Sold 7billion worth of shares right after the shareholders meeting and after saying he wouldn't sell any more a couple months ago. He must be losing the Twitter case. [Reply]

They have a fixed component w/ a variable inflation component that get updated biannually. The fixed component has mostly been 0 since the GFC. Though with rates getting jacked there maybe a bit of a fixed amount next refresh.
I think just stocks or real estate would be better for the kids 10 years down the road.
If you had I series bonds from the 80s still you're probably collecting 20%+ on govt backed bonds that aren't liable to state taxes and can defer fed taxes and keep compounding until maturity. That would be reason for a happy dance lol [Reply]
I got a job offer that's going to pay me more than I've ever made in my life (I'm a few years from 40 so I guess it's about time) I figure I'll have about 10-15k I want to invest my first year. Is that a good amount? Where should I begin? [Reply]

Real Estate, buy you a rental. Best thing I ever did.
Oh wait, you probably rent , Buy your own home , get a fixer upper , live there for a year while you get it fixed up and then move to another house and rent that one out. that's how I did my first three. [Reply]
