My FIL told me he had a CD that was rolling out that he had for 15%. I almost shit my pants. 15%???!!!! Obviously he got in at the top in the 80s. But holy balls. That's incredible. He told me he didn't think he could get 15% return on his farm, which I have no idea if it is true, but getting something locked in here on at a high rate isn't the dumbest diversification. |

Elon is a headcase.
I'd say it's schizophrenia but he's too old for that. |

I think just stocks or real estate would be better for the kids 10 years down the road. If you had I series bonds from the 80s still you're probably collecting 20%+ on govt backed bonds that aren't liable to state taxes and can defer fed taxes and keep compounding until maturity. That would be reason for a happy dance lol |

This market is slowly bleeding down.
September is traditionally a bad month for stocks. Anyone trying to bottom feed? Anyone about to throw in the towel? How are you investing any new cash? |

I'm getting ready to get long with a bunch of long term call options. So many beaten into the ground stocks.
Yes, I know they can get cheaper but things are getting really valuable. |

I got a job offer that's going to pay me more than I've ever made in my life (I'm a few years from 40 so I guess it's about time) I figure I'll have about 10-15k I want to invest my first year. Is that a good amount? Where should I begin?
