My portfolio is rounding up to almost a million and I have realized that when a stock makes it to the news, chances are you're quite late to the party, the idea is to get in early on blue chips before it becomes public. There are lots of life changing opportunities in the market, and maximize it.

    Senator Kennedy--It must be frustrating to deal with these fools. But please keep doing it.

    Anyone work for a company that gives out tee shirts, coffee mugs and logo pens at staff appreciation day? The equivalent of tossing a penny to a beggar.

    If they cannot give a direct answer to a direct question within 30 seconds, they should be held in contempt.

    She wanted to call him racist for the ninja analogy. It would give her an out to her lack of accountability.

    Mr. Kennedy, oh how I wish you would run for the presidency! You would have my vote so quick.
    I love the very direct approach.
    I love how you are direct but in this subtle loving way. If you look beyond the shock value, look beyond the face of things, you can actually see love coming from you.
    Others may not see it that way, I sure do.
    God bless and be with you, sir. ❤

    Mr Kennedy is wasting his time with being so slow and beating around the bush. just say it without hesitation.

      I hear you. But it's an effective rhetorical technique. But, if they're not going to answer the question, there apparently is no way to force them.

    This dude is one of a kind. You cannot get a single thing passed him. It's the power of common sense and wisdom. Very rare.
