2/09 S&P Makes History Tops 5000

Invest in assets that throw off cash regardless of value. Fundamental and fool proof. Stock market is going to have a correction at some point. After the election most likely. In the meantime, party on!

Demand pull and Cost push= inflation. Interesting chart showing the huge increase in money supply ( including printing) and inflation the past several decades.

Inflation and maximizing employment always a challenge for the Fed. Reagan said it best "inflation is the silent killer" This is the whole reason for people to own equities and real estate if they can.

Unreal the amount of money that was printed and pushed into the economy in 2019 and 2020. Interesting chart but it would be fun to see 2020,the Covid year. Trillions were printed and handed out like M&M's. Between the Stimmies, the PPP, 2% mortgage rates and quantitative easing it put us on a path towards inflation. A chart for the last three years fight against inflation would be interesting to see as well. I will see if I can find it. Reagan would look at that and shake his head in disapproval.

It's the way the world is, has always been and will always be. None of us invented the world. Money doesn't solve all our problems but it does solve all of our money problems. I found it a lot easier to make money after I acquired some money. I asked my wife about the cost of groceries the other day. She said egg prices are down( hear that Brad?) but everything else is through the roof. What are you gonna do?

Just buy off-brand and add Lawry's Seasoned Salt and use that savings to move ahead.

Commercial real estate and in particular office space appears to be the deals right now. And deal just means the acceleration has paused. Ie is a hot market because it's the last parcels of land in so cal that can be had

I keep waiting for commercial real estate deals that are bangers but just don't see any. I look through listings almost every day. For you it's a no brainer because you are housing your business. It's a good move. For me it's a rental it's gotta cash flow. Buying office space and converting it to residential is a hot trend. California is giving grants to developers. Free money. But it's just not my thing. I get fucked by contractors every time and I don't like it. The predicted commercial real estate crash isn't happening and there's no sign of it happening.

I am sinking 3.75

Into a bldg that looks like a dump from the outside but gets us parking and loading and allows us to

Mfg. so while it's not the hq I dreamed of it's functional.

Now I'm dealing with government clowns who seem to want to come up with every reason for us not to do this
