it does appear as if he thinks VR will sweep the mainstream eventually and he said the only reason meta is low these days is because of bad press. i just dont see VR catching on like that though..at least in its current headset form

Funny enough CEO of Norways oil fund (which owns 1% off all public companies) recently said you probably wont make any money in stocks, bonds, or real estate in the next 5-10 years

I agree. Everyone was touting VR as the next big thing for the Oculist Rift when it first came out (2016?) and no one gave a phuck and it was gimimcky as fuark.
We are not at the degen levels of society yet where we need fking VR communities to socialize...

Buying a house in March so paused on the investing. Should have enough for the house end of January (maybe mid Jan) so will pick back up with investing each paycheck at that point. Market isn't really gonna go up before then anyway is my guess.

If you've been investing since May you're down like 4-5% anyway. And if you've been investing since before then you're down even further.

All I know is that's the day I'll wish I could lift more than ever. The day I'd give anything for one more workout, one more set, or one more cardio session. So go hard and enjoy every workout, every set, every rep. Because one day you will wake up and you will never get it back."

natural evolution of social platforms/tech into augmented reality with advancement of internet speeds/handheld tech.


what started as plaintext (******** status updates) slowly turned into more images (snapchat, ig) into videos (tiktoks, reels), and the next thing will be sharing via AR


the jre podcast with cuckerberg was actually pretty interesting and betting on meta doesn't seem too bad considering how low it is now

It's true. But it's hard for people to part with their cash and put it in something that goes down on a daily basis. Most don't have the stomach for it. They only want to invest when things are going up.

Also, we have all these doomsters who say it's all gonna blow up and the dollar will be worthless. In which case why not throw it into the market and take a chance?

You don’t put it all in breh.

I'd probably start by looking into gas futures, though the crisis (if it materializes) is so long in coming you have to assume it's de-facto priced in already. Maybe oil futures, if you believe demand for kerosene/heating oil will also increase. Again though, got to assume that's already mostly priced in.

Could go direct to the source, as it were, and invest in NRT or something similar.

It's not even close to being all in. I hate seeing my portfolio go down to any degree but I can't have hundreds of thousands sitting there devaluing. I need to put at least some in the market. I only put what I don't need for 5+ years and even then I hold back. I just do index funds and ETFs because I never invest in anything I don't understand.

Nobody can time it 100% because no-one knows what the future holds. This bear market could go on another 10+ years.

With that said I feel like we haven't hit any kind of a bottom yet. Thus I've paused my DCA to stockpile cash.
