Ok there CVON millionaire. 🤣

I'm not even sure what kind of point you're trying to make here. I'm young genX. Never claimed to be a "millionaire," not that being a millionaire is some major feat now. I'm doing quite fine and count myself lucky.

Sober up and try making more sense.

Having a seven-figure net worth isn't exactly some unattainable amount. For someone who's been working for 25 years, especially for dual income households, simply tucking away 15-20% of gross pay every year and investing it in index funds should get most people almost all the way there already.

I wish I wasn't as frivolous in my youth, but yeah being a "millionaire" is pretty accessible to most making decent money. 

It's also not nearly good enough to retire comfortably for our generation.

I couldn't beat sense into you with a 5lb mini sledge.

There's another horse**** story running in the background

No. It's the size to weight ratio. All about speed, control, and balance.

So if you want to open a jar of mayonnaise when your wife's not home, do you have to ask a neighbor?

Familiar problem in your household? 

I open the occasional salsa jar for her but she manages just fine on her own most of time.

No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun

Definitely good news on the inflation front. I heard boneless, skinless chicken breast has gone down down 75% a pound! Munson must be over-the-moon!

Great Job Joe!!!

So when the price of "North American" vehicles rises because market equilibrium will require them to, and thus the overall price of new cars rises, we'll be blaming that on Biden right?

(Not specifically replying to you directly with this @Mlodj, just predicting the way I'd anticipate this playing out heading into the 2024 election)

Presidents always get too much blame and too much credit for events that are really beyond their control; it goes with the territory.

Retail theft was over $90B. How can we pin this future retail desert on racism when retails stores are removed from urban areas due to insurance cost?

Thanks a lot Biden. 😎  Seriously, the print industry has been shrinking for decades and most of us saw this coming. Both plants closing was a big shock though.

I went to a lot of print shops in the early 90s for work. Mostly with the $500k jumbo xerox printers at the time.  That was my 1st thought when I started seeing websites being advertised on TV in the mid-90s.  I'm shocked it took THIS long.

Many of our commercial printers down here are so busy that they can’t keep up.

Short run low volume printing still has a decent market. It’s the long run high volume jobs that are few and far between. Our plant is designed to run jobs like the TV Guide, The Donnelly Directory, Readers Digest, NYTs, Avon, etc. We ran anywhere from a few hundred thousand to a few million impressions per job. We have 7 double web offset presses and 7 double web Gravure presses, and two times as many binding lines.
