I know you guys rarely, if ever, dabble in hypotheticals or far-fetchery
but the anonymous idiots got me to thinking
I know - -> run for the millers
i'm sure you're familiar with the header
BUTTER = cars, clothes, jewelry, etc., things that depreciate after you buy it
GUNS = stocks, bonds, real estate, art work, etc., things that appreciate in value
obviously, they believe we were more butter than guns last year and while they do make a couple of points - we lost to some dogs and beat a few too - but smoke and mirrors would more describe my poker game than anything related to last years team , , , so I looked for a way to dispel this notion going forward , , , and a way to track it like the dow jones or s&p . . . . .
it took a minute - not sure it was worth it - but it works, hypothetically
given 100m to invest in at least 75% of the current roster - 40/53
what would these guys actually look like as appreciable assets
and could they make you any money (exceed 2016 prod.)
here's the portfolio, have some music with your brew

godchaux
