I have gotten fucked on this twice and lost like $10K which is pretty significant in my measly non Max-spec 401K.
yea, lets just hope its not a big swing unless its in my favor. I suspect that this 22.5k high was the 'dead cat bounce' of this bear market and its going to absolutely shit itself next week when the new unemployment numbers come in and the bodies begin to pile up.

Man, I've been on green stuff more than the vape lately and REALLY enjoy it. Found a Oneie at my dad's house that I "borrowed" and find it to be nearly as convenient as the vape.
I prefer the old fashioned way too, just a nice pipe or doobie. It's way less convenient and more incriminating :doe:
I also prefer smoking actual weed to the vape, but the vape is convenient for sure with no set up or clean up needed.

Same here...it's a tough one. On top of it, I have dumbasses at work creating problems because they're bored. Multiple conference calls scheduled when I woke up in which each one I'll need to yell at someone for creating problems that we don't need right now.

:rolleyes:

Going to get the camper squared away this weekend. I'm :excited: about that. All campgrounds are closed, but maybe we can find federal land somewhere to spend some time.
:rolleyes: causing problems just for the sake of causing problems is :bs:

Go glamping in the backyard. :megusta: it’ll be like you are 9 again. :lol:

That’s what I’m expecting. We still haven’t seen the worst of it I’m afraid.

3.8mm IIRC. This did not phase the money line, as money printer went BRRRRRRRRRR to the tune of 2 trillion for bailouts.

Now, as the true scope of this shit becomes clear, the money line will not be pleased and resume its march down to dji 6k

I wouldn’t take anything from China for granted, I read they are down 21 million cell phone users. So what are their beer flu statistics really like?

Italy’s population is about the same as combining NY, NJ, and Cali. We are going to have more cases than them as a country.
Interestingly Italy’s GDP is roughly the same as NY or Texas.

Re Italy yeah it was a matter of time before we took them over in cases because our population is larger.

Re cell phones if you have multiple cell numbers or accounts and no income you’re going to close off accounts to reduce expenses.

Is it? I’ve seen some companies doing that, but I don’t think it was a mandated thing. If it is, that’d be fuckin sick.

Trying to figure out how to keep running and managing our incoming inventory purchases against likely fairly drastically reduced incoming business to keep our cash flow at a level that doesn't kill us. All this work being done with the likely event of another shutdown looming in the near future. :disgust:

Surprisingly :notbad: day at work so far. One of my dealers is bored and apparently wealthy - helped him design a home theater for his basement at a cool $11.3K dealer cost - should be ordering today or next week.

Was able to help a few people with some things, and while I won't hit my quota for the month, sales were higher than March 2019, so all things considered that is pretty damn good I think.

This weekend I will bike/run/walk around outside quite a bit, work on the :poorvette: , do more shit around the house. Should be some pretty epic weather.

I'm trying to stay as upbeat and positive as I can and make the most of the house arrest.

Think I'm down a few pounds already, I will probably be rail thin by the end.
