I was looking at stocks yesterday and one looked particularly downtrodden, New York Community Bank, some of it likely on general banking sector woes. The price was so low the div rate was over 10%. Probably not sustainable for long, unless the price comes back up.
I figured it was worth getting some at that price (under $6.50/Sh) even if they decided to cut the dividend in half; looks like there’s more upside possible than downside risk.
Overnight the news broke that NYCB reached an agreement to buy out Signature’s assets and existing loans, causing the price to shoot over $9 for much of the day today so far.
Seems my story is that I’m often a day late. And a couple of dollars short.
Guess I’ll wait to see if it drops a bit mid-week…
Once I had BTC worth 50 USD given by a friend for building his website. During that time BTC was around 20k USD I think. Within a very short time it went up to 65k, and I had set it to sell at 60k. Anyway it tripled my 50usd. Then it was in usdt, and I think I later bought another coin. Not sure.
Unfortunately I had no way of cashing it. It should still be there now may be not even worth 50 . I tried to give it to someone free, and he thought I was trying to trick him.
The bottom line is: it’s just numbers. It doesn’t matter what the number is.
I had some some dollars of Bitcoin leftover from erm…“a seed purchase” a few years ago, and then got nervous along with others a year or so ago and cashed out (which took some doing).
Man! Right time in and right time out! Too bad I didn’t have more than the “some” dollars!

Nice!
I had some guys trying to ge me into Bitcoin when it was around $20 per share. I decided not to and that’s one of my big regrets. Damn. I could have turned a $10K investment into $20 million.
Sucks to be me.
Yeah, I know (both for this and prior post) = First World Problems!
The biggest income is earned by the YouTube gurus who teach you how to trade cryptocurrency. And they post an affiliate link too, which gives them a commission for a lead. Much profitable than actual crypto trading.
The results of the final exam of the National Tourist Guide Lecturer license course is out. I have passed it, no repeat modules.
Now I must get a police clearance certificate and apply for the national guide identity card. It might take another month.
Little by little I’m getting there. One step at a time.
Great relief this is.
Thanks everyone. More than anything else, the boarding, meal, and travelling costs are almost over. One last time I must find around 50 dollars as the license fee, and that’s all.
Then I must look for an agent who needs my service. Anyway I’m planning to get my own groups here rather than working for someone else.

Who’s got the power to play with the master headline banner? @sck? @hungryonion?
So it was to be the final step of getting the license. To hand over the certified copies of the documents. I prepared them, checked them, and handed them over. They checked them and accepted.
At 7.10pm I get a call, "your national ID copy is not ‘true copy’ certified!
I must go there tomorrow. It never ends.
