• It’s a lot of common sense but it helps to have someone to look up to.

• The comments are always better than any article in the wsj. Right now the majority are voters who voted for our current president and enjoy disparaging him in their comments.

• How true. I missed the last step at home two months ago and hurt my ankle. It still hurts and the doctor says it will heal and I didn’t fracture anything. I’m thankful for that because I walk 5-7 miles a day and I can’t imagine not being able to go out and walk. As I said I’m very grateful it wasn’t worse.

• Really? How do you account for the following and it’s just one of the companies. Did this create better healthcare for the average UHC customer? UnitedHealth Group's net profit over the past 10 years has been significant, reaching an estimated $170 billion to $180 billion when summing its net income from 2015 through 2024. For example, its net income was $15.4 billion in 2020, $17.285 billion in 2021, $20.639 billion in 2022, $23.144 billion in 2023, and approximately $14.405 billion in 2024.

• i agree so much with what you wrote especially about education. If it was up to me I would have skipped college but thanks to my mother’s insistence, I did go and like you I got my Econ/accounting degree. My mother said to me that we came to this country for you to educate yourself not to work in restaurants. for young people I have advice that I wish someone would have given me:

  1. take care of your teeth
  2. watch what and how much you eat and drink
  3. develop an exercise program and stick to it

• I think what you describe is why most people refuse to learn more about investing.
