  1. The only thing i disagree with him on is militarizing Europe. A europe that uses the u.s. military as defense would be a much better geopoliticsl strategy, lessening Russian resolve and making it more appealing to trade with from other countries that it has historically exploited, essentially the rest of the world. A European army would cause fear in Russia, nationalism, resolve. A European army could also wind up striking Russia. De-militarized leads to more stability, when, you don't need it (U.S. defense). The only reason Europe does need to militarize is because the u.s. is abandoning it.
  2. After this video, you still support centralization via socialism? Did you watch the entire video?
  3. I think OP doesn't understand what moral means, they're using it as 'goodness'. Moral means for the whole.
  4. Hopefully they start firing big missiles now that the u.s. switched to Russian side. The only reason they haven't is to not provoke a larger attack by Russia, which seems moot now.
  5. Good communicator, purpose driven, patient

  9. https://youtube.com/@anapsychology?si=y4A4V9BrXWktZmeC I watch this young female psychologist talk about relationships I haven't watched this series of hers
  10. I'll try to find some videos that point to what im saying. They won't really be dating videos but women talking about relationships. Most of my experience is from just being around women, I make friends with women, 20something university women. That'd probably be the best education you could find, if you have some interest that women share, soccer, some sport, just talk to the girls without trying to fuck them. Here's a young woman I watch https://youtube.com/@anapsychology?si=y4A4V9BrXWktZmeC
  11. Most dont. I'm in a university city. A lot of girls go to that scene, to not need to go to that scene, they want to find a guy and get away from that; the ones that don't, aren't marriage material. A lot of the younger generation doesn't even drink anymore.
  12. CDs are 5% right now, zero risk. They should be going higher too
  13. Ya, I think it's counter productive. Just go make friends with them, ask them on a simple fun date, bam!, married. Women are easy and they want to be with you, maybe even more than you want them, they don't care about your little social anxiety hiccups, some do, but those types aren't marriage material. Most of these women you walk by, want you, just the way you are. You don't need special sauce, women like to just talk, just practice talking, talk to the cashier, a stranger you sit by, other people at the grocery, just practice being friendly, you don't need to be special or extra, bare bones boring talk, the more anxiety hiccups the merrier, people love just being with other people. Marriage material women only care about; will you work, will you be nice, will you be open to being open, will you be receptive to feedback. That bar is ground level, anyone can do that today. All that other shit you're told they want, is marketing, idiots selling you something that harms you like cigarettes to look cool. They don't care about Rico Suave, or Fabio, some do, those aren't marriage material. They just want someone to go to the book store with, the grocery, a walk, simple vacation, simple basic man.
  14. "Game and muscles" are for casual sex, not finding a wife. All you need to study is communication, relationship psychology, and do some self-assesment about your tendencies in interacting with others. Then just go be nice to women like to be friends, you'll find a wife.
  15. Mmmkay. That doesn't mean invest 90k into s&p when everyone thinks the market is going to crash.
  16. Lady, you don't understand what he's saying. Being able to read does not mean being able to understand. NBC News https://www.nbcnews.com Warren Buffett amasses more cash and sells more stock, but doesn't explain ...

Jul 12, 2026 — This isn't necessarily a market call. Buffett has long framed cash as optionality, the ability to move decisively when something cheap comes
  17. "An investment of $500,000 in the S&P 500 from the beginning of 2001 through the end of 2012 (a 12-year period) would have grown to approximately $681,303, assuming all dividends were reinvested. [1] Real (Inflation-Adjusted):Annual Growth Rate 0.32% Because cumulative inflation during this span was roughly 31%, your true purchasing power remained almost completely flat." If you just blindly put everything in s&p500, you'll likely lose half of your money in the next couple of years. If you just keep it in there until you retire, it can do it again when you go to retire. Retirements are usually not 50 years long. Look at the years on this chart, this is the biggest run EVER, that means it's inflating your average return rate by about 300% Red line would be about average(50% of today's price!!) These dips, are almost 50% drops Look at how u.s. debt matches s&p. This suggests the s&p growth is not organic but synthetic "Don't time the market" is not for an impending crash. Even Warren Buffet sold out of the market. Nor does it suggest blindly investing, AT ALL. Just because you read a sentence doesn't mean you understand what someone means, that's called "black and white thinking".

  19. Something very reliable, as opposed to something less secure like a single risky business. Diversified assets and relationships to weather any changes.
  20. OP Thread I'd ask what's wrong, hug, girls fake it a lot, i empathize, sympathize,....
  21. I can't stand religious people, they're like rabid dogs. Dysangelists
  22. You guys don't understand this is how it was before Obama, with Bush, Reagan, Nixon,....
  23. Pretty infantilizing for a personal development forum. 'Just work for other people, let the pros stear the ship', just follow your husband or church, school teacher. Hedge funds consistently underperform the market, averaging 4% adjusting for inflation, since they began in the 50's, getting worse as time goes on. The market is 8%. OP is asking about not losing money from the bubble, which is what those funds are heavily invested in. If you believe "the pros" know what they're doing, how did 08' happen? A lot of people that were retiring then lost most of their money, being in these funds.
  24. I think Christians understand Jesus the least of anyone that reads about him. I guess that's why they're called Christians and not Yeshuans. A bit ironic, 'satan' essentially took over his teachings. But, Judaism seems even dumber to me, a literal fairytale.
  25. That's not what religion means. That's the informal, metaphorical/figurative use of the term.
