Hi Roland
Please consider supporting this No Loss Lottery Project. https://leofinance.io/@shortsegments/leofinance-lions-community-based-promotion-of-cubfinance
A reblog and a supportive comment would be great!
Also if you would support the No Loss Lottery that would be great. I could use some help building up the reserve, non-ticket purchase monies which increase the pot size to increase the prize win by smaller accounts entered in the Lottery. There are over 120 entries!

Hmmmm in a world dominated by corona and lockdowns the ability of the US to print cash continues to make it a dominant currency I think. During time’s of uncertainty, people turn to what they know, the US Dollar. Only the Awoke turn to cryptocurrency. :)

Agree that the S&P 500 is the strongest group of companies and a good investment choice.
