The usual attack from someone behind a keyboard. AFAIK no-one has access to Trump's medical records. Whether I am right or wrong is not the same as calling me a liar. I despise Trump because he has no integrity or honesty. He's a sexual predator, boasting about cheating contractors as good business. Trump is scum. So are quite a few of his supporters.

Not a fortune, but I have done well. You really shouldn't try sarcasm, you do it so badly.

Perhaps you would like to enlighten us with what you think the laptop contained. IME most of the lying scrotes seem to come from the right-hand side of politics.

Move aside Warren Buffett, we have a new investing guru.

Have you ever given thought to the fact motorized carts are contributing to the American obesity epidemic? The bone spurs were fictitious, to get Trump out of being drafted to fight in Vietnam. I can't mock a disability that never existed. The title of the thread is " Donald Trump is a coward". QED.

Well, I guess the drones, missiles, artillery shells and bombs the two sides are exchanging just didn't get your memo.

The average golf course involves a walk of about 8 km. I very much doubt a person with real bone spurs would be able to do that.

Add it to the hundreds of others.

US gold prices are irrelevant to me. I buy gold in Australia and Thailand.

I am suggesting people who have got their pension, and subsequently buy property in Thailand, won't necessarily report the purchase to Centrelink. Centrelink won't know, the Thai authorities won't be telling them. As I have not had 30% of my pension go missing, I can only assume you are spouting the same tired old BS which has been discredited multiple times. Cash is king for a reason. Who do you know that is dumb enough to report any cash they are holding to Centrelink? Now go away and work yourself into a proper tizz.

Not while there is one MAGA to obsess about it.

There will be value in shares that have never missed a dividend.

The gold bear market last century was due to three factors - decreasing inflation, a strong US dollar, and relatively stable economic conditions. None of which apply now. I did buy gold in that period, as I thought it was undervalued. Sat on it for 5 years, sold at a profit that was equivalent to 10% per year.

The child-like belief of MAGA's that Trump can defy gravity.

Because governments keep printing more money to service the interest rate on their debt. All the gold ever mined would fill three Olympic swimming pools. Miners used to throw out tailings less than 10 g/tonne. now they treat down to 1 g/tonne. Supply and demand. Were you asleep in economics class?

Answering your own posts, are you OK?

In the USA.

I have never lost money buying and selling gold. Maybe that makes me smarter than your 135 IQ. Or is it 137 -143?

Bought eggs lately?

Two residences, two cars, two scooters. I save more of my pension than I spend. Impossible in Australia, I would be paying 70 -80% of my pension in rent alone. I recently was in a government hospital with bacterial pneumonia. 90 minutes from Emergency Department to a hospital bed, with an IV antibiotic in my arm. In any Australian government hospital, the transition would have taken me 5-6 hours. It's also worth noting private hospitals in Thailand have Emergency Departments. Private hospitals in Australia do not.

Trump won't care if he is dealing with Ukraine or Russia for the minerals. Any security assurances he offers Ukraine are worthless. Not that any have seen the light of day thus far.

IIRC Putin has signed into law first strike capability for Russia's nuclear arsenal. Who has attempted to invade Russia since the Nazis? IMO Putin would be far better advised to be looking eastwards. Russia ( or should I say Putin ) was making a motza out of selling oil and gas to Europe. Nobody wanted to upset that balance except Putin, who crapped in his own nest by invading Ukraine - again. You are spouting Russian propaganda.

The Fed is not going to cut interest rates. It will probably raise them in response to the inflation crisis that is going to be occurring with tariffs, and deportation of cheap labor. There are very few people who invest in the share market that do not understand low interest rates are an incentive to buy shares, as dividends get better than bank interest rates. Conversely, when dividends are less than bank interest, it is safer to be cashed-up, and stay out of the stockmarket. Of course, the situation is much worse when investors are hoping for capital growth, rather than dividend income. Which is why Tesla shares tank if there is a downturn in sales. The ancient Greeks said Hubris is always followed by Nemesis. Strap yourselves in. Buy gold.

Attacking the poster is the sign of someone with no other argument. The objective should be to bleed Russia until it is no longer capable of aggression. Preferably with regime change. How many American and EU lives have been lost in Ukraine? The Ukrainians are doing all the work for you.

America has 80 km of high speed rail. SF to LA is about 600 km. Perhaps you should ask the Chinese to build it for you. 48,000 km in China, they would not even break a sweat. Maybe you should have put a sarcasm alert with your post.
