Under Armour drops 15% today under reports it plans to slow growth. I've wanted to purchase UA stock for years but it's always been over-valued. It might be time........... [Reply]

It doesn't plan to meet expected profit margins due to slowed sales in 2016 and continued use of funds for expansion of the company. Looks bad short term to investors but looks good long term to me. [Reply]

Meh. Go through and listen to the audio questions. If it sounds like it is a total surprise, I'd be weary of putting a lot of dollars in there. Most of the CEOs are good at spinning it, but I'd always listen to the audio of Cabela's when I was there. [Reply]
I didn't update everyone but on November 1st I moved out of the office at the 4 1/2 month mark and into a HUGE 6,500 sq ft home only 12 years old with brand new hardwood floors, just painted, new rugs, very clean, and in a great area near Dulles Airport. I have a private room and bathroom, full kitchen use, full 65" TV, tons of basement storage, and my landlord is a government employee with top security clearance. Cost is $800 per month with 1/3 utilities.
Staying in the office on a temp was a great choice and put a bunch of money back in my bank account.
Now I'm settled in a beautiful home for at least the next year or two. [Reply]

That's got to be quite fulfilling. Nicely done. [Reply]

It was shocking how easy it was. The fact I had a bathroom with shower and locker room directly across from our office was a huge advantage along with the makeup of the corporate tenants.
The only small downside was that anytime I was very tired and wanted to sleep late I couldn't because I had to pack up my air mattress during the week by 6am and in the shower by 6:15. That was the one shitty part.
The lack of pressure to pay rent for 4 1/2 months was great. I almost thought of buying a real cheap small RV and do it for a year but I knew it sounded good on paper but not in practice. [Reply]
The predicted market plunge and "buying opportunity" today never came to pass. Another example of market timing being a bad plan. Slow and steady (and passive) over the long haul wins the race. [Reply]
Pretty crazy that S&P (and other) futures were down nearly 5% last night around midnight, yet we ended up ~1% today. I'm definitely glad I don't try and do anything other than pump money into my mutual funds and leave them alone - that shit would drive me nuts. [Reply]
