  1. BRKB 200-strike, March 6 expiration puts, $0.92 per share. Edit: If I get put to on these, I would be on margin for the first time in several years.
  2. I really like the 3 Floyd's Robert the Bruce Scottish ale.
  3. Toured their Grand Rapids Brewpub a few years back...would love to make it over to Holland eventually. Grand Rapids is a nice city and home of another great microbrewery, Founders.
  4. That's probably calorie-dense so great for the apocalypse Yep, it is 11% ABV.
  5. Dragon's Milk
  6. I'm a beer drinker and I don't buy it. Not because of the virus, but because it is not very good.
  7. Wrote some more puts, 215-strike, Feb 28-expiration.
  8. Wrote BRKB 225-strike, Feb 28-expiration puts.
  9. I want to bump this. Since I started running a fund, I work mostly from home. This means that I took out 7,000 steps that I normally would get by walking around in NYC. Over the years, this reduction of 7,000 to 10,000 steps translated into 5-10 pounds of weight gain a year. A friend casually told me about intermittent fasting. Just eat in an 8 hour window. It was tough for 2-3 days, but then my body got used to not eating for 16 hours. It didn't matter what I was eating. It did wonders. I no longer get hangry and I started losing a little bit of weight. Then I started to cut out sugar and carbs. In a year, I lost something like 45 pounds without really exercising. Now I actually crave the fasted state where I am more alert. Try it. Just cut out sugar and all that processed food. Intermittent fasting is great. I usually don't eat between 8 pm and noon, about 16 hours of fasting a day for me. I do drink coffee in the morning, which does not interrupt the fasting. When I grew up we didn't eat breakfast, so it is easy for me to go to noon without eating. Breakfast is not the most important meal of the day. That was a very successful advertising campaign to sell cereal.
  10. Don't eat sugar. Sugar causes inflammation all over the body. A bad thing. Your brain will function better today and in old age. You will likely not get type 2 diabetes. You will likely not get type 3 diabetes, Alzheimer's.

  16. Vinod, I am glad you found them useful. I'm working on a new version, which hopefully will be a little better organized and more clearly presented, that I will be taping the end of February. Mike
  17. LC, Are these covered calls? Also if you don't mind saying, on what stocks? Thanks, Boiler
  18. For an introvert, 25-40% of the population, it could be a nightmare.
  19. We've been going to Mayo Clinic for an auditory related issue. FWIW, the audiologist told my wife to absolutely not use ear plugs or noise canceling earphones. My wife used ear plugs because of my snoring! She said our brains need to be constantly hearing these background noises otherwise it will adversely affect our hearing. She said you want to use ear protection only if the noise level is damaging.

  21.

  23. I had never heard of this book. So thanks for resurfacing this thread. It is now on my ever too long list of things to read. I need to retire or I'll never get through all the books on my list!
