  • Dividends over day jobs

    Fun conversation. I wanted to hear about the guy who saw his traditional IRA get smoked by tariff announcements, then watch it bounce back when the president decided to pause the strategy. But then announced some tariff target, crushing guy’s position, but then reversing that, also.

    Is that the sort of future you prefer as long term investor? What wrong with taking big return on a daily basis, independent of the daily whim of political actors?

  • Started Good, but Should Have Ended

    I’ve listened to this podcast from its beginnings.

Some of those have been interesting discussions (long/short Jim C. was fun), but it’s long ceased to be generally useful.

    The hosts’ recent crypto obsession has me noping-out and finally unsubscribing. There are much better financial podcast out there (some ev... more
