  1. Plenty of photos here collected by abyli. Empty supply bins for masks, gloves and eye goggles. https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/r0MgCEtpYRocZECSPcpDXA I also have photos of dead bodies on the ground in the hospital for hours with no one taking care of. They are covered by white cloth so I can tell they are already dead. While at the same time, I have a photo of the Provincial Governor on TV saying that they have plenty of supply and there is nothing to worry about! I hope your relatives will be okay. I'm a fob myself and have plenty of relatives there but in Guangdong. People outside of China don't know, but you can't really trust anything there. Stay safe people!
  2. I used margin as downpayment for my last investment property. Margin is a powerful tool but can be dangerous if used improperly.
  3. Any decent house in the Bay sells itself. My brother just closed on a house. The listing wasn't even active yet. He saw it on Zillow as coming soon, contacted the listing agent directly, and made the deal before the house hit the market... They are sure they don't want to keep it as a rental instead? Depending how much they owe, the cash flow can be substantial even after hiring a property manager.
  4. If only they were. I cannot sell or buy ASFI anymore even though I just hold 100 shares worth $1000 .. Admittedly I had a larger position in the past but even then I wasn’t close to owning 1% which would be 65k shares - a position worth a few hundred k and three weeks of trading volume .. A bunch of CoBF people have previously tried to persuade me that IB is the best thing since the sliced bread. Now I'm gonna gloat and say "I told you so". 8) No, I'm gonna say: "Sorry you guys are having these issues". :'( The margin rates are too good to move away from. I only know how to buy and sell equities. I haven't even explored 99.9% of the tools being offered.
  5. Warren Buffett reportedly passed on buying Tiffany despite Berkshire’s mountain of cash https://www.cnbc.com/2020/01/02/warren-buffett-reportedly-passed-on-buying-tiffany-as-berkshire-sits-on-a-mountain-of-cash.html
  6. If you have access to home charging, get an EV. Bolt, Tesla, etc.
  7. Looks beautiful. I really need to get out to that part of the country more. Too trapped in my bay area bubble!
  8. Big Short’s Michael Burry Reveals His Picks of Undervalued Japanese Companies https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2019-09-05/burry-s-picks-of-undervalued-japanese-companies-rise-in-tokyo?srnd=premium-asia
  9. Why can't you use both Schwab bank and some other internet bank? Use Schwab for checking and regular expenses and internet bank with higher interest rate for savings/emergency fund.
  10. How much are we talking about there? Is FMV like 200k or 1 million? You might offer to do a 2nd appraisal or just go with another bank/mortgage company and then do redo the process and try your luck...
  11. Dodge & Cox Bruce Fund But I don't really know...
  12. Picked up some MSG too this AM at~$271. I am not sure what caused the sudden downdraft , but noticed that MSGN is doing even worse, is this team related? I added MSGN in two slugs this am at 19.5 and 19.2, adding to my existing position. Knicks whiff on free agents is why they’re down. Dolan looks like an even bigger idiots after his February boasting. Fans are pissed. Hopefully this puts Jim over the edge and he sells the Knicks. Why MSG over MSGN or vice versa?
  13. It doesn't feel like exuberance of the late 1990s or mid 2000s. It seems like to me people are cautious high valuations, crazy IPOs, trade, and governments.
  14. I have trouble sometimes separating myself from disliking someone because they're good and dislike someone for a valid reason. I've always disliked Curry because of how he carries himself on the court and the way he struts. But.....maybe that's just how he stays loose, in kind of a relaxed focus way. He's in the moment during the play but when the whistle stops the play he loosens up and relaxes. Klay is all business all the time, whistle or no whistle he's ready. One thing this series taught me is how much I do like and respect Curry and Klay and I must have only disliked them because they're good. Draymond is still a dick though. That won't ever change. Haha. He's our d*. 8)
  15. I was surprised by Cardboards comment. From my years of following him, he seems like a nice guy, good teammate, and a family guy. Maybe he can be a bit cocky at times but I feel all stars have a bit of that. Anyways let’s celebrate Raptors!. Cheers!
  16. Good game Warriors. Great win by the Raptors. Happy for them.
  17. #WeTheNorth Glad the Raptors finally broke through to the Finals. But I'm a Dubs fan. Go Warriors!
  18. Doesn't need to be local. I'm not from the us and simply found a US library that allows (free) signup which allows online signup. Did this years ago to read Morningstar. Yes, that's true! Plenty of options available. And besides, most of us can afford a subscription or 2 to our favorite publications...
