Good read. I'll use this quote on my wife:

“Frugality, quite simply, is about choosing the things you love enough to spend extravagantly on—and then cutting costs mercilessly on the things you don’t love.”

@DC_Dude You asked about this in another thread
There’s a saying that if you get public recognition for donating money, it’s not charity – it’s philanthropy. And if you demand recognition, it’s not even charity – it’s a business deal.

So $AMD ER today...

Everyone is expecting PC/client revenue (DIY, consumer desktops/laptops, business desktops/laptops) to be ugly. No surprise given $MSFT & $INTC numbers. Luckily, that's not their only business segment. It is a good sized revenue chunk though.

Data center revenue needs to impress given the revenue drop at $INTC. It's probably most profitable segment this quarter. Their embeded business (XILINX) just needs to keep plugging along. Gaming (PS5, Xbox, graphics cards, custom handhelds)...who knows.

I'm hoping they meet expectations, but guidance will be key. $AMD is probably going to be even more conservative given that miss in Q3.

Good looking out..havent read that yet.
one up on wall street was a good read..
financially related books that I'm currently reading are: "snowball" (warren buffets autobiography) and "the psychology of money

No doubt maaan. RWH was a good one because it was more a book of different stories + lessons rather than a straight away investing tutorial. It added a human element to the folks that were profiled. It actually made me more open to research Howard Marks a bit more and he's become one of my favorite dudes to follow.

One Up On Wall Street and Psychology of Money, in particular, really resonated with me and my style. I follow Morgan Housel's Twitter and try to post up his letters when I remember.

Lynch, Marks (The Most Important Thing), and of course Buffett are always a good listen/read in my opinion. I have Snowball, but haven't gotten around to it yet; I guess because Buffett's story and lessons are so often recounted that I feel like I already know him well.

Right now, I'm trying to get though Marks, Mastering the Market Cycle and JL Collins, A Simple Path To Wealth.

Indeed.

Its been the earnings theme lately. Beat on revenue, but guidance ends up tanking the stock. Good thing is, if it drops too much, you can buy more.
When that happens I sell some puts on it. I either get the premium or get it at a cheaper price.

As expected, Microsoft (ticker: MSFT) this morning announced an upgrade to its Bing search engine to include the generative artificial intelligence technology behind ChatGPT. The idea is to make search a more conversational experience -- to allow people to ask natural language questions, and to receive better answers than simply blue links.

AMC Is Charging Moviegoers More for Better Seats. Brilliant Bet or Act of Desperation?

Now, AMC is rolling out one of its boldest bets yet: Sightline at AMC, a ticket pricing initiative based on seat location within the auditorium. It kicks off in select New York, Chicago and Kansas City locations before expanding to all domestic AMC theaters by the end of the year
