  1. Football Manager and Out of the Park Baseball for me. Used to play Hearts of Iron 2 and Crusader Kings 2.
  2. What, no mention how he's under investigation for insider trading? or the shady way Gotham Partners ended? I'm probably just jealous. Who knows, maybe Bill is just ahead of his time (like Copernicus!) and in the future everyone will be able to front run hostile takeovers.... http://www.reuters.com/article/2015/11/12/us-valeant-pharms-ackman-insidertrading-idUSKCN0T02EN20151112 "Plaintiffs must plead defendants knew they were in possession of material nonpublic information at the time of the trade and that they acted with the intent to deceive, manipulate, or defraud," Carter wrote. "Plaintiffs have alleged both elements."
  3. My cheapo HDHP through my employer is going up 75% from 2015 to 2016. Average for the entire company is ~30%. Ridiculous.
  4. Ditto. Pretty much all in 401k and HSAs that I've put in stable value funds/cash. Will be rolling them over by the end of the year
  5. http://www.wsj.com/articles/theranos-has-struggled-with-blood-tests-1444881901 Whoops!
  6. He's also got taken to the woodshed this year, in full disclosure. Down 16.6% in July alone.
  7. No luck. Only thing I am able to pull is for them is in the 60s. can you post an pdf of the document? Please? Geico_-_1968.pdf

  9. Think and grow rich has a chapter devoted to it.
  10. http://www.madfientist.com/traditional-ira-vs-roth-ira/ For those shooting for early retirement...
  11. Great video. Thanks for posting. I had the opportunity to visit Normandy last month, and just came away staggered at what the invading forces accomplished. How anyone made it off Omaha Beach is mind-blowing. Whenever the d-day anniversary came around prior to visiting, I thought I had an appreciation for what occurred. But visiting there certainly changes someone and it's a place everyone should get the chance to visit.
  12. I'm usually not big on the macro stories, but this one is pretty solid: http://csinvesting.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/The-Pampas-precedent-Woodford-Funds.pdf
  13. Looking forward to it, should be a great match!
  14. Bingo. Plenty of fish in the sea, and I'm sure they'd want your business.
  15. Didn't Michael Burry buy a bunch of almond farms?
  16. Every recession there's ever been. The first thing that airlines do is cut capacity. http://www.wsj.com/articles/SB124027676645937525
  17. The one thing that's interesting to me coming from an aviation background is the talk of an aircraft bubble forming with narrow-body aircraft. You get any type of recession/oil shock and suddenly airlines are dumping aircraft in the desert, no longer performing C and D checks, and maybe scrapping planes for parts. Just my 30,000 ft view. I've followed TDG, watched most of the presentations/investor days, but too big a pond for me to fish in.
  18. Twentieth KO in a row for Golovkin. Had 2 knockdowns in the 2nd almost a 3rd, but took until the 6th for the TKO. Only lost one round. He's the guy people should be watching instead of Floyd. 33-0 30 KOs
  19. I think it was the great philosopher Charlie Schulz that said: happiness is a warm puppy. Though Lennon's happiness is a warm gun, might apply as well. :o
  20. I'd like to see Golovkin-Mayweather. My guess is Floyd ducks him just like he did the pacman in his prime. But Golovkin has said he's willing to drop weight to fight him.
  21. This. Floyd is just too quick. Going to have to do something against the grain to throw Floyd off, you fight him straight up it's over.
  22. It's really the smaller companies and more obscure pieces of information that are difficult. If a system is able to pull original source data digitally I'd trust it the most. The problem is sometimes humans do need to get involved. I know of one company in this industry that outsources a lot of the work to Asia. Seems to cut down on costs. There is also a system in place that pulls filings off sedar/edgar/etc. that gets formatted by hand once and is set up to be done automatically after the original.
  23. It looks like the only one in that period is the 1994 report. Berkshire_-_1994.pdf
