Quote: MDawgElaine Wynn. R.I.P.
I actually knew her, because I hold a large amount of Wynn stock and when she and her husband were fighting for control of the company I called in to proxy all my shares to her side, and her attorney transferred me to talk to her directly. Then I met her a few times at social events, including at the Resorts World VIP opening, and she remembered me.
Weinberg eventually did get the boot, and Elaine did take over.

You must have made quite an impression, to have a restaurant there named after you.


Dip buying like I do for trades is great, but trying to catch a falling knife for investment purposes isn't always the best idea.
Breakouts do happen!

I had to get FINRA and another Federal agency involved to collect some $25,000 Capital One owed my Mom's estate, and Discover Card and I parted company years ago. Discover uses a different payment method from other charge cards, and I found it didn't suit my needs at all.

I am pretty sure I have a Discover card and have for probably close to 20 years. I don't believe that I have ever used it.
At one point many years ago I probably had close to 45 active credit cards. I would only carry three or so but every time I opened my safe there would be a brick of credit cards rubber banded together that was probably close to three inches thick.
I used to take them to the gas station and run each one for a tiny bit of gas but that was too time consuming. Now I just run a dollar or so on each one on one of my merchant accounts bi annually.
As far as this takeover I wonder what happens to Capital One accounts belonging to someone who was terminated at Discover, or vice versa. I assume in this situation Capital One takes the driver’s seat and would terminate Discover accounts for anyone previously terminated by Capital One (for cause, not merely lack of use), but won’t molest Capital One accounts for those previously terminated by Discover.
Quote: MDawgI have many sock drawered credit cards too but I use each one at least every six months. I’d be surprised if a card you haven’t used in years is still open.
I think they are as they send me new ones when the expiration date approaches.
