The endgame is owning equity assets which represent ownership in companies that make profits? I hold these valuable assets and then sell them in the future. What else could it be?

The assets are valuable because they represent ownership of the most productive companies on the planet?

As if being addicted is somehow exonerating. Inverting the valence doesn't work.

I think the comparison TikTok and Philip Morris tracks. Both spent insane amounts of money and talent optimizing the bad choices the addict could make.

its cope

They literally did. Investing in a broad market index means you want to own everything because you can't pick winners.

You just imagine you can pick for no good reason.

Pension funds are forbidden from picking winners and are required to buy into these indexes though. At best you can choose which index.

Yes. If you want to avoid paying taxes, ERISA says plan administrators must act as fiduciaries and provide options across risk/reward spectrum.

If you elect "total market index" then you want to own SPCX.

Open a brokerage account and pay taxes if you want something more specific.

If you want your 401k to have an "I hate Elon plan" then what point are you making?

More like "avoid rule-bending fraud investments".

cool assertion from 2023

This kind of argument doesn't bother to demonstrate the parallel in the logic. This bad form of argumentation should be labelled non rigorous. Then I would've have read it at all.

You never bothered explaining why saltwater is ai writing and readers are cells, nor what the parallel of immersion or osmotic pressure would be.

You lazily wanted me to fill in the details and be convinced. Why did you create this bad argument and leave it unlabelled.

fake therefore

No you dont get it. A conspiracy is afoot.

Hyperbolic people help me ignore their fake concerns.

I read that as, "you've learned to insert weird entropy meta-breadcrumbs just for finding"

so if i just index and search then i can stop writing like that?
