    All new is fake, if you don’t like it. So I hope Agent Orange does all he promised and when inflation gets back to 8 percent, interest rates go back up, people lose their ACA coverage, GDP is down and nobody is around to work agro jobs, I’ll have lots of fun smearing all of it into the faces of...

    Now who said “deficits don’t matter”….The whole supply side economic theory does not work and it never will. Trump will give more and more tax cuts to corporations and to the 1 percent, on the assumption that said people will create more jobs…and it’ll run up the deficit….just like before…when...

    Media dumps

    I sort of look at my 4BW as a coupe with two extra doors, and a bit of space for a pet carrier with litter box, guitars, an amp or two, clothes and a computer that I can load up and drive to my house in Mn, in the summer. I suppose one could fit toddlers or young kids in the back, I don’t have...

    Yes, I could also use my TSP 401K and buy an annuity.....that can vary a bit as the interest rates do. So, if I take out 3K per month.....and look at that balance after 25 years or so or take the annuity and give them all of my balance now and they give me xx dollars per month for...

    AIM Smarty cam with sensor that plugs right into the OBD port. Then you get all the car’s data as you drive.

    I’ve made sure not to have any classified materials in my name or have the codes to any safes or scif rooms. My boss wanted me to get a TS but I told him I would be gone in a year, so it was pointless to go through all that process, then get out. The only reason I’m still in is because at 62 I...

    I have trained people to take my place, but then they got offers for lots more money and stock options once they got the right skills and experience, so they left. Good for them, but I'm not staying around to do that again. Same for new hires and recent graduates, I can at best get them a...

    I only need to give one month notice. It’s not an easy process as a Fed to retire, given all of the paperwork that’s got to be filed and processed by various agencies. Lots of people will be retiring, many of them crucial to daily operations and that’s really going to slow things down.

    4 more months and I’m out at 62 when my pension calculation changes. I’ll hold my nose and work for the orange convict for three of those. I have no intentions of training anyone to take my place or complete and major tasks…cruissssssse control activated. I want to thank all of the tax payers...

    Religious freedom also means the freedom not to believe in some silly all powerful being and more importantly not to be ruled by people that do. Like I said, I hope he gets all that he wants and people feel the pain of it. Oh and he will default on the deficit and not raise the debt ceiling. Not...

    Try to blame it on Biden and Obama. That why I want Trump to have every brain wormed/puppy killer/rapist/white nationalist/TV doctor cabinet candidate he wants....cause the people that get screwed by the repeal of the ACA, cuts to SS, cuts to Medicare, cuts to Medicaid, snap repeal, and more...

    I hope the ACA gets killed and so does any pre existing clause too. People wanted him, you get all of him. Does not affect me at all, so let’s do it.

    Yes but if you delay too long, then there is a possibility of reduced benefits due to it running out of money. You either run up the deficit due to tax cuts and/or cut benefits.

    The ACA will be dead by summer. The only reason it’s still around is that McCain had the final vote in the senate that saved it, ways back. Trump will have a GOP house and GOP senate to get anything he wants. Elon and Rammywhatever want it killed, so bye bye ACA.

    Trump and the GOP will kill the ACA, and won’t replace it. It’s what America wanted. I’m a fed and will be a retired fed so I will get to keep my blue cross blue shield and it’s 80 percent covered by the government when I punch out. Even if the ACA survives, which it won’t, the pre existing...

    I bought my “retirement” home in 2019 and it’s all paid off. Retire in May, then drive up and spend the summer there to get away from the heat and humidity of the mid Atlantic

    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    Stopped by the dealer and had them remove the shipping spacer blocks from the front suspension. When I bought it Tuesday I should have checked it before I drove off with it. I’ve been doing the break in procedure and was hearing some squeaks from the front, stopped for lunch and took a...

    When it was obvious Trump would win and stock futures hit a 2.5 percent on the SP500 after the bell on election day, I moved a bunch of money into my C fund that tracks the SP500 before noon the day after the election, made a nice chunk after the bell closed the day after the election and today...

    IRS clearly states that you cant get access to it, without the 10 percent penalty unless you are 59 1/2. In some cases for financial needs that changes a bit.
