His dad was a republican but Buffet will say what he has to to protect his wealth. There are lots of examples. Tucker did a segment on this before the election. Very few rich people have courage or morals in fact. But if you look at the US history it was rich but courageous people like"

"@joecarlsonshow Holding a lot of cash. I only sell if the business prospects have severely deteriorated or if the stock is overvalued and I dont see much future growth. In that case you are better off taking a 15% capital gains hit to invest elsewhere. I keep it simple"

"Agreed. I have said many times investing in $AMD with the expectation that that they will be a big player in AI is wishful thinking. Its not attractive at these price levels even the CEO and business is pretty good. Intel sinking also helps $AMD but this is priced in at this point"

"The American people are behind DOGE. However we should make sure we should put controls in place that this never happens again. Term limits stock trading ban criminal charges against bad actors and financial controls followed by transparency are good ideas. Although that comes later we cant forget that step. Good job so far"

"$UPS is a great stock for those looking for a roughly 50% gain in the next 3-5 years while also paying a 5% dividend. They are currently at a [--] year average P/E of [-----] and a P/S of P/S. Besides the obvious reason to invest which is that its a duopoly with FedEx and the barrier to entry due to huge investments in infrastructure I like their recent decision to end their deal with Prime due to profitability concerns. Their cash flow numbers are way better this year showing good management stewardship"

"Personally $UBER has a real moat. I bought it a few years ago in the low $30s. I am already sitting on a double gain but I am riding it into the sunset 😀 or down. With $GOOG theres a lot of risk around CEO capabilities anti trust ruling AI making search obsolete and the competition in chat. The wide moat days are long gone. This is a different era"

"Barrons had a great article - "Investing Offers a Free Lunch Says This Wall Street Veteran. Take It". Read it if you have a subscription. Its by George Gatch the CEO of JP Morgan Asset Management. Some interesting assertions and my take on it. [--]. Time in market is more important than timing markets. Absolutely true. Most gains are made in about [--] days a year and you cannot predict those days. Best to stay invested instead of moving in and out. [--]. He says the free lunch in investing is diversification. "We can hedge those things that we can see but we use diversification to protect us against"

"@laralogan For those interested there is a Tucker interview with Putin that goes over a lot of this. For what I can recall the thing that animated Putin the most was that he felt Ukraine was part of Russia and in many ways he was waging a war against Nazis. He also brought up NATO"

"I haven't. I have an MBA. My Dad retired as a chief accountant and built his fortune in real estate. I learnt investing from my dad (at 10) and from Buffet (went to Creighton). All I am saying is that it is not as easy as Dave Ramsey makes it out to be. They may need to teach financial literacy in school and most adults should need to start saving as kids. By the way if Dave Ramsey was really successful most Americans would have a decent retirement saved but they don't"
