What's a life lesson you learned the hard way that you'd want to share with others to help them avoid the same mistake?

  • Yeah, I can't argue with that. I try to avoid funds that have significant investment in weapons manufacturers. If a person's needs require a minimum level social and/or environmental awareness, there are tools in the Fidelity research system that show that kind of thing. This may be limited to specific stocks and not funds though. I can only speak about Fidelity since that is my only point of experience.

    • How do you sit through an airplane flight without excruciating pain?

  • I've never been on a long (trans ocean) flight with a major airline that charged for water.

    Jump

  • I don't if the flight is long and it is bigger aircraft (two aisles: A350, 787, A380, 777, etc). I try to be up and moving around as much as possible. No booze. Eat light if at all. Drink water.

  • Don't get fat. It is so hard to lose weight once you get over 40 years of age because you are fighting a reduced metabolism.

  • Investing even relatively small amounts of money monthly or weekly into an indexed mutual fund or similar at a young age should result in substantial growth and returns over 30 years or so.

    • What's your opinion about adding chicory to coffee?

    Jump

  • If I'm making New Orleans style Cafe au lait then sure. If I am trying to make some bad beans more drinkable then sure. But if I have some really good single origin light roast beans that are excellent on their own then no way.

    • what would happen if a rogue, earth-size planet ran straight into the sun? anything interesting?

    • How much do Americans actually pay for healthcare?

    Jump

  • Consider that most Americans are pay 2x to 5x more in insurance premiums each month than folks in the 32 other developed nations with national healthcare coverage pay monthly in taxes for health care. Consider that Americans still pay deductibles and copays. Consider that insurance won't cover pre-existing conditions (which are many). Consider the insurance frequently denies claims and requests for further tests and specialists. Consider that most insurance only works within the limited network of the insurance companies designated healthcare providers.

    I work a multinational company that has moved staff from Japan, Canada, and the UK to the USA for periods of work. All of these folks were shocked and horrified by the American insurance system.

    • I remember a time where you would get multiple results from a search with no scrolling

  • Exactly. I've been using DDG for years now and when I have to use Google search for whatever reason, I am quickly reminded how crap ggl is.
