With inflation hitting 19.4% overall since covid, Is the Dow at 40,000 also

3:45pm

Yes. But that is why the market is a good hedge against it. It usually manages to stay above inflation.

HuskerFan2

3:50pm

Yep. That's why a good portion of my 401k monies while I'm in retirement are in stocks as an inflation hedge

I have had that same thought. It would affect profits too right?

Entertaining, but did not live up to the book. Two films for sure.

They could do it as one movie, it just needs to be directed and written by people who are talented AND

Archaea

35k seems like a steal

TouchdownCougars

Yeah, no way. Is he an absolute moron with no clue on his resale value?

mulletino

3:36pm

He burns through cars a lot, and I had been asking about his EVs

Archaea

3:40pm

If you can seriously get it for $35K, and he has taken care of it, that is an amazing deal.

mulletino

3:41pm

If you just have money laying around with nothing to do with it . . .

2FarGone

3:26pm

Which model?

insanobueno

3:28pm

Model S Plaid.

Archaea

3:29pm

It's the high end Tesla and used to be $135,000, not $35,000

2FarGone

3:32pm

Ask him how many sets of tires he's gone through

mobicurious

3:29pm

So the price he needs/wants is too much.

Archaea

3:30pm

He only wants $35k? What’s his number I’ll let him know it’s too high

NarfUte

3:32pm

How much are tires for that Tesla?

Archaea

3:34pm

I paid $250 a tire on my 2015 Model S for all seasons. So not $1000 each

TouchdownCougars

3:36pm

My Michelin all seasons were $1200 total (all 4).

scall

$2500

mulletino

Around $500 a piece. Can get them for less if you switch brands.

Archaea

They aren't run flats but you can get run flats if you want.

Not eligible 😕 how fast do you think it’ll drop?

insanobueno

3:21pm

Anyone buying a Tesla now should consider it a completely depreciated asset

mobicurious

3:31pm

It probably depends on any more price cuts/offers that Tesla offers on new ones

TouchdownCougars

3:32pm

10% per year is probably about standard for a 3yr old call, right?

Utah counts basement sqft, many other states do not.

Tokolosh

One thing I've seen when comparing in other areas, Utah almost universally counts basement space as part of square

Pete

3:03pm

In Michigan, it's illegal to count even finished basements in square footage

Japan Coug

3:14pm

Same in Missouri. Square footage is finished square feet above ground

BYUMizzou

Where have you seen that? I've looked at a lot of Utah homes on Zillow and even

Team Chaos

3:16pm

Here is a Zillow example. 800 above ground and 800 below to get to the total sqft.

Tokolosh

That's fair, and I'm not necessarily disagreeing. I'm just saying I've looked at

Team Chaos

I'd look elsewhere, like realtor.com.

Just quickly checked two Utah homes on realtor.com. Neither have basement square

Do they have basements?

Do you have the listings? I've never seen it in Utah.

Tokolosh
