Gold bug / silver bug / numismatic / metals thread
I don't carry it with me, but it's taking a lot of space in my deposit box and in between the studs. I want that space for a gun and ammo.

What are you listening to right now?
YouTube music thought I might like Softcult (Canadian shoegazer band), and they are correct. They're coming to LA in February and will go see them if I can find anyone that likes this music.

Gold bug / silver bug / numismatic / metals thread
Closer to 70:1 today. My average purchase price ratio was 55:1. I hear you about not swapping until the ratio drops even more, but the thought of carrying just 3 oz of gold instead of lugging around 240 oz of silver (that I don't intend to keep in the long run*) sounds wonderful. * Keeping my maples, libertads, Fijis and a bag of Franklins.

Stock Picks 2026
META popped 5% overnight when they announced they are getting rid of the Metaverse. Some friends are holding onto TSLA because they think Optimus (robot) will be a game changer.

Stock Picks 2026
I've held onto AAPL, GOOG, AMZN since 2013 and they have not disappointed. At this point, I'm still bullish on AMZN because of AWS which will continue to grow. Plus they are dabbling into healthcare. I consider their existing marketplace like a WMT and not an area of continued growth. AI is not going away so I'm staying put on my small positions on NVDA and TSMC. Good points on META. I'll liquidate my 45 shares and dump it into some AI company or fund.

Wives and the Stupid Shit They Say/Do
My wife will empty a bottle of lotion, use the last bit of toothpaste. Because those pennies saved can go towards a pair of Kate Spade shoes.

Trivial things that please the ever living shit out of you
Drinking left over beer in the office fridge because we need to make room for new beer that's been brought in for our holiday party. It's 4:53 and I'm already 2 bottles in.

Obviously they have not smelled my son's farts. He is truly nasty. OTOH, I don't recall the last time I heard my daughter farted.- Trump’s America
Contractors and architects have a love-hate relationship. In this case, I hope the architect drops dead. And the contractor that is building the damn thing? I hope we are banned from working on anything Federal for the next 20 years until the stench goes away.- Surly #Stonks
Boring buy and hold investor here. I bought the stocks for the kids earlier this year. 1 share each of AAPL, NVDA, AMZN, MSFT. BRK.B, VOO, WMT. VOO is up 13.6% since June. AAPL is up 44.4%. This stock market is nuts, but I'm enjoying the ride while it lasts.- Trump’s America
- The Trump Economy
We fly on China Airlines (actually a Taiwanese carrier) and EVA Air. Flight are just as cramped, but the flight crew in the bourgeois cabins were professional and probably 7s at a minimum.- The Trump Economy

… and there’s probably a vending machine in Japan selling pajamas previously worn by a teenage girl. The ones with piss and cum cost extra.- Official 2025 Holiday Insanity Bitchfest
We had my wife's family over for dinner on T+1 (my side of the family comes on Thursday). I forgot her uncle and aunt both went to A&M for grad school so they were rooting for Aggy. Being 70+ YO Taiwanese immigrants, they didn't care too much about the game, but just stared at me when I proposed a toast after the 'horns won.- Random thoughts that don't warrant a thread
At least he has sunglasses on. That CD would put a nice gash on his face if it flew at him. There's a reason workers on construction sites wear a full face shield when using a chop saw.- Formula 1 2025
Past performance not indicative of future performance aside, Sainz has done pretty well at Abu Dhabi the past 4-5 years while Albon has not. I'm a big fan of Sainz and wish Ferrari had stuck with him, but he seems to be happy at Williams and James Vowles seems like a good team principle hiring good people around him. /teamawesomehair- The Guitar Pron Thread
Been looking at odd shaped guitars lately. Should I throw away $260 on one of these? Firefly FFDB aka cheap Chinese Firebird knockoff https://guitarsgarden.com/collections/fffb/products/new-firefly-ffdb-electric-guitar-sunburst-color-1 There are solid color ones for $199.- Formula 1 2025
