War Room Lounge v110: I make money, they poo everywhere. All parties are happy.

i actually have a serious ? regarding those shady Senators that sold stocks....
i'm assuming the solution isn't just 'well b/c you know stuff, you can't sell and just eat the loss', so would the proper procedures have been to publicly warn everyone w/ that info? and THEN sell?

that way it's not 'insider trading'?

or is even merely having knowledge of an event preventing one from any smart financial strategy
edit: nevermind, just saw a full thread on the matter

National politicians should have their stocks simply in mutual funds. Not direct control of buying and selling specific companies

 

[CubicleGangster]

In true American fashion, you’ll butcher the pronunciation but still look really self satisfied.

Damn right I will

I only took French 1

 

[HockeyBjj]

It's also super hilarious that people are getting upset over derailments in the Corona thread

bruh, you're on Sherdog, not the CDC forum

1) you’re right

but 2) that thread has helped me stay in front of the average American on a lot of things. I owe my clean hiny to Sherdog

I keep beating the reaction rush by 2 or 3 days. In strength and conditioning I made a thread about best adjustable dumbbells to buy and got them. Now, they’re all sold out on amazon (although I went the 2” plate dumbbell handles route rather than bowflex adjustable or power blocks. Cheaper, heavier, and will save money whenever I get my proper gym garage after buying a home)

major corporations should be paying legit tax rates....

but reality isn't what we want it to be

i actually wonder about this, do they generally invest more in properties, equities, financing businesses through third parties, offshoring, etc...

 

[My Spot]

I didn't say it was constructive
i said it was hilarious. and it is

But think of the children!

tbf the War Room in general is actually a pretty legit source of news, largely due to the solid sourcing certain elite TS's do

even if someone comes in w/ some super biased source, there's always another w/ a different perspective or other valid source to counter

but i'd also be lying if i didn't say i enjoyed many comedic and off topic/derailing posts. That's what makes this entertaining, to me at least

I'm not sure how it works for Senators but for Public Companies they have designated trading windows where the legal department lets employees know when they can buy, sell and gift stock.

Trading outside of those windows will get you in trouble, or trading on any information that was not included in the publicly disclosed financial statements is illegal.

agreed. We have more than our fair share of tards, and even the legit posters will get into useless pissing matches at times, but a lot of good information ends up here that you wouldn’t otherwise see and a good community weeds out the bullshit and sometimes, sometimes, things get to a point of both making valid points on a situation and end agreeing to disagree for a reader to form their own conclusion off of.

 

[HockeyBjj]

What’d you do @PolishHeadlock2 ?

Apparently this was thread hijacking and/or off topic posting in the coronavirus thread

"I love how we now have a derogatory term in Flu Bros.

There are probably a ton of doctors that don't think we take the flu serious enough that are pissed off because they are the real Flu Bros who spend every season begging people to get the flu vaccine"

and it's not just this subforum
the NBA Thread has the most up to date news, generally in one place, of any basketball place I've ever encountered. And I've encountered a lot, i wrote both my master's Theses on basketball FFS

we got a few amateur Woj's up in there that stay up on all the action

I imagine the NHL/NFL/MLB threads are all similar; and i know the Premier thread stays busy too

 

[curryjunkie]

i wish we had it here, it looks badass
they sell them in Mexico oddly enough

its a well built, but fairly modest 4x4, not gonna win any points for comfort, but that aint its job,dirt cheap to run, theres vids online where it compares favourably offroad to really expensive offroaders, and it far less likely to break down and cost you an arm and a leg to repair. the new defender has 85 electronic control units....fuck.....that.....shit....the only major drawback is the jimnys size, americans prefer their off roaders to be the size of a main battle tank..

When I first read Polish's post I thought Harvey was like his son. Tbh it was still really believable, my cousin has a kid who is probably autistic and he does stuff like that all the time. Apparently she even organized her books according to the Dewey decimal system so it drives her mad when he throws them all off the shelf.

i read this wrong at first and thought, wow that's kind of cruel throwing the kid's books around just to get a laugh

I'm classy as fuck but a troll so I call it

grippe chinoise

+1 for "grippe" usage

 

[PolishHeadlock2]

It looks like anybody that used the term "Flu Bro" in the coronavirus thread is getting dubbs.

the best part is @Revolver liked the post after I got dubbed for it lol

I've seen some, apparently it's a really well built cheap offroader
i watch this British YT channel called CarWoW, it's the only reason i even know some of those models besides living in Germany from 09-13

that's just mild flaming to me, and totally acceptable given the actual derailments those flu bros were attempging
but i'm not a Mod, so i don't know the trends or precedence

I didn't even call anyone a flu bro though lol

I was just pointing out that the flu is actually pretty serious and people should take it more seriously.

I think I got collateral damaged on a mod search and destroy mission.

there's guys ranting about netflix in that thread.. we all got deleted for "derailing" when we questioned the fuckup that was early US response, the queen of copy paste herself was foaming at the mouth and dragged a mod in to remove us, meanwhile, all other presidents / prime ministers were slagged off ad nauseam, thats why you now have a seperate US coronavirus thread...
