I know this will get frowned own, but about 10 years ago my wife and kids approached me about getting an in-ground pool. I didn't want one because of the install and maintenance cost and I knew they wouldn't use it as much as they were saying when they was trying to sell me on the idea. So, I told them I would agree to get a above ground pool that's made to be sunk into the ground 2 feet and we can put a deck around it to make it look nice. All of that was 1/4 of the cost to install an in-ground pool.

Looking back, I'm glad I stood my ground and went that route because since it's been installed, it only get used about 2-3 times a year. It's just a big arse, expensive water feature. I'm getting to the point of wanting to tear it out and getting some dirt hauled in.
I'm somewhat disappointed in TD. Here we are on page 3 and no one has identified her yet :lol:

Lane is trying to prove a point that he can kick Ole Miss arse with his second team :lol:
Dude is a damn legend. He better get a TigerDroppings Award for his work.

I thought so too. We need a coach that's willing to whip Zion's arse when throws his temper tantrums.

We did this recently and found a Labrador Doodle that was confiscated from the previous owner because of abuse. I was worried about his temperament because of the abuse. We've only had him for three months now and he's awesome. No issues at all.
What are the odds that this is the Home Depot off Claiborne in New Orleans?

Zion needs to be more selfish


Zion will never become dominant until he develops and willing to shot a jump shot. His way of playing will get shut down during the playoffs when teams actually start playing actual defense.

He is not in the portal but Santa Clara star Allen Graves is from Ponchatoula and his older brother played here for Wade. Might be something to keep an eye on.


Allen is not coming back to Louisiana and whatever LSU offers, Santa Clara will match or beat it to keep him.

Zion has to start actually shooting


I've been saying this since his rookie year. He would be unstoppable if hewould just add the threat of a mid range jumper to his game. The way he plays, I would never guard him on the perimeter until he proves his willing and capable of hitting a jump shot consistently.

The older I get, the more I'm in line with the thinking I'll be happier with a smaller house, less stuff, and be retired and doing the things that makes me happy versus working my arse off constantly trying to maintain this upper middle class lifestyle.
I wish I would've caught it in December. Price is currently way too high for an initial speculative investment for me.

I like your optimism, but that November stretch will be brutal.

Bama, Texas, @Tenn will be rough. Even @Arky to close out the season won't be a cake walk because they always play us tough.

If y’all have trouble with flomax as well, daily cialis 5mg has been shown to help with enlarged prostate and urinary troubles. Also with the added benefit of better erextions so something to try if flomax doesn’t work.


Based on your advice, I reached out to my doctor to see if this was an option for me. The doctor agreed and sent me a 30 day prescription to see if it will work better than Flomax. I'm crossing my fingers that within a week or so I'll notice less night time bathroom trips.

Thanks for sharing.

If y’all are having symptoms that are significantly effecting quality of life, can look into Aquablation procedure. Urologist can do a cysto/urocuff beforehand to see if you’re a good candidate.


Thanks for the suggestion. I'm going to ask my urologist about this. I take Flomax because of an enlarge prostate and while it it does make it easier to pee, I'm still getting up like every two hours or so to urinate.

You just didn’t get it bro. It’s not a growth fund! It’s an income fund that you can’t actually take the distributions because you have to reinvest them back into the fund…


I'm invested in several of these and like others, I've been very concerned about the NAV erosion over the past couple of months. Based on what I've been reading online, the split will basically be cosmetic in nature and you won't lose any value that you own and your dividend payouts will remain the same. Yes, you'll end up with less share, but YieldMax will be resetting the price point to stabilize the NAV. So, it seems like to me, if you're thinking about getting out of any of these ETFs, you should do it after the split once the price is raised.

If this is the process for re-stabilizing the NAV after it has eroded, I don't see why someone wouldn't stay in and grab these dividends if YieldMax is just going to reset the price point? If I'm missing something here, someone please explain it to me.

We should've have to do that if we are paying for a service. Just more proof that the Pels brass sucks. Just imagine the uproar if people had to go through these hoops to watch a Saints game.
