Spin - off - Tattoos?

[Poohforyou]

None, not a fan.

I think it would be even more profitable to invest in an ear lobe reconstructive company because of the recent ear gauge trend. Makes me shudder to think what ears look like when they take the spacer thing out.

I don't mind tattoos. I really like one design with a set of small, black birds that I would like to put on my collarbone or back shoulder. But I'm afraid of regretting my decision in later years.

I can deal with most piercings though I wold not want my daughter to get any type of facial piercing but the ear gauges gross me out so bad. At the supermarket I shop at one of the dairy aisle workers has them and I have to avoid even looking at him because it makes me ill.

I have 2- on one ankle is a heart and rose with my daughters name and on the other is a rose with my godsons name that passed away. In Nov when my daughter turns 18 we are getting matching Deathly Hallows tattoos on our ankles and she is getting "nevertheless she persisted" on her foot.

Uh, no, Same line. Same investment. Still profitable.

My doctors suggested I might try the laser removal surgery for the place left behind by having a trache. I haven't looked into it, because it doesn't bother me, but I've thought about it.

 

[North of Mouse]

None. But I have stock in a company that makes lasers used to remove tattoos. I think in 10 years, business will be booming as the tattoo trend fades and people tire of their body art.

Or the skin starts sagging!

 

[declansdad]

Yup. It has been a profitable investment.

So your are saying business is booming now, you don't need to wait for 10 years.

I have 5. 3 are on my head; neck, behind my ear and back of my skull (requires a re-shaving to fully see it). People will often say "I bet those hurt!" They did not, but they did take my breath away! All 3 times I kept forgetting to breath as the gun rattled my skull and I so badly didn't want to move!

A lady I work with got a Prince Albert tattoo 22 years ago when she was in the Air Force. As she put it, "he wasn't looking so royal" after she hit age 40. He was sagging in strange places.

Now and into the future. A lot of folks are getting tattoos. Even if most still like them 20 years, that is still a big market for removal.

When you were called out on this a couple months ago you had no intentions of investing. Yet now it is a "profitable investment". How interesting.

Even if I hadn't, it would still be a profitable investment for those who did buy. I've been very lucky, only thing I ever lost money on was the tech fund I bought in 1998. Now, some investments just barely held their own, but they didn't lose money.

So why not just say that in the first place.

It also seems that there is some question about your investment.

If you say so.

 

[eastendlights]

No, will never happen and I don't like them on anyone.

 

[prprincess]

I don't have any, but I think about one to commemorate my surviving cancer all the time. I've been sitting on an amazing design for a while, and my husband's best friend is an amazing tattoo artist, but I don't know. I'm so scared to commit because I don't want to regret it in the future.

So this isn't true?

I've dated a couple of guys that had gauged ears in the past and I would have never known, except from old pictures, I think that look has passed its prime already, but a few years. I was shocked they rebounded. Both when you looked at them long enough had what looked like slits in their ears, but not the big gaping holes I would have thought they'd have.

 

[tvguy]

So this isn't true?

It wasn't then, it is now, not by my choice or action, but by the choice of the fund managers of the mutual fund I have owned for about 10 years.

What's a Prince Albert tattoo? I've heard of the piercing, but I'm pretty sure I'm going to get in trouble for mentioning it. Also, if she's a woman, then I'm going to get in even more trouble for wanting to ask additional questions.

And women don't usually fall apart at 40. I'm not there yet, but nothing has started sagging and I'm thinner than in high school, so not really sure what your point is.
