This. To the max. Honestly I Derrick Drink, but more importantly, I’ve made sure to learn the game that all these rich shitheads play. Wait until the market dips in January/February during the cyclical sell off, then invest. It doesn’t have to be a lot, but research, find solid picks, for either dividends or price per share growth, and invest. Honestly at this point I’d avoid the AI b******* and unless Nvidia dips down to 120 again I’m staying away. What you can be assured of is that the following things are going to happen people are going to want rare earth minerals for several reasons people are going to want to go to space because a space is awesome and b there’s a lot of potential out there and see there are certain stocks that are just always good to have. Buy a proctor & Gamble it cost a bunch now but it will essentially never be a bad investment and the dividend is very nice. Nokia drops below $5 again buy it up. Everybody’s telling me I was an idiot for saying this years ago when it was like $2 a share. Nvidia just bought a billion dollar share in Nokia and their shares shot up to $7 but more importantly their patent portfolio is fantastic and they have a very good dividend considering the very low price of entry for the stock itself.
Rocket lab. If it drops to $40 a share below f****** buy The shit out of it. It’s going to the moon, I told people that when it was $10 a share and it’s already been up to 70 this year. it’s still true
You can also feel good because you’re investing in a direct competitor to SpaceX and the plus side is the rockets don’t blow up every f****** launch. Europe is avoiding SpaceX like the plague. Rocket Labs business is set to grow exponentially, especially with the defunding of NASA.
Enroll different everybody has their own opinions more importantly everybody works in their own industry and has information and insight that will give you an advantage if you just hone in on what you want to focus on.
Cryptocurrency is a pipe dream and it’s really just a way to funnel funds without any type of transparency which is why the current regime is latching on to it.
Hedging cryptocurrency is never a bad idea. Wait till gold drops by into it.
Other than that enjoy your friends and your family build relationships and strengthen them. you may need alibis or you may need a gunner.

This is somewhat true for states that take more from the Fed than they receive. But the states threatening this plan are blue states. Also, they could just take what the fed owes them out of the escrow account, and essentially bypass the Fed all together

To this day, my Nokia windows phones were the best phones I’ve ever had. Insanely good cameras, battery life, use experience, and they came with wireless charging before it was cool. If there were still at least basic app support, I’d still be using it

Yeah… But rich people don’t want to eat food prepared cheaply and efficiently by robots. They want 10k a plate bullshit, not peasant food. They will, however, gladly use robots for manual labor like construction and soldiering

Homie led the plankton revolt of 1831479QT, and ushered in a golden age of cooperation and peace between the sea Lords and planktonions, so that only the old, sick, recently deceased plankton would fuel the hunger of the overlords

So it sounds like he’s saying no one will work enough to qualify for employer sponsored healthcare… Or at least be able to afford it.
So congrats, don’t ever get sick or lose a job! Plus your taxes are going up. Fuck you, you should have been a rich pedophile of your wanted differently!

- Comment on Hundreds of Instagram accounts push graphic real-life violence to millions, CBS News finds 4 weeks ago:
Yup. What’s fascinating is that when actual people were the ones developing and using the Internet to communicate(as opposed to companies and nation states), the community organically came up with methods of preventing this type of thing. NSFW, NSFW, GORE, spoiler tags, etc. and real people, by and large world voluntarily abide by these guidelines, because they understood that invoking PTSD in strangers is a horrible thing to do.
But when corporations got to the point that they didn’t need to listen to customers, just show and tell them what they should think, those rules of civility went away.
The problem was never your friends, neighbors, or countrymen. It’s that standards and practices based off collective and shared ideals, that have been established for centuries got pushed to the way side so some sleazy little cock weasels could monetize you to the point where you’re no longer a human, just an asset.

Similar to how Trump gave the go ahead for Putin to invade Ukraine if he lost the 2020 election, and how Republicans intentionally helped build up aid for Israel after they allowed Oct 7th to happen, so that Israel can carry out genocide. Then they could use that to say “see Democrats aren’t doing enough to help!”
I think it was Steve Bannon who has the tattoo of Nixon on his back. These are exactly the tactics that Trump and MAGAts are using the same play book against Americans

- Comment on GOP Silent as Mormon Church Gunman Identified as ‘Ultra MAGA’ Trump Supporter 1 month ago:
Excellent observation. They chose ignorance because so many people have been so economically oppressed in America for so long, and stripped of meaningful means of controlling their own life so that they now fetishize power, of any kind, to at least experience what they perceive as ‘power’… Which to the most simple mind, is nothing more than raw authority.
The only way forward is for momentum to build on anti-billionaire sentiment. Red, Blue, shades in between. Every American is directly impacted by the active, intentional, and systematic wage suppression and wealth consolidation that has been rampant for the last 40 years in America. A fraction of a percent have gained more than they could ever hope to spend, while over 99.9% of us can’t stop working, ever. Medical care cost will rise exponentially, denials from insurance will follow, and if you manage to avoid medical issues, they’ll just keep moving the goal posts on retirement age.
20 million in your 401k? Well now the retirement age is 75, so you’ll have to pay the penalty to withdraw before then, oh and you’re in the Medicare gap… And you’re old, so that will be 10k a month for health insurance
