  1. While you can find a few news articles online about stock market recovery, the mainstream media is less boisterous about its recovery than it is when it dips or crashes.
  2. @Tortuga @Shawnster, I think you misunderstood what I said. I didn't find the photoshopped picture Trump posted of himself dressed like the pope funny, either. I found it upsetting, insensitive, and offensive. When I said, “It was a joke,” I was referring to my original comment, where I said, “Something tells me he wasn’t joking.” I said that because of Trump’s personality (for lack of a better word). I'm sure people kissing him, taking photo ops, and the unlimited adoration that the pope receives would be a dream come true for him.
  3. I agree. Kind of off subject, but no other part of that prophecy sticks out more to me in these last days than “lovers of themselves.” With the advent of social media, this has really become apparent. #selfie, #selfie. You scroll on apps like Instagram and see so many people who post as if to say look at me, look at how beautiful I am, or look at my muscles. You click on some peoples page and they literally don't have pictures of other people, places and experiences. It’s just full of pictures and videos of them. It really is sad.
  4. I think satan, in recent years, has purposely seen to it that presidents, Prime Ministers, etc, are put in office to tempt Jehovah’s servants to lose their neutrality. In seems like in times past many presidents were put in office that were considered to have likeable personalities. But now satan has put people in place that he knows is going to cause vitriol and division.
  5. Lately, I’ve been trying to get out of the habit of saying worldly. I think about how those who don’t know Jehovah would feel if they heard it. I try to say “those who don’t know Jehovah, or those who don’t know Jehovah yet”, holding out hope for them. It helps to say this even when talking with friends or family and there’s no non-Witnesses around. This helps me to get into the habit of saying it.
  6. I'm not surprised Greene said that. I've seen her say some nasty stuff. I don't agree with a lot of things Francis has said and done, but that's downright cowardly and heartless to say something like that after he has died, especially while his family is still mourning. That says a lot about her.
  7. That's great. I didn't post it in response to anything you said, though. Just came across the video last night and thought it was a great idea.
  8. I was just talking about this the other day and came across this video. I'm going to post the link instead of paste the video because they guy uses some language that could be seen as offensive. No profanity though. I feel just the way he does. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0qQh9sRK5as
  9. You’re right. Which is why I don't go by the 3 to 6 months savings of living expenses rule. I think its a good starting point or minimum. But I think its good to have larger cash reserves for bigger emergencies like replacing a vehicle or something financially similar. I'm not saying a person needs to save tens of thousands before they start investing. But perhaps they can start after hitting a minimum of 3 to 6 months of expenses while continuing to save extra money instead of putting it all in the stock market.
  10. That's why I prefer to keep more than the 3 to 6 months living expenses rule. I have 7 years worth of living expenses saved up. Some would say that's excessive, but I prefer to have plenty of cash on hand for large expenses that could pop up (and I’ve had quite a few in the past 2 years) or for things like this, a great investment opportunity.
