once more do we meet in this place!
Because I’m not sure everyone just take 100% of dividends and reinvested all of it in stocks .
Like I said u can go all in and just invest stock if u think it’s right .
I certainly wouldn’t .
As for houses, yes u save rent but u spend a lot of that rent money saved to sustain your house health .
The difference in the end is usually just the cash u bought the house with (and the added appreciation or should I say the depreciation of the value of cash).
Now if u speak about a Plex it’s a different mat
No one is arguing that you should only invest in stocks, what kind of strawman is that? Anyone following a basic investment strategy who isn’t just a degen stonks gambler would tell you that you should diversify your portfolio, including some holding of property and possibly some precious metals.

There u go …
I was responding to the concept of investing in gold was a bad investment.
this makes absolutely no sense. rate of return is 10% per year on investments in s&p 500. Compare the price of gold from 1929 to now.
Like I’m sorry but gold is a horrible investment for pure suckers. The only people making money on gold are jewelers and gold stores that charge you a percent off of market price and resell off market price.
Yeah it’s an ok investment if you are already a multimillionaire and you want to diversify your portfolio. But the idea that you should have more than a few percent of your net worth in gold is what I was arguing against.
Fair enough though I would walk back that statement a little to say, for the vast majority of retail investors gold is not a good investment.
Nice run DK

Here til I’m out of Monster Stack (mid-June) and then taking a break. Will prob come back before Main Event if I’m doing well. Staying home if I suck it up. Good start so far. Staying at Horseshoe.
Well I live here, so yeah. No events, but can be often found at the Bellagio 20 and 40 if anyone wants to put money behind all that constructive criticism!!
Question to those playing in a casino where you can post between: do you take that option or do you just take the bb? Or do you do the spicy option of posting behind the button?
I used to post between, then moved to posting in the CO, now I only take the bb instead of the first two option. I find posting in the CO gets into too many low ev wide situations so I don’t do that much anymore. Of course, the bb is just a losing spot in general so I’m open to being wrong about that.

I slightly prefer posting in between to posting in the BB, particularly in a room where they let you chop 3 ways if it’s folded to the three blinds. I strongly prefer both options to posting in the CO.

Usually when this comes up most agree posting between is slightly better with posting CO and BB about the same. I think there might be some additional value in posting CO if the players don't understand just how wide you are, but seems like a lot of people have figured that out by now. This of course ignores the best strategy, which is straddling in UTG to create an image that gets paid off later.
I can 't remember the last time I was required to post to get a hand.
Does the 40/80 at Bellagio go pretty much 24/7, or are there peak hours that it runs?
