re: Can Trump really win?
Posted by Skippy1013 on 5/11/24 at 5:49 pm
No, he will not be allowed to win. The FBI, CIA, NSA or others will not allow it. They can rig it at any time they need to. Whomever the Dems replace Joe with at the convention will unfortunately be our next President....
re: Can cities ever actually fix their housing shortage?
Posted by Skippy1013 on 5/10/24 at 2:55 pm
People who own houses now want higher property values and fight to keep anything that may affect their increasing values.
People who don’t own houses now complain like a disgruntled school teacher that there is no affordable housing and that there is a shortage.
No different than the rich want...

re: Can anyone tell me how Nelson Peltz is an 'activist'?

You should research what an "Activist Investor" is before you make a fool out of yourself by starting a thread like this. A quick Google search would have been so easy!...
re: MSY arriving passenger pickup.
Posted by Skippy1013 on 4/5/24 at 12:29 pm
It's disappointing. They build a brand new airport, with a blank piece of paper, and could have done it so right, but they did it wrong. The pickup area is a cluster, almost as bad as the old airport.
All they had to do was extend it another 50 yards, but no, they did not. The good news is that t...

re: Help in killing Dallis Grass but not St. Augustine
Posted by Skippy1013 on 3/28/24 at 9:02 pm
Use Round Up in a pump sprayer and give it a direct shot with the tip of the wand pushed down on the center of the weed and give it a quick shot.
The weed will die, but not the surrounding grass. After a few days, the weed will be very easy to pull up. Throw a little dirt or sand on the spot and ...
re: Too soon to fertilize?
Posted by Skippy1013 on 3/20/24 at 11:46 am
Tax day, 4/15 is the ideal time to shoot for because the chance for cold fronts is slim. However, doing it now is ok, it may just not work as fast until it the soil gets a little warmer....
re: Stunning French country estate for sale in Beaumont, Texas outside Houston for just $800K
Posted by Skippy1013 on 3/16/24 at 1:10 pm
It’s nice looking, but…
It looks old, meaning it was probably once in a very nice part of town. Is that part of town still nice?
Just over 4000 sf. That’s not really very big.
The price may be just the right amount....
re: White Lotus on HBO Max
Posted by Skippy1013 on 3/14/24 at 5:28 pm
She is exactly the actress needed for that part. Think about it…
She does a great job based on the many quirks of the character. Fine, don’t like the way she looks, but let’s be honest, there are many ugly characters in movies and TV shows, just like in life. Do you never come across ugly or fat ...
White Lotus on HBO Max
Posted by Skippy1013 on 3/12/24 at 9:27 pm
Started Season 1, seems pretty good. Interesting cast, especially Sydney Sweeney!! Got so much going on with the various lives and situations of the groups staying at the hotel, as well as the hotel employees. ...

While on this question, is Round Up the same product as it was years ago, meaning a Glyphosate product? To me, it does not seem to work as well as it used to. Have the various lawsuits affected its composition?...
re: At Fault Driver refuses to cooperate with Insurance Co.
Posted by Skippy1013 on 3/12/24 at 12:18 pm
The insurance “Policy Conditions” require a customer to cooperate with their insurance company for coverage to become applicable. However, Louisiana is a “Direct Action” state, meaning the insurance company is liable just as the customer, sometimes referred to as “standing in the shoes” of their cus...
re: Is Modern Portfolio Theory Dead?

Another one that appears to give less downside risk and has slightly beaten the S&P 500 is 80% SCHD (a top performing dividend/value ETF) and 20% QQQ....
re: Is Modern Portfolio Theory Dead?
Posted by Skippy1013 on 3/2/24 at 9:18 am
If you simply want something that blows away a mixed portfolio and the S&P 500 and you are “young”, just go 95% QQQ (100 Companies) and 5% Money Market. Practically nothing will beat that, but you have to be able to stomach 40% losses every 15 years or so....
