they (mostly) don't invest in the company

2019-09-22 22:10:44 UTC  

do you understand that it's just as absurd from my perspective???

2019-09-22 22:10:50 UTC  

because we have totally different paradigms on this

2019-09-22 22:10:54 UTC  

Because there's no pay out in investing at the level most employees have? Because most of them are barely breaking even as it is?

2019-09-22 22:11:04 UTC  

well they also didn't invest early enough

2019-09-22 22:11:29 UTC  

returns would have been higher if they had

2019-09-22 22:11:39 UTC  

Why would I, your average American, spend money on an intangible item that may or may not maintain its value rather than something I need

2019-09-22 22:11:46 UTC  

Good god that's retarded.

2019-09-22 22:11:58 UTC  

Consumerism

2019-09-22 22:12:00 UTC  

That's why

2019-09-22 22:12:02 UTC  

because that's how you accumulate wealth LOL

2019-09-22 22:12:19 UTC  

their money would be worth x1794 what it was at IPO if they had invested THEN

2019-09-22 22:12:25 UTC  

even MORE if they had before ipo

2019-09-22 22:12:31 UTC  

Riiiiiiight. I'm sure that's comforting to people like Konot and I that dont have that ability

2019-09-22 22:12:39 UTC  

What do you define as investing in the company? Because I think the true definition of investing in a company is the work you put into it. Your sweat, blood, and tears. I own stocks in gold mines but I don't consider myself to have "invested" in those mines because I don't work the mines

2019-09-22 22:12:42 UTC  

Personal opinion here but wealth shouldn't be measured by monetary gain

2019-09-22 22:12:46 UTC  

yes you do, that's what IPO is

2019-09-22 22:12:53 UTC  

Thinking like that is why the poor stay poor and the rich stay rich

2019-09-22 22:13:07 UTC  

Should be based on land, and the things you have

2019-09-22 22:13:16 UTC  

Technically it is

2019-09-22 22:13:19 UTC  

man we should have a debate channel

2019-09-22 22:13:22 UTC  

@Hellhound6 we had that kind of wealth system at one point

2019-09-22 22:13:24 UTC  

@AKAlexei I think that's a semantics argument, I consider investing as giving money to the company through stock or % ownership

2019-09-22 22:13:31 UTC  

I kn9w

2019-09-22 22:14:03 UTC  

Basically "if you cant afford to invest it sucks to be you stay poor"

2019-09-22 22:14:04 UTC  

I see we are having an in depth discussion on economics

2019-09-22 22:14:14 UTC  

@Foxhound do you have more than $1 in your bank?

2019-09-22 22:14:27 UTC  

why don't you invest it?

2019-09-22 22:14:31 UTC  

get a robinhood

2019-09-22 22:14:47 UTC  

do research into emerging companies, and invest in them

2019-09-22 22:14:51 UTC  

I mean invest in certain guns and armor

2019-09-22 22:14:54 UTC  

Just sayib

2019-09-22 22:14:56 UTC

2019-09-22 22:15:06 UTC
