re: Annual Flood Insurance Renewal Thread
Posted by slackster on 3/18/24 at 11:00 pm
Look at your uncapped/unsubsidized premium on the renewal statement. If you can’t find it, check the declarations page of your most recent renewal (I believe that’s where it is).
Your annual premiums are capped at 17%, so your previous policy should have been for around $682, unless something ch...

I just chuckle that it’s EJ that catches all the flak. I guess that’s to be expected given their sheer size of FAs. Based on what...

[quote]Understood, but you are promoting a dividend fund earning less than the inflation rate for the last 3 years.[/quote]
Well that’s not true if you go back 3 years. I think it’s up close to 40% over the last 3 years. ...

[quote]There is a concern that it could become a self-liquidating concern as it continues to pay a high dividend.[/quote]
It pays a high dividend relative to its current price, but it’s been lower and lower relative to previous purchases. When I think dividend growth investing, I’m looking for, y...

[quote]BITO is up 110% the last 12 months. Bitcoin and BITO are going to have a monster year this year, so there's that. BITO did begin trading right when Bitcoin was at a top in 2021 just before a cyclical 4 year pullback, so your observation is pretty misleading in my opinion. Maybe you should s...

[quote]Two years ago LSU left small villages on base and it ultimately cost them in seeding and in postseason play. This is beginning to happen again. Hopefully it’s just a temporary problem.[/quote]
This is going to happen. The best hitting teams and the best teams at getting on base also typica...

[quote]If you pick any other dividend play, be sure to keep up with BITO to compare how you would have done.[/quote]
Probably a worthwhile exercise. Since BITO’s inception in October 2021 it’s down 1% cumulatively with dividends, and at one point it was down 75%. Its risk adjusted returns aren’t ...

A 60/40 portfolio like AOR would match that same performance from 12/21-12/23. It’s not all that surprising. ...
