There is some type of a hybrid recession going on right now. A lot of small businesses closing, but markets still going up. The top 500 companies keep growing, but millions of small companies struggle financially. People also struggle financially. Is it worse than in the 2000s? Probably not, but we should all be cautious. I am buying gold and recession-proof dividend stocks (healthcare, consumer goods, utility).

People who think the health system will change are naive. Just look at the stock market. The big pharma and junk food companies only dropped by about 10-15% this month. And most analytics think it's an overreaction. Nobody actually believes RFK will make big changes.

I didn't say that Bitcoin is a cult, I meant that banks are a cult. I would have to create a bank account to buy Bitcoin, which would make me a member of the "bank cult". It would be a big shame and I wouldn't be able to live with myself.

The problem with most seed oils is not that they are unhealthy in their natural form, but the way they are produced. They go through a chemical process under extremely high temperature, which makes them unhealthy and toxic. Olive oil and coconut oil are cold-pressed, so they are much healthier. And then there is animal lard, which is the most natural fat for a human. Then you have people that are allergic to all plant oils but they can eat animal fat, or vice versa. It's just too complicated.

No thanks, I don't want to be a part of another cult. It's enough that I am a part of the Leo's cult 😂

I didn't say it's complicated, I would just feel like a complete idiot begging a crypto exchange to actually get my money, and then praying for the best. Last time I did something similar was when I was like 20.

The biggest surprise is how many people here are not only pro Trump, but also pro ultra right wing and worship guys like Elon Musk, Andrew Tate, and others. What are these people even doing on these forums? Have they mixed self-actualization with predatory capitalism?

Believe it or not, but I wouldn't want Bitcoin even if you gave it to me for free. So much hassle to just cash it out, pay taxes, etc. Also, so much wasted energy.

Pick only one movie!!! My all time favorite is Agora (2009) IMHO, this is one of the most underrated movies in history. It has everything - great acting, music, memorable scenes and dialoalogues, a strong message. It is a historical movie about clash of religions, science and power in ancient Egypt under Roman rule. I have seen this movie about 10 times and always get back to it.

Also, look at some of the biggest crypto exchanges recent reviews, a lot of people got their accounts closed for no reason. It's just a pure scam. Good luck cashing out lol. https://www.trustpilot.com/review/binance.com https://www.trustpilot.com/review/crypto.com https://www.trustpilot.com/review/coinbase.com https://www.trustpilot.com/review/kraken.com https://www.trustpilot.com/review/gemini.com

All I see is greed, fear, fomo, and delusion. Just a mix of human emotions pictured in a chart. No fundamentals whatsoever.

Greed is completely relative. You can be greedy and generous at the same. This is a great example: If you want the best for your children, but it's at the expense of someone else, you are greedy and generous at the same time. Your children will have a happy, luxurious live, while some other children will starve do death. I recommend watching this movie: The Zone of Interest.

The potential risk of investing in crypto is just not worth it IMO. It's not just the risk of the bubble crashing, but there are many other risks as well that you guys don't want to see: 1) You losing your crypto wallet or getting it stolen, etc. 2) You being scammed by a crypto company (blocking your account, impossible to withdraw, etc.) 3) Your mind getting completely fucked by becoming a mindless crypto bro promoting Bitcoin to everyone and voting for Donald J Trump 😉

The world is not just Trump and America. Diversify and do what the rest of the world has been doing. Ignore Trump with his buddies and invest in gold, international ETFs, etc. Don't live in a bubble!

Also, why would ever China, Russia, and India pump the same token as the USA, do you really think they are so stupid?

Keep dreaming lol

He is a "pro stock market" clown. He doesn't care about the actual economy. And the stock market is not the actual economy. It's just a couple of hundred companies that are supposed to represent the economy. You can be 100% sure that under Trump, the stock market will go up. Also, there will be another speculative assets bubble, even bigger than in 2021.

Why just retreat into cash and gold? There are hundreds of safe dividend stocks that usually just crash 10-20% on bad news and continue to rise even during recession. Abbvie just crashed 12,5% today because of some minor bad news. Good time to buy IMO.

Even those who were always defending the biggest corporations now admit that their number one priority is profits. A video example: Is a video about this topic coming a anytime soon? @Leo Gura

They were all beautiful

Maybe they have found out you are not really interested in the job and want someone more passionate. They can sense it.

When movies were actually fun.

I usually brought a McDonald's to my movie sessions, it was cheaper than popcorn and drink sold in the cinema. So yes, you're mostly right, I was just eating and laughing 🙂

Spiders are cool, but very fragile. I once had about 6-7 tarantulas and it was a pain keeping them alive. Also very expensive. If I had a spider consciousness, maybe I could keep them alive for longer lol.

The best movies are either those that are 100% logical, or those that are completely illogical on purpose. If a movie tries to be extremely serious and logical, but the characters do stupid decisions and are overly dramatic, etc., it can really put down the whole movie, no matter how realistic it is (cough, cough Nolan... )
