My investment approach is about as exciting as watching paint dry, But it works. Its simple, Its easy. Buy passive index ETFs, Buy Dividend Kings for dividends, reinvest dividends. Dollar cost average. amzn.to/3C986xa

@TyMastersonKS That “ceasefire” worked for day, 3 ships passed. Normal flow is a hundred ships. This war was started without any planning for what would happen.

For 47 years, politicians looked the other way while Iran destabilized the region and threatened the world. Not President Trump. He’s once again poised to do the impossible. He forced a ceasefire that begins opening the Strait of Hormuz and puts real pressure on Iran to come to the table. That’s good for America, our allies, and the world. Peace through strength.

@Mr_Husky1 Very unreasonable and cheap. If you can’t afford to tip, stay home.

The Husky@Mr_Husky1·
We went out to dinner with a group of five, and by the end of the night the bill was right around $577 and change. When it came time to pay, we left a $60 tip because we felt like that was a fair amount and wanted to leave something extra for the service. What I didn’t expect was the server making a comment that she was expecting closer to $120. And no, it didn’t come across like some light little joke either. The tone felt serious, the moment got awkward fast, and suddenly we were standing there feeling uncomfortable over a tip we had already chosen to leave in the first place. When we pushed back and mentioned possibly talking to a manager, that’s when the story suddenly changed to “I was just kidding.” But let’s be real — not every rude comment magically becomes a joke just because someone gets called out on it. The whole thing left us feeling weird and honestly kind of embarrassed, because we weren’t trying to short anybody. We tipped what we thought was reasonable, and being confronted like that completely changed the vibe of the night. So now I’m curious — was $60 on a $577 bill really that unreasonable, or would most people also think asking for $120 was way out of line?🙄🙄 By Martha Barker

After allowing a handful of ships to pass through the Strait of Hormuz on Wednesday, Iran said it closed the strait, accusing Israel of violating the ceasefire by launching a major attack on Lebanon, Iran's Far News agency reported. abcnews.link/dw5RVFI

@ndmichelle @ABC Trump twice impeached, convicted felon. I can go on. Obama, graduated near top of his class, editor of Harvard Law Review, respected around the world. I can go, but the comparisons will only further embarrass you.

@ABC Iran now playing a game like the one they played with Obama. Obama fell for it big time with pouring hundreds billions to Iran, but I hope Trump would not. Trump is much smarter than Obama.

A 12% service charge instead of tipping. It goes to the staff, but does this feel better or worse than leaving a tip yourself?

@starks2765 @UziCryptoo Not necessarily. Income tax pays for state and federal government, sales tax and property taxes more used at the local levels. As a citizen I think good locals schools and paved roads are needed.

Just paid the property tax on the 10 acres I own FREE & CLEAR and I can't describe the amount of rage I feel inside. Property tax should end when you own the land. Period.

@mwhite1961 @UziCryptoo If you paid a capital gains tax on a personal residence then you had a substantial gain, because there is a capital gain exclusion for personal residences.

@UziCryptoo After paying sales tax for a house we bought, making payments for 13 years with money that had already been taxed, plus 13 years of property tax, we paid $31K capital gains tax when we sold it. I feel violated.

Just watched some of Trump’s address regarding Iran. Sounds like we won. Iran is decimated. All you panicans should be ashamed of ourselves. Trump always, always has a plan. Gas prices will be going down very soon. Dow 50,000 incoming my friends! 🇺🇸

@MatrixMysteries One of my sons earned a PhD in philosophy without a dime of debt. Scholarships, fellowships, graduate teaching assistant & part-time jobs. Now making a ton of money as a data analyst. Philosophy is great for teaching positions if you can find an opening or law school. Or write.

“I spent $250,000 on a philosophy degree and I can’t find ANY work.” Years in class. Six figures in debt. ZERO payoff. She didn’t fail the system — the system sold her a LIE.

The root of this entire Democrat shutdown is a demand to reopen the border and to protect criminal illegal aliens.   Democrats prioritize murderous illegal aliens over American citizens. Look at their actions, their words, and their votes.

@ronrule @desslocktx Not everyone has a birth certificate in their current name. Think marriage. Divorce, remarriage. Not everyone has the money for a passport. This voter suppression. Nothing more.

@desslocktx If you’re moving in state they would already have your info to re-register in your new location. If you’re moving out of state move, you re-register and prove you’re you. Not seeing a problem here.

Do people actually think they need to bring passports & marriage certificates to vote? You’re already registered. If the name & address on your ID matches your current voter registration, there’s nothing else to do. The docs are only required to register. Democrats are spreading fear and misinformation as usual.
