We are already in a big crash Inflation is a catastrophe. This CPI report is a colossal failure. To bring the housing market to a halt, the FED will have to pull all the stops. The unfortunate issue is that other markets are being decimated. If you want to stay green, you have to rely on a lot of diversification. Currently up 14% and being careful. Still a better deal than leaving it in a savings or checking account yielding 0-1 percent interest.

Whichever firm you select, make sure you get your insurance from a reputable financial adviser, such as MARTHA ALONSO HARA who has dedicated her career to financial planning. Because they will assist you in escalating, navigating better, and completing the task in a safer manner.

@@harrisonjamie794 I want to build a diversified portfolio based on my personal income. I am easily triggered/highly emotional, which could be detrimental to my portfolio. I hope I am a patient and systematic person. day trading is not for everyone and multiyear holding is not for everyone. I know my strengths that's why I need proper guidance to be able to venture

@@BrunoLuke I have saved myself from all the hassle that chaotic market causes. These days the best way to come into the market space is by reading, studying, being patient, and seeking guidance when necessary, due to my line of work I can’t handle my portfolio so I just copy the trades of my FA. I saw her on Bloomberg business news. It’s been smooth since then.

@@teboholento727 Following the whole financial collapse.. Goldmans role .. this mans selection .. the timely fashion that he ascended and the decisions that he made ( that appeared hap hazard but really seemed ordered : letting lehman fail .. changing his values overnight and nationalising the banks) ect. I dont think it was a coincidence he was selected and he was the one to make these decisions. 😌😏 as I said . He inspires me.

"I never was addicted to money, so I went to Goldman Sachs." Great Logic! If you did not go to the finance world, I would actually believe you.

well i am almost quite fond of Bill Gates, he casted his appropriate influence at a time, which i think was critical to my own outcomes because after having acquired something without knowing where to take it, i could only spin on my own axis.. he provided direction and didn't direct, that was very kind of him. ヽ(*ﾟｰﾟ*)ﾉ

@@wilsonsy5237 yes but my point is that the commercial banks returned all the money with an extra 50 billion which did not come from the central bank. They took a loan and paid it all back. The tax payer got his money back.

Hank Paulson... what a crook

[@ChrJahnsen]

He was definitely part of the big banks, who robbed us all blind and later on stood there as a Secretary of the Treasury and assured everybody repeatedly in 2007 and 2008 that the economy was doing wonderfully!! He of all people knew, where things were going and he did nothing until it was too late.

Hank Paulson literally is a dickhead. I can't wait until his lifecycle is over.

[@lanceaugust]

The Chinese agreed to zero cuts in the Paris agreement. In fact they have built more than 40 new coal generating plants over the past couple years. India agreed to zero cuts. The Paris agreement was a farce. The US agreed to draconian cuts which would have made it too expensive for businesses to locate and employ people here. You cannot change the earth’s climate with treaties, legislation or political action. More carbon was dumped into the earth’s atmosphere in the 7 days of the Icelandic Volcanic eruption several years ago than all human activity for the past few decades. These business-types who have no scientific education, no understanding of the millions of years of geologic history which has had C02 levels at over 1000 parts per million (currently C02 levels are 440 parts per million) and the earth has had no ill effects. The climate is always in flux, and the lack of humility from these bozos, and their arrogance at approaching a complex subject for which they are ill-prepared to understand is nauseating.
