  1. talk to me about ditching long held single stocks that have grown to a state where they are intolerably risky

    i mean really this is probably not a stock question as much as a psychology thing about attachment and loss aversion, but I dunno. I invested a fairly smallish amount in a single company early in my career and... reviewing my portfolio again the other day made me realize how much it has grown and how it represents wayyy too much of my overall wealth for a single stock. but i don't really want to sell it because that's my boy, we've been through so much.

    any of y'all been burned? this doesn't feel like a stonks question since i've held it for 16 years

    But to me the thing about music is that when you bring the right pieces together 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 > 4. For the Beatles 1+1+1+1=~27. 

    the Pixies are like this but it's .3+.5+.1+.1 = 6

  3. Is this the thread where we've talked about Old 97s a bit?

     

    On first listen I like this one more than the first single from the new album. More old school classic rocking 97s as opposed to a Rhett song.

    The Old 97s are an all time favorite band of mine and I feel like i always complain about them when they come up. Today I'm going to complain about how dumb their artwork has been on every record since Fight Songs. I know they're past the GAF stage and maybe I missed my calling as an asshole A&R guy (and probably they got fucked up by asshole A&R guys earlier in their career) but goddamn have a little bit of consistency and then choose art that matches your vibe. Did Rhett's wife paint this?
