    I realized that the secret to making a million is saving for a better investment. I always tell myself you don't need that new Maserati or that vacation just yet. That mindset helped me make more money investing. For example last year I invested 80k in stocks and made about $246k,but guess what? I put it all back and traded again and now I am rounding up close to a million

      We need to be paying attention to who the students are, so if they never get hired. They literally stand with the murder of children. Hamas is the government a Palestine Latisse people say they stand with. Hamas did a two-year plan to attack not a military base is in Israel, but on the children of Israel. That is what these college students profess to love. The murder of Jewish children. It is the most disgusting thing in all of history of the students should be held accountable for alignments with terrorism and hate.

    Such a weird time to protest given its a very controlled private event that doesn’t have a large public viewing.
    Its not impactful on a private event and the only thing you can look back is that you ruined your own and everyone else’s graduation on a subject matter that probably won’t be relevant in the next decade.

      You'd have to ask them. Some say its because of his blanket support for Israel, which he's made public. Some say its because he is constantly deriding the younger generations for 'destroying comedy'. Some maybe because he's wearing a dress.
