    2024 Draw results

    Called MtFWP yesterday. They were running the draw yesterday. They shutdown the MyFWP as a result. Results should be out in a day or 2. They are reviewing everything as we speak, and if it went properly, the results will be made public. Maybe Weds.

    I was a Lipper 4 & 5 star manager. Just sayin' Do you mean beat the index in absolute return, or on a risk-adjusted basis? If you beat the index, you beat it by taking on more risk (in general). When the market is going up, risk pays. If stocks have gone up a lot and are very expensive, it pays...

    Fixing social security

    Fully agreed about the many not understanding economics. Nevertheless, the thread was started as Fixing Social Security. I didn't start it, but I am a pension asset/liability expert as a professional in the investment business at a major investment manager for 35 years. I also learned a lot form...

    Had a few questions. Do you have to use limited entry tags to hunt elk or mule deer where your cabin is located? Im in Florida, when I get a tag I usually go up for a couple of months to get used to the elevation. What hunting district are you. Address so I can look it up on OnX? Cost per month...

    Fixing social security

    Agreed on your assessment. I tell people to look for the warning signs. When people get into debt troubles, they first start running up the credit cards, then they have a yards sale, then the car gets repossessed, then they get evicted. Both these parties have run up the debt levels. I'll vote...

    Elk Caliber and Bullet Choice - 2024

    I haven't read all the posts from page one, but it seems to me that most here are shooting pretty stiff rounds; heavy 30 caliber magnums and bigger. Correct me if I'm wrong, but most arn't shooting a .270 or 6.5 CM, right? Ive only killed 1 elk, try not to attack me. I'd maintain that elk ain't...

    Fixing social security

    I saw a few pages back how one post stated that people werent moving out of CA because taxes were similar to their home state. Those were just the explicit taxes. How about all the implicit/imbedded taxes on businesses and all the ridiculous regulations that eventually flow through to product...

    Fixing social security

    You are naive as hell. People really don't know the reall story on social security, medicare, and state & local govt retirement benefits. The retirement medical care is EXPENSIVE. A friend who was a fireman in Pittsburgh told me "You think I got good healthcare, the teachers NEVER pay a...

    Fixing social security

    How about that BigHorn! The Penna & New York retirees move to Florida and condos to rent out, and pay not state income tax. But they still maintain a house for 5.5 mos up in their "favorite" state. They want Biden in for another 4 years so he can give a handout to these states to filter money...

    Fixing social security

    Depending on the state, the pensions are sinking some states. California for one. Some prison gaurds have retired on $250,000-300,000 a year in pension. Probably Illinois, Penna, NY, MI, to name a few. Maybe the slary isn't that high but pensions and medical benefits are out of control.
