  1. i hear ya on picking up blue chips and companies like Nvidia.  my boss loves that stock.  He's recently dumped most of bonus and stock incentive money in it.  For a while he was down like 30% on it, but its rebounded nicely for him and he continues to buy more.

    ideally I'm looking to get to a nice level of dividend income to supplement my retirement money.  So for now i'm more focused on those stocks but hearing about some of these upcoming splits like tesla have me thinking about getting into that game.

     


  2. anyone dabble in new stocks these past few weeks?  i picked up more dividend paying stocks like MO and SPG and closed out positions on some dogs like pinterest and HUT 8 mining.  Now debating dumping my POWW stock since its been a dog for me.  any strategy to keeping it long term?  it doesn't pay a dividend, its 10 months off its high of $10.XX+ and has traded narrow between $4.5 and $5.5 for most of 2022 and analysts are now bearish on it.  

    let me know what you guys think.


  3. Had my Sig CW FCU come in today.  Went to heritage in Branchburg and did my NICS and asked about ammo...no common calibers in stock unless you wanted to pay $1/rd for .223.  
     

    older guy, been there for years told me that federal just hit them with a15% increase effective today and they stated another increase could come as early as June.  They cited Deman is just outpacing supply...

    No "free" money for me.

    No funds received yet, IRS "get my payment" can't tell me anything:

    "Payment Status - Not Available

    We are unable to provide the status of your payment right now because:

    We don't have enough information yet (we're working on this), or

    You're not eligible for a payment."

    Same...

    In my case all of my credits transferred to Seton Hall, a private school BTW, and I changed majors as well.

    Transferring to a four school that have a transfer agreements with CCM is not difficult. 

     

     

     

     

    This..you need to make sure the school has a transfer agreement with the CC you are attending.  If they do, they accept all credits and apply them towards a degree.  SHU was like that.  I took summer classes at RVCC since I needed 130 credits to graduate.  As long as they weren’t my last 30 credits they accepted them and applied towards my business degree.

    Back in ye olden days, you'd go down to the bookstore an buy a directory of grants and scholarships and start wading through them. They still sell them. 

    So true...

    The community college route is probably your best bet to save a significant amount of $ off a four year degree.  Having been in staffing for the better part of 20years, I can confirm that it’s not where you start the degree, it’s where you finish.

    another option, is to speak with college prep counselors, they’re often a paid service but may help with initial plans and possible leads on grants.

    lastly, get to know the bursar at the school.  I worked in the bursar office while at SHU, and that saved me 1000s.  I got to learn about various grants like the pell grant and other nj based ones. Secondly, they are often very good friends with the FA office and can recommend you for school based grants.  Again, they might be small amounts, but they do add up.


  7. With the weather warming up, is anyone getting the itch to play yet?

    I took my oldest for a lesson at Neshanic Learning Academy this past Sunday and now I have the bug to play.  Since its becoming costly to shoot as frequently as I'd like, I've started surfing golf sites looking at new irons and bags.   Crazy how a set of high end clubs is now the same price as 2 cases of 9mm...
