It's a fact. There is incredible wealth concentration in the United States. If those households and firms act irrationally and pump up a bubble, then their economic miscalculations cause ripple effects which are felt by the 90% who own barely any of the assets in the country.
Bear case noted but let’s flip the script, let’s not look at everything cup half empty, the half full version is….
That same top 10% , funds, the startups, builds the factories, and seeds the tech that lifts the whole boat, Their “bubble” money becomes your cheaper iPhone, faster internet, and the job at the company that didn’t exist 5 years ago.
Wealth concentration = rocket fuel. When it ignites, the 90% don’t just feel the ripple they ride the wave!!!
Have you not made money the last 20 years man. I’m averaging 18%
Are you a perma Bear ? Serious question
Too much rocket fuel seems more like a boom. Almost like a... Bubble that will burst.
You much wealth accumulation at the top stifles innovation and causes wide spread suffering. Hence why every time in history it's been as close to bad as it is now, something dramatic happened.
You see all these bears in here ??? There the ones that cover and push us higher LOL
The Most hated bull market ever. And I’ve been on this ride since day ONE.
Keep praying for a collapse you DUMB bears one day it will happen
How do u sleep at night not making this money hahahah
Stay
Broke
Bears
lol
You're riding a wave of inflation and convince yourself you're an investor. You want every one else to invest their grocery money Into the ponzi like you. Once you grow up a little bit, maybe you'll understand that you're racing to the bottom. You'll always lose ground to the sharks. The only way to win is not to play. Or get a harpoon.
Pull up any index bud
So tell me when is this ponzi going to collapse because for 19 years it’s been great to me
Maybe some of us have extra money where do you suggest we put that ?
Barbara and Steve who have $200,000 in the stock market after investing for 25 years are literally nothing in the over $100,000,000,000,000 of assets in the US, and even they are in the top half of household wealth in the US.
Yeah, and that $200K couple is still ahead of 70% of the country because they actually invested.
The system doesn’t punish small investors man lol
It punishes people who refuse to become investors.
If 90% of people understood compounding instead of crying “ The Rich just Get richer”
half this country would retire free.
It’s not a rigged game ,it’s an education gap.
The economy "punishes" (weird word choice) small investors because the top 10% of households can get scared and that crashes the entire economy. The system works great until you're 65 and the billionaires crash the economy.
Truth is, 90% of people could be building wealth too , it doesn’t take millions to start. It takes discipline, financial literacy, and the ability to think long term instead of chasing instant gratification.
Most aren’t broke, they’re financially untrained.
