@LarryGreer20@NH_Ancap Except, for example, when I was prescribed DAPT by a cardiologist who clearly didn't understand how probability works.
Or when evaluating the difference between absolute and relative risk.
Or understanding the NNT and how that applies to an individual.
@rodcampsbay No. His wealth is theoretical. It's not piles of cash. It's the price people are trading his shares for. If he tried to spend it, the value would go down. He's investing his money to create jobs and opportunities.
@TaiigerBlue Gosh you are dim. A trillion dollars is the value of the companies he owns. It's not cash, dummy. If business takes a downturn, then so does the value of his companies and his supposed "wealth".
@georgeeaton So, if people pay into a pension fund (NIC) all their working lives, and then end up with too much money, the government should renege on that fund?
@StevePhillipsMD Yep. Prinzmetal (vasospastic) angina, to be exact, after the Moderna booster. I've had angina for 30 years, but this was the worst. Up to the scalp, down both arms, front and back of torso. Grew over 15-20 mins; resolved over about 2 hours.
Oh, and ED. Which hasn't resolved.🫤
@ClimateWarrior7 Idiot. That’s not his salary. That’s the value of the shares he owns. Buy shares, make the company grow (by working) and the value goes up.
@bohumilo@RobertMSterling No point trying to explain. As Spike Milligan once said, if you spend fifty years trying to explain relativity to a roomful of monkeys, in the end you would have a room full of monkeys.
@Capital4Value@RobertMSterling Don't be silly. Rich people don't have their money in armoured trucks. They have it in company shares. When their company goes up in value (because they worked on that) the value of their shares goes up.
Too hard to understand?
@SweetMOMdee@yeankhar Where a drop will do, like for blood sugar or ketones, that’s fine. Most tests, like U&E, blood count, lipids, and many, many others, need far more blood volume than you can get from a finger prick.
