The best moment isn’t a moment. It’s dollar cost averaging (DCA) over years. Even so-called Bitcoin experts cannot predict the market at all.

Because Tricky Dick said it was only temporary? We only adopted the Keynesian rationale after ending the gold standard.

It’s not the same principle because it’s always one Big Mac. All the dollar stores are one dollar and up stores now.

“Finally he steeled himself to read the final rule again. He had been trained since earliest childhood, since his earliest learning of language, never to lie. It was an integral part of the learning of precise speech. Once, when he had been a Four, he had said, just prior to the midday meal at school, “I’m starving.” Immediately he had been taken aside for a brief private lesson in language precision. He was not starving, it was pointed out. He was hungry. No one in the community was starving, had ever been starving, would ever be starving. To say “starving” was to speak a lie. An unintentioned lie, of course. But the reason for precision of language was to ensure that unintentional lies were never uttered. Did he understand that? they asked him. And he had.”
“Once he had yearned for choice. Then, when he had had a choice, he had made the wrong one: the choice to leave. And now he was starving. But if he had stayed… His thoughts continued. If he had stayed, he would have starved in other ways. He would have lived a life hungry for feelings, for color, for love. And Gabriel? For Gabriel there would have been no life at all. So there had not really been a choice.”
— Lois Lowry, The Giver

Dark confession: I grew up around a lot of New Yorkers and don’t mind his personality/speech at all. If he was still on The Apprentice I’d find his blathering entertaining.
He could have been a nice interesting person. If he had wanted to be. Even Hitler could have been a painter instead.

The government says we had 2.7% inflation last year. Your expenses only went up by 2.7% last year, right? That sounds honest.

Racism isn’t just when a person thinks their race has superior ability. It’s also when we design systems that statistically harm brown people. In my country a lot of racism is thinly veiled as dealing with illegal immigrants. We used to require that you know how to read in order to vote.

Then I wouldn’t need as much buffer time in the first place. The sitting and waiting is because I didn’t know how long the delays would be.
