    housing prices here are rising, boats are selling fast and high, airplane prices are up. You can’t even find a gun or ammo to buy, but that may not be due to the economy. Everyone i know who owns a business is having a good year. And forget about hiring anyone to work on your house unless you can wait a few months.

    Im still waiting to see how things pan out after the election. I don’t need to add wealth at this stage, I just want to preserve it.

    Now I will stop using this thread as my personal diary of accountability on this transaction. I’m sure I will have other questions about Vanguard, but I’ll start a separate thread for them.
    At this rate you should have all your money duly sorted by about the time you die...

    More of the same damn drama, lies, crookedness and laws eliminated to protect the environment and workers rights. Nothing good.

    Today's news shows what a liar he is. I honestly don't see how anyone can vote for him.

    It will take years to repair the damage he's done in four years to the environment, government bureaus like the FBI, CDC, and USPS, international trust and respect, worker's rights and social justice, voter's rights, the judiciary, etc. He's a scourge, but I suppose if you're a corporate grifter or a billionaire, he's your scourge and you're OK with it.

    Received an email today from a guy I know in Germany. His remark is that Europeans fear trump more than the coronavirus.

    The coronavirus is much more manageable than a sociopath. Except in a country run by a sociopath, apparently.
