  1. Sure. But we are no where near the most densly populated to get his, which tells you something about our pathetic reaction to it.
  2. That's probably true, though I would also bet our count is very low as well.
  3. The US now leads the world in deaths.
  4. Louder for the cult members in the back. The man lies about his own words, and people buy it.
  5. While we probably couldn't have stopped it, we could have prepared and mitigated the problem a heck of a lot better than we did. We closed our eyes and pretended nothing was happening until the middle of March.
  6. I can tell that a HUGE part of the RV industry is right here in Indiana (Elkhart/Goshen area to be more exact) and they are shutdown. There is probably excess inventory out there right now, but they won't reopen until there is enough demand to do so.
  7. The other piece of financial advice I would mention is if you think your situation is going to be stable for the next year, the next couple of months are going to be the time to make your big ticket purchases. Car, house, appliance, etc With as many people as just got put out of work, the inventory accumulation is going to be hard and fast. They will be able to adjust for months down the road, but not for now. On top of that, interest rates will probably never be lower than now.
  8. Our school system had to limit it to a meal kid per kid in the school system.
  9. I don't know how accurate this is but this is damned scary. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8192015/Fifty-one-recovered-coronavirus-patients-test-positive-South-Korea.html
  10. Have your little tantrum all you want. The bottom line is that political stuff needs to stay in the political threads. If you can't tell the difference, we have staff members trained to help you out with it. If you want to complain more about life is unfair, feel free to PM. Going forward, baseball stuff can be on the baseball boards. If it isn't, it doesn't belong here.
  11. That is going to create some big problems. A lot of homes use temp agencies to bring people in when short staffed. Especially with COVID related illnesses, there will be homes that can't adequately staff up, and dangerously so.
  12. Again, we have a thread for politics related to COVID, let's keep this stuff to baseball.
  13. I had to re-read my post and make sure I didn't type it in another language or something, but when you are talking about politicians (you know, the people who engage in politics, such as Governors?) and passing judgement on their actions being "theatrical", that pretty clearly passes into politics. There is a thread specifically for this. Hopefully that is simple enough.
  14. We have a thread for the politics of this on off topic forum. Let's keep this to baseball and not cheerleading politicians.
  15. If it is extra, this could be stock picking money. If not, SP funds.
  16. And my absolutely free piece of advice, never, ever, never, ever, never keep your mind it target year retirement funds. They are excuses to do a lot of trading in the fund and charge a lot of fees. You can accomplish the exact same thing with an SP fund and a bond fund.
  17. Your other option is to avoid it entirely and move to an IRA. Instead of funds, I just buy the ETFs directly for a fraction of the price in terms of fees.
  18. The good news is he won't get fooled again.
  19. Never even heard of them. Check what their fee schedlules look like is a nice way to judge.
  20. First the figure was 1 or 2, then it was 15 cases going to zero soon.
  21. Jails and nursing homes are places you do not want to be right now. If you get one case, everyone gets it.
