You need to invest money. My recommendation is get a job and start investing.

Wouldn't investing at this point basically means betting for even larger tesla & nvidia? Since these companies comprises huge part of nasdaq.

Some years ago someone would have said the same about Apple. Years before that, Wintel. Before that, IBM. To the start of time.

How this is going to play out is that life is going to get expensive (you ain't seen nothing yet). Money will help a shit ton. This is also going to be a situation where it's expensive to be poor, see rent and how interest works.

It's not. I'll probably die, but most of us will. I never really bought into the promise of infinite growth in a finite system that I was raised to believe in. Everyone narrowly focuses on their own issues, but the larger system is breaking down.

Yeah and the question is what can you do and how can you survive. Vote for Dems, and gather your nestegg by living below your means and investing.
