How do you describe luck? Are you lucky?
gamb00ler replied to Quentin Zen's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
I find it odd that you label your regular practice as.... luck -

Are you influenced by non-experts? If so, why?

I think this blunder by Einstein ranks as second worst after his creation of the cosmological constant to produce a stationary universe. -

Trump's crackdown on LA protests is pure hypocrisy

I was going to hit the 👎🏼 twenty times on your post but the wife interrupted me to fix the internet on her computer and then I forgot. Thanks for reminding me. -

You conveniently overlook the fact that California's climate is pretty much ideal for those lacking reliable shelter. The climate is a magnet drawing from most other places. Homelessness in AK doesn't happen. The awesome climate also makes the RE prices high which is correctly beyond any governmental control. Maybe Trump, when he's officially the dictator can set the prices. -
LOL... in the very same article that reported Russia's casualties, CNN also reported Ukraine's. If you did read that article, you probably blew a gasket and had to stop early.

When you rank the states in the union, CA has at least two categories where it is ranked #1. The most well known category is in GDP where Cali just surpassed the GDP of Japan to become the 4th largest in the world. The other category will upset the MAGAns...... so you'll have to find out for yourself. -
Some Thai banks do ask the purpose and even sometimes documentation to support your reason. I would just say it's for investment purposes. Last year, my friend used BBL for many transfers back to US but never had so show the funds were previously brought in. One time he said it was to pay for family to visit and the bank wanted documentation of travel. He subsequently used a different purpose (I don't know which) to keep it simple.

If that were true... it would mean the illegals are so much smarter than the nutjob MAGAns observing polling stations. -

Greater than 40 million active military during WW2 .. an order of magnitude greater.

And if during the invention of calculus Newton made a negregious error, what serious reduction of the safety and security of that era's general population would occur? LOL your desperation is leading to some very hilarious analogy attempts Maybe Newton didn't get it right until the fifth iteration. The HS guy doesn't get to take risk free attempts at getting things right. Get to your computer right now and buy a new thinking cap!

when you want privacy, just put your phone in a wire mesh box... I guess a solid metal box or tinfoil works also.

When budgets have significant funds set aside for the various pet projects of the supporting politicians, it is traditionally called pork-filled. -

Are you familiar with 401K???? This post shows strong evidence you only have a hint of how they work. The 401K holder almost always has a choice of where the funds are invested. If they chose the stock market they should have been aware of the risks associated with that choice. I do agree that Trump is destroying America's reputation and a large part of the economy. However the investors should be paying attention and avoiding the markets if they aren't comfortable with the fluctuations and risks. -

I can't make sense of this statement. The US Treasury sells Treasury bills to the SS trust funds. The Treasury issues SS benefit payments to the retirees, disabled, spouses, survivors, etc. Each time the Treasury makes those payments it is essentially repaying the SS trust funds dollar for dollar at full face value. The SS trust fund is mandated to buy the Treasury bills with excess funds that are not needed immediately. The US President (even Trump) doesn't have authority over the SSA. It is an independent agency since 1994. -

Because you failed to understand how the bankruptcy saved Trump piles of money, which reduced the overhead of the casino. After the bankruptcy it is much easier for the casino to make a profit. Trump's mismanagement had to be followed by a bankruptcy to fix Trump's screwups. Trump made money by avoiding paying for his previous mistakes. It may be correct to state that the pre-bankruptcy losses (that others suffered) would total more than the profit subsequently made. -

I reread the @spidermike007 post that contained the quote and link. In that post the Spiderman was not out of his lane... He only quoted the wine publication and then provided the link. Personally, I view wine production/consumption as strictly a luxury so I worry much less about that business niche than those dealing in necessities.
