Real Jazz and SJF! I am one Tatermoog post away from a heart attack. GO AK!

Burke is a modern day Maurice Cheeks.

Neither party wants a flat tax and neither party wants any meaningful tax reform. The tax code is not designed to be fair or designed to raise the "correct amount" of revenues to fund government activity. The tax code is a psychological weapon used by the parties to work people up into an...

She is doing you a favor. Run for the hills. You must get a lawyer to minimize the financial impact on yourself going forward and to try to get as much time with the kids as possible. You made a huge mistake marrying her and having kids with her, now you must cut your losses quickly and as...

Drafting Deron Williams over Chris Paul.

No.

Staying together for the kids is not happily married. It is a choice to live a fraud for the benefit of children. It is a noble calling and may even be the right thing to do, but by the time the kids are in high school you are not fooling them. Any 15 year old could describe their parents...

It only takes one person out of the two to bail. 50% of marriages end in divorce, in other words, they are willing to pay a significant price to be out of the marriage. The over 50 crowd now has the fastest growing divorce rate. Based on my experience I would guess that 50% of existing marriages...

That is a pretty good method. Most women are pretty transparent and easily figured out in that time span. There will be exceptions, but generally there will be enough red flags in those situations.

If God came down from the heavens and gave all married couples a "mulligan", over 80% of marriages would be over by noon tomorrow.

Here is what I would tell you and what I challenge everybody I come across that is interested in investing. Read Graham's "The Intelligent Investor." It has no equal. Than read Edwin Lefevre's "Reminiscenses of a Stock Operator." This is the single best book on how markets work. Than go to...

Let me clarify. You have to educate yourself on the language of investing and more importantly, how markets work. The first is relatively easy for the motivated individual. The second requires a significant dedication and study, but the resources are out there either in some classic...

No. I meant "easy" value techniques.

Yep, or some variation thereof. There are some current exceptions employing quant methods, most notably James Simons, but for the most part, value investing is the holy grail, especially if you can apply it in the small cap arena and add a bit of momentum.

This happens every cycle. New folks latch on to the IBD methodology and think they have found the holy grail. Odds are your friend will get crushed in the next significant down market. The CANSLIM methodology takes tremendous discipline, especially in down markets.

The chance of you beating the market over an investing lifetime is close to zero. How to beat the market is fairly easy and most of the techniques involved in beating the market were known prior to 1950 or 1960. Effectively executing the techniques is extremely difficult. The list of investors...

It is called Momentum Investing. In general, what goes up tends to keep going up until it doesn't. What goes down tends to go down until it doesn't. There is general academic support of the existence of stock price momentum. It tends to work pretty well in up markets, but is a very difficult...

This will be the year of revenge for TuffTiger.

Gun Control is a ridiculous debate. We should just stop making bullets or better yet, not let children under a certain age gather in large groups. Maybe only 3 kids at a time surrounding the ice cream truck. Perhaps we should pass a law that all kids should be home schooled which would...
