So clever

doesn't matter if I understand that when rent has going up $100/year for the last 4 years and now consumes 99% of my income leaving me deciding between rent, food, and electricity. none of that matters when i have negative money to invest with and no debt.

Good time to invest in a cocaine producer.

It matters to the extent that there is a whole class of people who don't have to worry about that stuff that think you're not paying enough taxes and could use less of YOUR social security when retirement comes.

the fuck can i do about those people and their actions in today's world? other than shooting them.

But good ghouls get headpats!

That's the flavour of vampire mind control they never mention in the stories.

Throw up your hands and give up I guess.

And when you understand it, what are you going to do, put some of your money which you have into it?

[frozengyro@lemmy.world]

That's a very good estimate of what it would be worth today, assuming they average a modest 6.5% return rate.

I'm not saying i shouldn't understand compound interest. I do understand it. I'm just saying our hang helped me.

like what are you even implying i should be doing that I'm not?

[kelly@lemmy.world]

That depends, did you buy ¼ of a pony 20 years ago?

Like some professional investors are not breathing in more cocaine than air to trade 24h around the globe. The current gap is on weekends.

clearly understanding compound interest, or smth

If you want to invest long term don’t take investing advice from people online who can barely form cogent sentences.

[ours@lemmy.world]

A.k.a. familiars.

[theuwuhugger@lemmy.world]

If you don’t understand my sentences, then maybe you should learn english

[prettybunnys@sh.itjust.works]

If I want to …. read your sentence, maybe, I’ll throw out all grammar and sentence structure. Maybe pretend I’ve done meth? Too!

[theuwuhugger@lemmy.world]

You would need to know grammar and syntax if you want to do without it, wouldn’t you? How would you do that?

[louneko@lemmy.world]

I wish I had $10 to invest at the end of the month.

In 2024, we call that a C level position.
