The new state of astonishment
Please do not come to me for financial advice. Everything that I know about the field can be put down to one phrase. Buy it low and sell it high. For those of you paying attention to the absolute mess going on right now you have missed your window of opportunity. Yes the low is here but unless you have a lot of extra money you will not be taking advantage of it. Something about uncertainty looking forward. As in will it ever go high again. I feel safe. My ignorance makes sure that I will not be investing all the money I have just to watch it disappear. Yes I still have a bag of pennies. Is copper worth anything? Allow from what I have read even pennies are low on copper. My life might have been different if I had been more finely tuned into how others make money. No, wait, that is a myth. I have never had all this extra money that others seem to lose so willingly. I guess I was born at the wrong time in the wrong place. I have no gold mine or oil well under the house. I hope. Apparently having oil under your house is actually a really bad thing and the government will take all of your extra money to recuperate the condition. They will take the oil in the dirt and you will have a lovely whole to contemplate. To be fair watching the current state of financial stress is cathartic. I could have been much more stressed and unhappy if all of my riches had gone away for what seems to be the stroke of a sharpie. If anyone else has figured this one out please tell the world because the rest of us I just living day-to-day in a state of astonishment. Why are such intelligent people doing such idiotic things? And before you say that there is a plan bite your tongue. There is not. Is this whole thing an example of voodoo economics? Again probably not. This is just the result of allowing an old uneducated man to take over the steering wheel of your car metaphorically. Time for you to look under the seat cushions to see how many pennies you still have. We could start an alternate economy. Forget Bitcoin. Buy copper.
