I think shareholders at many successful companies get spoiled by great annual results for a period, and feel a sense of deflation when things aren't still going up double digits every year. The irony with Fairfax is that they are still growing at terrific annual results, but because the stock price has stagnated slightly in the last 8-12 months, the sense of deflation has come swiftly! Even long-term investors are vulnerable to that emotion...no matter how long they've held and what they've been through in the past. It's like eating just the right amount of your favorite food and instead of being satiated the next day, you feel let down that the feeling didn't linger longer. I've seen every shape of shareholder do this and go through this, including with Fairfax. It's just funny to see it happen so quickly after 5 years of massive growth and returns...that are still continuing...but in book value, rather than stock price! Cheers!

Watch it Cubs! His post deserves your scorn, but the "little shit" stuff can go. Blake, you're not posting on investing, and you are telling people how stupid they are, what exactly is your point of being on here? The only person who posts less about investing is Doo...but we know that already and he posts shit without specifically insulting any one person. Please keep the political posts on an issue rather than aimed at any one person. Cheers!

Once again, Jon Stewart lays out how Cubs was so right and Trump and Vance did not fuck up negotiations with Iran after blowing the hell out of them. Art of the Deal, baby...Art of the Deal! Cheers!

He is gone. Cheers!

100%! Ourkid8...you purposely like the author of that post, said "genocide" instead of "ruins". Why is that? Cheers!

Netjets doesn't fly to small towns in BC. Also I would feel ridiculous flying on a Citation jet or slightly smaller all by myself every month or other month...even with a couple of other people it seems like such a waste of resources...money and jet fuel! That's a lot of other luxury trips I could take around the world flying in business class! Plus I'm not at Eff You Money yet...I'm at I Don't Need Your Dumb Ass, So Don't Waste My Time Money! Cheers!

About what you would expect from a Trump friend and donor...literally looks like the profile pick for any Trump "organization"/mafia associate! No bid friend/donor who destroyed the reflecting pool! Cheers! https://www.yahoo.com/news/politics/articles/company-owned-by-trump-donor-won-17-million-no-bid-reflecting-pool-contract-000248757.html

Dealraker, I think you missed the Art of the Deal here...Trump is luring Iran into negotiations with honey...everyone knows Iranian's love honey, especially in their baklava-like desserts! You beat them over the head with missiles, then give them everything they want plus some honey (especially Mamuka), and then WHAMO...you get them to sign over all of their nuclear material! Works every time. Cheers!

Just like his other construction projects: https://www.yahoo.com/news/politics/articles/the-paint-is-already-peeling-in-trumps-renovated-washington-reflecting-pool-205842336.html The Iranian Regime should make sure Trump and his company aren't the contractor for the Iranian $300B reparation rebuild! Cheers!

Will do that next time I'm in Brussels. Was there last October, but didn't have time to go further north. Cheers!

Nah, cut off the shipping of beluga caviar and vodka...the world would crater tomorrow and give Putin $300B plus Melania! Cheers!

Hmmm, Canada handled it pretty well considering they broke one of the key player's leg! Qatar got off lucky considering the mood of the crowd could have gotten rotten after that. Cheers!

That's the most likely and rational solution. Cheers!

No, but I would keep guns in the cabin. My dream as a little kid was to be like the Cartwrights from Bonanza! Huge stone fireplace, horses, a big spread, etc...even a live-in cook named Hop Sing! Cheers!

No, I couldn't afford like a Citation. Really nice twin prop...yup. But then I have to learn to fly...that would be scary! The other option, which I'm leaning to, is to just go live somewhere different for a few months out of each year...get it out of my system. On a nice cabin on a huge piece of land...just a nearby town with necessities and medical...etc. Cheers!
