Charlie Munger dead at 99.
save the frogs replied to Thailand J's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
A lot of crooks hide their misdeeds by either literally giving a lot of money away or having their PR team convince the public they are philanthropists when they're not. And as my response to jimtripper points out, I'm inclined to think Buffet and Munger and their ilk are a bunch of crooks just based on the idiotic "buy and hold" mantra they peddle on people, which is not a good strategy for the markets as there are massive crashes. So if you get ill-gotten gains and give some of it away, does that make you a good person or what? Trick question. -

It's deliberate bad advice. It's done on purpose because they are con artists scamming people. The advice they give the average person is designed to screw people out of their money so they can get richer. -

actually, there is no easy answer to that. seems rather crass to horde and horde and horde while so many people struggle, but i guess it comes down to personal choice what you do with your money. elon musk manufactures cars. peter jackson directed lord of the rings, a massive undertaking and genius project. they make things that people consume and enhance people's lives. I have little respect for people who do nothing but trade in stocks. -

try worshipping people who contribute something to society. not people who horde vast amounts of wealth that they bamboozled from suckers. -

I'm sure they are. 99 per cent of them are probably complete BS. but when he tell you the truth, he doesn't hold back the punches. here he is admitting that investing in the stock market is a major scam. and he is a fund manager admitting this. do you see how comical all this is? or you just don't get it? it's like the Pope admitting that 95% of catholic churches are a scam. -

wow, look at that chart. it keeps going up and up and up and up. why do people worship someone who "claims" to be worth 100 billion dollars? does no one think crass obscene materialism is a problem when there is so much inequality and poverty out there? should people get filthy rich not actually contributing anything to society, but playing with graphs on a computer all day?

Belgian man found dead at house in Chiang Mai, murder suspected
save the frogs replied to webfact's topic in Chiang Mai News
quite a few AN posters believe in faeries, so maybe some folks on here have collected his figurines. -
People think Youtube is a joke. There are silly cat videos on Youtube, but also serious stuff. It runs the whole gamut and is not to be dismissed as a complete joke. I think he has a medical degree. Still doesn't mean he's right, though. But he is quoting a study, not just stating an opinion.

Do you believe in God and why
save the frogs replied to ivor bigun's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Ok, Avatar continued ... https://ladygeekgirl.wordpress.com/2014/11/16/oh-my-pop-culture-religion-avatar-eywa-and-faith/ The Na’vi are governed by Eywa ... the Na’vi don’t believe that Eywa is real so much as they know she’s real. Eywa is a biological presence on their world that they and the animals can literally talk to and hold whole conversations with. We discover that Eywa is a system of plants covering the planet and that she can connect to every animal and person through neuro-conductive antennae. And indeed, the natives and all the creatures have tail-like growths coming out of their own heads that they can use to literally plug themselves into Eywa and talk to her. Avatar doesn’t tell us to respect nature because that’s the right thing to do. It tells us to respect nature because nature is a living entity governing us. -
Exactly! Now you're talkin' my LINGO. If you want someone to LIKE you, Just PAY them to Like you. That's why bargirls are THE BEST.

How does Bali compare to Pattaya or Phuket
save the frogs replied to georgegeorgia's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
what's wrong with people surfing? are you jealous because you're too fat to surf? what's next? we should start hating people who part their hair the middle? -
Yeah, I'm annoying. How sad does your life have to be to go on other forums to point that out? As though I'm the cause of all of your misery. There's people on there holding grudges after being banned over 10 years ago, wishing the mods ill will. What kind of stupid hateful low IQ garbage did they post to get themselves banned?

The film Avatar might be based on some sort of religion. The blue folks live in nature, commune with nature, are at one with nature, believe nature is sacred. -
Maybe carbs are useful for quick energy for workouts. Otherwise, protein is used to rebuild muscle. But it takes whatever time it takes to absorb. As muscle-building is a complex process and I'm not convinced all foods need to be absorbed instantaneously.

Just telling people not to murder doesn't seem to work. Moses tried that already. Do unto others .. Jesus tried that. Doesn't always work too well. There have been religions that respect nature ... nobody knows about them because the current mainstream religions have taken up all the attention. Wicca, Paganism, shamanism, Taoism, Native Indians ... worship nature. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nature_worship#:~:text=Nature worship is often considered,theism and paganism including Wicca. -
is taking hours to absorb a bad thing? what do you need to be doing that food needs to be absorbed instantaneously?
-
than food? you sure? food is more "complete". it has taurine plus a bunch of other stuff. maybe it's impossible to know how to tweak the body with powders, so complete foods are safer.

yeah but that's my point. they come on here like vultures getting free advice and then go around badmouthing the site. go get lost if you think the mods are a bunch of aholes. and go get free health and visa advice somewhere else. what was justified exactly? when I have time, I'll go on there and re-post some of the stuff there. it seems like mostly people abusing their online anonymity with over the top nasty comments, from what i can tell.
