Look at the right lower corner.
wow!
that really came out in a strange format.
my son-in-law sent me this
$400
A 74-year-old man is having a drink in Harpoon Harry’s. Suddenly a gorgeous girl enters and sits down a few seats away. The girl is so attractive that he just can’t take his eyes off her. After a short while, the girl notices him staring, and approaches him.
Before the man has time to apologize, the girl looks him deep in the eyes and says to him in a sultry tone: “I’ll do anything you’d like. Anything you can imagine in your wildest dreams, it doesn’t matter how extreme or unusual it is, I’m game. I want $400, and there’s another condition.”
Completely stunned by the sudden turn of events, the man asks her what her condition is. “You have to tell me what you want me to do in just three words.
The man takes a moment to consider the offer from the beautiful woman. He whips out his wallet and puts $400 dollars into her hand.
He then looks her square in the eyes, and says slowly and clearly: “Paint my house.”
Our needs change as we get older, and we tend to look for bargains.

Vaccine protest
And their targeting healthy children next.
The story’s go on past these few.
* – “My son’s classmate lost her mother from heart complications due to the vaccine.”
* – “my grandmother in law passed from J&J. Blood clot to her heart in less than 24 hours after getting it.”
* – “My sister (VERY liberal and pro-vax!) is disabled now after her Moderna vaccine, and symptoms are worsening by the day. She may not survive.”?
* – “yes like my neighbor Larry Ray. His life has been altered terribly and now he wishes he never took the vaccine.”
* – “I’m one of those. I’m 44 and went into cardiac arrest and died 2 times less than 2 weeks after getting the shot….ironic???? Coincendal? Hmmmm.”
* – “I know someone who had a heart attack after the first dose, & isn’t getting the second. I also know someone who died from the vaccine… let’s tell THOSE stories!”
* – “A friend of a parent went into cardiac arrest almost immediately after receiving second dose. They were unable to revive her.”
* – “I also know of someone who lost a limb due to a blood clot/circulation issue after being fully vaccinated.”
* – “I know someone who was FULLY Vaccinated and always wore their mask; they were recently in ICU and passed away.”
* – “My uncle suffered a stroke due to blood clots and complications days after his second chot. Would you please do a story about all these reactions?
* – I know of three people who have been hospitalized since April-ish. All 3 were fully vaccinated.

Re Energy
Those increases are like back in the ’70’s, they will turbo charge inflation, just like in the ’70’s.
The vast majority have no idea as utility prices don’t move that often and many are fixed….all hell will break out when they get passed on !!!!!
Amazon Boosts Hourly Pay To $18 To Hire 125,000 Workers To Sell Foreign Made Products
Whats the big deal? For 40 hours its $720/week. That means you can afford $720/month mortgage, or $720 monthly rent. Or was it the weekly take home pay to cover one month?
CHICAGO, Sept 2 (Reuters) – Walmart Inc’s (WMT.N) move on Thursday to give 565,000 of its U.S. store workers raises of at least $1 puts the spotlight on the industry’s tight, competitive labor market as the all-important holiday shopping season is set to kick off.
“When Walmart touts its average pay at $16.40 an hour, it distracts from the reality that its business model still relies on poverty wages,” said Cynthia Murray, 65, a 20-year Walmart worker from Laurel, Maryland, and a member of labor group United for Respect.
Comment:
Do any of you remember me saying long ago that if the Gov’t won’t raise the entry level wage to something logical, that at LEAST they need to encourage people to get OUT of the workforce if they are well off and don’t really need to work anymore. And or give tax incentives to those people to leave?
Well the COVID thing is doing the trick. Also note, in the past, when the Fed and Gov’t was afraid of inflation they would raise interest rates to slow inflation. Well this COVID thing did the same thing as high interest rates.
Also note, the Dow SnP and real estate have been flying like Silver and Gold during the entire 1970s. When the Fed raised rates to stop the speculation, and the dumping of Dollars for inflation hedges, the collapse in prices of antiques collectibles gold and Silver etc was a HUGE CONTRACTION of people and gov’t money supply, like a big sponge mop. Enabling them to continue printing.
So don’t be surprised if the Dow, SnP and Real Estate start dropping, like AU and AG in the ’70s, and create another HUGE CONTRACTION of people and gov’t money supply, into “money Heaven” like a big sponge mop of excess wealth. Much of it undeclared income savings. Enabling them to continue printing.
Every news media who secretly took Trudeau’s $61M pre-election pay-off money…..EXPOSED!!
Worth 13 minutes to watch Canada’s corrupt PM get caught at his dirty game….and this is only the very tip of the iceberg of corruption Canada has suffered at the hands of this arrogant asshole….IMO!
@Buygold re $2100 Gold
You’re right, it should be a lot higher. But it was high for a controlled price. I figure the original $140/oz times 20 is $2800 in todays money, for the old manipulated $140/oz. But even $2800 is cheap figuring a small apartment is $2300/mo, and a blown transmission can go past $2800.
Mr. Copper
Yes, I do think the dollar needs to go down some more. Unfortunately it’s the cleanest shirt in a filthy fiat index, so I’m not sure when that happens. Not sure I agree that $2100 was ahead of where it should be. I think without the constant Banksters manipulation it would be much higher than that. I feel like gold should be upwards of $5k.
The shares, measured by the HUI are ridiculously cheap but continue to stay cheap or go lower.
I don’t know. ?
@Buygold re palladium got quite a bit ahead of itself.
Right, so did Gold, near $2100/oz last August 2020, 13 months now in this boring correction. PGMs and copper peaked mid 2021. The dopey/dollar was lower too. Maybe that’s the bottom line? We need a lower dollar again? Some day it might get very abruptly lower if the high national debt laxative kicks in.

I was looking at a lot of other sectors before, and so far, under “Software” sub sectors Application Software and Systems Software, looks good but related to Dow SnP boring boom etc
Mr. Copper
That’s a good strategy and seems to have worked well for you.
The one thing I may have learned is that the mining shares should be traded and in my experience haven’t been good long term holds. Maybe that will change in the future but I don’t know.
Just seems to me that palladium got quite a bit ahead of itself.
@Buygold re Lower Palladium and Platinum and South Africa
I agree South Africa is an inferior place to invest. So only use some Vegas money, not bulk money. Usually I start with a small bet, and if it goes up I double the shares, and if I see 5-10% again, ill double the shares again, and if it starts looking bad I sell out all.
The only explanation I can think of re falling PGM prices, is falling car sales? Less PGMs needed for the stupidly expensive unneeded PGM “muffler”. My car mechanic friend shoed me one that was always $400 and now $2700.
Re SBSW they were originally Gold miner, but good thing is they absorbed Stillwater mining PGM in the USA, Montana I think. Lots of wild cards we’re dealing with. Imo this whole global economy is in “transitory” mode LOL.

That doesn’t portend well for the winter time! Gonna be some pissed off people in the EU … pissed off and cold.
Europe is now seeing just how mad Climate Change policies are
My electric bill has doubled this year, but that was from a low base price and it does not reflect yet what has been happening recently. Nat Gas wholesale prices have gone from 30 pence/therm to 130 pence/therm and electric prices have gone from 50p /Kwatt hr in 2020 to over 350, up 7 times …..These prices have yet to hit domestic bills and as this article says…it is mostly down to no wind for the Wind Farms….the ‘effing Mellons have ‘effed it all up again.

Mr. Copper
Thanks for the tip on IMPUY. Seems like they are highly profitable. The big risk of course is South Africa.
A 12% dividend is worth taking a little risk I think.
Interesting to me that palladium has gone down from $3k to $2k so maybe some of that money will come into platinum, gold and silver.
We’ll see.
Au just rallied $ 20
but the scum are making sure the PM shares do diddly squat…..
