  1. With my risk tolerance, yes it does.
  2. Anyone care to give the pros and cons of JEPI. I currently have about 5% of my investment portfolio in this and have had it for a few months. Its a covered call ETF and set to be the top actively managed ETF due to the influx of people jumping on this. My rough understanding is this etf invests primarily in top 100 companies across all sectors. " Every stock in the fund is capped at 2%, while sectors are capped at 17.5%." Correct me if Im wrong but this would be a good play for a downward market, a side ways market, and a slow moving upward market. The only downside is gains are capped if the stocks rise too quickly. It pays a monthly dividend and the yield is about 11% due to option premiums and individual stock dividends. That is my rudimentary understanding of it. The reason I ask is I am wanting to significantly increase my exposure as high as 25% or even more but want to do some more due diligence first. Here is one of the articles that I quoted above. Someone convince me this is the wrong play and there is a serious risk to this type of investment. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/jp-morgan-jepi-soars-set-223000668.html
  3. Sponsors not liking that 4th foul on timme. This gonna be a blow out now.
  4. I'm seeing texas -3.5 to -4.5 for Sunday.
  5. Arrest warrant for Miller already on its way in Tuscaloosa.
  6. 71-66 Line was Texas -5 and o/u 137 Fucking voodoo
  7. Drake pissing this game away. They can't beat the press.
  8. I have no idea what is happening or how the market will react. Bad news is good news until it isn't good news anymore is where I'm at currently. I actually bought a smalish position in jepi recently. Covered call etf. Works well in sideways markets and is a nice hedge in down markets from what I can gather provided you hold it long enough. Not great in bull markets. Money market is now my dominant position in my personal vanguard account and about 70% of my 401k is still in the stock market. Large cap fund I believe.
  9. For a thread that had absolutely 0 reason to be started these first 8 posts fucking deliver. Well done surly.
  10. Do it but use another agency to stage your house and when your realtor asks why, tell them it's for putting you in an awkward position. Then fire her and report back to us.
  11. Less than 1 per day.
  12. 87 in 5 years doesn't seem too bad.
  13. I'm not a conspiracy theorist but if the government was ever wanting to cook the numbers or shop at Aldi this time for their basket of goods, now is the time. I'll say it comes in light at 5.9.
  14. So looking at the mess in terms of stocks, the fed rate and inflation, is the outcome now going to be a rising stock market, 3-4% inflation and a fed who chooses to lower the rate to avoid a banking crisis?
  15. I like our region. Its winnable.
  16. How many sneezes in a row does it take before you know its allergies and not just a random sneeze? Where you know you are eventually getting a claritin. You all should think about this next time you sneeze. For me, anything more than 2 in a row. Its strange but sneezing twice in succession doesnt water my eyes or make me think allergies, but if I hit 3 in a row, I can notice a real difference.
  17. When I think of perfect songs, I think of songs that wrote themselves. That would have eventually been written because they had to be. They arent necessarily my personal favorites but they are songs that will always stay with you, that are unique and flow perfectly from beginning to end.
  18. I hate clicking on this thread now. It makes me sick to my stomach.
  19. Of course but we were hours away from much bigger problems and were on like calling our 6th tree guy. No one else was answering. I was amazed the tree had not fallen over. There would be a slight breeze and the tree would teeter on its edge. The base formed about a 45 degree angle with the ground. It was a sight.
  20. One of are larger back yard trees was uprooted sunday after the most recent storm system and was about a foot away from falling onto oir fence. I called a tree guy and he came by the house yesterday and said he could cut the tree down and haul it off for $200 but he didn't have all the tools needed to haul.it away. I told my wife to pay him half now to cut it down and then half to haul it when he comes back. She thought that wasn't the right thing to do so she gave him 160 yesterday and now he isn't answering our calls to come get the tree.
  21. We reached what I would consider our minimum retirement amount this month. I physically feel the relief. I now find myself thinking about going part time almost daily. I'm trying to slug through another 9-10 months to hit a couple more milestones but its weighing on me pretty good. I started looking at wfh part time positions as well. I will say it's harder than I thought to pull the trigger and go part time though. A lot of financial security to give up. Oh well. I'm thinking in terms of months not years now. Already started working on my video game with my brother and best friend a few months ago too so my brain knows it's time and I feel like I can start these new ventures where beforehand I felt like they were too much to even think about. Almost there.
  22. Nothing like f1 tornado winds on a random Wednesday. Par for the course in amarillo.
  23. I bet there would be less mass murders though
