One of life's incredible coincidences, I was just talking about this subject a few hours ago, with someone who knows. One of the reasons for the timing of this visit was to catch up with my old roommate, a very successful webcam model. Her normal everyday appearance is girl next door cute. She'll turn some heads, but she won't stop traffic. Just some basic makeup and the right lighting and camera angles easily bumps her up a point. Occasionally, for special shows, she'll hire professionals to do hair and make-up, add 2 more points. So a 6 becomes a 7, becomes a 9 for a few hours and in the morning she's a 6 again.
Another subject we talked about was a recent topic: insecurity. This is someone who not only hears how beautiful she is hundreds of times each week, guys throw a lot of money at her. Yet she agrees that now matter how beautiful a woman is, when she looks in the mirror she sees flaws.

5/10 and 9/10 are completely different leagues, and a 5 will never become a 9, period. I'm tired to repeat the same stuff all over again. Feel free to not use the 1-10 scale if you feel like it is useless.

Pro "tip": And if you only had a 50 there is nothing wrong with asking for change!

Posts: 574Club Luna ground rules?
Went to Luna Lunera with a few ISGers. First guy took a girl in, asked him after he said it was 250 k and what included. Was itching for my turn but with different girl, no we weren't tunnel buddies albeit the option was very well there.
Paid the house staff for the session and took her upstairs.
It was a great session, then finished in room she wanted a propina. This caught me off guard first guy didn't mention that part. All I had was a 50 k note. Sure it didn't break my bank but did catch me off guard, not sure if it's mandatory or she marked me as a gringo.
(For those keeping score, two other ISGers did their civic duty instead of taking her upstairs at club rates got her personal WhatsApp to meet her outside of club hours / rates).

A better way to have put it was that I was just as dumb as Fauci and so were you and everyone else here, and that is not narcissistic; that is fact.
The problem with Democratic douches like yourself is that you pay off and deify someone with the title of "scientist", and we are supposed to follow everything that person says and damn the data or in this case, pretend there was data.
What played out is that Trump listened to Xi in China said "he is my friend" and believed him when Xi said Covid was contained. Josh Rogin of the Washington Post said this on Joe Rogan's show and Joe Rogan groaned and so did I. I had little doubt that this happened as it sounded just like something Trump would do.
And your being a Democratic douche, V, I expect you to believe that too. What you will not believe is that Fauci pretty much did the same thing. He sent one guy to China and crafted policy based on what China was doing and what they told his guy.
You douches seem to recall my saying the virus would kill 80,000. What you forget was that was based on the curve of the initial variant. When that trend was broken, I concluded way before anyone else that the virus had changed. Back then, your douche paper of record the NYT was breathlessly pointing out all the countries which handled Covid better than the USA. I said of those countries "just you wait, they will get hit too", and they were. In fact, China's policy of lockdowns is blowing up in their face just as it did in Colombia.
Even now even with the evidence that the only thing severe lockdowns do is create riots you Democratic douches all would have us go into lockdowns if Covid surged again. Hell, with you douches, lockdowns were not the greatest health policy debacle ever. No, they would have worked if Republicans (and Colombians) had been more compliant.
Of course, the data says otherwise, and my articles were data reliant. It is no wonder you were intimidated by them. You had no answer for them but arrogance.
And your douchery shows its ways with investing as well. It is Democratic douches like yourself who make the claim, "everyone knows you are undereducated. " That is as delusional a statement as one can make. First, do you have any data showing education levels equals better market performance? Of course not. Peter Lynch said that investing is more about the stomach than the brain, and I agree with that.
And despite the fact that I have said why I made 2500% in one stock is irrelevant to our current discussion, you dismiss it out of hand. Why? You have no data to say otherwise. You just do not want to believe it.
And finally, the people on ISG who have met me would very much dispute the education level comment not that it means anything outside of showing you are a douche who think your education level somehow means you are more likely to be correct about something. It is irrelevant to investing as all that matters with investing once again is data.
Speaking of irrational, a friend showed me his newsletter and was disappointed when I suggest he throw it in the trash. All the 2022 picks were in the red, and he gave an overly rosy S&P 500 prediction. My friend knows logistics and was certain companies he bought in the field were going up. After the market went sky high after the Fed press conference, a total nothingburger IMO, he called me up and said I told you so.
Maybe you have learned something V because you did not take the occasion to beat your chest. I agree with your prediction on interest rates and more importantly so do those who buy and sell Fed fund futures, however, you did what you always do and ignored the huge elephant or in this case bear in the room, the inverted yield curve. The traders and investors on CNBC's Fast Money are not as blind as you. They had on an economist who pointed out how the yield curve inversion and a few other markers always point to recession. There was then a healthy debate on which to listen to the sunny stock market or gloomy bond market and of some market tailwinds but no one dismissed the bond market and the overwhelming response for those invested dare I say consensus was to take profits in stocks, keep your powder dry, and listen to the bond market. In fact, all the Fast Money traders heard the same old nothing new message from the Fed as I did.
And I suspect you already know what my response would have been had you beaten your chest. Yes, I bought SQQQ at $45 and am looking to add more at $40. If we have another market decline I will unload some and look to buy more on the cheap. And when we hit the inevitable recession, I will unload it for good. That is my market strategy. And when the recession hits and the market hits its inevitable decline, then I will look at fixed income vehicle like REITs. It is not the right time for REITs. Stocks hit their bottom when the Fed finishes raising rates.
So you are not totally wrong V. You are just early and just as I saw all the investments the newsletter picked out in 2022, I know your investments went down too. If you were not short and had more than one stock like Dollar General, you were down. Still, if you had a brain, you would look at this Fed induced rally to take some profits on your REITs and look to get back into them at a later time. Maybe even (Gasp) go short for a change.
And enough with this quality shit. Microsoft is a quality company and they pulled out of real estate and selling items in Microsoft stores. The whole notion than that you REITs have quality companies paying rents is ludicrous then. The real issue is not the company's quality but how dependent they are on having a physical location. The pandemic changed that metric for many businesses.
And no doubt if you applied your quality model to airlines, you would have put your nose up at Spirit. It is at $21.25 a share and has a shareholder accepted offer of $33.50 per share from Jet Blue. If the deal is blocked for antitrust reasons, JetBlue will pay Spirit a $70 million reverse breakup fee and will pay Spirit's shareholders $400 million. So the airline that is the worst quality wise has the greatest room to advance in the near term. Stocks are either over, fairly, or undervalued and the market may give a higher multiple for "quality" but that is all that it means.

In this hypothetical scenario she would already need to be plugged in and knowing all the right people and proper amounts that don't set anyone accidentally on fire or make one slip and fall on a knife several times.

I could never or want to imagine an America where the predominant form of personal travel is public transportation. The convenience of the personal automobile is something I don't mind working a extra few hours for, I think most Americans would agree as well.
