Centrino - My average price for $MO is 42$, back in October laser year. Last week, it reached 52$. I.e. the yield decreased. Would you keep making DCA monthly, after such an upside? Or temporarily pause buying, waiting that the price drops back? Sheep Stocks -  will Waterford win the All Ireland? And if Waterford GAA had a public company that paid out a dividend would you consider buying it? Tiago Dias -  Do you think we will see tax-advantaged accounts like Roth IRA and 401Ks  appear in Europe anytime soon? Or do you think the Pan-European Pension Products will remove the political will to implement such a solution, leaving us stuck to chronically underperforming products? Celtic Investor - If ye could only hold 3 stocks, 1 European, 1 US and 1 from the rest of the world, what would they be and why?
