One of the more interesting choices for a Presidential SOTU speech prop
during the last few years has been Debbie Bosanek, personal secretary to
mega-billionaire Warren Buffett. Bosanek was chosen to be a visual
illustration of a theme repeated a lot by Warren Buffet these days – “My
secretary pays more tax than I do.”
Buffet has long publicized his effective tax rate, which he claims is 17.4%
and is “unfairly” low. In contrast, Debbie Bosanek’s t... 阅读全帖 |

Jack White recently of the band The White Stripes has realized something
important, capitalism works. At least it works when properly approached and
with the release of several special vinyl albums he is trying to do it right
, much to the consternation of some of his cheapskate fans.
As it happens, Mr. White is part of Third Man Records label, a company that
produces special pressings on vinyl for the collectors market. But, seeing

Bogleheads are like-minded people who consider investing as a long-term

make a killing by trading stocks or flipping houses; whose expectations are
pathetically low ( in the mid single digit range); who are cheapskates and
cry foul at any form of fees and taxes; who are very likely couch potatos

发帖数: 94654 | 9 the key is this broker was recommended by my coworker, who is a super
cheapskate. If he lands on somebody, that somebody must be good, hehe.
Actually he was pretty good. didn't have any problem with my loan, and he
asked for minimum documents, super fast, straightforward,
my first agent was referred by my agent, thinking back, she was just
bullshit. took advantage that I had to close, gave me shitty rate...
well, maybe, refi is always easier and better than purchase loan. who knows. |

Cheapskate Wisdom About … How Often You Should Wash Jeans

In other words: Save the money you would have spent on water and laundry,
while at the same time saving the life and look of your jeans.
