The daily log has info on my estate sales hunting and stock trading
Hello all of you in Blog land. Here at Rob the Markets Blinds, in addition to stock trading, I also take the position of writing about the fun and enjoyment of the 'treasure hunting' at garage, estate, thrift, and stores looking for bargains that can be resold for a gain. At this point in my life, unlike other blogs of this type, I do it for fun and amusement. In the years ahead when I retire, I might do it for profit. How it's just a fun hobby.
It's just purely amazing how one's junk is another's treasure or need.
Hey you cats out there, Fly me to the Moon (on DAL) !
yaaaaaaaaaaahooooooo
Winning is grabbing momentum, profiting from it and then releasing it
A winner must be willing to embrace change and welcome challenge. The biggest “fear,” if there is one, is not of the unknown, but of becoming complacent and stagnant. An environment of change and even uncertainty can energize a mentally strong person and bring out their best.

11:04am Hi everybody, earlier today I went to a nearby estate sale. It was a small sale yet I found some nice items. I bought two books for $3.00 each (Daniel Boone 1945 and Davy Crockett 1941 vintage). The Davy Crockett book is listed on EBAY by another seller for $75.00! I also picked up two Sands las vegas hotel mugs for $.25 each. Sands was a landmark hotel in it's day and has been closed for many years. These particular ones are at 12.00 each on Ebay! Also bought some other items.
12:00 noon. FB facebook has the biggest audience and is the No. 1 app for mobile smartphones.
AAPL Apple rules when it comes to smartphone subscribers with 41% of the total market, outpacing Samsung, which had 28%.
VIPS Vipshop has beat earnings on all nine quarters as a public company can't go unnoticed. It hasn't.
You, you, you need to rake
Do I rake ?

Are you going after the big fish?
This site isn't all about the stock market. However, with the daily updating of the stock market, it took most of my time. I am still going to discuss the stock market but also going to relate more to other parts of this site - such as the paintings, my hobbies such as estate sale treasure hunting, movies, autos, etc.
I have developed a good following if the Blogger statistics I get are correct. It will be interesting to see how they change in the coming months. As stated, I will start a new public stock market portfolio. There's so technical issues to work out. One being displaying Options.
Catching Fire started during thanksgiving week, Nov 2013
