<\/a><\/p>\nApple is on a tear. Hard to believe this will continue, though Fidelity says its P\/E is still only 18. Maybe take a little off the table?<\/p>\n
Both GoPro and Apple will do well this Christmas.<\/p>\n Today’s market will be strong. I nibbled at a little CST. Cramer’s idea. He was persuasive.<\/p>\n My stock research has led recently to blind alleys. It’s part of the game. My friend Ron Acher sent me a Warren Buffet quote:<\/p>\n The difference between successful people and very successful people is that very successful people say “no” to almost everything.<\/em><\/p>\n \u00a0It’s one in a hundred. That’s the ratio my successful real estate moguls tell me. They look at a hundred. They bid on ten. They get one. That one is a beauty. The whole process of investment searching doesn’t feel productive. You have to keep telling yourself that it is productive and that you really are working for a living. Ironically, some really neat real estate syndications have recently come out of the woodwork. Vetting them has been time-consuming.<\/p>\n Remember the “free” life insurance. Our friend who was organizing the life insurance went to his house in the Virgin Islands. While there, a robbery went very wrong and he was murdered. Sad.<\/p>\n He killed a man when he was very young.<\/strong><\/span> California has thrown away the key, never to let him out.<\/p>\n His story, in the latest issue of Harper’s magazine is gut-wrenching. Horrible. Sad.\u00a0 Mr. Hartman is clearly very bright. It’s hard to believe he belongs in jail. He could be a wonderful addition to our society. Please read his story.

Until I discovered the magic solution — a $14.33 pair of Fiskars 8 Inch Amplify RazorEdge Fabric Shears.<\/p>\n Buy yours here.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n Remember our busted Thermador oven door? <\/strong>The nice man came and fixed it:<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Before and after<\/p>\n This is the busted hinge compared to a good one. Notice how flimsy the busted one is. The stove cost over $6,000.<\/p>\n There are four lessons from this:<\/p>\n + When one hinge breaks, replace both. If you don’t, the second one will break the next day. I bought my two replacement hinges from www.CentralApplianceParts.com<\/a><\/strong>. They were really helpful.<\/p>\n + You can’t fix it yourself.You need the man from Thermador.<\/p>\n + Be very gentle opening and closing oven doors. They’re very fragile.<\/p>\n + Never use your oven’s self-cleaning feature. Our sweet Thermador man says self-cleaning heats the oven to over 800 degrees F, which destroys everything from wires to computer circuit boards.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a>\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
