Think about what happens when monthly pay-ins occur from companies. Think about what happens when companies dump in profit sharing or matching funds at the end of the year. Some companies don't do it that way but more than a few do including mine who OBTW will withold all matching if you leave before Jan 1st - cute huh? 401K haven't been around all that long, what happens when all of those folks who signed up when it began reach retirement age and begin withdrawing? As you pointed out, things are going to get weird. My worry is what happens when we begin to have a large portion of the population reach retirement age and we realize that maybe 10% are prepared for it? Being sighted in the land of the blind could be hazardous...
I gotta' tell you, the bond funds I'm able to choose from in my 401K have done nothing but lose money for at least the last year. I leave a smidge in there just to see how quickly it goes down. When bonds begin to show some strength I'll consider buying into them but so far that's not been the case despite interest rates rising. Hopefully the orange idiot doesn't nuke the stock market, he sure seems to be trying!
Russell Large Cap Growth, Russell Small Cap, US Structured Research, S&P 500. Spread a little into the Euro/Asian funds and maybe choose one of the later retirement year funds so it's not sticking crap into bonds right now. Vanguard has good funds but man they make it hard to figure out what the tickers are for your companies funds when they use them for management!
Sadly, appartently very few are disciplined enough to actually invest money like that and would instead have spent that on things like a better car, bigger house, or a vacation vs investing it. Those fools need SS to be taken or they would truly be penniless. The numbers I see for 401K and savings balances are terrifying...
Agree so long as it doesn't require flashing the radios. No doubt OEMs will charge an assload for it
Federal Regulations?! Where have you seen that? I cannot imagine what regulation that could be and would love to know WTF. The last time I tried to use CarPlay in a car and Waze together it was a disaster and I'd decided I'd avoid it in my next car but if Waze will work I'm onboard! Hopefully it won't require firmware flashes of radcios because if it does this is a near worthless feature announcement!
All the more reason not to support them it seems?
Kodi I've got covered with multiple NUC, I'm interested in the drive you're using to rip the UHD BR
An ironic statement made in a posting about software that allows you to do EXACTLY that. RedFox aka SLySoft and MakeMKV as well as others allow you to rip the media just fine.
Ditto! I rip and store the originals - too much forced crap on disks these days. Here's an FBI warning, here's a preview, here's who knows WTF I don't want to see. I also buy my disks used as often as possible for as little as possible. Some movies that I really appreciate I'll pay for brand new but it's sure not too many with the cost of them.
What hardware player are you using? I might like to pick one up for future use
Jailed? No he was fined $30K or had to spend 6months in jail. Sorry, don't make this out like the guy didn't do just fine out of this.
Right there with you, I was a lifetime user and supporter of many years myself. Got others on the bandwagon and used their software to great success. Now suddenly it's Chinese software in posession of the full IP of the other company but they cannot honor my license? I should accept this? No thanks, I've moved on and there are other options.
Factorials were someone's attempt to make math LOOK exciting.
