Expat planning to move someplace else in a couple years maybe?

Just another case of privatizing gains and socializing losses. A tale as old as America itself.

I tend to view smoking as having a bit more direct of an influence. A doctor can for instance look at a smoker's lung and see signs of damage that directly correlates to smoking. I…

You obviously know nothing about the folks at wallstreetbets. It's not just a bunch of random people doing pump and dumps. Their methods and DD might be questionable at times but t…

I've had 2 surface books so far and one surface tablet and never had these problems. I did however break the screen of my surface tablet, but I dropped it off the roof of my car af…

Currencies fluctuate against demand in the foreign exchange market, not against each other. Governments then step up to stabilize that demand. Bitcoin doesn't have that support so …

Please humor me as to where this fictional place is. If you're born in a place you will have a birth certificate and can get documents to prove you are supposed to be there. I've n…

H1-B visas are dual intent visas. What you're saying isn't quite accurate.

The H1-B visa is a dual intent visa. There is no announ inc immigration intent with a wink. It's literally written into the law that it is ok to do so. I won't argue whether that's…

Imagine announcing something like immediate war against china. Chilling to think about

You wouldn't need to gain any money directly for the tweet. Load up put options and fire off Trump tweets in your favor during market hours. You'll make orders of magnitude more th…

Had it lasted longer with every commute being uphill, OP would have ended up atop Mount Everest in short order

No we certainly won't stand by zoom. They're possibly worst than Facebook with regards to user privacy and controls

Amazon makes substantially more from AWS than its retail segment. Retail revenue is higher but revenue does not equal profit. For instance last quarter AWS revenue was 13% compares…

China closed and outlawed wet markets after the 2003 SARS outbreak. They opened them back up shortly after the outbreak was over. Humans on a whole have a short memory for things l…

I'll respectfully beg to differ here. A small app with a few functions at a small company, I completely agree. But once you have a large scale system you'll thank your lucky stars …

There are a lot of devices that use old versions of Windows that are critical and can't be patched Willy nilly such as critical medical devices.

I don't work for Apple but they have 200 billion in cash on hand. I doubt you'd be at any lower risk of being laid off at any other company all else being equal
