I have given a $40 Trader Joes card at Christmas before.

The Japanese did the same things in the 80s.

I'd love to hear more about how you made your money in the stock market IE. what did you primarily invest in, day trader?

We may have a Japanese style or Carter style stagflation or we may have a good amount of inflation that would be tied to a more robust recovery.

I live in Japan with my Japanese husband.

In just the past month, I have looked at two 30-35 year old buildings which are cheap, stick-built, minimum code, buildings which appear as though they were designed to be discarded after 30 - 50 years service {a very Japanese approach to building}.

Another time, when I worked at Sun Microsystems, I remember a Chinese Ph'd type printing reems of financial data on the company printer in order to become a successful day trader instead of doing his job.

Also, offer to trade rent for paint etc.

I am very bubbly and pleasant open to talking to people (even when I am nervous)Things I like to do (when not super charged on building extreme wealth)-Watch Japanese anime and Read Manga books-Go outside to the parks and walk-Go fishing-chill with my friends and family-and study concepts of finance, economics, tax law and business & wealth building ( i really do this with my spare time too lol )Things I'd love to try doing-Go camping some more-Go indoor rock climbing-go Kayaking!

And lastly, bond traders were betting that Friday's employment data would be stronger than expected.All of the above caused mortgage rates to hit their highest levels in three years.And then the much anticipated Non-Farm Payroll (NFP) data hit on Friday.The market was expecting a reading in the range of 175K to 181K with "whisper numbers" above 190K.
