Guys. I've got good news and bad news. Bad news: I tore my rotator cuff. Good news: You don't need rotator cuffs to do leg day.

We define both ‘couldn’t care less’ and ‘could care less’ as “used to indicate that one is not at all concerned about or interested in something.” We don’t do this to cause you pain. We do it bc one is simply a variant of the other, and they are used in a synonymous manner.
Chelsea@ChelsElaina

One of my biggest pet peeves: People who say “could care less.” If you could care less, you care. *couldn’t care less*

AS I POSTED on X earlier. I stopped buying silver at $60. I stopped buying Bitcoin at $6000. I stopped buying gold at $300. I have sold some Bitcoin and some gold. I hate selling because I hate paying capital gain taxes. Today…. I wait patiently for new bottoms for gold and Bitcoin then I may buy again. Rich Dad Lesson: “Your profit is made when you buy… not when you sell.” I will post on X when I begin to buy again. Until then please remember another Rich Dad lesson: “Pigs get fat… hogs get slaughtered.” The bigger problem is the national debt of the USA. The real debt is $38 trillion and $250 trillion when social security and other Marxist programs such as Medicare are counted. Patience and vigilance and continual study on You Tube may be your smartest money habit today. I will buy more silver at $74 and gold $4,000. I have enough Ethereum for now. Will buy more. The real problem is the Fed, our incompetent leaders, and our criminal banksters who rip us off via our fake dollars. Rough times ahead. Take care.

I love this. I prefer interest rates being set systematically (preferably by an algorithm), but if humans are going to do it then having a market practitioner at the helm is a fantastic change. A market practitioner like Rieder will bring a more "real-time" view to policy and less reliance on purely academic and oftentimes lagging indicators. He will add a more diversified and alternative view to a mostly academic economist Fed Board. I think Powell has done a fine job, but Rieder might actually be an upgrade in my opinion.
*Walter Bloomberg@DeItaone

RICK RIEDER EMERGES AS TOP CONTENDER FOR FED CHAIR BlackRock executive Rick Rieder has surged as a leading candidate to replace Fed Chair Jay Powell, with his odds on Kalshi jumping from 3% to 37%. President Trump is expected to announce his pick soon and is widely seen as favoring a Wall Street–connected candidate. Rieder, BlackRock’s chief investment officer for global fixed income, has deep market experience, including two decades at Lehman Brothers. Meanwhile, former favorite Kevin Hassett has fallen out of favor amid concerns over Fed independence and a Justice Department probe involving Powell. BlackRock declined to comment, and the White House said speculation remains premature.

The 100 Greatest Comedy Movies of All Time: #Elf Will Ferrell’s childlike earnestness in delivering the film’s indelibly daft lines — “You sit on a throne of lies!,” “Son of a nutcracker!” — turned “Elf” into a high-concept classic and cemented its place as a Christmas perennial.

@Kasparov63 The nature of greed and wealth is that almost everyone always wants more. They have a number that they say will make them happy, and then as soon as they get it, it’s not enough.

The secret is out! 😂 Not unique to Russia and United States, alas. The idea that rich people are already rich and so will be less corrupt when in power has been refuted decisively. Not that all rich people are corrupt, of course, but wealth is not an antidote.
Peter Petrides@HappyPete55

@McFaul @Kasparov63 Seems that many rich and powerful individuals are more concerned with money than doing what's best for our country and our people.

I recommend Rob Zombie’s new book, Frankenstein. Not as dark as I expected, but still a real page-turner.

@NickHarrisFWST @SandoNFL I heard it differently. I heard Dak taunted Jalen and asked, “How’s the weather up there, Stretch?” And Jalen said, “It’s raining.” [spit]

Some more context on the Jalen Carter spitgate: According to two people with knowledge of the ordeal, Dak Prescott spit on the ground in the general vicinity of the Eagles defensive huddle. Carter thought it was hostile. While Prescott was explaining it wasn’t, Carter spit back.

Howard Marks has a new memo where he gives 6 options for investors who are nervous about the current market environment I have some thoughts on this and why the 2020s have killed off contrarians and permabears (for now): awealthofcommonsense.com/2025/08/where-…

Re-watched the original Happy Gilmore and it made me even more depressed at how bad the sequel was There needs to be a statute of limitations on this stuff Only Tom Cruise can do decades between sequels (Cocktail 2 anyone?) No one else
