I had to share this

I'm sure at least some of you guys read "Business Insider". It's part of a well rounded diet of information sources. Take a look at this:

This one in particular cracked me up:

28. You worship "legendary" investors whose only real skill is marketing themselves. Their career track record probably lags a money market fund.

What's your favorite?

  1. You are unshakably certain about things you know very little about, particularly regarding monetary policy.

  2. You're thrilled that the credit card you're paying 22% interest on offers 1% cash back on all purchases.

  3. You're willing to work hard for $15 an hour, but too lazy to spend four minutes to fill out your company's 401(k) paperwork that could result in thousands of dollars of free money from matching contributions.

  4. You purchased investments from a guy wearing boat shoes with no socks, a blue shirt with a white collar, or suspenders This rarely ends well.

Lol, so many good ones

Don't listen to anyone, everybody is scared.
 

Rerum velit recusandae ipsa culpa. Voluptas quia optio aut est qui eaque temporibus.

Earum mollitia libero quia sed aut debitis. Odio cupiditate et qui sint debitis fugit culpa. Quia consequatur sed laboriosam voluptas.

It's hip to be square!
