I am thinking to decrease the bond portion of my investments because I don't believe in America

2018-02-07 00:25:04 UTC  

🤔

2018-02-07 00:25:24 UTC  

seriously

2018-02-07 00:25:28 UTC  

everything is POC as hell

2018-02-07 00:25:58 UTC  

unless the next president after Trump is as far right of Trump as Trump is from retards like Romney, this country is dead in the water

2018-02-07 00:26:28 UTC  

Yeah

2018-02-07 00:26:43 UTC  

so my portfolio might slowly shift towards 50:50 stock:gold

2018-02-07 00:27:07 UTC  

Yeah gold is a pretty solid idea

2018-02-07 00:27:22 UTC  

If the USD crashes, your gold doesn't

2018-02-07 00:28:00 UTC  

stop spamming your shit

2018-02-07 00:28:19 UTC  

I guess the real meme would be to get a secure warehouse and stockpile oil and iron

2018-02-07 00:28:42 UTC  

why is that a good idea

2018-02-07 00:28:59 UTC  

Well it's not a "good idea" in a functional economy

2018-02-07 00:29:23 UTC  

But if there is a total global economic collapse, you could rely on oil and iron to be valuable still

2018-02-07 00:29:38 UTC  

what data re: economic collapses have you looked at to draw that conclusion

2018-02-07 00:30:03 UTC  

Gotta have oil to fuel tanks and aircraft

2018-02-07 00:30:11 UTC  

that is rationale, not data

2018-02-07 00:30:18 UTC  

IIRC tanks are made from steel

2018-02-07 00:30:28 UTC  

Yeah it's not proven

2018-02-07 00:31:31 UTC  

Gold should keep its value as a currency in 99% of situations

2018-02-07 00:32:24 UTC  

how is it not proven

2018-02-07 00:32:33 UTC  

how hard have you searched for data

2018-02-07 00:32:42 UTC  

Not hard lol

2018-02-07 00:32:43 UTC  

what data on the subject even exists?

2018-02-07 00:32:46 UTC  

so there you go

2018-02-07 00:32:49 UTC  

that's why your idea sucks

2018-02-07 00:32:58 UTC  

you could even be right but you would still be wrong because you did such a bad job thinking it through

2018-02-07 00:33:08 UTC  

It seems logical

2018-02-07 00:33:15 UTC  

lots of stuff seems logical

2018-02-07 00:33:25 UTC  

communism seems logical to communists

2018-02-07 00:33:47 UTC  

If everything falls apart, the most valuable resources should be the things that are necessary for war machines

2018-02-07 00:33:58 UTC  

see you strike me as half extremely kickass and mentally flexible, but half naive and unexamined

2018-02-07 00:34:01 UTC  

much like another friend of mine

2018-02-07 00:34:10 UTC  

I'm trying to slowly help you understand that so you can be fully kickass

2018-02-07 00:34:34 UTC  

I'm not saying anyone is supposed to go and do this

2018-02-07 00:34:51 UTC  

I just think it would be the ultimate "safe" investment

2018-02-07 00:35:18 UTC  

Just a theory of mine

2018-02-07 00:35:29 UTC  

okay

2018-02-07 00:35:33 UTC  

now we're getting somewhere

2018-02-07 00:35:37 UTC  

yeah it is a good theory, I agree

2018-02-07 00:38:20 UTC  

I enjoy "theorycrafting"
