GHI!!!!

Hmm, September 13th you say.   

If I cancel my AH2 subscription on September 12th will HTC pro-rate that month's fee so that I can pick up the book on the 14th for a fraction of the best price I can find right now?   

When are you getting on-line next?

You got to do more of your missions!!!

That's always a risk. 

Out of curiosity, do you consider the government support of the transcontinental railroad, and the Apollo space program, or the building of the interstate hi-way system as pointless wastes of money?

Nope.  I don't consider those pointless wastes of money.  The Apollo program, in economic terms, was probably a waste of money compared to alternative uses.

The government is getting much better at wasting money, though.  Examples abound.  Here is just one.  Where I live near Seattle, they are building a new bridge to replace an old one.  The new bridge is 20 times more expensive on an inflation adjusted basis -- 20!  I would even be able to swallow something like 4 times more expensive (which is conceding a lot), but 20?  Graft and inefficiency is far too great on grand government projects these days, even at the state level, let alone the federal level.

Do people actually read history books.

Has anyone read that book written in 1860's which envokes a immediate forum violation.

I do!

The "History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire" by Gibbon invokes a violation?  Oh, wait.  That was 1780.

In Amerika...the Stock Market plays YOU!

   Nice!

So infrastructure is government spending and waste?  I rather like the freeway system, the electrical grid, water supplies and the Internet among other (wasteful) government programs "that suck the life out of any other productive investments".

With that attitude it's a good thing you're working on your survival supplies.

Today, a lot of government spending is has enormous graft and waste in it.  This is especially true when there is a program specifically to pump extra money into things, where the pumping of the money becomes the main driver, not the need of the work.

I was responding to a thing like "there should be a program to pump huge money into [put your favorite here]."  When that happens, you get Solyndras x 1000.

By the way, the Internet boom was not the government.  The government wisely realized that it would be good to let normal citizens and private enterprise expand Arpanet/Darpanet.  Until then, you would not have heard of it unless you worked at a place like Oak Ridge National Labs.

What is the name of the bridge?

[zack1234]

I do!

Were Gibbons named after him?

[Rolex]

Of course not. Gibbons were named after you!

As the imortal Tarzan would say.

UNGAWA!

I agree with a lot of your premises.

However, a CFP is far from a broker; clients pay them to manage their estate's investments (not just stocks/funds).

That actually sounds like a pretty good idea. I've been thinking of doing something similar.

One career path im thinking about is to be a financial strategist, which maybe I have made up that title, but I want to be hired by companies or people to come up with the best solutions to invest and create fundamental growth in those entities through planning and proper spending, along with offering solutions to which way is the best path to take for better quality growth.

Still got a lot of learning and things to experience first before I feel comfortable getting into that sort of thing.

dmonslyr you can do whatever you want with your knowledge, if you got the low down and the skills there is no limit to what you can do in the financial world, you remind me of my brother who because of being frugal and smart about finances is ahead of the game beyond me and many others...

Ehh golf is a bit boring for me. I do enjoy the driving range and perhpas going out there and goofing off. I'm a tennis player. 4.5 ultimate player. Take that a bit more seriously. Atlanta has a hell of of a competition though.
