My old man has access to a Bloomberg Terminal, and I’m still kicking off with the idea of trading stonks. Can someone brief to me why traders think this shit is worth so much?

It is literally and unironically the same as having loads of news feeds / articles, graphs, price trackers etc on your monitor, just a particular user interface and it's all updated instantly. It was a big deal back in the days when people didn't have good internet and PCs but Bloomberg terminal is completely irrelevant now. I find it mind-blowing that they still charge what, like 25k a year for it still? 'Boomer shit' is a meme but this is the very definition of it.

“ All Bloomberg Terminals are leased in two-year cycles (in the late 1990s and early 2000s, three-year contracts were an option), with leases originally based on how many displays were connected to each terminal (this predated the move to Windows-based application). Most Bloomberg setups have between two and six displays. It is available for an annual fee of $20,000 per user ($24,000 per year for the small number of firms that use only one terminal).As of October 2016, there were 325,000 Bloomberg Terminal subscribers worldwide.”

It’s a pyramid scheme... the only people that make the money are the ones selling useless shit.

The only reason to get these are the exclusive job offers they post on the jobs board in terminal. Also, networking with other users in terminal is extremely beneficial.

It’s worth it if you take advantage of the social features desu. And you gets news instantly and are able to trade instantly. If you get a 0.000001 second edge, that may be a lot of money to you.

This. A Bloomberg terminal isn't going to have shit to do with whether or not your trading is profitable or not and they're laughably expensive. On the topic of trading for that matter, go do something useful with your time.
