Sky has been falling for an awful long time now Chief. Any day now, right? I'll entertain the doomer nonsense one more time.
>muh crash from which we never recover goyim!
Did you know the Nikkei 225 has never recovered from the '92 crash?
It's been 27 years and still hasn't reached its all time high. Fucked, right?
If you invested all your Nip Dollars in there in '90, by '92 you're down over -44%. Fast forward to today, and you're STILL down -29% (yields reinvested).
This is just shy of your "buy ammunition, cannibals are eating people now" The Road-tier scenario, but it's definitely "markets are ded forever, I told you investing is for jews!" shit.
The only problem is you're not retiring tomorrow, and you're not an idiot (I don't mean you here, I mean anyone else reading this). If you wake up after retiring and you've just lost 50% of your wealth, what do you do? You get a fucking job to make money, and you spend less (you spend less naturally as you get older anyway).
In all likelihood, you're NOT retiring tomorrow… You've been investing during the crash, because you're still working and you know this shit happens all the fucking time. So what happens then?
Your '92 investments mid-crash are now up 26.563%.
Your '93 investments peak-crash are up 66.935%.
Your '94 investments are up 49.720%.
And so on…
Shit, your more recent '03 investments are up 253%.
'09? 188%.
The investment sky is falling shit happens literally all the time famalam.
>invest in yourself
I don't disagree; this should be wholly self-evident. My posts are talking from a purely financial point of view.
