The biggest concern is transformation of auto industry, but it is far away after 10 years. All commute transport will be changed to EVs, but not big ones. As long as the industry is efficiently using resources to maintain profitability, they are good. BP seems to be better than XOM, but XOM is better in USA. I took both BP (6% div) and XOM (4%) dividend purpose.
In near future, I may consider GM (dividend stream) too instead of TSLA.
In Puerto Vallarta a crown was $240 compared to $1400 in San Mateo. I bet there is huge competition in Tijuana. Yelp? To find the good ones. Or talk to neighbors.
They measure performance by how much you yell. The louder the screams the lower the rating…lol
My ski buddy is a retired dentist born in Columbia.
I don’t even tell him I go to Mexico for rates half of what he charged in Stockton
I am not like BAGB and a few bloggers here, so damn fast in choosing a house, by the time I find a house that I like and won the bid, it may be 6 months from now, price of house has gone up 10% and price of stock has gone up 30%. Double whammy loss .
That is why I can’t play the same game as you and BAGB. I am very slow in making decision. In school, I play Chess not chasing after the balls. For Chess, you can take your time to think, 10 mins 10 moves
Other than SV’s RE, all other RE is not as good as S&P 500 index funds/ ETFs. The good thing about index fund/ ETF, you can buy a small amount at a time, no big down payment.
What percentage of you guys hold most of your stock asset in S&P 500 index fund? Most people are trying to play the stock picking game, some play the timing game as well. Could be wasted effort.
