I can attain Edward Jones is stupid high and it is the worst preformer. I am going to hold though because they are draftin out of my account and I got 3 quarters of withdrawals in there which is good saving for me. So they have to eat.and at-least for now I am executing saving some money. But yeah if I was a boss I would be doing a lot better. I still think people get wrapped up in penny pinching when people at those firms got to eat as well. I feel better day in and day out knowing that I am happier sharing the wealth than being a penny pinching guy. Obviously strategy but hey I haven't been so miserable that I kill myself. Hi five!

I've had a very small amount of GE since 2008. Bought at $20.37. It's been a pretty meh investment. In retrospect, I should've sold when it went above $30 in 2016 and/or in 2017.
Dividends haven't been bad over the years, but now it sounds like they might cut them.
Suppose if you think it will quickly get back to $30+...
EDIT: I see GE cut its dividend in half. Blech... [Reply]
No business model/structure/capital structure/succession plan/whatever is strong enough to overcome stupid. And there is stupid out there. In spades. [Reply]
Anyone have any specific thoughts on CIM? I'm thinking about picking up some more of it. I've had it since 2015, and really enjoy the dividends. Stock price has dipped a bit, but I don't see anything bad about its fundamentals. [Reply]
