I’m curious, what’s an item, tool, or purchase you own that you feel has completely justified its cost over time? Could be anything from a gadget to a piece of furniture or even software. What made it worth it for you?

My Nancy pelosi stock bot has done really well

I thought this didn't work because by the time their purchases are disclosed, you are already buying past the rise in price?

That is true, but it's about the percentages. If you make the trades as they get released to the public, you still make money. It's within a few percent of what Pelosi is making. I switched to a different one that is reported instantly as far as I know instead of Pelosi's 14 days average. It's the Jim Simmons tracker
