Better than a savings account or under your mattress.

Not even close to real estate. Shame that means much higher rent for poor people though.

Yeah, rent prices are ridiculous, I don’t know how poor people do it. I know we’re only talking about the Biden administration here (because party politics is more important than anything else), but the stock market historically outperforms real estate, which barely outpaces normal inflation.
Let’s not be too hasty. lol
Off to another red morning after another red closing. lol

Why is that “lol”? Do you not have money in the stock market? And the nuclear plant getting shelled messed up a lot of indexes over the night, and a really good jobs report just solidifies the rate hikes that are coming. Stock market normally does worse after a good jobs report.
Look over there! Another excuse!

Excuse, explanation. Still not sure why the stock market going down is funny. Do you seriously not have money there?

Having money in it doesn’t guarantee you will be unhappy if it goes down. Depends when you want to take it out and if you are still buying.
Can’t be sleepy and destructive at the same time I guess. lol

Well, let’s check the numbers. DJIA was about 30000 when he took office. Today it is about 33000. That’s a gain of 10% in about a year. That’s not bad.

This will not end well.
Remember when I talked about this…and you guys laughed at me?
I’m not laughing my self (this isn’t funny), but I hope you’re paying attention now.
Those who fail to learn from history are always doomed to repeat it. And you can count on the remediation being a *****.
