And nobody wants to listen either. They think living in perpetual debt is just how life is.

Anyone else know this feel?

90% of people are soulless husks performing motions programmed into them by the government via public school and Hollywood sickos via TV and movies. Many of them will fight you if you try and push them to escape the rat race with entrepreneurship, self education or investing. Welcome to the matrix.

Why would you still associate with your family if this were the case? I don't get it. We should tear down the family construct if it has become weak enough to fall victim to the kind of degeneracy we see in every major city.

I converted all of my investment from stock to bonds in November. Suggested my dad do the same.
He said it's all under control, the financial advisor who takes a $2k yearly fee from him told him he's fine
My dad's retirement account flopped $80k
Sure it will probably bounce back, but if he was in bonds right now he'd be $80k ahead and could even buy back in now and be ahead of most people.
But no, he pays $2k to someone
