I stuck by my “pet stock”, and I’ve been rewarded

I bought my first stock on my own account in early 2000. The company was called ARM Holdings, and they make software that runs embedded processors. My shares, then, cost $33.00 each. I thought that they had an excellent business model, licensing their software to companies that make computer chips for lots of different products. …

The difference between me, and Warren Buffett

Of course, the obvious difference between me and Warren Buffet is wealth. Mr. Buffett is wealthy beyond belief. His secretary earns over $100,000 a year, for goodness sake! I don't earn anywhere near that, and the money I earn is wage income, not the capital gains Mr. Buffett lives on these days. I have savings, …

An Open Letter to Barack Hussein Obama, Mmmm, Mmmm, Mmmm

Dear Mr. Obama, Please STOP tearing down all the Traditions and Institutions the majority of the American People hold near and dear, starting with the institution of MARRIAGE.

And Now For Something Entirely Different…Try Tiffany

RushBabe49 is a Tiffany shareholder, and a Tiffany shopper, even with a moderate income. It sometimes amazes me that there are people who feel intimidated, and won't enter a Tiffany store because they have to walk past the armed security guards at the door. They have been opening stores in areas of the country that …

“Royalty” in the White House?

You always knew that the Obama family, ensconced in the White House, had expensive tastes. They seem to have made extravagant use of their taxpayer-funded Boeing 747's (Air Force One and Two) to convey themselves and their friends to New York, Spain, and elsewhere on a series of vacations and last-minute jaunts. But did you …

Consequences of “National” Healthcare-ObamaCare to be Fully Implemented

The following has been distilled from "Best of The Web Today", by James Taranto for the Wall Street Journal, under "Great Moments in Socialized Medicine". This is what we can expect when ObamaCare is fully implemented (now pretty much guaranteed with a second Obama term). The British National Health Service (and other great moments in …

The end of the American Century?

Since its founding in the 18th century, the United States of America has been a beacon of Liberty and Prosperity to a sometimes dismal world. We nearly single-handedly saved Europe from the Reich, then rebuilt it, from our prosperity. Millions of people have emigrated from their own stagnant, backward, dictator-ruled countries, sometimes at great risk …
