UK Cities Completely Berserk! “Everyone just Wants to Escape”
You know that in America people are racing to escape the city. But the USA isn't alone. Residents of London and other UK cities are looking to escape as well. Many are heading to Wales, where property is relatively inexpensive. Carol Peett, managing director of West Wales Property Finders told the Wall Street Journal's Ruth Bloomfield that “It has gone completely berserk here. Everyone just wants to escape.” Sound familiar? Bloomfield writes: With 870 miles of coastline and more than 1,500 square miles of national parkland, Wales, a country smaller than New Jersey, punches far above … [Read more...]
Dr. Mercola: Did Lockdowns Cause More Harm Than Good?
When COVID-19 hit America, blue state governors went wild. They locked down everything and anything that might look like economic activity. It hasn't gone well for their states, where unemployment is extremely high. Look at their unemployment rates: Massachusetts (17.4%) New Jersey (16.6%) New York (15.7%) Nevada (15%) California (14.9%) Michigan (14.8%) Illinois (14.6%) Hawaii (13.9%) Pennsylvania (13%) Delaware (12.5%) These governors worked hard to protect the rich while stealing the economic future of many middle-class Americans. The crazed response by … [Read more...]
Going Up to the Country: Real Estate Heads out of Town
You have decided to escape the city, and now you're looking for what Laura Forman at The Wall Street Journal calls "location, location, isolation." She writes: Real-estate searches are looking a lot different lately. For years, home values have been greatly influenced not only by finished square footage and acreage, but also by walk scores and community. The pandemic is turning those factors on their head—at least for now. Airbnb, for example, is now touting its ability to enable users to work from anywhere, no matter how remote, after years of inviting its guests to “live like a … [Read more...]
Blue State Politicians Focus more on Ideology than Their States’ Economic Success
Blue State governors have gone wild, and they have driven their states to the highest unemployment rates in the nation. Look at the damage governors of blue states have caused, with unemployment in many of them in the mid-to-high-teens: Massachusetts (17.4%) New Jersey (16.6%) New York (15.7%) Nevada (15%) California (14.9%) Michigan (14.8%) Illinois (14.6%) Hawaii (13.9%) Pennsylvania (13%) Delaware (12.5%) Draconian shutdown measures and a refusal to do anything about the riots and looting that are tearing their constituents' cities apart have driven many … [Read more...]
Survive and Thrive September 2020: Proud to be an American: Pro-Trump Parade Turns Rhode Island Red
Dear Survivor, For a few precious hours Sunday, hundreds of boats gathered under the Newport, RI bridge to begin a massive Pro-Trump boat parade to celebrate our love for country and concern for where it’s going. As we powered up the bay, sounding our horns, waving flags, and simply enjoying the flotilla, we were fired up in anticipation of seeing the crowds at Colt State Park. Thousands lined the shore waving flags and cheering as the parade went by. You felt the love for your fellow Americans. It was a special day for my family and for all of those who turned out in Rhode Island: a … [Read more...]
Sen. Rand Paul Escapes Mob Attack, Gets Back to Work
As they left the White House after President Trump's RNC acceptance speech, Sen. Rand Paul and his wife Kelley were surrounded and harassed by an angry mob of BLM/Antifa protesters. Paul was shielded from the mob by brave police officers who were attacked when they put their own bodies between the aggressors and the senator. In his latest update, Paul thanked the many Americans who have sent him well-wishes. He wrote: Dear Friend, I want to thank the many who have sent kind words and well wishes after my wife, Kelley, and I were surrounded by a mob of protestors outside the White House … [Read more...]
Warren Buffett and the Power of Time
You have read here about the power of compounding, and patience. Both are functions of time. Warren Buffett calls investing over a long time horizon the "Methuselah Technique." Jason Zweig reports in the Wall Street Journal: This Sunday, Warren Buffett turns 90. The chairman of Berkshire Hathaway Inc. BRK.B -0.18% is one of the most successful investors of all time, having amassed a net worth estimated at $82 billion. Yet he accrued nearly 90% of that sum after the age of 65. Investing well is important, but investing well for a long time matters even more. “I’ve long recommended,” … [Read more...]
Trump 2020 Fireworks Light Up the Night
Now that’s how you do fireworks. As “Trump 2020” lit up the Washington Monument last night after an excellent speech by the President, it was hard not to sit there in awe and think about the decision facing Americans in November. It’s simple. You have a fighter who will continue to build upon a career of building things vs. a 47-year career politician who hasn’t built a thing and sits in his basement while cities are looted and burned to the ground. In Trump, you have an American can-do attitude that will Keep America Great vs. the cancel culture that will erase our past and welcome in … [Read more...]
