Where to pee in Roma Termini? McDonald's :)

Where to pee in Rome Termini? McDonald's :)

Rome is one of our favorite cities in the world. It has so much history and "present" that it will be a fantastic destination for work and leisure in the rest of the 2020s. Rome is clean and feels safe in 2025. Its weather in January is mild and pleasant, in the 50s without practically any wind or rain. 

If you find yourself in Rome's main train station, Roma Termini, note that using the restroom will cost you 1.20 euros. For Americans, it is hard to get used to the idea of paying for using the restroom. The 1.20 euro fee feels steep. It can add up quickly if you are with a group or family. Recommendation, go to the McDonald's across from the station (not the one inside), buy a snack, and get a code to use the restroom. You can buy a plain hamburger or a small chicken sandwich for 1.80 euros and use the restrooms. 

Anyway, here's our list of "must-see" attractions in Rome:

1. Colosseum. Only remaining Ancient Wonder of the World. 

2. Palatine Hill. Founding site of Rome with views of the Forum and Circus Maximus.

3. Piazza Venezia. Impressive building and nice panoramic views.

4. Trevi Fountain. Cute tourist trap.

5. Pantheon. An ancient temple dedicated to all gods, with its iconic dome and oculus.

6. Vatican City and Museum. Admire Michelangelo’s Pietà, climb the dome for panoramic views, and explore the crypts below. Sistine Chapel (Vatican Museums), see Michelangelo’s iconic frescoes, including The Creation of Adam, and Leonardo DaVinci's Last Supper.

7. Trastevere. Charming neighborhood for a weekend stroll, enjoying traditional Roman cuisine.

Tips for Visiting Rome

Visit popular landmarks early in the morning or late afternoon to avoid crowds.

Pre-book tickets for major attractions like the Colosseum and Vatican Museums to save time.

Transportation. Master the buses and metro. If riding the metro, beware of pickpocketing. 

Local Food: Try Roman classics like cacio e pepe, carbonara, and supplì.

When will the Tesla bubble burst?

December 11, 2024 When will the Tesla bubble burst?  We don't know Fools rush in. It's impossible to know exactly when the Tesla bubble will finally burst. Unfortunately for us at Creatix, we began shorting Tesla too soon. We are down almost 40% on our position as of today. We are not fooling ourselves thinking that we were ever make money on the short position. We truly doubt that Tesla can go down 40% any time soon.  We would love to add to the short position, but it would exceed our $3,000 limit on the stupid bets that we do for fun. We're not Mr. Beast. We have a very limited budget for ridiculousness. We would love to short Tesla tomorrow morning at the ridiculous share price of $424. Tesla is trading at an incredible 116 times earnings, which gives Tesla a market capitalization of $1.32 Trillion. Elon Musk added today $13.4 billion to his fortune. Yes, $13 billion in one day. Yesterday, he had added $11 billion. Yes, that's $24 billion in 2 days.  Six months ago, ...

Will prices go up or down during the Second Coming of Trump?

December 12, 2024 Will prices go up or down during the Second Coming of Trump? President-elect Donald Trump has acknowledged the difficulty of reducing grocery prices, stating, "It's hard to bring things down once they're up."  Lower Energy Costs and Better Logistics Trump hopes that lower energy costs and improved supply chains may prevent significant price increases on food. However, many economists believe that Trump's tariffs on foreign countries and massive deportation of illegal immigrants, which include millions of undocumented farm workers, will increase food prices.  Additionally, while Trump emphasizes the role that potentially lower energy prices may have in food costs, experts note that energy constitutes a relatively small portion of food production expenses. Energy prices may also increase despite experts forecasting that they will stay relatively low or go further down. After all, economists and financial experts are wrong often, almost all of the t...
