Leftists decided punishing Democrats was more important than the rights of marginalized people living in the US, so now we have Trump. Thanks leftists. You’re the reason we will have concentration camps again.

  • Congrats! I would say don’t sleep on the stock market, especially now since a dip/cliff is really the best time to invest to get a good return, but you shouldn’t touch it for at least a decade. Generally over a ten year period the market will give you a rate of return better than a HYSA but may be better or worse across short periods of time.

    If there is some kind of economic collapse that happens, it’s going to affect a lot more than the stock market. Even regular bank accounts will be affected and if your bank doesn’t shut down your US currency may be worth nothing. Especially if they get rid of the FDIC like Trump and Musk want.


  • It’s good to have 3 months to a year of expenses saved in an HYSA to start with as a rainy day fund you can use in an emergency (i.e. lose your job/house, etc.). I think there are some studies that a huge portion of the population doesn’t have savings to cover even a surprise $1000 expense.

    That’s more important than putting money in the stock market to start with but after you have that you can put your savings into an IRA or something preferably in a diversified fund. (Vanguard has a few tgat are specifically targeted for retirement at particular years).








  • If your company caves to Trump/the republicans, don’t quit in a grand statement. They don’t care, they’ll save money, they get rid of a possibly problematic employee, and you’re out of a job.

    Lie low, stay under the radar, continue to collect paychecks, meanwhile, destroy them with little acts of sabotage from the inside. You get your satisfaction, retain your income, meanwhile robbing them of income all the while actually working against them.

    They have almost no defense against agents on the inside.
