    I will counter with what my 22YO son told me today. If the no tax on tips and no tax on OT gets passed, he will make a huge bonus in his take home due to high tips and OT in the beach service in a ridiculously overpriced panhandle county. He works long hourly hours with lots of OT doing overpriced night fires (they call them bonfires but they are just a few burning logs in a metal pan). Clientele throws Benjamin’s around like I do $10s. Plus nice tips are added to the credit card bills. He will absolutely not mind.

    If Trump wins I will say out loud what I said in 2016…”What the hell have we done?”

    Also Wi has Harris underperforming 2020 and Trump over performing in counties compared to 2020.

    Yes, as obviously most don't invest or they'd be happy on seeing returns (+11,000). My IRA Roth is overflowing with happiness. The disconnect is everyday paychecks with most folks. Those businesses are booming on the stock market though. It's a weird juxtaposition.

    One of the heads on NBC seems a bit worried about NC and GA going to Trump, citing trends in the internal numbers.

    He must have studied states and counties by shape and location for years. I wonder if there are any counties he can’t name.

    so she has no understanding what drove the immigration? how cutting off funding for security and economic development, done by trump, led to worsening conditions complicated by covid that drove the migration? of course not, facts don't matter, just wanted someone simple to blame

    That was strange. I thought all evening they were showing Harris leading and then boom Trump wins.

    This is where it’s a failure of education.

    People need to learn to pay themselves first. If an employer matches put in to get the match it’s an extra raise.

    I work with a few people making 6 figures who don’t even do it.
    They ask me about stocks all the time. My first question is are they maxing their 401k, none are. They would rather drive 80k cars and take 5 trips a year.

    Harris is toast, she’s not winning this thing. Congrats to the Trumpers on their guy winning it. I’m not happy about it and I think the next four years are going to be very bad and dark for this country, but it is what it is. Democrats need to get their crap together.

    It’s one of those states where the big cities get their votes counted first but the rest of the state is much slower.

    Had the same conversation with my son this week and finally convinced him to max out his required 401K contribution to get the employer match. That is free money. That rate of return is unbeatable unless you buy Trump merch. I kid, I kid. But the boy is in the 401K program finally after three years of discussions.

    I hope what’s best for the country is what happens.

    I’ve been very clear I didn’t like either and didn’t vote for either today.

    I expect Trump to still be a bombastic ass and the Dems to still go after him.

    Over under on number of months for the next impeachment?

    The networks will call NC and GA any moment now. Question is does PA get called first or WI? At first, I thought WI, but it might be PA.
