I don't own any stocks or bonds, however, my index funds are doing great.

Homes in my area are appreciating 30-40k per year.

This is what was happening in the housing bubble.

It's phenomenal to be part of it.

Didn't once-distinguished Newsweek sell for $1 a few years ago? Perhaps this is why.

The latest LOL-worthy Newsweek headline:

HOW MURDERER CHARLES MANSON AND DONALD TRUMP USED LANGUAGE TO GAIN FOLLOWERS

Trump is probably Time Magazine's Person of the Year ...

However, Trump turns them down , saying "probably" isn't good enough.

For the love of, the Time "Person of the Year" is not an honorary award, it is 'an annual issue of the United States news magazine Time that features and profiles a person, a group, an idea, or an object that "for better or for worse... has done the most to influence the events of the year"'(from the Person of the Year: 75th Anniversary Celebration issue). Keep in mind other individuals or groups on it are varied, and include Pierre Laval, FDR, Wallis Simpson, Stalin, Khrushchev, Queen Elizabeth, Hungarian freedom fighters, Nixon, baby boomers, Ayotollah Khomeini, Deng Xiaoping, the Endangered Earth, and user-generated content. And, why the concern about being on a magazine cover anyway, form what I can tell print is dying out.

Don't worry. I'm sure there are plenty of grad students in China who would love to become the leaders in innovation.

They told me if Donald Trump was elected president, racists would come out of the closet and up from the sewers and be spewing open racism all through society -- and they were right!

This woman is a registered nurse at a university hospital:

Also, she works in pediatrics (helping infants and children), and she's talking about sacrificing them to wolves.

She’s some idiot off the Internet, seeking to have fun with people.

This does not represent the majority opinion of black women liberals.

I wouldn’t formulate opinions based on the above idiot.

given that most shooters are white males, she makes about as much sense as the muslim ban. i think that's the point she is trying to make.

I get the sense that she was trying to be clever. I bet it was a reply. Who ends a philosophical statement with "b***h?"
