If you aren't planning a big purchase soon then there's no reason to sell. The very basic premise of investing is buy low sell high. And yet every time there's a drop people panic and sell low. Some people say they'll sell now and buy lower, but there's no way to predict where the lows are and you're more likely to just miss the rise back up later. People who stayed invested through the 2008-2009 crisis had all their money back within a couple years. People who sold during the panic in large part missed the rise back up.

I totally understand this thought process, even while I am extremely anxious when looking at the numbers in my account.

That said - is it realistic to have faith that this will have an upswing down the line when the demolition of our entire system right now is intended by our President? It isn't quite the same situation in 2008-2009. How do you have faith that it will ever swing back the other way when the people in power are actively trying to eliminate growth within the middle class? It feels like we are in completely uncharted territory here.

The scene in the lunchroom where MJ slips and her lunch tray items go up in the air, Parker catches them as they are falling in form of like a tower.

He legit did that. Not first take or anything, but it wasn't an effect

trump must teabag Elon musk on camera, live streamed to twitch, whenever the two are within 50 miles of each other

failure to do so means elon must kick trump in the nuts twice on a Tuesday, but live streamed to vimeo. failure to do that will result in trump and elons entire assets being liquidated and the proceeds donated to the louvre.

I mean, for me it would be something like Trump reversing everything he already signed, and him + Vance stepping down, but you do you I guess

Isn't this the one where they used CGI dwarves instead of hiring little people to play the parts?

I recall there being some blowback also around Peter Dinklage making some kind of statement which prompted Disney to go CGI instead of casting little people IIRC.

Although the menu for all my different echoes is already getting comically unwieldy, can't imagine how wild it will be by the end.


This is one minor complaint I have, which is just the annoyance of going from one echo to the next if they are a good distance away from each other. More a QoL thing

Some of you guys definitely need to take a break from the news/reddit/CE and dabble in a hobby or something for a bit >_>

I've actually been keeping away from CE more lately to try not get sucked into the doomerism, but also because the constant influx of news is really depressing.

But if you've been paying any attention to the news lately, it sure doesn't feel like doomerism. There are people in our government actively trying to dismantle all of the systems and agencies in place that have run this country. They are taking away rights. At this point it doesn't feel like doomerism to say that nothing is off the table with how low they would potentially go.

That said - I appreciate your Roth IRA topics. I do want to continue with mine, and I want to frontload the funds, but I am just having a hard time feeling confident that we will even reach retirement age with MAGA GOP dismantling every system, and how little hope there is for the planet over the next few decades.

Eh, the market will always sort itself out in time. Dont believe the doomposts so much man

It is hard to have this perspective, which seems to assume all of the systems that have been in place for decades will still be in place at our retirement, when we know that the Trump administration is actively working to dismantle so many of our systems.

At this point it would not surprise me if they pass a bill that says the government gets 50% of your retirement vehicle.
