      made. My portfolio is rounding up to almost
      a million, and I have realized that when a
      stock makes it to the news. Chances are
      you're quite late to the party, the idea is to
      get in early on blue chips before it becomes
      public. There are lots of life changing
      opportunities in the market, and maximize
      it.

    Love your content! Never a boring moment even when it seems like it to you guys. I see you guys dont wear safety glasses or have ear plugs handy. I worked on B-52 bombers in the air force and we never left without our safety gear, including gloves. Every body thinks an accident just happens or there was one mistake right before it happens. Not true. Since we worked on aircraft that could carry nuclear bombs, it was drilled in us that there is no such thing as an accident. There is always multiple series of activities prior to an " accident ". That includes no safety glasses or gloves used . We would have a bottle of saline solution on our work truck for fluid issues in our eyes. Im sure you dont want any of your guys to lose a finger or eye due to safety concerns. Keep up the great videos! My unit. 19th bomb wing.

    • @straybullitt
      @straybullitt Před 28 dny +4

      It is due to the fact that we have millions and millions of miles of roads, bridges, interstates, and highways to maintain. The more axles, the more evenly that the weight is distributed across the roadway, resulting in less damage.
      You guys don't seriously believe that you somehow stumbled across the secret to building lorries that can carry heavy loads on a dual axle, do you??? 🤠

    To fix your tank problems find a welder that does fabrications on aluminum.
