re: Stock with Former Employer

how do you feel that company will do long term?


It may go back to pre-dip level eventually, but think where I got in based off options is the top.

quote:

Would you want to own it otherwise?


No, I wouldn't go out and buy it otherwise.

quote:

Do you own it at a discount to current price?


No, the discount was 15-25% higher than is now, depending on the shares


ETA: Grok is telling me to take the loss, offset other gains this year, reinvest the proceeds into VOO, and then take the 3k/year deduction until the loss is run out. Don't know if I trust our AI overlords.

Stock with Former Employer

Whats the board normally do with stock they have from a former employer? Do you hold and let it ride or do you move into a diversified account?

A little context. Down 25% w/ quarterly dividend around 1.5%

Do you take the loss for tax purposes and roll into VOO, or let it sit and hope it comes back down the line.

Yep. Finding a DC Judge who’d sign off on a warrant, is.


She immigrated years before Congress... What the hell would she have in DC that would be relevant to her own immigration fraud :dunno:

Wonder if its something else.

This is the type of move that can't blow up in their faces, not after the various other prosecutorial failures of this admin


I mean, the witch hunts to go after Trump didn't blow up in the Dems faces... has kind of just died on the vine, so I'd imagine this is the same.

Wonder who was the judget that signed off on the search? In DC, you have to imagine its.a D

Doesn't sound like this is tied to her brother/husband?

Maybe her alleged war criminal dad in the tweet below? Lied on her immigration paperwork?

This. I wonder what was there first, that building, or Wrigley?


There's only a handful left that have line of sight after the remodel.

If they have line of sight, the Cubs should have 0 control over what they do as long as it isn't impacting the games.

Again, petty on their party, but the homeowners were petty when they sued to stop the remodel that put up the new billboards.

The winner of the 2026 TD F1 Singapore GP is Lsut81, for his second win of the season and his fourth podium! It was uncanny how good his list was, with 7 drivers in their exact positions, and 4 drivers just one position off.





Had Hadj not started where he did, it could have been even better. :banghead:

Crazy to think that on your own property you can be told not to do what you want with it.



I mean, the shoe is on the other foot because the home owners sued Wrigley when they put up the Right Field and Left Field score boards and advertising, claiming they had rights to view the field from their brownstones.

Think its petty from the cubs but it is what it is.

So after Sprint, Kimi up by 89 over Russell with Russell starting last for the race.

You hate to see it.

Talarico could be caught on film murdering babies at a hospital & puppies at a shelter & Democrats in Texas would still run to polls to vote for him. This is where we are now in this country.


100%…

But you could say the same thing about Trump. The blind following is on both sides of the aisle. It’s fricking scary.
Was just coming to post after I saw the FIA statement.... They keep stepping on their dicks and its hilarious.

Glad its happening to them especially when they tried to gaslight the initial set of drivers hating on the new regs.

Assuming a simulcast payment is worth it for Apple.


Something I better than nothing :dunno:

quote:

most people watching "for free" on another service aren't going to subscribe then why does Apple cater to them


Why do services offer free trials? To try to stir up interest and get people to subscribe.
Jesus Christ, seeing the highlights… Pikers boy wouldn’t say that Iran is more dangerous than Israel? :lol:

Talk about playing to your core, inner, base when you’re now in the general. Hopefully Roger’s has Trumps ad people ramping up some commercials.

If Apple simulcast why would anyone buy Apple TV?


Bc the network it is simulcast on will pay :dunno:

People aren’t gonna cancel their subscription bc the USGP is broadcast somewhere else. Apple isn’t losing anything.

Also saw an article about how Apple is going to have Dolby Atmos Audio for the US GP for those who have the capability.


Has Apple wised up and decided to simulcast somewhere else? They are getting shite kicked in on viewership.

Microsoft - H1B Fraud?

Posted by Lsut81 on 10/8/26 at 9:21 am
Vance speaking now. Cutting off Microsoft.

Laid off 6k Americans last year. Hired 6k H1Bs and an additional 3k Green Card holders.

Pretty brazen on their part.
