Alright, seems like I don't have to worry about this anymore. Just going to wait a little while before "celebrating", since it is not yet trully cemented agreement, but a verbal one nontheless, should be enough. This is the kind of joy that would surely seem of little importance to many people, but is a big deal for me since it lifted big boulder off of my shoulders, now I got some space to breathe and manouver and prepare for the future better

Why did he need a friend to manage his crypto account, If he had just bought some Bitcoin and Ethereum and let it sit there, he could have just done that himself LOL. But whatever, dubious business practices attracting other dubious business practices is not surprising to me in the slightest

See you on the news, buddy -
401k is literaly the same as investing. LOL idk why you keep bringing this up. Literaly makes no difference other than maybe company would be willing to match your contribution to your 401k. And not all companies are willing to offer this, and only big companies and megacorporations or maybe state institutions are able to afford it in the first place. It's complete BS. Just invest on your own, it's much more flexible and your brain matter will increase by thinking a bit Pensions? Are you working in a state institution for several decades, then maybe you'll get one but it's value halved severely by inflation. Other than that, there are no pensions anymore. Social security? LOL it's a ponzi scheme dude. It's existence and stability depends on the young generation paying the social security tax which then directly feeds the old retirees. You can't depend on that with this birth rate, this disguistingly exploitative system, and the kind of prices we have while wages keep being stagnant. Are you actually a troll? Or a boomer? Or both? Yes we need collective retirement strategies, but NOT like those things you mentioned. It has to be something different, but that has to be accomplished by political and social changes, not individual changes Ok? I said the same thing. But most people won't be able to. Prove me wrong. LEL Your ideas about increasing income is the real fantasy. It's what all this retarded hustle culture fantasy and American dream is based on. And majority of self improooovement advice In reality, both increasing your income and investing is more dependent on the actions and mood of other people, than your actions. To think otherwise is delusional. It is a bad investment that should not exist. Just because there's a chance that your future wage/income will be significantly higher after passing college and getting a degree, and that you'll be able to handily pay off student loan as a result, is not a justification for the existence of these loans. They should not be getting a single penny and instead should be state funded completely

I'm too much of a manchild generally, to achieve goals of a too serious, too mature nature is what I'm realizing. But I honestly like it. As long as I can take care of myself (which I can) and I'm not a burden on others (which I'm not) then everything's golden

Idealism nor materialism does not inherently claim that there is no external reality, that would be solipsism. Idealism just claims that everything is made out of mind/consciousness. You can still believe in God as the ultimate perceiver (as an external force outside of yourself) or in objective idealism for example like Hegel did. Etc. etc. Hitler replaced the idea of God with mythical concepts such as Aryan race, "Volk" etc. effectively making it a religious cult -

Well, I see the word 'politics' mentioned three times in that headline and subheading, so I have the legal right to talk about politics here - at least until the topic gets moved elsewhere. Checkmate, wokies -
Yes You don't need to be a savvy investor anyway, just need patience and some wits LUL well you see, when you are talking about millions of people, there is no "serious strategy". My strategy is that of lowest expectations, so that the lowest common denominator can apply it to their financial life. But some people just win and some people just lose. Such is capitalism. It is a zero sum game. Do you honestly think that millions of people can all magically increase their income? LEL you as an individual can do that. A limited group of people can do that. A whole nation is not going to get paid better by "pulling yourself by the bootstraps" type of philosophy If you see taking student loans as a valid unexpected expense then I don't know what to tell you. You should not be going to any of these universities and feeding this predatory loan system, especially during this job market situation. You'd have to be out if your mind to do that. I'd also feel extra stupid knowing Europeans get access to most of their unis for free

Ehm... maybe you should take a second look at the title of this subforum. LUL The general topic of transgenderism is one of the reasons why populist politicians such as Trump keep winning. So yeah, I'd say this is pretty political -
Well the whole point of investing is to set aside money that you won't use for a very long time. Ideally these money should be retirement money. Just keep investing regurarly ammounts of money you can afford to invest and you'll be fine Most people will never be making high incomes and we all kinda know it deep down. Investing into ever growing economies and industries is therefore the only way for lower income people to save enough money for retirement to survive, or even live a nice life. There's honestly no point in investing unless it's for your retirement. If it's not for retirement, it's automatically trading in my opinion - just a long term trading and speculation, that's all Leo has already made retirement money long time ago, so for him it's all about trading and multiplying or even protecting his assets. Which skews his perspective on what regular people shouldn't do. The best way to solve unexpected bills is to not have them in the first place. Being smart, strategic and staying out of trouble. The second best way is to of course make more money, like you said. Easier said than done tho

I can't really understand what these people who genuinely suffer from gender dysphoria are going through. It just never even occurred to me to question my expression of being a dude, or the fact that I'm a dude, etc. But it seems to be, to put it kinda offensively, just a prenatal mess-up in brain development and hormonal levels in these individuals. And it seems to me that all this discourse about "gender identity" is just a projection of these people's troubled psyche - it's like they're projecting their issues onto us, the normal, regular majority, and even categorizing us into newly created boxes such as "cis man," "cis woman," and shit like that. It's almost like they want us to experience the same kind of problems they're experiencing internally in their own minds. But what they don't realize is that this topic was basically non-existent until people like them brought it up (and rich elites used it as one of the main topics of culture war distractions, to divert attention from real problems). You know, I never had to have that internal monologue, and I'm pretty sure most people never had to either—yet the majority chose to treat this problem as if it were one of the most important issues they were facing. Let the mentally ill people find the help they need, sure, be compassionate towards them, sure, hell, even call them by their own pronouns if you feel like it, but don't make it a political issue. That should be common sense -

Well of course it's not the same as idealism, but Hitler used that idea and of course twisted it as he saw fit. Nazism was a religion and a cult, it is fairly difficult to subscribe to materialist paradigm and be religious at the same time -
Well, I will always be able to afford to "ride out the bump" as long as I'm holding on the long enough time frame. Which is what I'm doing. It doesn't matter how much the economy will crash because I know everything will rise back up again, even after foolish mismanagments of people like Trump. I'm not looking to protect my invested assets because the time frame I'm operating in is measured in decades, not years I could write more but this is common sense at this point

This may be the case for you, who's probably got houndreds of thousands of dollars to invest, in that case sure you can lose a lot of money if you time your investment wrong. But for regular people like me and most people on this forum, long term strategy is the safest and the best

Nazism (the OG Hitler kind), believe it or not, is actually rooted in the philosophical assumption of idealism, i.e. matter is made out of mind. Which is why Hitler, even towards the end of the war, was so sure that the war could be turned around by some miraculous offensive or wonder weapons, and has put so much importance on purging generals who weren't 100% idealogical. He basically believed that if the whole nation collectivelly believes something to be possible, that it would become a reality. Which is also why regular german soldiers did not surrender and kept defending to the last man. Just find it interesting that even people on this site, and everyone badically, is just a few steps/beliefs away from being nazis -
Then later showing fake receipts of cam interviews of patriots, claiming they've invested into your Patriot's Economic Defense Plan and it doubled their money, and now they can take their families to holiday into Hawai and make the economy great again Always putting up pictures of a big titty blonde women with confederate flags on their bras as video thumbnails, for that extra viewership bonus
