  1. I'm still amazed when my flight takes off. So I'm easily impressed. ;D
  2. I watched the ISS fly by the night of the launch. You could actually see the capsule trailing the station as it was preparing to dock. Pretty cool to see. I have watched a number of launches off the coast and watched the rockets coming down to land. It is really awesome to see. It was my first time watching a lanuch and my heart was racing the whole time. What a beautiful sight and incredible accomplishment.
  3. Inside the $2.5 Trillion Debt Binge That has taken S&P 500 Titans including Boeing and AT&T From Blue Chips To Near Junk In the boom years before the pandemic, the Fed encouraged S&P 500 titans to binge on trillions in debt, now the central bank is propping them up to avoid an economic catastrophe. https://www.forbes.com/sites/antoinegara/2020/05/21/inside-the-25-trillion-debt-binge-that-has-taken-sp-500-titans-including-boeing-and-att-from-blue-chips-to-near-junk/#55ddb8247a1f

  7. SoftBank’s second Vision Fund hangs in the balance after the first one posted a record $18 billion loss https://www.cnbc.com/2020/05/22/softbanks-vision-fund-ii-in-jeopardy.html Japanese tech giant SoftBank announced the $108 billion Vision Fund 2 last July. The idea is that it would compliment the first $100 billion Vision Fund, which was announced in 2017. Vision Fund 1 reported huge losses on Monday after SoftBank wrote down the valuations of companies like Uber and WeWork by billions.

  9. You need to update your signature with your updated holdings :)
  10. Will miss your RE knowledge here. Please update us from time to time. We love bargain hunting! Best of luck with the new job!
  11. You guys dislike the office that much? I worked at investment management firm and commuted into a downtown office. It was great. I hated working from home. The small laptop even with extra monitor was still not enough screen real estate. Everything is slower too when I had to go through Citrix. Distractions everywhere. It was agonizing. Even on the weekend, I rather drive 30-45 minutes to get to the office than to do extra work on my laptop. I was in 20s and early 30s when I was working there so maybe I'll feel differently once I'm married or become older. I think the future is more of a hybrid style, more WFH days per week but not all WFH forever.

  18. What kind of company is this? NVE is a leader in the practical commercialization of spintronics, a nanotechnology that relies on electron spin rather than electron charge to acquire, store and transmit information. The company manufactures high-performance spintronic products including sensors and couplers. What, what?
  19. Who's a buyer of BRK shares on Monday?
  20. It's a bit early right now but with higher unemployment, it will be a great time to upgrade the talent without breaking the bank. Every team and company has dead weight.
