Clearly they just need to take their own advice:

1. No more avocado toast

2. Stop buying so much coffee out. Make it at home.

3. ????

4. Profit.

Simple as.

“I don’t want to have to worry that everyone is constantly changing my financial reality,” said Alison Carey, 64, of Oregon, a freelancer in the theater industry. “Let the economy do its machinations, but don’t put me in the gears.”

Sorry you had to learn it this way, Alison, but "the economy" has always been grinding people up in its gears. The main difference is, that it is now reaching you, personally.

It's ok everyone they will all be a lot better off once manufacturing comes back to the US, they can make up the difference by working in a local sweatshop.

But it's so worth it when you remember that he ended all that DEI stuff and stopped those two trans kids from playing women's sports.

Let's go vote republican !

Aw dang it Aw dang it Aw dang it Aw dang it Aw dang it Aw dang it Aw dang it Aw dang it Aw dang it

Oh the thing professionals all said would happen? That's what they are stunned about? The very thing they were warned would happen if trump did the thing he said he would do.

Well, if you voted for these dumbasses and are now pikachu over how idiotic they actually are....hard to feel sorry for you.

BTW, if you say "I didn't vote for that"......YES YOU DID. It's not like donvict was quiet about his love for tariffs.

You keep saying retirees when I think you mean future walmart door greeters.

"Victor Fettes, 54, of Georgia, who retired last week"

Fucking hell, you guys can retire at FIFTY FOUR?

Don't let them fool u by saying that this is just a correction. A correction needs a catalyst. The catalyst here is the tarriff. Trump created this mess. Rise up. Fight.

Turns out woke wasn't so bad, huh

Oh no, are the Boomers finally collectively suffering the consequences of their own collective actions?

What a shame.

Anyway, welcome to the 'you can never retire or afford a house' club along with all your children who've been begging you for the past 20 years to stop voting for policies and politicians who made this current situation inevitable.

It’s almost like this is exactly what we warned them would happen.

I just took a couple Ubers. They were driven by retirees as a way to make a little extra cash and get out of the house. Both of them said they would have to quit driving and get another “real” job again if the market continued to tank. This shit rolls downhill…gonna create a job crunch again. People not leaving jobs, no jobs for people entering the marketplace, and companies are going to start crushing labor’s wages and benefits again.

“The leopards ate my face”

Lol, I rolled my 401k to an IRA as part of a actively managed fidelity fund right after Trump got inaugurated. If I hadn't I would be down about 150k, instead I'm up 35k already, and that was after cashing out just below all time high.

That said,I decided to ride it out in my fuck around E-Trade account. I went from being up 25k on jan 1st to being down 9k today.

Trump's 'plan' is to crash the market so that people with large reserves of cash can buy at all time low. Then he'll back pedal his bullshit and things will go up, so they'll sell. It's not going to go back up to what it was before his watch, at least not with him around. People who don't have the cash reserves/appetite to buy in a recession will get fucked, and that's most people in the country

Oh well, should have raised your kids to be better people.

Retirees 'idiots' as they keep savings they need to live in volatile asset classes such as stocks.

Going to brag a little bit. I've been very suspicious of tech and the US stock market for a long time. When I finally got the job I have now and got to choose 401k contributions I went heavy with international stocks and specifically avoided anything involved in too much tech. My 401k has gone down in the last week but we're talking barely 3%. The paranoia sometimes works in my favor
