Tariffs

Yep. We are a small family-owned company and are incorporated.

Yep, me too. I suspect Punxs has zero real life experience with owning and running a small business.

News alert - we face the same endless rules, regulations and taxes as Apple. Keeping what I make is a ******* battle.

I think many people have no experience in this area. When I was just running the company I thought I did everything, Then I started my own and found out I was wrong

Thankfully my sister, who has a masters degree, handles the financial / accounting part of our company. I don’t have the patience or know how for that ****. I just sell, hire and fire. And I love it. I’ve gotta say, once you fire someone for the first time it’s kind of addicting. Back in the day when I had a stack of applications I used to hope someone would **** up so I could fire them. Today we can barely find employees so I don’t have that luxury anymore.

What is your hangup with corporations? Almost every small business is incorporated to protect the business owners from liability and for tax benefits. You should research something called "S" corporations.



You should tell the Fed and Congress.

fify .....and the EU central banks that can access Fed money without needing US approval.

No, he’s not.
That’s the problem with liberal scum.

He roots against this country just so he could say he was right about Trump.

Tell me you don’t have any retirement savings without actually telling me you don’t have any retirement savings.
 
Tell me you don't know how to manage your on 401K.
1 year I'm plus 5% , YTD I'm -4% . Not a huge loss at all. I also purchased a additional 15,000 worth of stocks when it bottomed. I'm about 5-7 years away from retirement. The sky isn't falling.

Same here. The left and their willing accomplice, MSM, want everyone to believe that their financial wellbeing is centered on solely on the Dow Jones, to instill panic.
If your retirement portfolio is entirely in the market, that maybe true, but if you have more that 2 brain cells, you spread your money around.

This is where having a good relationship with your financial advisor comes into play. Mine suggested moving some funds into gold in January and it's up over 30% today.

I have a couple of IRA accounts.

Tell me you know nothing about economics and how the market works without actually telling me you don't understand it.

It is a great time for retirement accounts as I am investing heavily in them while the market is down. I guess you wait for it to be up to invest? That would make sense for you.

He's doing the right thing, forcing the lesser economies that tarrif (and thereby harm) our merchants and sales to get rid of them, allowing fair trade. He is also encouraging foreign companies to open plants here, giving us more jobs.

I support this.

Sorry to hear that Berm. Budgets are tightening corporate wide, and even my Covid proof company is putting spending restrictions in place. I have faith that you'll find something soon though. You're a purity smart feller.

Sorry to hear the news Berm.
Now that you are a FA, I hope you can find a new position quickly.

It seems like there will be a re-organization of many corporate priorities over the next while.

Lets hope other companies come to understand and embrace Trump’s 4D chess before Fed Chair Powell does.
