    Apolitical discussion (impossible?)

    I just keep hearing the sound bites that Canada is charging 250% tariffs on US imports of dairy etc and we are going to do the same. But after looking into it, Canada's tariffs are quota based and the US is not even hitting that quota so no one is really even paying it. So while part of purpose...

    Apolitical discussion (impossible?)

    Tariffs. Do people actually understand how they work? Latest example is Canada but does anyone know why no one is paying 200% on anything?

    EV/Plug-in/Other vehicles

    Tesla deliveries in Europe falling. Competition outside the US is tough from Chinese EVs and Elon antics not helping. They probably should have done the Model 2 instead of the CT.

    President Trump

    I like this discussion of global dynamics vs partisan politics. This is very interesting. I thought the mining deal was done. Did something change?

    President Trump

    And before you think I am being anti-Trump, I am just saying that televised conversation was hard to watch. I saw this take about the mineral deal on X and if truly Trump's plan, it's interesting: We know the reasons why some don't want Ukraine in NATO so not sure if this mineral deal will...

    President Trump

    Let's put the partisan feelings aside... that Zelensky/Trump/Vance discussion was rough. I feel bad for Ukraine, lost some respect for Vance... Trump was Trump. That was some crazy reality TV.

    Apolitical discussion (impossible?)

    Why are eggs so expensive but chicken is still cheap? I googled the answer, you can eat adult bird flu... just kidding.

    Housing Analysis

    9 months later and still crazy pricing and low inventory. I would sell but waiting for my cousin to prove his tax saving schemes work. :)

    President Trump

    I'm sure you've heard about the $400m purchase from Tesla that started under Biden, turns out that wasn't the truth and somebody change the numbers: https://www.npr.org/2025/02/24/nx-s1-5305269/tesla-state-department-elon-musk-trump It's okay, like morekaos says, everyone does it... but I...

    Any K-Pop Dance camps for the summer?

    Used to be a place called K-Pop Center in The Source Buena Park that ran programs for training K-Pop dancing and singing for all ages (and ran auditions for various companies). They recently closed that program but I still think they do auditions there. On Stage in Anaheim has some programs but...

    Orchard Hills 4 - "The Summit" Updates

    Lofts are great. When your kids have friends over, you can still have a space to watch movies or lounge without having to use your bedroom.

    Credit card and/or Apple Cash for teens?

    Remember the days where any one in college could get a Discover card? I think I got a Six Flags MC card thinking I could use all those points for free tickets... never used them once and then they canceled that particular card and I don't remember what I did with the points. A friend of mine...

    Credit card and/or Apple Cash for teens?

    Add them to your credit cards if you can. Points for you and I think it builds their credit. Also... prevents fraud vs those bank ATM cards that can be accepted as MC/Visa.

    Like Kind Exchange / Cap Gains Exclusion / Old rollover rule

    My cousin is still trying to game the system. So now he said his friend did some trust thing where they put the house in a trust, sold it and as long as they keep the money in the trust, no tax until they withdraw from it? I think he's spending too much time on TikTok. I think I know who this...

    If you are a single making enough to afford these homes, then you're not a real baller if you only have a 2car garage. :)
