I don't follow. Why is the GOP to blame here? If the other party allows these cuts to expire, why wouldn't you blame that party?

Your not taking into account the time value of money. You always want to expense sooner. Additionally, having to wait 4 additional years to deduct that 80% is a huge drain on capital. Combine this with higher interest rates and the effect i

I think what the parent means is that traditionally society is run with all age groups considered important. A strong focus on the future with the aged proud of the sacrifices they make for the young. Elders now are concerned with maximum,

I guess I don’t buy that. Many non technical people use VPNs to access region restricted content. It is trivial to understand and use. Assuming this all actually happened as described, it sounds like someone wanted it to appear that these a

This just seems odd. Why would they attempt a login from Russia (if it was indeed Russians)? It is incredibly cheap to use a VPN with a US residential IP.

How does that translate into kidney lifespan? I would expect only one kidney to “wear out” sooner, no?

This is just a silly plan grounded in the idea that we need to somehow punish those evil billionaires. We can’t (and won’t) tax unrealized gains when there is no intent on selling.

I encounter that issue when the chat becomes too long. Starting a new chat with context and asking your question again typically works for me.

Not really the same thing. As I understand it, the "constructive sales" rules were developed in response to hedge funds structuring transactions with forward contracts (and other clever instruments) to avoid short term gains taxes

The saying “time kills all deals” seems to apply here. Increasing the amount of time you dwell on a decision seems to decrease the amount of risk you’re willing to take.

If you are overweight, you need to take responsibility and change your lifestyle. Of course, everyone instinctively knows this even if they want to use mental gymnastics to explain why it is OK. Alcoholics, drug addicts, etc are defensive t

I don’t disagree but not sure what point you’re trying to make here. Problems with regulation are the expected consequence of living in the real world and not a model. They should be fixed and we can do better. I just don’t see how any of t

Well, housing needs to mostly be handled by the private sector if we want high quality. Government housing should absolutely exist, but only as a safety net as their management is incredibly inefficient. Private housing isn’t the issue here

If you're comparing passively investing in VTSAX vs some REIT, I might agree with you. But generally, the fewer people between you and your capital being deployed, the higher the return. Real Estate is the one investment that most peop
