Rumors of the beneficial trickle-down in tech have been just as exaggerated as the 1:1 analogous trickle-down in fiat counterfeit “money.”

You know the slaughter scenes where the protein hangs head flood-trickle-down?

Or even molten gold money, trickled into blanks for the stamper, for that matter.

But the death & carnage all that stuff doles isn’t even reconciled, let alone exaggerated. That your, or another’s, personal mileage has varied does not generalize to the net-net nature of the thing.

Control’s an illusion. But illusion’s control seems so real. Until it doesn’t. Until this day’s illusion is supplanted & there’s a new sheriff-illusion in town.

Sympathetic to plight of Canadian lady. UK is similar. We’re riding the Titanic and we know where it’s headed.

No one knows what it will look like.

All we can do is focus on the things you can control.

Long term, investing will pay off

I totally agree, focus on what you can control. But, your last line that “long term, Investing will pay off” is incongruent.

But, you can’t control the market - it doesn’t always go up. And you certainly can’t control the value of the currency you invest in.
