https://www.cnbc.com/I was gullible enough to think that one benefit of TSF as President would be that he would juice the stock market before he tanked the economy a year or two into his second reign of error.

I am not knowledgeable about all the things needed to pick specific stocks. I have a financial advisor whom I've done very well by. I am taking out a steady 4% from the annuities he put me in, and because their value has grown, we've increased the money I get each month. He also moved pretty much everything from stock funds to bond funds.
And right now it's down a bankruptcy-inducing 2.94%.
