Well what can I say folks. The more faith I put into 3x Long Leveraged S&P 500 the more it pays off. I will most certainly be quitting my job soon.

That’s cute. Good he has confidence. My grandson didn’t make a very good impression on first day of kindergarten with his teacher. Guess at snack time she didn’t know who’s lunch box was who’s so when she asked my grandson about one he said yeah that’s mine and ate the sweets in it vs his healthy foods before she figured it out. Now my daughter blaming me for giving the kids sweets.

Good he was watching but like tornados you can’t tell where it’s gonna go. We seen the news projecting the models and how many times did they change it? With that distance he had time to get out though if it changed.

Yep it’s a mess. Looks like Key West got the worst of it so far. Boats everywhere thrashed or under water. Houses thrashed or totaled and thrown off the foundations. They can’t even search for people yet. So tell me why news can get in there but not search teams. Hopefully all got out. Florida’s area got hit by a tornado on top of it. It defiantly would of caused thousands of deaths and injuries if people hadn’t sheltered. Son in law hasn’t heard anything from Aunts and other relatives in Tampa, they got out too.
PS Another reason to get out, rescue if needed dragging their feet. Maybe assuming all are out.

I’m sure a lot of people are counting their blessings today. Lots of damage but nothing like was forecast. Thank God!
What’s as bad as watching a hurricane in TV
Having to watch Shepard hosting it.
Why stocks will not go down much or for long for the rest of ours lives.
A booming stock market is required for our entire economy to work. 10% of the Federal Budget each year comes from capital gains taxes alone. There’s more than twice as much wealth concentrated in the stock market (30 trillion) than in home equity (14 trillion). Every Pension, 401k, IRA, 529, and Index fund is depenedant on rising stock prices. That’s why it’s rigged to go up no matter the weather or the politics or the economy.

Glad Florida is okay. Hope Alex is too. This hurricane collectively seems to have flooded whole state from one degree or another. The hype in that half the state would be devistated by media has displaced a lot of people. Then comes the next and people won’t believe them. The good thing is talking shelter with that wind, debris, fallen trees and flooding most likely saved a whole lot of lives.
Thanks Richard and Mike
For letting us know they are alright. I believe they were in a county which has entrance of the ocean from the area that was flooded and would have been hard for emergency to get to them and no power. Prayers to both of them and hope they can keep fighting. I’d send them a pizza ” all else fails around ya order pizza” but don’t know where there at or what they like. What the heck ya know.
Love you Wanka be strong
thanks for letting us know Mike
Talked to Floridagold
No major damage to his place north of Daytona Beach. Lots of limbs down but he didn’t get flooded. No power.

Thank you for the Wanka update. He remains in my daily prayers.
Richard640
Glad to hear that Wanka has escaped the storm. My prayers are with him and his family.
I got this e-mail from Wankas nephew
Richard,
I’m having trouble posting on the Oasis forum but I know several members have been asking about Wanka. He and my Aunt did evacuate safely and are currently at a shelter in North Miami. I believe his home in Key Haven was spared the brunt of the storm and I really don’t know of wind damages or water issues at this point. Unfortunately Uncle John is not doing well as most members are aware from his lack of posting. He continues to fight the COPD as well as other issues. At this point it really has become a true fight. Hopefully he can pull thru this whole ordeal as he has in the past but sadly it doesn’t look so good this time. Please update the Oasis family and ask they keep Uncle John and my Aunt Noemi in their thoughts. Thanks. MIKE

No I don’t own either of those. Congrats to the Richmont holders.
Why won’t Gary Cohen go quietly?
On any given day in the Trump administration, it’s nearly impossible to tell who’s up and who’s down. But the longer term trends are clear. For months there were rumors about the imminent demise of the dynamic trio of Reince Priebus, Steve Bannon, and Sean Spicer, and for a long time, despite the rumors, nothing happened. But then the Mooch happened, with an apparent mandate to get rid of the nationalist wing of the White House and, in kamikaze fashion, he was able to accomplish the mission along with his own self-immolation. When you start hearing in the media you’ve pissed off Donald Trump, that is probably a leading indication that a bullet with your name on it is in his chamber.
That, I dare say, is precisely the position that my old friend Gary Cohn now finds himself inhabiting. He is in Trump purgatory. Two weeks after he called out the president in the Financial Times for his ill-considered remarks in the aftermath of Charlottesville, Cohn has not yet been fired. Quite the contrary, in fact. He is acting as if his days in the White House aren’t numbered. In a nifty bit of shadowboxing, Cohn seems to be actively engaged in working with Congress to draft a tax bill designed to lower tax rates and give another windfall to the top 1 percent.
ipso facto @ 8:52 re Alamos Gold Announces Acquisition of Richmont Mines
Do you own any AGI? I do. I wish they would give share holders advance notice when they decide to buy out another company. AGI was one of my favorites. Very annoying to see it drop 14%.

Eldorado Gold Announces Amended Investment Plans in Greece
VANCOUVER, Sept. 11, 2017 /CNW/ – Eldorado Gold Corporation (“Eldorado” or the “Company”) today announces plans to suspend investment at its operating mines, development projects and exploration assets in Greece.
Despite repeated attempts by Eldorado and its Greek subsidiary, Hellas Gold, to engage constructively with the Greek government, the Ministry of Energy and Environment (the “Ministry”) and other government agencies, delays continue in issuing routine permits and licences for the construction and development of the Skouries and Olympias projects in Halkidiki, northern Greece. These permitting delays have negatively impacted Eldorado’s project schedules and costs, ultimately hindering the Company’s ability to effectively advance development and operation of these assets.
With the exception of a care and maintenance program and necessary environmental safeguarding costs, Eldorado and its Board of Directors have decided that under present conditions no additional investment will be made into the Kassandra Mines (Olympias, Skouries, Stratoni) in Halkidiki, the Perama Hill and Sapes projects in Thrace, and any exploration activity in the country. Funds that were budgeted to be invested into community spending and infrastructure development will be phased out. Similarly, tax revenues at the municipal, regional and national levels will also be affected.
