I put the quotes there for a reason ... I can’t help it if people ignore them ...
You could have made over 40% in a day had you speculated on the VIX on Feb. 27!
1) Hindsight is better than fore site by a damn site.
2) Thank you for correctly using the word speculate.
3) When I used to ask farmers what their average yield was, they would always tell me the best year. So what is the average return on this speculation?
I have done it and the average was not good............
We’re about there. I figure we have abt 3-4 weeks of food.
Not sure on the medicines yet. Working on that.
Thanks for posting this. Taleb should be required reading for every Freeper.
That’s why I posted it.
Although it may not seem like it, I also appreciate the post. It made me think, although my perspective is longer term.
As a serial entrepreneur, I argue that to withstand the learning process, one must be tough, ie antifragile
Like transgender, antifragile is a perversion of the language
For prescription stuff do this. Every time you get a refill take out 2 days worth and stash it. We’ve been doing that for a couple of years. We have about 45 days worth of our maintenance meds.
Best,

No, you need both.
How are you going to barter?

I have to admit I made a killing when it went from $800 to $1600.
