You do realize if this your strategy, you must own that domain FOREVER. Whomever purchases that domain after it expires now owns all your email aliases. Assuming you do a good job of changing all your emails at every service you ever used, there is still that potential leak. Large cloud services such as google do not allow name reuse. Of course paying for a domain name forever is probably still a better idea than a provider who can be purchased, but just a reminder!!
It’s a good call out. I’m glad that I used one domain instead of scattershot across all the ones I’ve owned: at least I’m only bound to renew the one domain. It’s a cheap TLD and hopefully it stays cheap!
It just we’ve seen the same thing for over four decades. I was getting stock certificates mailed to me from IBM in the 1980s when the savings and loan scandal rocked the market in 87. Then Enron. Then the internet bubble. Then the subprime meltdown. It just happens every decade or so when “too good to be true” runups happen.
There are other companies than the magnificent 7. Other boring companies with boring dividends and solid earnings that have nothing to do with tech. Ulta. Pepsi. Chevron. But you sound pretty smart so I’m sure you had a good reason to invest in non us markets.
Moats are for direct competition. China is not a competitor to spacex because the US government is spacex’s largest subsidy/customer. Put another way: nasa won’t be using Chinese rockets. Unless they bribe trump. Which could happen.
NASA ended up using Russian rockets because the Space Shuttle program got politically awkward. There is definitely a world where they'd use Chinese rockets.
What? The memo literally said Al qaeda was determined to strike the us with hijacked airplanes. Almost exactly one month before it happened. Are you not old enough to remember? Here’s the memo: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bin_Ladin_Determined_To_Strike...
