Last vehicles i bought, I sold the 2 that they replaced outright instead of trading for an additional 8k about dealer offer. Used that money as part of the payment of a 2 bedroom rental property
I understand that I do things way different than the average person.

Critics of Trump economic policy should take a peek at this.
The economy is just getting stronger, not weaker, and 'we in the economics profession need to look ourselves in the mirror,' top analyst says

Please be so kind to let us know how Boomers are responsible for all of your problems. I look forward to your most eloquent and respectful response.
If you are speaking of the dinosaurs that are in Congress, I agree with you 100 percent. Our country badly needs younger leadership (that are not Socialist / Communist).

I thought a legal case could be fully litigated but not
Make it through the appeals court to the supreme court.

The part everyone leaves out is what you do with the degree plays into this equation. No one gives you money at graduation. You have to use the knowledge. There are plenty of wealthy liberal arts majors and plenty of struggling doctors.
People forget Anthropology,Foreign languages, Philosophy, Psychology, Sociology, Journalism, Economics, Law, Communications, Architecture, stats, policy analysis and History are liberal arts

When Crypto collapses, it will be interesting to see how the collapse affects the other markets. Will suddenly, stocks and bonds will be a safe haven? Will the dollar will once again overwhelmingly be the world's currency of choice?
An even bigger question, will Trump try to bail out Crypto with American taxpayer dollars due to his family's large stake in Crypto?
Gonna be interesting for sure.

No, everything is great. Look at it.
We are taking the tariff money and giving it to farmers who can't make money because we have tariff's in place, which is being spun as a positive.
This Administration is dismantling the US. Making things worse and then doling out money to help. Hmmm... Sure sounds like what Biden did. As I said, no different. Just different ideology, one left and one right.
I don't believe the two parties will ever agree on ideology it just depends on who you believe when you get your news
