Biggest grift of all time

dabesdiabetic @dabesdiabetic.bsky.social · Sep 9

I’m assuming Apple has some proprietary hardware that only allows this charger to do this and not any GaN that’s 60+ watts?

3 years for health updates that prob 80% of us get from a watch or ring already? Who’s making these decisions over at Apple? They should walk out on the street and ask 100 people, “what means more in a headphone?” ANC and quality or heart rate tracking.

You mean to post this twice?

It’s different words with different meaning. An agreement means both parties agreed to something. Israel hasn’t agreed to anything but as long as they stop what they’re doing then the same result as an agreement will be obtained.

Sure that late fee really hurts. Easy to trade risky when you got the answer key in front of you.

Right. And I’ll look to historical data which points to there being no period of 30 years that hasn’t doubled the sp500. Which, 0-30 invested with contributions adjusted is infinitely better than SS. Even if for some reason you think a newborn should have bonds lmao.

dabesdiabetic @dabesdiabetic.bsky.social · Jun 11

Correct. Let me ask you this: would you rather 1,000 at birth, reinvested, with equal payments compared to SS each check into the SP500 that’s actually yours to will to whoever you want. Or, 70-100% to a “potential” based on qualifications? I know my answer.

No one sounds angrier than the boomer spamming in all caps talking about, well, I’m not really sure anymore. Best of luck with your savings account and SS. I’m sure you’ll be on the top floor of subsidized housing.

dabesdiabetic @dabesdiabetic.bsky.social · Jun 10

Lmao. You act like this is an investment into a OTC penny stock option 0DTE. I’d say it’s pretty safe to invest in the SP500 from one’s birth until retirement. But hey, nowhere’s safer than under your couch!

dabesdiabetic @dabesdiabetic.bsky.social · Jun 10

Lmao, I can just see your blue hair barista look through the screen. You give us rational liberals a bad look. Go back to the basement chubby cheek.

dabesdiabetic @dabesdiabetic.bsky.social · Jun 10

Compared to the equivalent invested in the market your argument is wrong. Literally 0 wins. Your money in the market would net more. You can yap about whatever side points, whatabouts, “you think”, you want. Money in market at birth > SS will net more money at retirement. Sorry doomer

Doom and gloom against something that’s literally never had a negative 30 year period is a rough look buddy. Good luck in meme coins, gold, money under the mattress or whatever assets you think are valuable. SS is a trash program that still doesn’t cover elderly to live. Year after year compared

I hate to tell you, if your retirement isn’t in the market you are actually, in fact, the fool. So much that the market has already looked past Trump’s tweets. It did its course for all of 2/3 months. As a democrat myself, you’ve lost you rational. P.S. I’m already well on my way to a million.

dabesdiabetic @dabesdiabetic.bsky.social · Jun 9

Lmao. “Don’t be fooled”? Let’s see, I was born in 88 which means 1,000 dollars the day SP500 opened would equate to over 300,000 dollars. What’s your social security investment? Oh, and that doesn’t include all the money over my life from each paycheck going into it vs the SS.

dabesdiabetic @dabesdiabetic.bsky.social · Jun 9

“Tax deferred, low cost index fund”. I think we can assume it’s something close to a target date fund at its most conservative or a Sp500 at the riskiest. This is for newborns, if you haven’t rebalanced your account from birth to retiring that’s on you. This is 100000% better than SS.

dabesdiabetic @dabesdiabetic.bsky.social · Jun 9

100/100 times I’d rather a fund started at birth that replaces social security. Every week my paycheck adds to it alongside my work. Make it within an app so teens can follow it and learn. SS is such a deficit and if you put into it all your life and croak no one in your family gets the benefit.

dabesdiabetic @dabesdiabetic.bsky.social · Jun 9

This is a no brainer. Anyone on SS if they just invested that money that went into it they’d all be millionaires.

Insane they think the consumer want this. Scrap it. More health features, better battery.

Insane. People know something. For one, who has 5 mill to throw away? (Because that’s essentially what should’ve happened). Unless that was a major hedge.

While I do agree we need to recognize that when “protecting a caretaker” and “homeless” are in the same sentence there’s certainly an open door for a massive amount of issues. Especially with the stigma around pit-bulls.

They know where it came from. They just don’t want to accept that answer.

dabesdiabetic @dabesdiabetic.bsky.social · Apr 11

Is anyone questioning that though? There’s no doubt that it was and that there will be nothing to come of it. It feels like Dems aren’t doing enough to reach and get to the people I know that are in the middle. They dc about insider trading and CB’s holdout for 24 hours.
