re: What will this board look like when Biden takes Trump to school?
Posted by ShermanTxTiger on 5/16/24 at 8:21 am
It will likely be over when Trump asks Biden if he really meant what he said when he told Erin Burnett inflation was at 9% on his first day in office.
Either Biden admits to being a liar or he is called out for being delusional. That should be a mic drop. ...

I think he will be jacked up on ADHD meds but will become aggitated when people start poking holes in our economic record. He will try to defend it with lies and will be called out. When that happens he will lose his crap because he is high on speed.
It will be a disaster for him but Trump will t...

We have roughly 6 population centers in La.
1- NOLA
2- BR
3- Lafayette
4- Shreveport
5-Lake Charles
6- Monroe
Let's create districts around those cities then. I wonder how that will turn out? ...

Retirement investment options and expected return
Posted by ShermanTxTiger on 5/10/24 at 12:42 pm
I am about to retire and wonder if anyone here has crossed over that beautiful bridge. If so, what does your portfolio look like? Annuities? (Not a personal fan of annuities) What is the expected rate of return on investments?
