Which is funny given the size of our two companies. Medtronic was the same way too. Just utter fucking garbage funds. I don't get why these companies don't just say, let's give our employees the best and offer vanguard". I don't understand how it costs them anything.

Our ceo had a company wide chat recently where they said were not doing comp adjustments for COL because inflation isn’t something our company sees as real…I am not kidding.

Lol, well they can enjoy the talent exodus they'll be seeing over the next 6-12 months then. They can replace them with a new crop of recent grad analysts at $50-60k/yr.
 
It's more than that, Scoob. It's literally publicly traceable. Imagine that for a dollar bill to be traded, you have to put your social security number on it. That's how crypto works.

Now, instead of a SS#, they use a wallet ID.

Exactly. There are some cryptos that are harder than others and they try and play up that they can't be traced but its all BS and most people who aren't WSB style dbags know that.

People trust the writers of TV shows too much. Whenever people discuss crypto or "The Dark Web" it is some of the funniest misinformation ever.

almost every government has the capacity to deal with crypto, and many do. (as we know countries have started using it as currency) If it wasn't easy to trace that would never be the case.
 
I serve on our retirement committee and we do so much work to be sure there is no way we can be sued for the options. Luckily it is an extremely well run program and has great options.

We actually vetoed having environmental friendly funds as they would violate our fiduciary responsibility to the employees and enforcement is at the whim of the what the current administration feels. Our lawyers cautioned against it due to...concerns for political change in the future.

This world is fucked...

As teachers we are automatically put into a fund but we have total control of what we do with it after it is started. When Biden won I put some in an environmental fund that I will flip back to the Vanguard and the annuity if and when things change.
 
Some companies to boycott until they withdraw from Russia.

Most relevant to US consumers: Subway, General Mills, Bridgestone, Amway, Bosch.

Otis: when you ride the elevator, you ride with Putin!

Lol. Bosch has like 15 months of full back orders. They have been refusing to take orders from retailers for a few months. You couldn't hurt them with a boycott if you tried.
 
Finally got one!!!

Dear Friend


It is with trust and confidence that i write to make this urgent business proposal to you. I was assigned by two of my colleague to seek for a foreign partner who will assist us in providing a convenient foreign account in any designated bank abroad for the transfer of Fifty two million seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars only pending on our arrival in your country for utilization and disbursement with the owner of the account.

This amount results from a deliberate inflation of the value of a contract awarded by our ministry, the Federal Ministry of Agriculture (F.M.A)to an expatriate company.the contract has been executed and payment made to the original contractor, remaining the over-invoiced amount of Fifty two million seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars only, which we want to transfer the funds out the country in our favour for disbursement among ourselves. The transfer of this money can only be possible with the help of a foreigner who will be presented as the beneficiary of the fund.

As government officials, we are not allowed to operate foreign accounts, and this is the reason why we decided to contact you. We have agreed that if you/your company can act as the beneficiary of this fund (Fifty two million seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars only)15% of the total sum will be for you for providing the account while 85% will be reserved for us.

We hereby solicit for your assistance in providing a convenient account number in a designated bank abroad where this fund would be transferred. We intend coming over there on the completion of this transfer to secure our own share of the money.

Please note that we have been careful and have made all arrangements towards the success and smooth transfer of the fund to your account before you. For security reasons and confidentiality of this transaction, we demand that you should not expose this proposal and the entire transaction to anybody.

We are putting so much trust in you with the hope that you would not betray us or sit on this money when it is finally transferred into your account. Be rest assured that this transaction is 100% risk free. If this proposal is acceptable to you,indicate your interest by sending a email to us including your bank name & address, account number,telephone number.

Note: our president Muhammadu Buhari collaborated with Ibrahim Magu as the new EFCC chairman, Economic Financial Crime Commission, Mr.Ibrahim Magu to stop the junior ranks officers from transferring funds out of the country. He sent different Cublication to many countries in the world as propaganda to discourage all government Officials from transferring funds into an overseas account to avoid and save guides the countries economy.

Apparently, so that other government officials will not benefits from these( oil windfalls venture) where he has been a culprit alone with his aides. More details about this transaction will be given to you as soon as we receive your positive respond.

Note that the particular nature of your company's business is irrelevant to this transaction. if this transaction interests you, your urgent response will be appreciated.

Yours faithfully,

Dr.Ken Obiorah

Wow, this is a genre of romance novels. One for every state. Minnesota:

Sarah, Bride of Minnesota is #32 in the unprecedented 50-book American Mail-Order Brides series.Sarah, along with one-hundred other women, is out of a job thanks to a fire in the factory where she's worked since she left school. At loose ends, she decides to become a mail-order bride, moving to Minnesota to marry a man she's never met. She trusts God to guide her steps and send her to the man who is right for her, but when she meets the stubborn German, she has to wonder at His sense of humor.

Karl, an immigrant who has fought hard to achieve everything he has in life, is startled when he meets his bride. In his mind, he'd pictured a homely woman who couldn't find a man any other way but through the mail, and instead he found himself face to face with a strong, funny woman. Would her strength and longing for romance keep them apart? Or would they find a way to compromise and make things work out?
