That’s what I was thinking. Regardless of whether cost basis or current value is the convention for calculating “yield,” you could make a better dividend in lots of other places with a claimed lower “yield.”

Is that the right way to look at divi yield? The shares are worth some amount of money today, and the yield on that $ is less than about 3%. You could cash out and make a higher yield on those dollars elsewhere. Sure, based on 2020 share price, the yield is a higher %, but that’s not the current value.

They know what they got. ;)
I know them personally but have never done business with them. Seems when there are lease or membership availabilities it’s the land’s fault and not the owner’s.

Weyerhaeuser probably hasn’t owned a piece of logging equipment in 30 years.

Not to the OP specifically…
Here’s the conundrum: if you own any stock, even thru an ETF or mutual fund, of one of these companies run by fat cat exec, you are part of the problem.
Own one share of VTI? Don’t complain.

re: What's the most you have negotiated off MSRP for a last years model vehicle?

30% off the last 2 new trucks I bought. I doubt that’s happening again.
This. Bullet weight, muzzle velocity doesn’t matter. The barrel’s harmonics dictate change in POI. Shooting even the same bullet at a higher velocity won’t necessarily make it impact higher. It’s all about the individual barrel, pressure, and harmonics… and BC.
Are you asking if the switch has power? Yes, it does.
Router, switch question
Posted by turkish on 1/10/26 at 1:16 pm
I am exceedingly ignorant to this, so bear with me.
I have a TP Link SG1005P switch connected to an ATT router. The switch is not providing any connectivity to device plugged into it via Ethernet. Looking in the network menu of my MacBook when connected to the switch, it says that it’s connected to Ethernet but has a self-assigned IP address and will not be able to connect to the internet.
When I plug the Ethernet cable straight from the router to my MacBook, it connects and seems to work correctly.
I’ve dealt with issues with this switch for a long time, abandoned it, and have just started trying to troubleshoot. Is this a switch problem? A router setting problem? Tia. I have another non-PoE switch that seems to work OK when I connect it in place of the 1005P.

re: Benelli or Beretta?
Posted by turkish on 1/9/26 at 8:44 am to CerRegKnockoutArtist
I have both. If you want a lifetime shotgun, Benelli. If you want to use it until the stock starts dissolving and then have no parts available to fix it, Beretta. Benelli will stand behind their product. Beretta will not. With that said Beretta’s mechanics are fantastic — their furniture is a liability.
I know of a couple near Vicksburg that tried it for awhile. They couldn’t keep up with the doe quota, so they’ve gone back to rifles.
Haha. I’ve thought of that angle. Unfortunately, when over 50% have the disease, I think all deer will be regarded as vermin and antler size won’t really matter.
re: CWD Concordia Parish

Oddly, the severity in Wisconsin, while having been ground zero for longer than NW AR, has not seen as significant impacts that Ark has. 50% of 2.5 year old bucks test positive and it has worsened over the course of a few years. That is not a sign of something that’s always been here! Unless something changes 4.5 year old and older bucks may be practically gone forever.
It’s sad that people still make this false claim with what we now know about the CWD situation in NW Arkansas.

A single deer or an entire herd?
re: My buddy caught a few hogs in his trap last night...
Posted by turkish on 1/5/26 at 6:05 pm to Clyde Tipton
What kind of trap?
Yeah, I have mixed results with Amdro. If it gets even a little damp, I think it’s done. I think even a morning dew is enough to inactivate the stuff. But if you can hit them with it during my a hot spell when they pop up a bunch of active mounds (like Christmas week) it can work pretty good. I smoked a bunch of em.
I have pretty religiously spot sprayed mounds from my mower with Bifen for several years. Not sure if I’m using too little solution or too dilute a solution, but I don’t see any reduction in number of beds. I’m going through a gallon of Bifen a year with an acre of yard and I don’t think I’m really making any ground. I have fewer mounds than the neighbors but that’s about all I can say.

You’re not totally wrong, but, to be fair, there’d also be millions rejoicing.
As bad as I hate fire ants, I can’t bring myself to sterilize my entire yard.
I realize this is very anecdotal, but this at least supports the theory that there is a consumer debt crisis imminent. That’s not a zip code that I feel can afford to light money on fire.
