Topic

Other / unclassifiable — a classification, not a measurement. An on-box language model (Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-FP8, prompt version 1) read this channel’s own recent posts on 12 September 2026 and assigned it the closest of 31 fixed categories, at 65% confidence. This is a model’s judgement about what the channel is likely to be about, not a fact this register measured the way a subscriber count or a view count is measured — it can be revised on a later pass, and it carries no weight anywhere else on this page. How this classification works, and why it has no browse page of its own yet.

12 measurements spanning 40 days, net +13. Dots are measurements; the straight line between them is drawn to join them, not to claim we know the path taken in between — snapshots are recorded only when a count changes, so gaps mean “no change observed”, never “interpolated”. The vertical axis spans 6,873–6,898 and does not start at zero.

Engagement

52 posts held, back to 22 July 2026 — the reader has not yet reached the start of this channel’s public history, so older posts may sit further back, unread. Read across 12 pages of Telegram’s post history, 20 posts per page.

Nothing published in the last 30 days. ERR and ER are rolling 30-day measures, so there is nothing to compute — we hold 52 posts for this entry, the most recent from 20 August 2026. An engagement rate over an empty window would be a number about nothing.

Reaction mix

183 reactions across 42 posts, in 13 distinct kinds. The most used accounts for 50.3% of them.

No sentiment is inferred, and none should be read in. This table is ordered by count and by nothing else. Emoji do not carry stable meaning across languages or communities — 🙏 is thanks in one channel and mourning in another — so we publish which ones were pressed and how often, and pass no judgement on what an audience meant by them.

Precision. Telegram publishes reaction counts per emoji and short-forms each one — 4.34K, 1.2M — so any single kind at or above 1,000 reaches us at three significant figures, and only counts below 1,000 are exact. The shares above are ratios of those figures and carry the same error. This is also why the total here can differ slightly from a reaction total printed elsewhere on the page: both are sums of the same rounded parts, taken over samples with different edges.

Coverage. Reactions were read on 44 of the 52 sampled posts in this sample. Summed by Telegram’s own count on each post — not by adding up the per-emoji breakdown above — those same posts carry 183 reactions in total: the kind of figure the paragraph above means by “a reaction total printed elsewhere on the page”.

Measured over the 52 most recent posts we hold, published 22 July 2026 to 20 August 2026, using the newest reading held for each. Telegram Stars are excluded: they are a payment, not a reaction, and they have their own section.

Most times we pray for good health for all we cared about. What's more top of mind now is clarity of the mind so as not to make stupid tech implementations.

"Something is breaking in America’s investor heavy housing markets. The more investors that bought into a ZIP code during the boom, the bigger home prices have declined since. Some of the hardest-hit neighborhoods in Atlanta, Baltimore, and Phoenix had investors buying 40%+ of homes in 2022. Many of those ZIP codes are now down 15-20%+ in value. Meanwhile, the bottom right of the chart tells a different story. M…

"There’s a lot of competition for capital now, whether it’s from tech companies or the federal government. It’s easy to think that the AI buildout is “crowding out” government debt. But I think that’s backwards. We’re 5+ years into an economic expansion and the federal government is running massive deficits, even as inflation remains well above the Fed’s target (while waiting for yet another “supply shock” to ease –…

This is interesting. Kind of means Fed is a little limited. — "anks used to be half of US corporate lending. Now they are under a fifth. Bank lending has fallen from about 48% of nonfinancial corporate debt in the mid-1970s to under 20% today. That credit did not disappear. It moved into bond markets and non-bank lenders that sit outside the banking system. For decades a credit cycle turned through banks, where the…

My friend Cents of Independence shares her 3 sources of income. I have always been telling my readers: You would want to think about the nature of your income. Some income streams can be conservative and passive, but you may not have enough. Some looks good on paper but in reality is very volatile, and may be high effort to be sustainable. Work income gives you reliability, but it takes something off your time. Do…

Came across this video of this couple the Donegans sharing how to extract withdrawal from their portfolio by selling units. By talking to people, many felt that selling units make them feel like a failure about themselves. They also shared the first time they sell units to get income and how they felt. For those interested in income spending. Starts at 8 mins https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FmMkOQ0gSnQ

Maximus probably gets the example right though it may be misleading to think a SWR will only grow at 5% p.a. the SWR is testing a range of 30-70 year historical returns after all. If you don't plan conservatively with your dividend strategy, you will derive a low capital amount but if you do, the capital amount is more significant. The crux of SWR is to size your capital against the most challenging income spending…

Saw some responses to a share of my comment on Michael's post yesterday. This one is from Paul, the owner of the Dividend Investment chat. Just one to point out something here. You can't always say that a strategy has an advantage over the other without pointing out the disadvantage. If a company always default to a higher dividend payout, it is losing out on a part of its earnings that can reinvest at its ROE or R…

Showing the 12 most recent of 52 posts we hold for @investmentmoats. View and reaction counts are the latest single reading for each post, not a live figure, and a recent post is still accumulating both. A view count marked ≈ was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it — t.me prints views in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so ≈1,200,000 means somewhere between 1,150,000 and 1,249,999. Unmarked counts are exact. Text is reproduced from the public post preview and truncated for length.

Mentions

Named by 1 registered channel — every channel on the register whose own posts have named this one, by its current username or any other username it currently holds, merged from two separately captured readings of the same fact so a namer caught by only one of them is not missed and a namer both caught is not counted twice. A username this channel has since dropped is not matched — that handle may belong to someone else now, and crediting today’s namer to yesterday’s owner would misattribute it.

Named by

Channels on the register whose posts name this channel's handle.

A mention is a weaker signal than a forward and is counted separately for that reason — naming a channel is not republishing it, and a handle in a post body is easy to place deliberately. The post counts beside each row below are distinct posts in which the handle appeared, from posts we have read on both sides — the “Named by N registered channels” figure above is a different count, of distinct NAMING CHANNELS rather than posts, and is not the sum of the rows under it.

Appears in Telegram’s recommendations for other channels

The reverse of the list above, and a different kind of signal. This does not require this channel to have ever been asked about directly — each row below is a channel we DID ask Telegram about, whose Telegram-generated list happened to include this one. A channel can appear here with an empty list above it, because being named by someone else’s query is independent of having been queried itself.
