Small things will help the most. Deposits for flats*, tires for cars, equipment for a business (though not all of it). Giving the unprepared cash is like giving an open can of gasoline and a box of matches to a chimpanzee.


*In light of what has been posted previously, this is not appropriate for someone with an already substantial income.

Lol, Reminds me of something I read ones, "giving a woman knowledge is like putting a knife in the hands of a monkey."

As I was just about to turn of my computer I saw that my offer on this gem was accepted.
A 1977 Estes X wing.
Those were so hard to build! God I remember them.

Of course the Astron Omega was a hell of a rocket as well....

The Astron Omega is now on the National Air and Space Museum site.

 Those things went for 150,000 Imperial credits new!!  Can you still light it up?


I hope so, I'll have to check the integrity of the body when it arrives.

Donkeyco*in sounds like a great shitcoin as a noble alternative for Dogecoin or so. What are we waiting for? Cool

 Ya know... I wonder about launching "AnusCoin" - It's basically a total ripoff of Bitcoin, but max issuance is 455,455. Everything works on the same halving timeline as Bitcoin.

 In theory, this should appreciate 46 times faster than Bitcoin.

 Took a look at the Estes Scrambler on the tube, looks like a cool rocket with the payload section and the three engines.

Going to bed dreaming of the moon.

I'm not really sure if "taking profits" in fiat can really be considered correct phraseology any longer.
I don't think you guys are getting just how far gone the current fiat banking systems are. It's like saying taking profits in Zimbabwe dollars, or taking profits in Venezuelan bolivars, argentine pesos ... at some point it's nonsensical to talk about taking profits if you're buying a higher risk devaluing asset


It depends what you're buying. fiat or an investment (which your home is not) then probably not but if you're materially improving your life (even in trivial or ephemeral ways) then I think it's fair.

How is a home not an investment?

Is rent free where you are?

Your home is only an investment if you plan to one day sell it (for more than you bought it); if you don't ever plan to leave, then it's not really an investment.

Yes it is.... its an investment for a little piece of mind as an always last back up, diversification tool, a store of value likely to increase overtime, when you pass away its still a leftover for your kids etc you can see many ways why its good and I still and always will prefer it over renting a place....

Like in Belgium loans are cheap AF buy a house of X-price, pay a bit up front and loan the sh*t out of it.... renting is a lot of times more expensive ... and you get d*ck for it ...

Actually, according to my economics 101 course, tho only investment a private person can do is buying real estate, all other purchases are regarded as consumption. (Not sure if "konsumtion" translates to consumption in English).

I bought myself a model rocket from the UK today, decided to start launching rockets again, something I did when I was younger.
It's gonna be interesting to see what the customs fee is, if any, now that brexit is done.

When I was a kid I used to make rockets out of paper towel tubes and one time I ran out of wadding so I substituted tissue paper (woops i was a dumb kid) So when the cone shot off the rubber band melted and the rocket fell to the ground while the parachute with the cone floated in the sky till I couldn't see it and was gone.

Now here is the fucking sick part!

I got home and the cone was sitting on the front walk to my front stairs!!!

you just can't make this shit up!

Reality is a really weird place to live. Smiley
Nice. I used to do Estes rockets, loved the Scrambler (3 C engines) then I got into Aerotech bigger rockets with the F and G engines. Still have one in my closet along with a few motors, wonder if I can still get them.

I could get back into that as a hobby, although since I'm a pilot I now have to follow all FARs.

Cool, yeah they were Estes when i was a kid.

I keep telling myself to get a pilots license but I am just one lazy fuck these days. Cheesy

The one I bought is actually an Estes, it's the Estes 7000 Bull Pup 12D
https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2047675.m570.l1313&_nkw=+Estes+7000+Bull+Pup+12D&_sacat=0

I bought that one because it's very similar to the SAAB missile Rbs 15 Gungnir, you basically just need to put a shorter cone on it and paint it green or grey, and that's exactly what I plan on doing.

Thats a really cool story.

Falcon heavy with real nozzle control.

Well, he is right, nothing lasts forever, it will go to zero somewhere in a distant future.

The source as I understand it is SVT, Swedish television website, it says so in the text.

" I’ve been getting most of my statistics from SVT, the Swedish public broadcaster. They had been providing data on the share with antibodies in Stockholm up to a month or two back, when that information discretely disappeared from their website. I wonder why."

Do you really believe this yourself? Then you can easily be scammed by some 'Elon giving away coins' type of scam. Or another possibility could be wishful thinking. Grin  Grin

Oh ffs, I live in Sweden, I have seen the graph plenty of times, if you claim it was never there, then you prove it.

So after the data "vanished" (show me an archive.org link first, that is was there in the first place. Maybe it was just never there and he just claims it was "removed"?) he only then started to make the data up? Cheesy

Do it yourself, I'm not chasing your strawman.

Always make sure your house has a fireplace. Friend in Texas is -3 temps and no power. A miserable heat pump won't do squat in that case.

... right, doesn't need to be wood fire just something that burns, when all else fails the ancient way to combat ice is with fire

... diesel, oil, gas, propane, wood, plastic ... anything that burns to survive, fuck these greenie idiots who've never lived in a true time of want or need

Gave you you last merit for that, take good care of it.

And on the topic of taking fiat profits.
What else can you do if you want to buy something or pay of your loans or just have emergency cash in case of a blackout.
It's not like you can use bitcoin for your daily shopping.

Daily new deaths and daily new cases dropping rapidly.
And there is still no lockdown in Sweden and very few people use face masks I might add.

It might just be working.
