Coming out of facing alot, I knew two things about the stock market: It caused the Great Depression, and the fastest way to make a million on the markets was to start with two million. And then the Great Recession happened only a few years later. So yeah, I wish someone had better explained it to me earlier in life. Having a good entry and exit strategy will make you succeed in the stock market.

Exactly, most of the investors pays more attention to the profit aspect forgetting that the market involves ups and down. securing your financial position requires lots of patience and proper education on the market so as to know the right profitable stock to buy and invest in. I made over $260k in profits, from just the Q4 of 2021. Investing in the stock market is most profitable when you understand how the market actually works.

There is definitely cause to be protective and staying agile.

One reason so many people don't want to take the low paying jobs is that they keep expecting more work out of people while treating them worse (with many protection that had been around for decades being eroded) -- to the point some people who could have held such jobs a decade or two ago now would be physically unable to do what is demanded. Of course, this has a snowballing effect as increasing understaffed employers end up push their remaining employees that much harder (often while providing less service to customers) to pick the slack created by unfilled positions -- which then makes even more people unable or unwilling to work in such businesses (and yes, there is no question as I'm concerned that both unwillingness and inability to meet demands are factors effecting different individuals).

There’s been a total collapse of the global economic system? I must have missed it. So far we have Reagan era inflation levels, which the fed is fighting by raising interest rates. Likely this will cause a recession, but the fed is trying to move slow enough to have a “soft landing” and avoid an actual recession. None of this is good, and we still don’t know what will happen, but how exactly has a prediction of a depression and total collapse of the global system been vindicated?

The biggest issue in the west (especially the USA) is the insane cost of housing. There are three basic things you shouldn't fuck with as a nation. Food, Water, and housing. If people can't afford a roof over their head they will become desperate fast. Two generations of adults in the US are slowly realizing that home ownership is now only for the rich. As a person in his 20s who would like to own property one day, I truly believe this won't stand. How will the rich justify owning several real estate properties "as an investment" while middle class families have to rent apartments. At the very least this will effect birthrates since who could afford a child if you put half your income to housing. But I am personally hoping it leads to some real progressive policies that limit the use of housing as an investment asset to those that actually live in the homes.

So much good would come from regulating housing market a little bit. Make it impossible for big corporations to buy entire blocks and stuff. Allow people to rent out their besements and extra rooms of course, or if you happen to be 2 homeowners you can rent out your extra home. But any more than that takes a very big toll on the market and unnecessarily prevents the average man from owning. Everyone (as many as possible) should own their home, even if it's just a small apartment.

It's just weird to me that they'd make the setting of rapid climate change, but only halfway portray it. The desert map for sure would be scattered with refugee camps or deserted as people flee to less extreme climates. The massive migrations alone would cause upsets in power, changes in regimes, and potential for conflict and war would increase well on it's own as nations either crumble or grow exponentially stronger, and the remaining stable world powers imperialize and start proxy conflicts in the theaters of strife

This subject is common knowledge and has been for decades. It was clear by 1992. I wrote about it extensively beginning in 2004. The problem is that it's impossible to tell the public anything depressing about the future unless they can find discounts (opportunity) in it - and no institution has an interest (gain) from forcing costs of adaptation on the public when they can't 'feel' the causality. So this is why people, marriages, businesses, industries, economics, countries, empires and civilization fail: everyone prefers managed decline over the costs of adaptation that would cause nearly all members to alter their status hierarchies - which is the human system of internal measurement.

Well, PEPCON was an actual rocket fuel factory (technically, the oxidizer, but it makes fire go crazy, so close enough) they stored massive stockpiles of their product all over the plant, in open barrels (collecting dust) after the Challenger explosion and NASA (their only customer) shut down all flights for months. A mountain of highly volatile chemicals left sitting around. Unsurprisingly, it all went off when some moron decided it was a good idea to do some welding on one of the metal walls and some stray sparks caught fire in the open barrels. The fire spread and even detonated the natural gas line running under the plant, making a visible sonic boom and knocked out windows al over the Las Vegas valley. No matter how blatantly obvious it is that you shouldn't light a match in a room that's literally a powder keg and everyone there knows it, some moron will always light the match. You simply can not underestimate the potential depths of human stupidity. Every time a new low is found, some one else makes a deeper hole of stupid.

Automation has been doing that since the 1600s when looms killed the concept of "winter work" in rural communities. It used to be that they spent the winter sewing or making small crafts to sell in the spring to compliment selling produce in the fall. But the invention of "looms" and "spinning wheels" allowed specialists in the city to do the work much faster and better for little more than the cost of rent in the city. There's very little new about current automation that we haven't been dealing with for centuries. Tools allow for way more productivity and whomever own the tools captures most of the benefits of that increase in productivity. When people could buy their own sewing machines of the same style as the factories they could and did go into business for themselves and captured most of the products. When it takes several lifetimes of income for the average worker to build a factory that will be obsolete in twenty years workers take whatever they can get. Currently it's cutting both ways, but we do need a concerted effort of getting tools in the hands of the people or we'll start looking increasingly feudal as time goes on.

Nietzsche became ashes, and he did not come back. As in, for the last decade of his life he was incapacitated by illness. People forget that suffering tends to destroy far more people than it transforms. I think only about 5% of our suffering is actually necessary to learn what we need to know. I would know, personally. I have fought like hell and suffered terribly for 25 years with mental illness and addiction, and all it did for 95% of that time was fuck me up and make me isolated, lonely and bitter. And terrified all the time. Only until I found the right, most advanced modern neuroscientific tools did things start to slowly improve. At this rate, in five or so years I might be okay! But if I had found neurofeedback ten years ago, well...I might have had even a snippet of the life I wanted. Or even children! I think I would have wanted kids if I got into a serious relationship when I was younger, but now, at 42, I'm tired. Bone-weary. We have Stockholm Syndrome when it comes to suffering. We have suffered so much as a species and for almost all of history could do nothing, so we invented this philosophy to justify it. Now that things are changing, we are still stuck in 'suffering = transformation' mode. To keep moving forward we have to drop the mostly bullshit approach.

I really really don't believe debt and inflation in any way whatsoever helped medium or long term growth. Think about it : if a government takes on debt, that money comes from somewhere else. The government competes for capital with the free market. The more debt the government takes on the less there is available for the free market to grow with. Inherently governments spend money in extremely inefficient ways, so we achieve a big loss every time. This isn't even a new discovery, its basically accepted fact in economics text books that taxes create a net loss due to inefficient allocation of capital by the government. Plus the more the government taxes or spends with debt (which is just a tax on the future), the more potential for corruption exists and corruption is hurting the economy big time. Furthermore if you inflate currency rapidly like they are doing now, you don't help the economy either, you actually reduce the amount of real money people have in their savings, you effectively steal money from them. You steal from what they had planned to spend that money on. You hurt the future economy and you artificially allocate that money in inefficient ways. The least damaging way to print money would have been to hand all the extra money out equally amongst the population. This is in no way different from actually taking away money from people like me who were frugal and saved up and giving it to those who didn't. It has short term positive effects obviously, since it basically results in my money being spent earlier than I had planned. The long term effects are damaging though because i would have allocated it efficiently by buying useful things whilst now its being spent by the government on for example enabling other people to sit on their asses instead of working or by giving politicians even higher income. All that money theft also results in the smart people allocating their savings in assets like real estate, however this again is hurting the economy. When people allocate capital based on what inflation protection they expect instead of what yields the best expected output per capital, you hurt the markets. again less growth. Growth requires efficienct markets. You can't have efficient markets if you manipulate the capital markets.

@@kaihinton6623 Well, it depends. The current Russian doctrine predicts using the Russian Army not against major powers but against their smaller neighbors in short, low-intensity conflicts. So happens that Lukashenko is currently pushing "migrants" across my country's border while new Zapad maneuvers are planned to happen in the near future. So a form of hybrid warfare is already in use against us. So I'm afraid that we will end up with a never-ending border conflict that will only go as hot as to not trigger article 5. I'm not afraid of a full-scale conflict, however, (which may happen if NATO collapses under the weight of future crises but this is unlikely) but I am afraid that my country will either lose most of its sovereignty or sense of identity or both. By this, I mean the ability of independent decision-making and having a voice in matters relevant to our region. Most of it was already taken from us either by the EU or by powerplays of Germany, Russia, and the US. Look at Nord Stream 2 as an example of it. Ukraine and Poland got absolutely fucked by all three. So I'm basically facing two possibilities. I will either live in a country and nation deprived of its own agency and identity through the EU institutions and influence of Germany as well as left-wing/woke ideologies, relegated to be the province of cheap workforce and consumers of lesser quality products in exchange for being quite modern and reasonably wealthy. The alternative is to "de-westernize" and break those ties at a price of a much worse economic situation and even more uncertain situation at the Eastern border. Anyway, the game is rigged.

@@kamilszadkowski8864 my guess is the latter. If events play out as predicted, then economic hardships will cause more advanced nations like germany and western europe to retreat from globalism. I wouldnt lose hope though. Poland today is still leagues ahead of nations like belarus and russia per capita, and even if they are able to strongman their way into some kind of threat to poland then even a limited german presence might just be enough to deter russian encroachment. Russias immediate goals though are more focused around their immediate border regions such as ukraine and the baltics, which they seek to integrate and ‘reunify’ to restore former russian hegemony over eastern europe. This has been russias goal for the past 20 years and they have for the most part been pretty unsuccessful at it. Considering russias declining birthrate though and their inability to advance past a gas export driven economy they will eventually just become a failed state. Perhaps someday in the future though they may be able to reform into a more open nation.

I have mental limitations that hamper my ability to understand some of life's complexities others do not struggle with so much.

Except maybe the property bubble, but that's not likely to be the same as 2008. Capitalism is going to crash because it erodes its own base by reducing wages. Not to mention it's inherit instability as we can see how a distributed economy of self interested short-sighted individuals fails to react to literally anything. Every small disruption is a disaster. So that's climate change, resource depletion, living beyond means based on debt fueling bubbles. Look at the panic now that workers have a tiny amount of bargaining power now.
