Between PPP 'loans', 0% interest rates giving way to slumlords..er..'investors', and other stimuli, I feel like I'm the only sucker who didn't get rich.

Perhaps one of these days I'll ignore personal morals and join the party, since there doesn't really seem to be a visible downside :(.

Watch the Anna Delvey documentary when you're bored sometime and tell me you don't low-key respect that hustle. Tell me you wouldn't have strongly considered nullifying that jury if you were on it.

Then compare that to what Elizabeth Holmes did, and tell me you don't wish she got a much harsher sentence.

There's a lesson there. To join the party, don't ignore your personal morals. Just bend them to grift the right people.

The thing about the economic cycle is that it's a cycle. This too shall pass.
Some cycles take a couple generations to pass. We can't just say "this too shall pass".
Which economic cycles have lasted that long? They are typically in the 5-15 year range.
You don't know that.
The only constant is change.
Collapse is also a change lol.
Take what you can before it collapses.
