Comparing my net worth to that total net worth? I’d be upset, but not terribly so, if I lost $1000 too.
But since I would be getting it back later, and then some, it’s more like a small investment only . Definitely worth the small risk,
proof they're not geniuses
But to them this is winning, right? Anything to "own the libs" that they so hate. There's no such thing as failing, there's only failing forwards.
I know were in for a world of pain with the stocks tanking. But honestly don't mind that they lose even more. Lose everything. Burn with us.
They won't. You'll see. They will come out of this richer and more powerful than when they went in.
Well maybe they'll get eaten by the poor. Im okay with that alternative plan.
Noice!
MOAR!
They don't care. Stock prices only matter when purchasing and when selling. The day to day up and down has no affect on their direct worth.
False - these billionaires use their stock as collateral for loans. It’s all part of a tax avoidance scheme. If the stock goes down significantly, the banks come knocking.
Both of the billionaires pictured also head their companies in some way or another. Investors can vote to throw them out. Not that they would, but even the vote of no confidence is not a good look.
Banks may come to them, but hardly knocking with demands. 'If you owe the bank $100, that's your problem. If you owe the bank $100 million, that's the bank's problem.' And how they interact with banks, loans, etc. is far different in scale and method than the average consumer anyway.
Not low enough. We can do better!
I can’t help but feel like this was some sort of Monkey’s paw situation. “I wish there weren’t any billionaires”
I'm sure they will be able to weather the storm. I bet they could find a way to get by on "only" a billion, let's say.
go woke go broke, no wait....
turns out its the either side going woke going broke. right wingers are by thier own definition, the wokest people out there.
Go fash, lose cash.
Toadying capitulators all
Keep It going y’all
Just Covid economy 2.0 shifting more of everyones money into less hands, this way it can be Bidens fault it dropped and then Trumps when it regains
The only solace to watching all my retirement and investments get cratered is the fact that the assholes that brought this all about are taking the bigger hit.
Keep it coming people! Stay the course!
Damn that’s financially irresponsible. I’ve only lost a $20 since then
Damn Globalists at it again huh? LMAO 🤣
