I don't know enough about this to make bold statements but with paypal and other similar money transfer services pulling privileges on big social media sites like gab does that inflate the "bit-coin" market?...

I remember you saying that you were going to sell. I should have followed your lead. I kept thinking, "meh, I'm getting the dividend and the stock price doesn't affect that". Well, now I'm not getting a dividend and I think I'm down 60 percent. That stings.

It's not worth a whole thread, but I found this fact interesting and very surprising:

China is a big market for [BMW], which sold more cars there last year than it did in the United States and Germany combined.

I obviously have as much influence as JP Morgan. GE sat between 12-15 forever. It goes to 11.60 so I throw 1K at it and now it's at 9.60.

It is actually right about 8.50 right now. I may make that jump here shortly once it drops some more.

Tossing around the option of a whole life policy as supplemental savings. I know that most people say buy term and invest the difference but the Long term care rider and tax avoidance when withdrawing later in life is appealing. Im 50 years old. and after 17 years the thing pays the premiums from the dividend, you stop paying into it, still get the 500K death benefit plus cash value at that point is around 290K.

This would be a supplement to a 401 K that I've built up over the past 25 years.

Thoughts?

Add this or keep contributing to 401K (some balanced funds and bonds as well as international stocks) and a online trading accounts (US stocks mostly tech and younger companies). but then be vulnerable to market shifts and taxes down the road.

Just do your research on the company. I have a term policy through Genworth which was a highly rated company. They got butt****ed by their LTC policies and don’t do shit with life anymore and all the features that would be nice are out the window.

Typically you can do better in mutual funds but it’s not a terrible tool.

Congratulations. This thread drew me into the Etrade hobby early in the year. I've invested only "extra" money like FFB winnings, dividends from other investments(bioD etc)....

So far, I'm only down about $750 on the year on whims I obtained by reading here.....GE looked like a good idea because it was down and I'd had reason to believe some industry relevant things were going to pay off for them....US steel, Silica and some other things when I thought the oil boom and Steel Tariffs were going to pay off.....

I'm learning though, and I cashed out a couple of shitters and took a shot at a couple of hemp stocks.

someday, I'll cash out a roll.
