hey dude I found your blog today (not sure why it was recommended to me but here I am)
I dont personally identity with objectum or finding that sort of pleasure from objects, but as I'm exploring the tags im finding myself really curious and I want to understand more. I'm hoping you can answer some questions for me.
the objects you have an attachment to (in your case I think its a keyboard), do you think you're naturally drawn to these objects, or do you think there is a deeper connection with these particular items? Such as a personal history with said item?
Did you "choose them" or did they "choose you", ig?
Do you think its an aesthetic attraction to said objects, or is there something more they bring to you?
How do you and others determine pronouns for the objects?
When did you learn objectum was what you identified with?
I want to be clear this is coming from a place of curiosity and a wish for an understanding! I find myself drawn to certain objects myself (mainly things with physical buttons and screens, particularly handheld devices) but for me its strictly aesthetic and not romantic. Take care and happy holidays ✌️
casually forgets this was sitting in my inbox 😳
my main object isn't a keyboard, it's an astrolite (made by hasbro in 1969), a "futuristic" toy that came with clear pegs that you could put in the holes on top and create a city (main draw). i feel like it's extremely obscure, there's barely any info online about it. the part of aster that i love is basically just a lamp, plug that sucker in (no on/off switch) and spin the wheel to make the pegs on top turn different colors. when i got aster it was just them, no pegs or information or anything. just a serial number on the back. finding that one ebay listing that told me everything i needed to know kinda solidified our relationship. it's definitely a deeper connection but lamps in general just kinda hit different.
i saw them in that store and it was true love at first sight but i'd like to say it goes both ways (has no idea how to explain this)
something about corners and shapes is what initially drew me in but they've been with me through everything ever since i got them. not trauma dumping on side but i've been through it.
i'm not sure how others do it but the way i do it is test pronouns with each object as i'm getting to know them. if it feels wrong i disengage with it, if they feel okay then i keep trying it out. i'm not 100% sure on what aster's pronouns are tbh; they mainly go by he/him but there are some occasions where he goes by they/them. including now.
it's kinda embarrassing to admit but that lamp in dhmis was what got me acting up about objects in the first place. thought it was just a character specific thing at first so i didn't think much of it. met/acquired aster and that completely flipped. i remember searching for stuff like "i love an object what is this called" and quickly came across the term. immediately applied that to myself.
also another thing, i actually have a few beloved objects (not as much as aster but they're pretty important to me): baby, my 2005 ford focus, and charlie, my gaming computer. ofc you probably know this already because i know i posted a list of them somewhere on this blog. but i've kinda been getting into nintendo consoles/controllers recently (corners and shapes <3)
i enjoyed answering these! if there's anything else you'd like to ask, go ahead ☺️ sorry that this took so long tho 😭

Svitanje
Vidio sam story i novu profilnu na wappu.
Sav moj život do tebe nisam video ljepše oči i slađe usne od tvojih Bejbi M.
Nikad nijedna žena u meni nije probudila toliki vrtlog osjećaja. Toliko snažno ludilo žudnje, strastvene želje. Boli me što te usne ne ljubim ja. Boli me što te oči nisu prvi i poslednji prizor koji vidim u danu. Boli me što te osjećam kao dom iz kojeg sam proteran. Boli me što nismo "mi" i zbog toga me boli što se svaki puta kad okačiš neku svježu sliku iznova bespomoćno zaljubim. Grize me što nisam dostojan da budem tvoj i da budeš moja.
Neobično, zar ne? Jer, ljubio sam te i gledao svitanje u tvojim očima samo jednom u životu.
P.S. Spremio sam si obje fotke iako znam da to mrziš.

Oh my god, wait, ready?…
Elliot allows Felix to.. ✨back hug✨ him bc he’s so tired and uncomfortable, everybody in the house is also surprised by this. It sound more magical than it looks written out. The details just keep popping up in my head.
Confession (I’ve finally worked up the courage to say): my head follows the basic descriptions of your OCs, but I visualize them a little different so whenever I see a picrew I’m like “who’s this weeb?” 🥲😭 “OH shit, it’s Charlie!” 😭😭 lolz idk why I was scared to admit that.
I often read 🍄 anon’s asks and I think the little friendship you’ve built with each other is so precious and both of you are so sweet towards each other.
- Scoops
(my alias: Scoops, bc we scooped up each other replies)
That was magical! Back hugs are a special type of magic, especially for grumpy and/or stoic characters. Elliott was much more reserved and determined to be the “tough guy” back when he first met Felix (not to mention touch starved as all hell). 
Ugh, just I love this kind of imagery so much, especially since Felix is kind of tiny. I could totally see Elliott receiving one of these, and then standing up and pulling Felix up onto his back. 
Wait, that's so interesting and cool! I've never heard of anyone picturing Charlie any differently and I'm really really curious about how you picture him, if you wouldn't mind sharing? Or any of the rest of them?
Honestly, 🍄 anon is the MVP on this blog.
"Scoops", stoppppp that is the cutest!! I'm not sure if there's supposed to be an emoji there because I'm just seeing the little box with "obj" inside of it. Hopefully it'll show up for others and it's just an issue with my very old laptop and phone.

incomprehensible conjecture and rambling about sunny/rcg under the cut! idk man I got 1 hour of sleep in the past 24 or wataver and my brain is an abandoned swamp Good Nigte
i certainly am not arguing that mac Absolutely Isnt a stereotype of a predatory gay man/self-hating homophobe or whatevr. i wont argue the homophobe one at all really,not great even if they rectified it and further tried to make up for it or whatever w mac finds his pride (which i love, regardless). but honestly i dont think the predatory complaint really makes a whole lot of legitimate sense considering every charatcer on the show is Extremely predatory in their own right. if he wasnt i’d be irritated to be honest. i do agree w wat mcelhenney said something like that its cool that they decided to acknowledge he was gay without changing him fundamentally as a person; he still needs to fit into the show or watever. like idk he’s not Ideal Gay Rep ofc but he’s awesome still. To Me. I like when character’s sexuality can be an improtant acknowledged facet of them but doesnt overtake the rest of te narrative! It never occurred to me that his behavior toward dennis would be seen as predatory ina stereotypical way seeing as how their relationship dynamic is so fckign bizarre. charlie has the same level of dogged cluelessness about the obj of his affection’s true feelings, so it didnt occur to me to see mac touching dennis’ knee or stuff of that variety as being any different ig or as making fun of queers or watevr. if i am wrong/misunderstanding i apologize. i have never considered mac from that perspective before.
honestly i kinda get the complaints. i’ve never rly thought rcg all have 10000% pure intentions with the insensitive kind of humor they are into, no matter their loophole justifications for shit. sometimes i almost believe their reasoning and do basically understand but it still seems flimsy when you considers stuff like the blackface stuff which is indeed kind of funny at times mainly bc the joke is the absurdity of it all, like mac in the shower with the brown dripping off him like he’s melting; it’s not funny at the expense of black ppl but more so at the expense of how goddam stupid and unaware mac is. i havent seen the blackface/brownface ones in years sos i dont have a whole lot to say excepe they seemed to be clearly against using blackface as the moral while still using it to get laughs. so. really honestly i don’t know that it’s Liderally Ever edgy white people’s call to use something like blackface regardless of context, regardless of their obvious intent? i dunno i have tried to find Black ppls opinions online a couple times but struggled to find any tangible results. the only other thing i have to say with ym white person words is that i think it’s stupid that the streamig companies take down all insensitive episodes like theyre trying to brush them under the rug and pretend it never happened in wake of a changing political climate. i get it, but kinda just seems like corporate scrambling ie disney getting ridof all of song of the south but still profiting from splash mountain eprhaps. something seems dodgy to me about pretending it doesnt exist anymore just to cover their asses. i understand the sentiment i guess but i dont think that’s really the main goal of the BLM movement, to purge streaming services of any questionable/racially insensitive/Fully Racist material; there’s surely more important things at the top of the lists besids Good Branding . im not sure if that makes sense
also a lot of episodes the joke is the blatant but somehow woefully oblivious homoerotic overtones present between the guys, like a Lot of the time. it is very funny though is the thing and a lot of thm are my favorites. i dunno. i also thought hte pooping transgender bit was pretty funny mainly cause it was absurd. i think maybe because i have my own what i think are reaosnable and empathetic views about certain stuff like queer shit it doesnt necessarily occur to me that they are trying to make fun of queer people.. like people make fun of conservative fans for having completely missed the point of it all being satire, and wat if i am being tricked to into assuming rcg has kind intentions and isnt trying to make fun of queer people just cause the thought didnt occur to me? instead of taking all the gay subtext serious- WHICh i Do, i should probably be more aware that to rcg it is just a bit and not really that deep. but mac and dennis were totally fucjing in s5 canonically. anwyays like aside from the carmen shit which is handled So Fuckign Bad and it makes me so upset cause i actually love carmen they were just very clearly not bothered with actually representing trans people accurately. so in the bathroom one if even fuckin dee reynolds is like, saying a trans woman in a woman’s bathroom is obviously normal.. it seems like they’d rectified some of their previous Very flawed rhetoric surrounding trans women (ie the whole “u slept with me when i was still a man” line. makes me cringe a bit ebery time)u get wat i mean?? not that it atones for it obviously. i love carmen she desreved better
butreallt i dont have any like. Pure Faith in rcg to be super accountable or honest about their intentions or to have the most accurate or agreeable beliefs or whataver. theyre just fucking about really because they can without any lashback. and people i think like being able to laugh at offensive shit thru scenarios which supposedly distance you from bigots/evil people and make u feel better about yourself watching these dumbass evil people talk slime. when like. glenn yelling supposedly arabic-sounding gibberish for example: it is funny in this context not just cause it’s wildly inappropriate and absurd but also because there’s prob significant amt of people who actually dont have an issue with it who could watch it and not have that takeaway whatsoever. i dont kno wt im talking about anymore btu honestly if youre trying to watch a show that isnt rife throughout with controversial/offensive/insensitive language and story beats, i dont know why you would try to stomach it with sunny. like for gods sake they used blackface more than once! i dunno man

Here’s Colin Kaepernick in the first ad for Nike’s 30th ’Just Do It’ campaign
Tumblr media
Athletes from every walk of life were features.
Colin Kaepernick’s released the the extended version of his new Nike commercial that evokes the tagline unveiled early in the week “Believe in something. Even if it means sacrificing everything.”
Believe in something. Even if it means sacrificing everything. #JustDoIt pic.twitter.com/x5TnU7Z51i
— Colin Kaepernick (@Kaepernick7) September 5, 2018
The commercial features numerous athletes, some of whom are household names like LeBron James and Serena Williams — but there are also several lesser-known athletes competing at their own levels, and redefining themselves.
Here’s a complete list of the athletes we can identify in the commercial:
Nyjah Huston (skateborder)
Isiah Bird (wrestler)
Eliud Kipchoge (runner)
Charlie Jabaley (ironman)
Alphonso Davies (soccer)
LeBron James (basketball)
U.S. Women’s Soccer Team
Shaquem Griffin (football)
Serena Williams (tennis)
Kaepernick’s monologue reads:
“If people say your dreams are crazy. If they laugh at what they think you can do — good. Stay that way. Because what non-believers fail to understand is that calling a dream crazy is not an insult, it’s a compliment.
Don’t try to be the fastest runner in your school, or the fastest runner in the world — be the fastest ever. Don’t picture yourself wearing OBJ’s jersey, picture OBJ wearing yours. Don’t settle for homecoming queen or linebacker, do both.
Lose 120 pounds and become an Ironman — after beating a brain tumor.
Don’t believe you have to be like anybody, to be somebody. If you’re born a refugee, don’t let it stop you from playing soccer, for the national team — at age 16. Don’t become the best basketball player on the planet. Be bigger than basketball.
Believe in something. Even if it means sacrificing everything.
When they talk about the greatest team in the history of the sport, make sure it’s your team. If you only have one hand, don’t just watch football — play it at the highest level.
And if you’re a girl from Compton, don’t just become a tennis player — become the greatest athlete ever. Yeah, that’s more like it. So don’t ask if your dreams are crazy. Ask if they’re crazy enough.”

Brokers Quotes
Official Website: Brokers Quotes
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push();
• A broker is a man who runs your fortune into a shoestring. – Alexander Woollcott • A crafty knave needs no broker. – Horace • A man cannot be a good doctor and keep telephoning his broker between patients nor a good lawyer with his eye on the ticker. – Walter Lippmann • A newly elected representative quickly discovers that his job in government-aside from making new laws-is to act as a broker, middleman, special pleader and finagler. – William Greider • All of Robert Caro’s biographies are exceptional, in part because of Caro’s fundamental ambivalence about power. He sees its necessity and use for getting things done, even as he is often repelled by watching power at close range. His masterpiece on Robert Moses, The Power Broker, describes the evolution of Moses from idealist to pragmatist as he became one of the most powerful figures in the 20th century. – Jeffrey Pfeffer • Ask any real estate broker to name the three most important factors in buying a property, and he’ll say: “Location, location, location.” Now ask him to name the chief justice of the United States Supreme Court, and he’ll say: “Location, location, location.” This tells us that we should not necessarily be paying a whole lot of attention to real estate brokers. – Dave Barry
jQuery(document).ready(function($) var data = action: 'polyxgo_products_search', type: 'Product', keywords: 'Broker', orderby: 'rand', order: 'DESC', template: '1', limit: '68', columns: '4', viewall:'Shop All', ; jQuery.post(spyr_params.ajaxurl,data, function(response) var obj = jQuery.parseJSON(response); jQuery('#thelovesof_broker').html(obj); jQuery('#thelovesof_broker img.swiper-lazy:not(.swiper-lazy-loaded)' ).each(function () var img = jQuery(this); img.attr("src",img.data('src')); img.addClass( 'swiper-lazy-loaded' ); img.removeAttr('data-src'); ); ); ); • But I have never had the privilege of unhappiness in Happy Valley. California is about the good life. So a bad life there seems so much worse than a bad life anywhere else. Quality is an obsession there—good food, good wine, good movies, music, weather, cars. Those sound like the right things to shoot for, but the never-ending quality quest is a lot of pressure when you’re uncertain and disorganized and, not least, broker than broke. Some afternoons a person just wants to rent Die Hard, close the curtains, and have Cheerios for lunch. – Sarah Vowell • Diversification is something that stock brokers came up with to protect themselves, so they wouldn’t get sued for making bad investment choices for clients. Henry Ford never diversified, Bill Gates didn’t diversify. The way to get rich is to put your eggs in one basket, but watch that basket very carefully. And make sure you have the right basket. – Jim Rogers • For you, o broker, there is no other principle but arithmetic. For me, commerce is of trivial import; love, faith, truth of character, the aspiration of man, these are sacred; nor can I detach one duty, like you, from all other duties, and concentrate my forces mechanically on the payment of moneys. – Ralph Waldo Emerson • Full service brokers, in this day and age of low cost mutual funds and discount brokers, are really nothing more than machines for ripping off retail investors. – Joel Spolsky • I am currently reading, “The Broker” by John Grisham. it is alittle slow to start so I will have to let you know if it gets better – John Grisham • I did everything in my power to give my brokers brand identity and clout in the market. I saw my job as parent to build them up and if I took care of them, then they would take care of their customer. – Barbara Corcoran • I do not regard a broker as a member of the human race. – Honore de Balzac • I do not regard the procuring of peace as a matter in which we should play the role of arbiter between different opinions … more that of an honest broker who really wants to press the business forward. – Otto von Bismarck • I do not respect the Dalai Lama. He’s a political power broker. The Dalai Lama is not honorable to me. – Ashin Wirathu • I dont want to just be a broker all my life, I want to lead. – Luis D. Ortiz • I find it funny because people complain about Brooklyn becoming too hip, but would they prefer stock brokers or gunfights or something? – Kemp Muhl • I had probably seven agents by the time I became a legitimate real estate broker. – Barbara Corcoran • I have always been a critic of government policy. I was in government for more than five years. Before that I was a critic. Within the government I was a critic, pushing for reform and always at odds with power brokers within the party. – Jonathan Moyo • I just made a killing in the stock market — I shot my broker. – Henny Youngman • I made a killing on Wall Street a few years ago…I shot my broker. – Groucho Marx • I think America has to do more than be a broker now. Because both the Palestinians are weak and Israel is very weak. – Brent Scowcroft • I think that of most leaders in religion as power brokers. They give orders, in a sense, to an audience every week, and that’s where the definition of God starts. – Norman Lear • I told my broker that as long as he doesn’t tell me where my money should go, I won’t tell him where he should go. – Leopold Fechtner • I was a stock broker once. I think there is an absolute place for market investments. But they should never be the basis of one’s retirement. They should be an additional piece on top of a basic, secure, guaranteed retirement benefit. – Barbara Boxer • I was a trader for a company. That’s different from the brokers who we sort of disdain as sort of just errand boys. – Melvin Van Peebles • I was always an artist. I was a broker to earn a living, but I was always thinking about my art. – Jeff Koons • I would not want to form a partnership with an architect who has only a little knowledge of building or a broker who has a limited knowledge of the stock market. Still, we form what we hope to be permanent relationships in love with people who have hardly any knowledge of what love is. – Leo Buscaglia • I’d like to take a motorcycle trip across Europe, maybe even across China. Of course I’d also like to broker a peace agreement between the Israelis and the Palestinians, but it’s important to put ceilings on one’s ambitions. – Stephen King • If I have something to apologize, I want to be the first one to step up and make that apology. I don’t want anyone to broker it for me. I don’t want anyone to take the hit for me. If I have anything to apologize for, I’m only human. I’m prone to making mistakes. – Michelle Shocked • If the Nation can issue a dollar bond it can issue a dollar bill. The element that makes the bond good makes the bill good also. The difference between the bond and the bill is that the bond lets the money broker collect twice the amount of the bond and an additional 20%. Whereas the currency, the honest sort provided by the Constitution pays nobody but those who contribute in some useful way. It is absurd to say our Country can issue bonds and cannot issue currency. Both are promises to pay, but one fattens the usurer and the other helps the People. – Thomas A. Edison • If you take sales presentations and brokers of commercial real estate and businesses… I’m 70 years old, I’ve never seen one I thought was even within hailing distance of objective truth…. ‘incentive-caused bias,’ causes this terrible abuse. And many of the people who are doing it you would be glad to have married into your family compared to what you’re otherwise going to get. – Charlie Munger • If your broker or investment advisor is not familiar with the concept of standard deviation of returns, get a new one. – William J. Bernstein • I’m beginning to wonder about my broker. Yesterday I told him to buy a hundred shares of A.T.&T. He said, ‘Would you spell that?’ – Robert Orben • In the commercial real estate business, brokers spearhead major accounts. But they wouldn’t have customers without the people who oversee construction. – Roger Staubach • Intelligence, goodness, humanity, excitement, serenity. Over time, these are the things that change the musculature of your face, as do laughter, and animation, and especially whatever peace you can broker with the person inside. It’s furrow, pinch, and judgement that make us look older – our mothers were right. They said that if you made certain faces, they would stick, and they do. But our mothers forgot that faces of kindness and integrity stick as well. – Anne Lamott • Invest less at the end of the month. Brokers tend to push stocks at the end of the month in an effort to match or surpass their previous month’s sales. – Nancy Dunnan • Israel must never be expected to jeopardize her security: if she was ever foolish enough to do so, and then suffered for it, the backlash against both honest brokers and Palestinians would be immense – ‘land for peace’ must also bring peace. – Margaret Thatcher • It is curious that Christianity, which is idealism, is sturdily defended by the brokers, and steadily attacked by the idealists. – Ralph Waldo Emerson • It’s common knowledge that a large percentage of Wall Street brokers use astrology. – Donald T. Regan • Japan should get more involved in mediating disputes between countries and seek to play the role of a peace broker. To make this possible, we must train people so they have a solid understanding of international politics and great negotiation skills. – Sadako Ogata • Kyoto costs a lot, does nothing to prevent calamity, and pays no compensation in the event of loss. If my insurance broker offered that sort of policy, I would not carry insurance. Instead what my broker offers is a policy that costs a little and pays full compensation in the event of loss. If someone wants to propose that as a policy on global warming, I’m all in favour. – Ross McKitrick • Many of those whose task it is to broker the truth of God to the people of God in the churches have now redefined the pastoral task such that theology has become an embarrassing encumbrance or a matter of which they have little knowledge; and many in the Church have now turned in upon themselves and substituted for the knowledge of God a search for the knowledge of self. – David F. Wells • Maybe you’ll take the cash out. So a credit card company or a bank that goes into the business of saying we’re going to be the broker, we’re going to sell you a mortgage that you’re going to be able to pay off, we’re going to help you reduce your credit card debt, we’re going to help you save for retirement, we’re going to put you into mutual funds that have low fees rather than high fees. – Richard Thaler • Mutual funds charge 2% per year and then brokers switch people between funds, costing another 3-4 percentage points. The poor guy in the general public is getting a terrible product from the professionals. I think it’s disgusting. It’s much better to be part of a system that delivers value to the people who buy the product. But if it makes money, we tend to do it in this country. – Charlie Munger • My rather puritanical view is that any investment manager, whether operating as broker, investment counselor of a trust department, investment company, etc., should be willing to state unequivocally what he is going to attempt to accomplish and how he proposes to measure the extent to which he gets the job done. – Warren Buffett • National security advisors, like White House Chiefs of Staff, their job generally if they`re – if they`re competent and qualified and effective is to be honest brokers in the White House. – Lawrence O’Donnell • Never call your broker on Monday. Out of courtesy and common sense, wait until Tuesday. A good broker is focused on the opening of the market – at home and around the world – and on getting back into a business frame of mind after the weekend. – Nancy Dunnan • Never take advice from anyone in a tie. They’ll bankrupt you. Don’t ask a general for advice on war, and don’t ask a broker for advice on money. – Nassim Nicholas Taleb • Now I’m in real trouble. First my laundry called and said they lost my shirt and then my broker said the same thing. – Leopold Fechtner • on Broadway money rules. Like a host of vultures, the ticket brokers, the speculators, the craft unions, the agents, the backers, the real estate owners move in on the creative body and take their bite. The world of dreams breathes in an iron lung; and without this mechanical pumping it dies. – Marya Mannes • Once the brokerage house, rather than the bank, became the locus for American savings, that money would find its way into the stock market, because the broker was someone with a much higher tolerance for risk than the banker. – Ron Chernow • One day I visited a guy who had made a fortune as a broker. He was sitting in his office with his computer. I hire people from here and make deals from this room, he told me. Then he took me to the trading room. Nobody was talking to anybody else, the place was silent as a tomb, they were all sitting there watching their terminals – a great word, terminal. I tell you, it scares the crap out of me. – Studs Terkel • One of the ironies of the stock market is the emphasis on activity. Brokers, using terms such as ‘marketability’ and ‘liquidity,’ sing the praises of companies with high share turnover… but investors should understand that what is good for the croupier is not good for the customer. A hyperactive stock market is the pick pocket of enterprise. – Warren Buffett • One of the really positive things about minority government is that there is the necessity to broker policy positions. What happens is you get a hybrid of what a single party might do. And I don’t think that is a bad thing. – Kathleen Wynne • Our standard prescription for the know-nothing investor with a long-term time horizon is a no-load index fund. I think that works better than relying on your stock broker. The people who are telling you to do something else are all being paid by commissions or fees. The result is that while index fund investing is becoming more and more popular, by and large it’s not the individual investors that are doing it. It’s the institutions. – Charlie Munger • Panic in Wall Street, brokers feeling melancholy. – Scott Joplin • People who invest make money for themselves; people who speculate make money for their brokers. And that, in turn, is why Wall Street perennially downplays the durable virtues of investing and hypes the gaudy appeal of speculation. – Benjamin Graham • Progressive visions pale and are smashed next to the normalization of market-driven government policies that wipe out pensions, eliminate quality health care, punish unions, demonize public servants, raise college tuition, and produce a harsh world of joblessness – all the while giving billions and huge bonuses, instead of prison sentences… to those bankers and investment brokers who were responsible for the 2008 meltdown of the economy and the loss of homes for millions of Americans. – Henry Giroux • Quinn’s First Law of Investing is never to buy anything whose price you can’t follow in the newspapers. An investment without a public marketplace attracts the fabulists the way picnics attract ants. Stock brokers and financial planners can tell you anything they want, because no one really knows what’s true. The First Corollary to Quinn’s First Law states that, even when the price is in the newspapers, you shouldn’t buy anything too complex to explain to the average 12-year-old. – Jane Bryant Quinn • Ron Reagan amazingly qualifies as an honest broker. I asked him if he was a mamas boy and he said no, more of a papas boy. At the same time he was willing to say that his father had many shortcomings and needed to be held accountable. – Eugene Jarecki • So I conjured one of the brokers and promised him my soul if he’d protect her. (Zephyra) You can’t do that. Only a demon can. (Stryker) You’re such a brainiac, baby. And to think, I thought I married you for those amazing abs. Who knew all that brainpower was buried under those bulging biceps? (Zephyra) – Sherrilyn Kenyon • Stuyvesant chats with Kelly and Katz, The professor warms to the broker, And life is good in the brotherhood Of an air-conditioned smoker. – Ogden Nash • The average person can’t really trust anybody. They can’t trust a broker, because the broker is interested in churning commissions. They can’t trust a mutual fund, because the mutual fund is interested in gathering a lot of assets and keeping them. And now it’s even worse because even the most sophisticated people have no idea what’s going on. – Seth Klarman • The Carlyle Group is the most politically connected investment firm in the world. The company has mastered the art of influence peddling on a global scale, hiring executives and consultants ranging from Republican power broker James Baker and former president George Herbert Walker Bush to foreign leaders like former British prime minister John Major and former Philippine president Fidel Ramos. – William Hartung • The Dutch must be understood as they really are, the Middle Persons in Trade, the Factors and Brokers of Europe… they buy to sell again, take in to send out again, and the greatest Part of their vast Commerce consists in being supply’d from All Parts of the World, that they may supply All th World Again. – Daniel Defoe • The financial collapse of 2008 got its start with predatory mortgages, that weren’t sold by community banks and credit unions, they were sold by fly by night mortgage brokers who had almost zero federal oversight and then the big banks looked over, saw the profit potential and they wanted it bad. So they jumped in and sold millions of these terrible mortgages while the bank regulators just looked the other way. – Elizabeth Warren • The general systems of money management today require people to pretend to do something they can’t do and like something they don’t. It’s a funny business because on a net basis, the whole investment management business together gives no value added to all buyers combined. That’s the way it has to work. Mutual funds charge two percent per year and then brokers switch people between funds, costing another three to four percentage points. The poor guy in the general public is getting a terrible product from the professionals. – John C. Bogle • The government consists of a gang of men exactly like you and me. They have, taking one with another, no special talent for the business of government; they have only a talent for getting and holding office. Their principal device to that end is to search out groups who pant and pine for something they can’t get and to promise to give it to them. Nine times out of ten that promise is worth nothing. The tenth time is made good by looting A to satisfy B. In other words, government is a broker in pillage, and every election is sort of an advance auction sale of stolen goods. – H. L. Mencken • The job market of the future will consist of those jobs that robots cannot perform. Our blue-collar work is pattern recognition, making sense of what you see. Gardeners will still have jobs because every garden is different. The same goes for construction workers. The losers are white-collar workers, low-level accountants, brokers, and agents. – Michio Kaku • The leaders of the establishment and the power brokers in it and the global establishment, they’re never, ever gonna say, “You know what? We were wrong and [Donald] Trump is right. And we need to get behind him.” – Rush Limbaugh • The market gives you the opportunity to arbitrage what the emotional investor will pay or sell at versus the fundamental value of a company, but you’ve got to pull the trigger promptly without hesitating. We’ve disciplined ourselves mentally and prepared ourselves in terms of information, as well as relationships with brokers, to do that. – Richard Chandler • The ‘medium’ is unaware of its attractiveness, that’s all. Everyone loves comics. I’ve proven this to my own satisfaction by handing them out to acountants, insurance brokers, hairdressers, mothers of children, black belts, pop stars, taxi drivers, painters, lesbians, doctors etc. etc. The X-Files, Buffy, the Matrix, X-Men – mainstream culture is not what it once was when science fiction and comics fans huddled in cellars like Gnostic Christians dodging the Romans. We should come up into the light soon before we suffocate. – Grant Morrison • The reason so many financial advisors are called brokers is because they are often broker than you. – Robert Kiyosaki • The same with the mortgage brokers that were selling people mortgages they couldn’t afford. We shouldn’t pay them on each mortgage they write. They should have what they call “skin in the game,” where they’ve got to reimburse us if the guy who sold the mortgage defaults. – Richard Thaler • The US must be the honest broker between the Israelis and the Palestinians. America needs to be to both of them what neither could be to the other: a trusted brokering partner. It is in their interest and our interest for America to play that role. – Jesse Jackson • The way the left is reacting to the death of Fidel Castro up against the incontrovertible facts of who he was, you want to talk about a disconnect. In fact, I don’t think it is a disconnect. I think the left, the power brokers, the leaders, I think they actually did admire the guy. I think this is what they think Castro’s power – I’ve always said, the people have asked me, how do these actors and people and these leftist politicians, how come they admire people like this? I said, “They envy their power.” And I think there may be a lot to that. – Rush Limbaugh • There is no love-broker in the world can more prevail in man’s commendation with woman than report of valor. – William Shakespeare • Those of Manhattan are the brokers on Wall Street and they talk of people who went to the same colleges; those from Queens are margin clerks in the back offices and they speak of friends who live in the same neighborhood. – Jimmy Breslin • Time and again-from the collapse of the Soviet Union to the events of 9/11 to the onset of the Arab Spring-events have caught the experts, whether in government or on the outside, completely by surprise. Business owners with comparable performance records go bust. Brokers lose their clients. Physicians get sued for malpractice. Yet think-tankers and policy wonks continue to opine, never pausing to reflect on-or apologize for-their spotty records. – Andrew Bacevich • To some, the temporal triumph of the Christian community in the world is a sign of God’s favor and the essential righteousness of the Christian position. The irony of the matter, though, is that whenever the Christian community gains worldly power, it nearly always loses its capacity to be the critic of the power and influence it so readily brokers. – Peter J. Gomes • Too many people say to their brokers, I can’t deal with this. Take my money. Do what you want. That’s the worst attitude you can have. – Maria Bartiromo • University administrators are the equivalent of subprime mortgage brokers selling you a story that you should go into debt massively, that it’s not a consumption decision, it’s an investment decision. Actually, no, it’s a bad consumption decision. Most colleges are four-year parties. – Peter Thiel • Up until 35 I had a slightly skewed world view. I honestly believed everybody in the world wanted to make abstract paintings, and people only became lawyers and doctors and brokers and things because they couldn’t make abstract paintings – Frank Stella • Wall Street, with its army of brokers, analysts, and advisers funneling trillions of dollars into mutual funds, hedge funds, and private equity funds, is an elaborate fraud. – Michael Lewis • Wall Street. – The abode of the Brokers and the Broke. – Carolyn Wells • Washington was not just a city of marble buildings and smoke-filled rooms and power brokers, but also a town full of people who do care about each other, in good times and bad. – Andrea Mitchell • We have Christians against Muslims against Jews. They’re making incompatible claims on real estate in the Middle East as though God were some kind of omniscient real estate broker parsing out parcels of land to his chosen flock. People are literally dying over ancient literature. – Sam Harris • We in the press like to say we’re honest brokers of information, and it’s just not true. The press does have an agenda. – Bernard Goldberg • We never will have any prosperity that is free from speculation till we pass a law that every time a broker or person sells something, he has got to have it sitting there in a bucket, or a bag, or a jug, or a cage, or a rat trap, or something, depending on what it is he is selling. We are continually buying something that we never get from a man that never had it. – Will Rogers • We’ve always had a dual role in the region – friend of Israel, and honest broker. We’ve given up the honest broker role completely. – Chris Matthews • What boy well raised can compare with your street gamin who has the knowledge and the shrewdness of a grown-up broker. – Elbert Hubbard • What brands can do brilliantly is broker change in people’s lives. – John Grant • What kind of country is this where a woman can’t weep her heart out on the highways and byways without being tormented by retired bill-brokers! – Samuel Beckett • When a Wall Street analyst or broker expresses optimism, investors must take it with a grain of salt. – Seth Klarman • While no one wishes to incur losses, you couldn’t prove it from an examination of the behavior of most investors and speculators. The speculative urge that lies within most of us is strong; the prospect of a free lunch can be compelling, especially when others have already seemingly partaken. It can be hard to concentrate on potential losses while others are greedily reaching for gains and your broker is on the phone offering shares in the latest “hot” initial public offering. Yet the avoidance of loss is the surest way to ensure a profitable outcome. – Seth Klarman • Why is the man who invests all your money called a broker? – George Carlin • You shouldn’t trust the judgments of stock brokers picking individual stocks. – Gary A. Klein

• A broker is a man who runs your fortune into a shoestring. – Alexander Woollcott • A crafty knave needs no broker. – Horace • A man cannot be a good doctor and keep telephoning his broker between patients nor a good lawyer with his eye on the ticker. – Walter Lippmann • A newly elected representative quickly discovers that his job in government-aside from making new laws-is to act as a broker, middleman, special pleader and finagler. – William Greider • All of Robert Caro’s biographies are exceptional, in part because of Caro’s fundamental ambivalence about power. He sees its necessity and use for getting things done, even as he is often repelled by watching power at close range. His masterpiece on Robert Moses, The Power Broker, describes the evolution of Moses from idealist to pragmatist as he became one of the most powerful figures in the 20th century. – Jeffrey Pfeffer • Ask any real estate broker to name the three most important factors in buying a property, and he’ll say: “Location, location, location.” Now ask him to name the chief justice of the United States Supreme Court, and he’ll say: “Location, location, location.” This tells us that we should not necessarily be paying a whole lot of attention to real estate brokers. – Dave Barry
jQuery(document).ready(function($) var data = action: 'polyxgo_products_search', type: 'Product', keywords: 'Broker', orderby: 'rand', order: 'DESC', template: '1', limit: '68', columns: '4', viewall:'Shop All', ; jQuery.post(spyr_params.ajaxurl,data, function(response) var obj = jQuery.parseJSON(response); jQuery('#thelovesof_broker').html(obj); jQuery('#thelovesof_broker img.swiper-lazy:not(.swiper-lazy-loaded)' ).each(function () var img = jQuery(this); img.attr("src",img.data('src')); img.addClass( 'swiper-lazy-loaded' ); img.removeAttr('data-src'); ); ); ); • But I have never had the privilege of unhappiness in Happy Valley. California is about the good life. So a bad life there seems so much worse than a bad life anywhere else. Quality is an obsession there—good food, good wine, good movies, music, weather, cars. Those sound like the right things to shoot for, but the never-ending quality quest is a lot of pressure when you’re uncertain and disorganized and, not least, broker than broke. Some afternoons a person just wants to rent Die Hard, close the curtains, and have Cheerios for lunch. – Sarah Vowell • Diversification is something that stock brokers came up with to protect themselves, so they wouldn’t get sued for making bad investment choices for clients. Henry Ford never diversified, Bill Gates didn’t diversify. The way to get rich is to put your eggs in one basket, but watch that basket very carefully. And make sure you have the right basket. – Jim Rogers • For you, o broker, there is no other principle but arithmetic. For me, commerce is of trivial import; love, faith, truth of character, the aspiration of man, these are sacred; nor can I detach one duty, like you, from all other duties, and concentrate my forces mechanically on the payment of moneys. – Ralph Waldo Emerson • Full service brokers, in this day and age of low cost mutual funds and discount brokers, are really nothing more than machines for ripping off retail investors. – Joel Spolsky • I am currently reading, “The Broker” by John Grisham. it is alittle slow to start so I will have to let you know if it gets better – John Grisham • I did everything in my power to give my brokers brand identity and clout in the market. I saw my job as parent to build them up and if I took care of them, then they would take care of their customer. – Barbara Corcoran • I do not regard a broker as a member of the human race. – Honore de Balzac • I do not regard the procuring of peace as a matter in which we should play the role of arbiter between different opinions … more that of an honest broker who really wants to press the business forward. – Otto von Bismarck • I do not respect the Dalai Lama. He’s a political power broker. The Dalai Lama is not honorable to me. – Ashin Wirathu • I dont want to just be a broker all my life, I want to lead. – Luis D. Ortiz • I find it funny because people complain about Brooklyn becoming too hip, but would they prefer stock brokers or gunfights or something? – Kemp Muhl • I had probably seven agents by the time I became a legitimate real estate broker. – Barbara Corcoran • I have always been a critic of government policy. I was in government for more than five years. Before that I was a critic. Within the government I was a critic, pushing for reform and always at odds with power brokers within the party. – Jonathan Moyo • I just made a killing in the stock market — I shot my broker. – Henny Youngman • I made a killing on Wall Street a few years ago…I shot my broker. – Groucho Marx • I think America has to do more than be a broker now. Because both the Palestinians are weak and Israel is very weak. – Brent Scowcroft • I think that of most leaders in religion as power brokers. They give orders, in a sense, to an audience every week, and that’s where the definition of God starts. – Norman Lear • I told my broker that as long as he doesn’t tell me where my money should go, I won’t tell him where he should go. – Leopold Fechtner • I was a stock broker once. I think there is an absolute place for market investments. But they should never be the basis of one’s retirement. They should be an additional piece on top of a basic, secure, guaranteed retirement benefit. – Barbara Boxer • I was a trader for a company. That’s different from the brokers who we sort of disdain as sort of just errand boys. – Melvin Van Peebles • I was always an artist. I was a broker to earn a living, but I was always thinking about my art. – Jeff Koons • I would not want to form a partnership with an architect who has only a little knowledge of building or a broker who has a limited knowledge of the stock market. Still, we form what we hope to be permanent relationships in love with people who have hardly any knowledge of what love is. – Leo Buscaglia • I’d like to take a motorcycle trip across Europe, maybe even across China. Of course I’d also like to broker a peace agreement between the Israelis and the Palestinians, but it’s important to put ceilings on one’s ambitions. – Stephen King • If I have something to apologize, I want to be the first one to step up and make that apology. I don’t want anyone to broker it for me. I don’t want anyone to take the hit for me. If I have anything to apologize for, I’m only human. I’m prone to making mistakes. – Michelle Shocked • If the Nation can issue a dollar bond it can issue a dollar bill. The element that makes the bond good makes the bill good also. The difference between the bond and the bill is that the bond lets the money broker collect twice the amount of the bond and an additional 20%. Whereas the currency, the honest sort provided by the Constitution pays nobody but those who contribute in some useful way. It is absurd to say our Country can issue bonds and cannot issue currency. Both are promises to pay, but one fattens the usurer and the other helps the People. – Thomas A. Edison • If you take sales presentations and brokers of commercial real estate and businesses… I’m 70 years old, I’ve never seen one I thought was even within hailing distance of objective truth…. ‘incentive-caused bias,’ causes this terrible abuse. And many of the people who are doing it you would be glad to have married into your family compared to what you’re otherwise going to get. – Charlie Munger • If your broker or investment advisor is not familiar with the concept of standard deviation of returns, get a new one. – William J. Bernstein • I’m beginning to wonder about my broker. Yesterday I told him to buy a hundred shares of A.T.&T. He said, ‘Would you spell that?’ – Robert Orben • In the commercial real estate business, brokers spearhead major accounts. But they wouldn’t have customers without the people who oversee construction. – Roger Staubach • Intelligence, goodness, humanity, excitement, serenity. Over time, these are the things that change the musculature of your face, as do laughter, and animation, and especially whatever peace you can broker with the person inside. It’s furrow, pinch, and judgement that make us look older – our mothers were right. They said that if you made certain faces, they would stick, and they do. But our mothers forgot that faces of kindness and integrity stick as well. – Anne Lamott • Invest less at the end of the month. Brokers tend to push stocks at the end of the month in an effort to match or surpass their previous month’s sales. – Nancy Dunnan • Israel must never be expected to jeopardize her security: if she was ever foolish enough to do so, and then suffered for it, the backlash against both honest brokers and Palestinians would be immense – ‘land for peace’ must also bring peace. – Margaret Thatcher • It is curious that Christianity, which is idealism, is sturdily defended by the brokers, and steadily attacked by the idealists. – Ralph Waldo Emerson • It’s common knowledge that a large percentage of Wall Street brokers use astrology. – Donald T. Regan • Japan should get more involved in mediating disputes between countries and seek to play the role of a peace broker. To make this possible, we must train people so they have a solid understanding of international politics and great negotiation skills. – Sadako Ogata • Kyoto costs a lot, does nothing to prevent calamity, and pays no compensation in the event of loss. If my insurance broker offered that sort of policy, I would not carry insurance. Instead what my broker offers is a policy that costs a little and pays full compensation in the event of loss. If someone wants to propose that as a policy on global warming, I’m all in favour. – Ross McKitrick • Many of those whose task it is to broker the truth of God to the people of God in the churches have now redefined the pastoral task such that theology has become an embarrassing encumbrance or a matter of which they have little knowledge; and many in the Church have now turned in upon themselves and substituted for the knowledge of God a search for the knowledge of self. – David F. Wells • Maybe you’ll take the cash out. So a credit card company or a bank that goes into the business of saying we’re going to be the broker, we’re going to sell you a mortgage that you’re going to be able to pay off, we’re going to help you reduce your credit card debt, we’re going to help you save for retirement, we’re going to put you into mutual funds that have low fees rather than high fees. – Richard Thaler • Mutual funds charge 2% per year and then brokers switch people between funds, costing another 3-4 percentage points. The poor guy in the general public is getting a terrible product from the professionals. I think it’s disgusting. It’s much better to be part of a system that delivers value to the people who buy the product. But if it makes money, we tend to do it in this country. – Charlie Munger • My rather puritanical view is that any investment manager, whether operating as broker, investment counselor of a trust department, investment company, etc., should be willing to state unequivocally what he is going to attempt to accomplish and how he proposes to measure the extent to which he gets the job done. – Warren Buffett • National security advisors, like White House Chiefs of Staff, their job generally if they`re – if they`re competent and qualified and effective is to be honest brokers in the White House. – Lawrence O’Donnell • Never call your broker on Monday. Out of courtesy and common sense, wait until Tuesday. A good broker is focused on the opening of the market – at home and around the world – and on getting back into a business frame of mind after the weekend. – Nancy Dunnan • Never take advice from anyone in a tie. They’ll bankrupt you. Don’t ask a general for advice on war, and don’t ask a broker for advice on money. – Nassim Nicholas Taleb • Now I’m in real trouble. First my laundry called and said they lost my shirt and then my broker said the same thing. – Leopold Fechtner • on Broadway money rules. Like a host of vultures, the ticket brokers, the speculators, the craft unions, the agents, the backers, the real estate owners move in on the creative body and take their bite. The world of dreams breathes in an iron lung; and without this mechanical pumping it dies. – Marya Mannes • Once the brokerage house, rather than the bank, became the locus for American savings, that money would find its way into the stock market, because the broker was someone with a much higher tolerance for risk than the banker. – Ron Chernow • One day I visited a guy who had made a fortune as a broker. He was sitting in his office with his computer. I hire people from here and make deals from this room, he told me. Then he took me to the trading room. Nobody was talking to anybody else, the place was silent as a tomb, they were all sitting there watching their terminals – a great word, terminal. I tell you, it scares the crap out of me. – Studs Terkel • One of the ironies of the stock market is the emphasis on activity. Brokers, using terms such as ‘marketability’ and ‘liquidity,’ sing the praises of companies with high share turnover… but investors should understand that what is good for the croupier is not good for the customer. A hyperactive stock market is the pick pocket of enterprise. – Warren Buffett • One of the really positive things about minority government is that there is the necessity to broker policy positions. What happens is you get a hybrid of what a single party might do. And I don’t think that is a bad thing. – Kathleen Wynne • Our standard prescription for the know-nothing investor with a long-term time horizon is a no-load index fund. I think that works better than relying on your stock broker. The people who are telling you to do something else are all being paid by commissions or fees. The result is that while index fund investing is becoming more and more popular, by and large it’s not the individual investors that are doing it. It’s the institutions. – Charlie Munger • Panic in Wall Street, brokers feeling melancholy. – Scott Joplin • People who invest make money for themselves; people who speculate make money for their brokers. And that, in turn, is why Wall Street perennially downplays the durable virtues of investing and hypes the gaudy appeal of speculation. – Benjamin Graham • Progressive visions pale and are smashed next to the normalization of market-driven government policies that wipe out pensions, eliminate quality health care, punish unions, demonize public servants, raise college tuition, and produce a harsh world of joblessness – all the while giving billions and huge bonuses, instead of prison sentences… to those bankers and investment brokers who were responsible for the 2008 meltdown of the economy and the loss of homes for millions of Americans. – Henry Giroux • Quinn’s First Law of Investing is never to buy anything whose price you can’t follow in the newspapers. An investment without a public marketplace attracts the fabulists the way picnics attract ants. Stock brokers and financial planners can tell you anything they want, because no one really knows what’s true. The First Corollary to Quinn’s First Law states that, even when the price is in the newspapers, you shouldn’t buy anything too complex to explain to the average 12-year-old. – Jane Bryant Quinn • Ron Reagan amazingly qualifies as an honest broker. I asked him if he was a mamas boy and he said no, more of a papas boy. At the same time he was willing to say that his father had many shortcomings and needed to be held accountable. – Eugene Jarecki • So I conjured one of the brokers and promised him my soul if he’d protect her. (Zephyra) You can’t do that. Only a demon can. (Stryker) You’re such a brainiac, baby. And to think, I thought I married you for those amazing abs. Who knew all that brainpower was buried under those bulging biceps? (Zephyra) – Sherrilyn Kenyon • Stuyvesant chats with Kelly and Katz, The professor warms to the broker, And life is good in the brotherhood Of an air-conditioned smoker. – Ogden Nash • The average person can’t really trust anybody. They can’t trust a broker, because the broker is interested in churning commissions. They can’t trust a mutual fund, because the mutual fund is interested in gathering a lot of assets and keeping them. And now it’s even worse because even the most sophisticated people have no idea what’s going on. – Seth Klarman • The Carlyle Group is the most politically connected investment firm in the world. The company has mastered the art of influence peddling on a global scale, hiring executives and consultants ranging from Republican power broker James Baker and former president George Herbert Walker Bush to foreign leaders like former British prime minister John Major and former Philippine president Fidel Ramos. – William Hartung • The Dutch must be understood as they really are, the Middle Persons in Trade, the Factors and Brokers of Europe… they buy to sell again, take in to send out again, and the greatest Part of their vast Commerce consists in being supply’d from All Parts of the World, that they may supply All th World Again. – Daniel Defoe • The financial collapse of 2008 got its start with predatory mortgages, that weren’t sold by community banks and credit unions, they were sold by fly by night mortgage brokers who had almost zero federal oversight and then the big banks looked over, saw the profit potential and they wanted it bad. So they jumped in and sold millions of these terrible mortgages while the bank regulators just looked the other way. – Elizabeth Warren • The general systems of money management today require people to pretend to do something they can’t do and like something they don’t. It’s a funny business because on a net basis, the whole investment management business together gives no value added to all buyers combined. That’s the way it has to work. Mutual funds charge two percent per year and then brokers switch people between funds, costing another three to four percentage points. The poor guy in the general public is getting a terrible product from the professionals. – John C. Bogle • The government consists of a gang of men exactly like you and me. They have, taking one with another, no special talent for the business of government; they have only a talent for getting and holding office. Their principal device to that end is to search out groups who pant and pine for something they can’t get and to promise to give it to them. Nine times out of ten that promise is worth nothing. The tenth time is made good by looting A to satisfy B. In other words, government is a broker in pillage, and every election is sort of an advance auction sale of stolen goods. – H. L. Mencken • The job market of the future will consist of those jobs that robots cannot perform. Our blue-collar work is pattern recognition, making sense of what you see. Gardeners will still have jobs because every garden is different. The same goes for construction workers. The losers are white-collar workers, low-level accountants, brokers, and agents. – Michio Kaku • The leaders of the establishment and the power brokers in it and the global establishment, they’re never, ever gonna say, “You know what? We were wrong and [Donald] Trump is right. And we need to get behind him.” – Rush Limbaugh • The market gives you the opportunity to arbitrage what the emotional investor will pay or sell at versus the fundamental value of a company, but you’ve got to pull the trigger promptly without hesitating. We’ve disciplined ourselves mentally and prepared ourselves in terms of information, as well as relationships with brokers, to do that. – Richard Chandler • The ‘medium’ is unaware of its attractiveness, that’s all. Everyone loves comics. I’ve proven this to my own satisfaction by handing them out to acountants, insurance brokers, hairdressers, mothers of children, black belts, pop stars, taxi drivers, painters, lesbians, doctors etc. etc. The X-Files, Buffy, the Matrix, X-Men – mainstream culture is not what it once was when science fiction and comics fans huddled in cellars like Gnostic Christians dodging the Romans. We should come up into the light soon before we suffocate. – Grant Morrison • The reason so many financial advisors are called brokers is because they are often broker than you. – Robert Kiyosaki • The same with the mortgage brokers that were selling people mortgages they couldn’t afford. We shouldn’t pay them on each mortgage they write. They should have what they call “skin in the game,” where they’ve got to reimburse us if the guy who sold the mortgage defaults. – Richard Thaler • The US must be the honest broker between the Israelis and the Palestinians. America needs to be to both of them what neither could be to the other: a trusted brokering partner. It is in their interest and our interest for America to play that role. – Jesse Jackson • The way the left is reacting to the death of Fidel Castro up against the incontrovertible facts of who he was, you want to talk about a disconnect. In fact, I don’t think it is a disconnect. I think the left, the power brokers, the leaders, I think they actually did admire the guy. I think this is what they think Castro’s power – I’ve always said, the people have asked me, how do these actors and people and these leftist politicians, how come they admire people like this? I said, “They envy their power.” And I think there may be a lot to that. – Rush Limbaugh • There is no love-broker in the world can more prevail in man’s commendation with woman than report of valor. – William Shakespeare • Those of Manhattan are the brokers on Wall Street and they talk of people who went to the same colleges; those from Queens are margin clerks in the back offices and they speak of friends who live in the same neighborhood. – Jimmy Breslin • Time and again-from the collapse of the Soviet Union to the events of 9/11 to the onset of the Arab Spring-events have caught the experts, whether in government or on the outside, completely by surprise. Business owners with comparable performance records go bust. Brokers lose their clients. Physicians get sued for malpractice. Yet think-tankers and policy wonks continue to opine, never pausing to reflect on-or apologize for-their spotty records. – Andrew Bacevich • To some, the temporal triumph of the Christian community in the world is a sign of God’s favor and the essential righteousness of the Christian position. The irony of the matter, though, is that whenever the Christian community gains worldly power, it nearly always loses its capacity to be the critic of the power and influence it so readily brokers. – Peter J. Gomes • Too many people say to their brokers, I can’t deal with this. Take my money. Do what you want. That’s the worst attitude you can have. – Maria Bartiromo • University administrators are the equivalent of subprime mortgage brokers selling you a story that you should go into debt massively, that it’s not a consumption decision, it’s an investment decision. Actually, no, it’s a bad consumption decision. Most colleges are four-year parties. – Peter Thiel • Up until 35 I had a slightly skewed world view. I honestly believed everybody in the world wanted to make abstract paintings, and people only became lawyers and doctors and brokers and things because they couldn’t make abstract paintings – Frank Stella • Wall Street, with its army of brokers, analysts, and advisers funneling trillions of dollars into mutual funds, hedge funds, and private equity funds, is an elaborate fraud. – Michael Lewis • Wall Street. – The abode of the Brokers and the Broke. – Carolyn Wells • Washington was not just a city of marble buildings and smoke-filled rooms and power brokers, but also a town full of people who do care about each other, in good times and bad. – Andrea Mitchell • We have Christians against Muslims against Jews. They’re making incompatible claims on real estate in the Middle East as though God were some kind of omniscient real estate broker parsing out parcels of land to his chosen flock. People are literally dying over ancient literature. – Sam Harris • We in the press like to say we’re honest brokers of information, and it’s just not true. The press does have an agenda. – Bernard Goldberg • We never will have any prosperity that is free from speculation till we pass a law that every time a broker or person sells something, he has got to have it sitting there in a bucket, or a bag, or a jug, or a cage, or a rat trap, or something, depending on what it is he is selling. We are continually buying something that we never get from a man that never had it. – Will Rogers • We’ve always had a dual role in the region – friend of Israel, and honest broker. We’ve given up the honest broker role completely. – Chris Matthews • What boy well raised can compare with your street gamin who has the knowledge and the shrewdness of a grown-up broker. – Elbert Hubbard • What brands can do brilliantly is broker change in people’s lives. – John Grant • What kind of country is this where a woman can’t weep her heart out on the highways and byways without being tormented by retired bill-brokers! – Samuel Beckett • When a Wall Street analyst or broker expresses optimism, investors must take it with a grain of salt. – Seth Klarman • While no one wishes to incur losses, you couldn’t prove it from an examination of the behavior of most investors and speculators. The speculative urge that lies within most of us is strong; the prospect of a free lunch can be compelling, especially when others have already seemingly partaken. It can be hard to concentrate on potential losses while others are greedily reaching for gains and your broker is on the phone offering shares in the latest “hot” initial public offering. Yet the avoidance of loss is the surest way to ensure a profitable outcome. – Seth Klarman • Why is the man who invests all your money called a broker? – George Carlin • You shouldn’t trust the judgments of stock brokers picking individual stocks. – Gary A. Klein

Nigerian musician and activist, Charly Boy has said that the Federal Government’s decision to establish a Fulani radio station is going to lead to trouble. The veteran singer and self-acclaimed ‘Area Fada’ made this known via his Instagram page on Monday, May 27, 2019.  According to him, all past presidents who were from different regions of the country didn’t establish and radio station from their part of the country, but it is suspicious that President Buhari has decided to set up one from his Fulani speaking region. “OBJ was President for 8 years him no set up Oduduwa radio. GEJ was President for 5 years, there was no Niger Delta radio… Buhari President, under 4 years has opened Fulani radio… Where do you think all of this is heading to. My people, these people don enter our 18. Let’s all adjust ourselves. I smell a truckload of wahala coming,” he wrote. Recall that a week ago, the Federal Government reportedly acquired an Amplitude Modulation radio broadcast licence to reach and educate herdsmen across the country. This has however been received with diverse reactions from Nigerians.
