Anyone with a fucking brain can see that was all bullshit. Its not "free market" when we allow their goods to come in for nothing or next to nothing and they are charging tariffs on our exports. And deliberately subsidizing certain commodities to undermine our domestic production. Thats the kind of shit we do when we want to tank foreign economies!

Exactly.....unfortunately there are so many partisan pieces of fuck that it just takes a few talking points and some fear mongering and everyone is against fixing it Edited March 22, 2018 by f7ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There will be a ton of money to be made and lost with these little swings. While I've thought interest rates have been way too low for way too long I think they need to be very careful bumping rates up too quickly. We are struggling with suppliers being able to deliver BIG TIME. Companies are cautious to add workers, can't do it fast enough or can't find them. The economy will level off all on its own from what I'm seeing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of automatic selling going on that makes these swings much worse than they really are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, but someone placed the stop loss order etc. Panic selling, from some on this site even. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DriftBusta Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Great time if : -you're risk averse or stressed about the market -you are 55-64, or within 8-9 years of retirement -you have at least 500k in investible assets To put up to 30-35% of your money into a good variable annuity. Why? Guaranteed minimum 5.5% compound annual rollup in value, if markets do better, that number goes up. Daily highwater mark. Joint life payout of 5.1% of that guaranteeded minimum withdrawal base-unti you and spouse dies. 5.6% if single payout. Whatever is left goes to heirs. People stressing over the markets or thinking they can time it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s good general advice, especially if you’re one of those knuckleheads contemplating pulling money to the sidelines. 95% of the population isn’t even aware of what an annuity is or how they work. Oh, and fuck off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
