People don't understand that the prices of things are never going back down. This inflation is deeper than we think. Those buying groceries are well aware that the real inflation is much over 10%. The increments don't match our income, yet certain investors still earn over $365,000 in stocks and assets. Wish I could accomplish that...

Very possible! especially at this moment. Profits can be made in many different ways, but such intricate transactions should only be handled by seasoned market professionals.

Having an investment advisor is the best way to go about the stock market right now. I was going solo, but it wasn't working. I've been in touch with an advisor for a while now, and just last year, I made over 80% capital growth minus dividends.

I'm surprised that you just mentioned and recommend Mr Jeff Clark. I met him at a conference in 2018 and we have been working together ever since.

Oil at $70 a barrel is a good price but the price at the pump reflects a $130 a barrel, so when it does hit that $130 mark, pump price will be $9 a gal.

Twit. CO2 is necessary for life on this planet.

[@bobwiley6221]

I guess they forgot that plants produce oxygen and humans and animals need oxygen. But I think a lot of politicians don't need oxygen, they need power and money.

How do you know it’s not a renewable? Is it a coincidence that the US oil reserves are extremely low?
