    The Rokslide Stock Traders Thread

    Scroll back to post 11,083. I posted the FDIC EIDE calculator. I can use this calculator to create hypotheticals or look at your current accounts to view your coverage. The jist of it is, paid on death beneficiaries, and joint accounts help you. For example in my hypothetical world I have...

    The Rokslide Stock Traders Thread

    No I'm staying that if you have over $250,000 it is easy to keep it in 1 bank and still have it covered by FDIC insurance if you are a normal person. It is much harder to keep it covered if you are a corporation. If you are a married couple it is easy to have FDIC insurance covering 1,000,000...

    Is the western hunting bubble bursting? (Or at least shrinking?)

    Personally I don't, not to the degree that boomers did anyway. When you think about it boomers had their cake and ate it too. They had low cost education (subsidized by state and federal taxes), pension plans, cheap housing, and capital to take advantage of several "once in a lifetime"...

    The Rokslide Stock Traders Thread

    For your average Joe (ie not a giant corporation). You can do some easy things to have well in excess of $250,000 of insured funds in one bank. The fact that we are covering corporate stupidity, with funds from other banks is insane. Sure the tax payers don't have to pay for it. Just the banks...

    Reassure your girl, make sure you're open and she has access to stuff. Pregnant women (even if their beautiful) think there is no way you could be attracted to them. Hormones are out of wack and they are concerned about their security (doubly so if they aren't married to their man I'm sure)...

    Wyoming NR Special increase headed for the Gov's signature

    The Wyoming change will hurt a little, what will hurt more is the continuous "keeping up with the Joneses" of other western states raising their prices, as well as the inevitable eventual shift to 90/10 for E/D/A. But I can't convince my wife to move from my already shit weather scene in...

    Has CWD affected your hunting plans?

    I hunt a unit with an estimated cwd population of 30-50% in whitetails. Interestingly enough non that I've shot have tested positive, and no trail camera pictures or visual spotting of wasting animals have occurred. I'm sure they are there, but we still have good age classes of bucks. I think...

    Numerous Wyoming residents actually stood up and said the price increases was excessive/over the top of you've followed along and read public comments.

    Wyoming NR Special increase headed for the Gov's signature

    There is a difference in not loving NR hunting and actively jacking up prices and putting more and more restrictions in place. I think NR youth can get deer and turkey tags in Nebraska for $8. . That's not a typo. $8, so for less than the price of a big Mac little Jimmy can come hunt my state...

    Wyoming NR Special increase headed for the Gov's signature

    WYFG: For one low monthly payment of $164.99 you too can apply for the Wyoming special elk draw! But that's not all campers, act now and we will only charge you additionally for your conservation stamp, archery stamp, etc. Etc. . . Guys on rokslide: This, this, this is outrageous! Criminal...

    What happened to my WKR?

    A guy goes through all the work of stealing someone's BOAL, buys his stickers to show he's a part of something, and Bam! He's out, tossed to the curb and told he has to prove himself all over again! Guess you guys better keep close tabs on your BOALs this fall!

    Is a .22 enough for gophers?

    Everyone knows you need a Swarovski scope and binos to hunt gophers. Anything else and the lack of clarity will leave you guessing at claw length and unable to determine the length of individual back hairs. This could be there difference between a trophy gopher and just a really good gopher. YMMV

    Grocery Bill?

    Family of 5. Kids 5, 9, 13. We budget 1000 a month here in Nebraska but that includes products like TP, paper towels, etc. We hit Costco, Walmart and our local grocery store and eat pretty healthy with mostly foods we cook not buying prepared foods. Our benefit is my brother raises beef for...

    Colorado corner crossing bill proposed

    Agreed, I own 240 acres with (gasp) an easement for the neighbor to access his land behind mine. The outrage! Funny thing is when the neighbors land changed hands, the new owner asked if they could install cattle gates, and haul a few loads of white rock to help keep one of our big hills from...

    Fire or no fire

    If animals equated smoke with danger there would be many areas they would be fleeing in circles from summer to winter most years due to smoke. I glassed a bull a few years back withing 1/2 mile of an active forest fire, bugling and going about his business with his herd. It was a slow burn...

    Fire or no fire

    If no fire ban we have fires . . . For a couple reasons. Typically we have the old man in camp not humping up and down the mountain so he has a fire built guiding us in when we come back after dark. When we are spiked out and the old man isn't around we will have one every other night or so...

    What generation do western hunters fall into?

    No worries. If I didn't have to look up the years for all of them I would of made the same mistake!
