The past 2 days they did a combined 10000 and pretty much have already burned through the truck delivery they had yesterday. Then had to go to Walmart to pick up our order and had to make a detour to another place because Walmart was all out of meat. Definitely crazy. PA also closed their schools for at least 2 weeks. We told our high school students to take everything with them on Friday. It definitely was an interesting week.

I have a great many friends in the beer business, as well as hospitality in general. I support what DeWine is doing, but I certainly worry for my friends. I'm happy to be retired, but that means my age puts me in the vulnerable category. I have two close friends who are recovering from major surgeries, and now I can't visit them. If golf courses are open I don't know if I'll go play. My teacher already postponed my lessons. I want to take the bike out for a long ride tomorrow, but many are saying it's irresponsible to participate in an activity that might cause an injury that requires medical treatment. Damn!

sixcat Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 Admittedly, I didn't consider human impact on others, especially the elderly or those with compromised immune systems, when taking the stance that this is being grossly overblown. I still believe the mass hysteria to be overblown but fully understand, certain precautions need to be made to lessen the spread and impact on our healthcare system and protect the vulnerable among us. To put it simply, we have to "flatten the curve!" With that said, my neighbor decided to host a "doomsday" party that lasted from early Saturday afternoon through the late-night hours last night. We counted between 60 and 70 people at this party, not that my family attended. I cannot stand my neighbor and remind him often (when he gets out of line) of his impact on our small community. For a little backstory on my clueless neighbor. In 1972, he was drag-racing his friend, drunk on a residential street. The friend hit and killed an 11-year old boy named WK Dees. The friend was convicted of involuntary manslaughter and driving under the influence. He was sentenced to 3 years in prison but released on probation without serving a single day. My neighbor walked away scot-free. Fast forward to 1988, while drag-racing again on a residential street, my neighbor hit and killed an 11 year old boy named Sammy Brown who was riding his bicycle in his neighborhood while drag-racing the same guy mentioned above. Sammy was my Little League baseball teammate that summer. My neighbor served less than 2 years of a 5 year prison sentence and has been out ever since. He continues to drink heavily, drive often and lacks basic human decency. The house he currently owns is in the same subdivision as the sister of his first victim! Needless to say, this asshat has terrible judgement! https://scholar.lib.vt.edu/VA-news/ROA-Times/issues/1993/rt0393/930329/03290018.htm https://www.dailypress.com/news/dp-xpm-19890331-1989-03-31-8903310081-story.html Rant over!

The only advice I’m taking and giving myself regarding long-term investments is to play the long game. My accounts are “set it and forget it.” That said, small adjustments to preserve wealth for those near or in retirement is prudent. I am far from a financial expert but I can say one thing with confidence and that is nobody has ever timed proper entry and exit points between bull and bear market. I read yesterday that our economy is near 70% dependent upon consumer spending. We’re going to hit the teens again and it will hurt for a bit but it’s also an opportunity to buy-in on retirement accounts for a discount. It will rebound, history is a great teacher.

JonMUSC08 Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 Yea, if you've got time to build wealth, set aside some money and plan to invest this month. Buying bluechip stocks or stocks of GOOD companies will pay massively in the next 5-10+ years when we return to a stable economy and all this is behind us. bens197, fixyurdivot, Rickp and 2 others 5 Charleston, SC HDCP 13.0 Driver: M6 9* with 65g Stiff Mitsubishi Tensei Red shaft 3 wood: G425 stiff shaft 5 wood: Stealth 2 stiff shaft 4-gw irons: JPX 921 Hot Metal w/ X-stiff KBS 130gr shafts (soft stepped) Wedges: MG3 52, 56, 60 Putter: 34" Scotty Cameron 12.5 Ball: ProV-1x Tracked By: MGS Tester '20 - G710 Iron Review MGS Tester '19 - Precision Pro NX9 HD Pro laser rangefinder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golfspy_CG2 Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 1 hour ago, bens197 said: The only advice I’m taking and giving myself regarding long-term investments is to play the long game. My accounts are “set it and forget it.” That said, small adjustments to preserve wealth for those near or in retirement is prudent. I am far from a financial expert but I can say one thing with confidence and that is nobody has ever timed proper entry and exit points between bull and bear market. I read yesterday that our economy is near 70% dependent upon consumer spending. We’re going to hit the teens again and it will hurt for a bit but it’s also an opportunity to buy-in on retirement accounts for a discount. It will rebound, history is a great teacher. Yeah, I'm in the closer to than further away to retirement spectrum, maybe 6 years if I'm lucky. But I feel that's still enough time to make a good recovery.

cnosil Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 Yeah, I'm in the closer to than further away to retirement spectrum, maybe 6 years if I'm lucky. But I feel that's still enough time to make a good recovery. I am in the 10 year range and I am staying the course and hoping for correction over those years. We have good and bad years and even with this drop I am still on the positive return side.

Middler Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 Some people aren't taking this as seriously as they should, and others have completely lost perspective (hoarders). If we'd all be thoughtful and considerate of others (especially the older/health compromised folks at greater risk) we could reduce the impact, but I have no illusion that "we" collectively will do that. Tough times bring out the best in some people, and the absolute worst in others - but isn't that always the case. Leaders are between a rock and hard place, some are handling it as well as we could reasonably expect and others are making a mess of things. With some media asking brain dead unanswerable questions that just stoke fears, also par for the course these days. yungkory and Rickp 2 Titleist TSR2 11° HZRDUS Red CB 50 6.0 w Lamkin UTx Midsize Titleist TSR2 16.5º HZRDUS Red 60 CB 6.0 & TSR2 21º HZRDUS Black 4G 70 6.0 w Lamkin UTx Midsize Mizuno JPX923 HMP 4-GW, T22 54.12WS, T22 58.04DC w Lamkin ST+2 Hybrid Midsize Evnroll EV5.3 Maxfli Tour & ProV1 Ping Pioneer - MGI Zip Navigator AT Payntr X 002 LE, Ecco Biom C4, Payntr X 001 F (Mesh) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
