I didnt have much to begin with only lost about 12k, I have nothing anyway. My mother lost roughly 100k in her retirement fund from all this crashing. My grandmother even more. How much have you lost in Trump’s Tantrum Tariffs game?

          Oh sure, I’ll just wave my magic wand and make it so that after I pay all my bills I have thousands of dollars left over to invest!

            We all have bills, though. How much do you spend on fast food or other luxuries? What is your monthly income and how much are the hard bills (like utilities)? If you don’t mind sharing since we’re all anonymous on here anyway, maybe we can figure this out.

              Oh my god.

              I’ve considered all of these things. I know my finances better than you do. I live with family and don’t even have to pay rent and I still don’t make enough to invest in your magic money market. I don’t need help from stockbros. You’re doing the financial equivalent of “you’re disabled? have you tried exercising and smiling more?” Maybe consider that you don’t know everything.

                I never said that I know everything and wasn’t even thinking about the market at all; I was just concerned about a paycheck-to-paycheck life, especially if you happened to be living alone, but never mind.
