Meh, I am already retired and doesn't suck for me. Now for people who were just about to take out a big chunk and sell it all, yeah, the timing sucks.
But unless you are planning on selling right now, all good. The market will come back. And most rich people are actually buying up stock right now and laughing at the panic sellers. This happens every single dip.
Just because I say something divisive, doesn't mean I'm doing it on purpose. You do realize that some people just have different opinions than you, right? Hence the election results.
My point being, not everything is a trick or troll statement. I believe what I said; in spite of you finding it divisive, not because it's divisive.
For the record, my gf totally disagrees with me, and is making the really really silly mistake of panic selling. Even tho I showed her facts and historical context. She's making a huge mistake. And I'm sure I'll hear all about it when the market comes back up and I profit (small, but still profit).
