Many investors who aren't ECP simply can't access decent strategies for investing and practically, if you only have $100,000 to invest, it's really not worth it in today's world (better to 'invest' in your own living conditions, vehicle, tools, and other things you might actually need).  You don't need to be a redneck to follow these simple rules, but if you want to run a 'redneck check' on yourself, here's a list of signs you might be a redneck IF:

One recurring lament throughout the theatrically dramatic campaign involving reports and emotional appeals by US intelligence agencies such as the CIA (whose primary function is the creation of disinformation) to ordinary Americans, that Russia had "hacked the US presidential election" is that for all the bluster and "conviction", there has been zero evidence.

Just days after we reported that the US had begun deploying some 2,800 tanks, trucks and other military equipment to Germany, from where they would be transported by rail and road to Eastern Europe as part of a buildup of NATO reinforcements against "Russian expansion", the next US deployment has made its way to Europe over the weekend, when some 4,000 US troops arrived in the German port of Bremerheven, on their way to Wroclaw, Poland under a planned NATO operation to "reassure the alliance’s Eastern European allies" in the face of what NATO has dubbed mounting Russian aggression.
