One minute of silence for all that shorted in the last 1-4 weeks! This bull trap is the most obvious move and everyone who failed to see this coming should question his calculations once again
People over 60:
Married by 24
3 kids by 30
One income could carry a household
9โ5 desk job with a pension track
IRA + Social Security actually meant something
30-year mortgage that cost 2โ3x annual income
House paid off by late 50s
60/40 portfolio worked
Gold and silver as insurance, not desperation. Strong middle class.
People under 30:
Married later or not at all
Kids postponed or abandoned entirely
Two incomes barely cover rent
Gig work + side hustles just to stay flat
Student debt as a life sentence
No pension, 401k tied to market volatility
Starter homes cost 6โ10ร annual income
Mortgages replaced by permanent rent
60/40 is mathematically broken
Cash is melting, savings feel pointless
We live inside a headwind economy. Instability is the default. Risk is mandatory.
