Things are Working out Well

 I have something going on with silver and Bitcoins. I buy as much silver as I can from a site on hibid. For some reason the price of large quantities of silver coins (commonly called "junk silver"). That means American coins minted before 1965, when they combined copper with the silver. I've been buying them for less than I can get from a dealer in Fort Dodge. 

That's making buying more Bitcoin possible. I then borrow against the Bitcoin at a low interest rate. It's a money machine. I'm doing great. 

I think I'll link something about silver, here.

Andy is quite the silver bull. I think he talks his book: he sell silver thru his company. 

Financial Toubles

 I overspent on an online auction and forgot about the electric bill and the cable bill automatically coming out of my account.

I was overdrawn by around $200. I transferred money from my Elastic account (a high cost lender) to the bank. It hasn't shown up yet but it will. 

I also am waiting for money from LEDN. It's a Bitcoin lender. Everything just takes too long. It's frustrating. 

I'll link something about Bitcoin lending, here. 

This is also an excuse to watch Natalie

Later.

My good art is at Rosie's

 I took my etchings and the good print to Rosie's coffee shop to sell. I hope it goes better than the garages sales. 

I think I'll link what I'm watching on YouTube.

Later

My Garage Sale is going Slowly

Nobody is interested in computers or wall art. That's about all that I have I'll give up buying that stuff, no matter how inexpensive I can get it. It's just a waste of time. 

I think I'll link something about silver, here.

Later

I'm being Phished

 Someone from Romania is trying to rob my Bitcoin. I've kept my money so far but it worries me.

I had $3,200 stolen last year and they are trying again. I think I'll link something about phishing. 

Later

I've got a conference with my shrink today.

 I'm hoping to make a case that my schizophrenia started in the Marine Corps. It did but the VA doesn't recognize it as service related. 

I'm asking my two readers to pray for me since it would help me out financially. I would be able to go back to college and get my degree; not to mention back pay and an increase in my benefits. 

I think I'll link something about the VA, here.

Later

I think I'll Link Natalie.

 She's undoubtably the best looking Bitcoin advocate of Bitcoin on YouTube.

Later

I borrowed against my Bitcoins.

 I signed up for a website named LEDN. I had troubles with it over the weekend. It's working now but I only got $500 for a $2000 collateral. Maybe I can borrow more, later.

I'll link something about Bitcoin, here.

Later

I Need to Sell Some Silver

 I bought a set of running boards for my Silverado. Now I have to sell some silver to pay for them. 

I'm over-extended. 

I'll go to Storm Lake when I get my latest silver purchase and sell a couple of hundred dollars worth. 

Maybe I could just borrow against the silver I have in Carroll, Iowa. I'll call tomorrow and see if I can do that. 

I think I've already asked about that and they only loan on cars or real estate. Maybe I could borrow against the car.  We'll see. 

I think I'll link a vlog about silver here.

I want to watch this myself.

I've Gotten a lot Done Today

 I've been picking up the house because Samantha is coming Monday to clean the house. I don't want it to be too messy. It looks a lot better.

I'm going to link a White House briefing.

Later

Is the Gold There?

 I doubt it. Of course, I'm talking about Fort Knox. Even if it's there I doubt that the United States owns it. It has probably been leased out. I'll link something about it, here.

I'm Watching Pomp interviewing an interesting Woman

 I think I'll link it here, if I can find it.

I found it.

Bonds are going down,

 Apparently the Japanese are selling our bonds, This is driving the coupon rate up and destroying the dollar, 

I don't find it too surprising; I've been expecting the dollar to collapse for some time now. 

I think I'll link Danille,

Later

The Market Keeps going Up.

The Dow went up over 2300 points. It's an outrageous number, I guess the tariff crisis is over. 

I think I'll link Turley's Vlog he's talking about trangender evil.

I couldn't find Turley's vlog, so I linked this.

Later

Apparently the Crash is Over

 The markets are leveling out. Yesterday reminded me of the Tuesday after "Black Monday" in 1987. It bounced up and down like crazy. 

I think I'll link Victor Davis Hanson. 

Later

It Looks like the Crash will Continue

I'm watching Steve Van Meter on YouTube, and he's going on and on about why the stock market crash will continue. 

I have delusions about saving the world's economy in 1987 under similar circumstances. I'd like to know if I'll get a phone call from the President tomorrow. We'll see. I doubt it. 

Anyway, I'll link Van Meter.

I got the damned oil changed

 I emptied the axle for the front wheel drive. I thought it was the oil drain. No harm was done. I'll just have to take it in for more oil. 

I'm in the middle of another 36-hour fast. Coffee hasn't helped much with the hunger pangs.

I think I'll link Chris, here.

I can't even change my own oil.

 I tried to change the oil on my Silverado and failed. Only 1 quart came out, and I couldn't find the oil filter. I'm going to take it to Pomp's tomorrow. It's severely sludged up.

I'll link something here.

He's got a good looking wife.

I`m Giving up on getting the touchpad working on the Chromebook.

I think I`ll link Elon on Fox News.

I'm Under 200 Lbs.

 I went on another fast this weekend and I lost a few pounds. I haven't weighed this little since the early part of my Marine Corps service.

I felt good today. I had more energy this afternoon than normal. 

On a different topic. I failed to repair my Chromebook. It has a bad touchpad. I thought it was a bad connection, but maybe it was
the touchpad itself. 

I'll link something here.

A Blizzard is Hitting

Later

I'm 24 hrs. into a 36 hr. fast.

 I'm not hungry and have lost about 4 pounds so far. I didn't think that fasting would be this easy. I had some hunger pangs before I went to bed, and I just drank water and coffee, and they went away.

I'll try to find the YouTube vlog that started me on this course. 

I think this was the vlog that started me fasting.

My Gambling Might be Expressing Itself in My Silver Buying

 I'm bidding more for silver coins than what I have in the bank. I think it's another form of gambling. I hope that someone else wins the auction. It's just sick.

Working on Cleaning the Garage

 I've been cleaning out my garage to use it for my new business. I will insulate it with "Great Stuff" the expanding plastic foam. I'm bidding on that at Ebay. It's not too expensive so I might buy it at the hardware store. After I get it somewhat insulated I'll have someone hang drywall on it. It should look good after a while. 

I'm also bidding on computers and printers online. I also get large screen tv's to use as monitors. That will be a big part of refurbishing them. 

Anyway. it's coming along.

Later

I Need to get busy on my Business

I must get busy moving things out of the garage and writing the business plan. I spend too much time drinking coffee and listening to the guys at the coffee club. It would be better to work on my business.

I Might be in Trouble with My Paypal Credit Card

A Lazy Sunday

 I didn't do much today. I fell asleep listening to the church service on Zoom. I swear that God reached down and bopped me on the top of my head to wake me up. 

It was a good sermon about the "Widow's Mite." I think I missed a lot of it. It's getting hard for me to stay awake because I'm 78 now.

I'll link something.

Later

I went to Des Moines today.

 I went to Des Moines to talk with someone in the VA about pursuing my disability claim.

It will take months, but I'm fairly optimistic about my chances of convincing a judge that I deserve a service-related disability. 

It took all day of running to and from Des Moines but it was worth it. I now have hope of getting a large disability. 

On a different story, LA is burning. It looks like it's going right through the city itself. Normally it's outskirts that burn.

I'll link something about it, here.

I haven't shown my etchings lately. I sold most of them but I could find one that I still have.

I think I'll also show a cartoon I really liked from long ago.

I don't know how to expand the cartoon but if you figure out how it's really funny.

It's a New Year

 Happy New Year. 

I haven't posted lately. I've just been lazy. 

Today I decided to start buying Bitcoin Cash and Bitcoin Gold as well as Bitcoin. They are hard forks from Bitcoin. I feel that we'll run out of Bitcoins to sell. Hence we won't be able to get any. I hope the forks last longer than Bitcoin.

I think I'll link something here about it
