@john w I’m a regular working Joe who also invests.
Well, the returns could be higher but I like to sleep at night
Overall, I’m up +50% over 1 year since July 2020 so I’m happy.

Younger people all over the world get paid less. Mini-Jobs and working unpaid overtime is becomming the norm. So poverty is really the driving force behind Second hand.

@Garrison R even if someone is working at McDonald’s that person should be able to live of the salary they get.

@Salentino Why? Why make someone with no skill comfortable? If they want to live a comfortable live, they should get more skills. When robots take over chains like Mcdonalds, they’ll have no leverage at all because they had no skill.

Lol. Happened in the 70’s. It’s called being dirt poor as you try to not wear the same outfit every day. Let’s make being poor sound trendy and new. Assholes
