No, I "coudn't"

I think Tobie stated he was taking his talents elsewhere. No doubt it is a message board that is more enlightened.

:):):)

Its been great knowing you Tobie. Best wishes for success in the next talk format you select to impart your wisdom. I know several people who became bored from hearing "grab em" several thousand times. I am just surprised that a proud lefty would admit defeat. But, then again, it is no surprise who you blame.

No doubt the Mexican earthquake was caused by Global Warming

How can you say that? After all, she really "cares".

None of this matters because Trump is a racist white supremacist who hates "dreamers". Not only that, but he refers to another "distinguished world leader" as Rocket man.

At first I was going to say that nobody cares about this one because the name Scott Schultz sounds like just a regular American Caucasian. However, after reading the final two sentences, I am sure that the press will make this to be of major consequences and the University will probably "settle" out of court.

Or a medallion on a 6 foot chain with pants hanging below the buttocks?

Question for PamFam and Nappy: do you believe that government can solve every social problem that comes along? Do you believe that everyone should give all of their possessions and net worth and put them in one big pot and let government dole out what it thinks is appropriate for each individual?

Good credible source.

Filing a lawsuit is one thing. Winning one is quite another.

Please show me where Mr. Trump filed for personal bankruptcy- After you have done that, please make note of the following people who had a bankruptcy in their history. It's a fairly distinguished group: Henry Ford, Walt Disney, Milton Hershey, H.J. Heinz, and ABRAHAM LINCOLN

The market doubling in 8 years is the equivalent of a 9% annualized compounded return. Since the historical average for stocks is around 10%, the last 8 years is slightly less than average.

Nice try westend. Unfortunately for you, there is no BS when uttering facts. What I stated were facts and no one is attempting to fool anybody about anything. Facts are exactly what I stated and another fact is that the Dow Jones Industrial Average set another new high today. If you want to call it fooling someone or call it BS, that's fine but the BS is the FACT that you cannot/will not acknowledge the UNDENIABLE FACTS that began this thread. ( incidentally, most of what was gained during the prior 8 years was simply the recovery of what had been lost during the market decline of 2008. If you want to know what your account really has earned, go back to 95 or 2000 and do the calculations on what the average annual return was. I know you wont do that because it is easier to simply state that Mr. Obama is an economic guru which is quite laughable.

If you have plenty of equity markets exposure, your retirement account has done better in the last 9 months than it has in just about any 9 month period in quite a while.

Maybe that's why Tobie doesn't want to talk about it now. He wants to wait until the cyclical economy turns down and then he can blame Trump and simultaneously tout the virtuous and effective 8 years of the Obama administration, the only administration in recent time to NEVER experience a 3% growth year during their term in power.

Why two years? Why not 1 or 3 or 4 ?

The S&P 500 reached an all time high yesterday for the 32nd time in 2017. The S&P 500® is widely regarded as the best single gauge of large-cap U.S. equities. There is over USD 7.8 trillion benchmarked to the index, with index assets comprising approximately USD 2.2 trillion of this total. The index includes 500 leading companies and captures approximately 80% coverage of available market capitalization.

And the left NEVER met a tax (or a regulation) that it didn't like.

ESPN has obviously staked out their leftist position(s)- probably gonna cost them dearly

Guilty as accused

Tobie, why werent you screaming, yelling, and demanding this 5 or 10 years ago?

Ok, now I understand. Not having the wall built by inauguration week is intolerable?

But that's different because Obama is a great speaker.
