So true! Choosing between politicians is always a choice between the worst society has to offer. That's not new. But let's look at the silver lining - at least we get to choice. When it comes to some other countries (cough...Russia) there is no choice given.

No need to worry, I am sure they will have it fixed soon! 😆

I am a big fan of Brazil nuts! 😛 Oh wait, that's not what you meant...sorry, my bad! 🤭

I am shocked to hear that Brigadier Bone Spurs believes the laws and rules do not apply to him. Shocked, shocked, I tell you! 😜

We all know threesomes can be hard to control! 😋

I've always struggled more with East to West. Just my personal experience.

Insiders have been selling the stock - that is usually a bad sign. Some have sold a quarter or more of their holdings, as they are able. https://www.investing.com/news/company-news/trump-media-ceo-nunes-sells-over-630k-in-company-stock-93CH-3585825

It's okay. You don't have to visit. I will take care of corrupting those handsome young men all by myself! It's a burden, but I shoulder it well!! 😋😋

I see. Of course Al Jazeera and The Times of India is famous for their western propaganda. 🙄

Talk about desperate - have you seen Putin sweat this past week? Running around the country, trying to raise support. It is a shame so many people have been killed to prove what we already knew...the Russian war machine is made of paper. It turns out the big red Russian bear has no claws. Their tanks have thin armor, their rockets only strike on target 33% of the time, their troops carry paintball padding as body armor and their much hailed stealth fighter is less stealthy than an F/A 18 Hornet that dates from the previous millennium. Ukraine has been kicking their butts with previous generation equipment...just think what current generation NATO equipment would do to them. It makes one wonder if their nukes are even a real threat... which is probably why everyone is ignoring all those "red line" threats and the red line keeps getting pushed.

Sure, there is crime. But there is crime everywhere. I compared Cape Town with a similar sized city in the USA, Memphis TN, Baltimore MD and found the crime rate comparable. Like most cities, there see neighborhoods you should avoid and some local knowledge will bring down the risk of being impacted by crime significantly.

I am broadening my thinking and reconsidering if I should look beyond my planned 2nd home in Asia. Frankly, I really enjoyed my time in Cape Town, South Africa. Tax laws are fairly friendly and property is relatively cheap while the dollar is strong. Watching some YouTube videos about how it works and experience from those who have done so at the moment.

In case you missed it... Still a good idea to get vaccinated if you are not. https://www.bangkokpost.com/thailand/general/2849873/experts-warn-mpox-poses-serious-threat-to-thailand

I am surprised the long tailed boats aren't required to carry lights in dark conditions. During a recent visit to Pennsylvania-Dutch country I notices that even the horse and buggies the Amish use are requires to carry lights and reflectors when using public roads.

I hope this is true. Please let this be true! 😆😆

Well, that is how I got through university, so who am I to judge? 😉

A little narrow minded, don't you think?

Then there was this...

I know everyone is talking about Yusuf Dikec... but my question is: when is John Wick taking his turn?? 😋

Donald Trump confirmed he WILL debate Kamala Harris. In other news, Donald Trump confirmed he WILL be honest during the debate. 😆

That is a little extreme - were they drug dealers?? 🤭

Thank you! Interesting that they are looking for GMAT scores too - I thought that once I had a masters they would no longer care about those since these scores were a requirement for a masters enrollment.

That is true - I know a number of poor finance professoes. But I think you will appreciate that my masters capstone project focused on the economics of the tea trade! It didn't make me financially rich but certainly enriched my understanding and appreciation! 😉

I have no interest in a legal degree - I am looking at a doctorate in finance to build on my masters in finance and economics.
