the bugman in me says that Jung is bunk, but what do I know - it could be argued that the whole institution of science is bunk (e.g. we infer things via statistics, e.g. we THINK we NOTICE that these antidepressants have a positive effect on SOME of our subjects, therefore we THINK it's the case that the antidepressants work on the brain causally in XYZ sort of way..yet we have no way of physically seeing this causality with our own human faculities ie sight smell taste tough hearing)

>they dont use nearly as much pills for depression in europe
That's good to hear.

I agree with the rest of the stuff you're saying. I think more people should get into trades. It's less debt, comparable money, and supposedly it's decently rewarding.

>how did you get interested in stocks
I got into crypto in 2011 and just gravitated to here. I'm not heavily into stocks and I've lost some money making dumb plays with options.

>what are your favorite philosophical ideas?
I have a lot and I'll just list off a few big ones
1) Is metaphysical materialism/physicalism true? That is, can EVERYTHING be reduced down to something physical (like an atom or a quark or whatever)? If it's true, where does that leave room for the human being: how can we explain consciousness? How can we explain (in physical terms) the subjective feeling of what it tastes like to eat a piece of chocolate?

2) Does God exist? Can we even rationally talk about God (since God seems so ineffable and grander than us humans), or is God something that is more personal and subjective? .. This is really more religious / theology than classic philosophy

3) I like Martin Heidegger, and I'm gonna butcher his ideas but Heidegger was concerned that we (we being the human race) have, over time, been way way far to concerned with "beings" (like actual physical things, like what science seeks to find, like widgets, like technology, like things I can point to in the world) than with Being itself (Being defined as that which allows anything to even fucking exist in the first place). Heidegger seems to think that we're so focused on "beings" and that we have developed such a technological view of the world - that we view the world and the Earth in such a negative light. We look at the forest as a means for wood. We look a the river as the means to build a dam. We have become less spiritual and more destructive over time.
