The current state of finances has me in rather a tizzy as I face retirement.
ReplyDeleteThe yo-yo'ing is driving me insane.
ReplyDeleteI think there's something wrong with healthcare companies being so big. Not that healthcare isn't needed, but rather that these companies are committed to increasing their profits at the expense of helping people maintain their health, which is what they should be focused on. Nixon did us all a disservice when he forwarded the idea that healthcare companies could make a profit.
ReplyDeleteI had no idea Amazon was ahead of Apple.
ReplyDeleteThat definitely is interesting, and agree with Liz ..
