deliver Economic Justice to All Our People in the forum General Discussion 3 years ago

Seeing him next to Dr. King gives me a shiver, and not in a good way.

Only needed one.

In case they need to draw some blood!
Flying Squirrel replied to the topic Stupidity and the DNC in the forum General Discussion 3 years ago

The funny thing is, Trump got what he wanted so badly after all… Bad publicity for Biden. He really could have found a less risky way to have this out there than extorting a foreign leader to announce it.

The political cartoons are being drawn up as we speak.

Excellent article, very shareable.
Flying Squirrel started the topic I don’t know how this guy has managed to avoid the ban-hammer in the forum DNC / Thirdway 3 years ago

“over there”, but check this out:

Maybe it’s because he’s too stupid to know that SV wasn’t hacked and that the reason it now sucks is because anyone with any sense departed or was forced out, not because of any hack. (It’s all hacks with these guys isn’t it? DNC server was “hacked”, the election was “hacked”, SV was “hacked.”)
Flying Squirrel replied to the topic OK, now what went wrong? in the forum Help and Q & A 3 years ago

Yes, we know. It was a coffee mug.
