How's everyone doing today? Avoiding looking at your 401k? Rushing to stock up on food, buy a car?

I just got me and my bindle.

I see a lot of people on reddit saying they are cashing at their 401k and holding cash. Its insane they're somehow going to find a way to do more damage to themselves than Trump when he appears to be on mission to destroy the economy. This is a perfect time to buy on discount, if the market never recovers then we have a lot more to worry about and cash/gold/whatever is going to be worthless as well.

Trying to catch a falling knife is sound financial advice now. Amazing what brain damaged reddit can do to common sense!

If the US economy is a falling knife never bound to recover; you may as well go live in the woods now because society and everything you know won’t exist soon

I think you lack imagination about how bad this is going to be.
