  1. Yet none of them will let you take money out without reducing what you would have had if you did not take anything out. The article claimed that had Trump invested his money in an S & P index fund 35 years ago, his net worth would be some multiple of what his actual net worth is now. Which is ridiculous, because it does not account for all the money he has spent on his lavish lifestyle. Why do you keep pretending you don't understand that? I pay as little as I legally can in taxes, and I do not blame anyone else that does the same. Biden & the left wants me to pay even more. Amazing no one on the left seems to get a whit that at least one of the Bidens is a tax cheat.
  2. Saw "Pee Nak 4", Thai horror-comedy today, it had its moments. Theater was pretty full of teenagers, and they seemed to love it, as did my wife.
  3. Is 800k increased by 600% not 5.6 million?
  4. I always try to buy a new car in the second year on a new platform. All the bugs are out, usually a few nicer touches and they have not started cheaping it out. Car still looks pretty new for years. With EV, how long do the platforms actually last?
  5. It could also be that people were taking advantage. Tourism is people with a little dough coming for a couple weeks and going home. As Thais become more affluent, expats that spend little money are less desirable, and immigration/tourist programs should be designed such that they primarily benefit the citizens of the host county, not the people visiting.
  6. It was easier when I was working, but since I retired five or six years ago, living in Thailand does not really seem to be getting any more difficult to me. A day a year to apply for a visa and a half-day to pick it up. I don't know what advantages Cambodia might have over Thailand that would interest me.
  7. People with no money should stay home.
  8. Yeah, he was just another greedy capitalist desecrating the environment for profit, now he's a hero.
  9. I have been enjoying "The Chosen", which really surprised me. It starts a little slow, but I think it's cute. Kind of reminds me of a '60s type programs.
  10. I thought this was hilarious: "...with concerns mounting over the potential for unprecedented politicization of intelligence agencies."
  11. Not a Nissan fan. I haven't heard the bet, much less picked a side, why do you assume I'd lose?
  12. So, what is the bet? I'm in
  13. Is the registration not "complete" until you get your tags and turn in your red plates?
  14. Yes, I made up the part about you guys being smarter than me, and I guessed that you guys (being leftists) want more taxes. Wasn't it you that wanted to means test for social security? I did not make up the part about Biden wanting to tax unrealized capital gains, and posted a link that supported it earlier today in the thread, but here it is again: Joe Biden's billionaire tax is dead on arrival (cnbc.com)
  15. Prove what? that I'm clearly not as smart as you guys or that is President Biden has his way, unrealized capital gains will be taxed or that you guys love that Biden wants to tax unrealized capital gains? Okay, I take it back that I am not as smart as you guys.
  16. Clearly not as smart as all of you guys. So, if all of your money is in an index fund, how do you get money to live on, without selling or taking the dividends? And if President Biden has his way, unrealized capital gains will be taxed. I bet you guys all love that.
  17. Liz Cheney is RINO that the left tries to hold up as a conservative. Yeah, you and Fanny
