if you own anything they talk about, it's a good sell signal

When they think the words "401k" and "IRA" have any other meaning in the investment world besides being a certain kind of account

I still have a voice recording of one of my house tenant just before bitcoin entered the bear market, talking to her friend about investing in crypto. She's a 50+ year old retiree woman. Shilled me to get in the ride because everyone else my age is becoming a millionaire doing so. I never admit I know anything about crypto at that time. Now she moved out from the house already because can't pay the rent. Glad I sold right after that. Shit scared the shit out of me because of the huge sell signal.

>Coworkers all have whole life policies

I tried explaining how it’s a bad deal and the dude got so mad at me. “I think I’ll listen to my insurance guy over you”.

I also had another coworker talk about wanting an 80-90k car and I said “you don’t make enough to afford that” and she lost her shit at me. I knew her wage and it’s less than mine, probably yearly salary around 55k.

I learned a valuable lesson the stop talking about money to make people not hate me. Now I’d say something like “that would be awesome, be careful about interest rates”

Not just money but advice in general. Always better to shut up

It's amazing that people still get whole life insurance in current year. I guess it's like high-fee actively managed mutual funds. Or annuities. They're old types of product that people buy far more than they should.

A lot of the time, people are aware they aren't making the best choice. They're making the easiest or most impulsive choice. They don't want medicine, give them the pat on the back they want for their midwit behavior and then move on with your life. This is interfacing with midwits 101.
