  • Right, and whoever figured out that system was likely not working for tips, nor are many of the beneficiaries of that system today. So I guess I should clarify, I mean the system itself is a loophole that allows people who figure it out to avoid doing anything productive as long as their investment is large enough for them to live off others, whose work is part of a collective effort to ensure that the fantasy of a company’s eternal growth continues unabated.

    The problem is you can never tell when that rabid pursuit will lead a company to ruin, and cause that investment to collapse overnight.

    So that means people spread their investment over multiple concerns attempting to pull off the fantasy of eternal growth so that the inevitable failure only impacts them a little bit at a time, assuming they aren’t quick enough to move their investment to a different inevitable catastrophe in time to avoid the current catastrophe.

    You know, a house of cards.
