    9 in 10 people would say what the fuck is this dude thinking....

    Who is he kidding....Americans looking to retire aren't concerned about day to day markets??


    yes they are. Anyone close to retirement is closely watching their retirement funds ....thats their everyday money they will be living off of for the rest of their lives!


    Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent says Americans looking to retire aren’t concerned about day-to-day markets, dismisses concerns about a potential recession

    Bessent is a lunatic. Reminds me of the book I read about Enron. In a shareholder meeting the CFO said all is well and keep holding your stock (while it was crashing while he was talking). Some one in the crowd asked him:

    Are you serious? Put down the crackpipe and start telling us the truth.

    Bessent insists a huge tax cut to billionaires just has to happen, when he was asked about raising the Fed min wage above $7.25 he had no comment.

    Trading involves very little physical strength.

    Are those retirees trading?
    If they are, they must be rejoicing.

    Scott Bessent was hired to provide a veneer of expertise, having worked for Soros, while supporting policies he knows are political and not based on economics.

    Oh, absolutely, Scott. Retirees are living the dream, watching their savings evaporate, all while sipping lattes and pretending the recession is just a figment of their imagination. Who needs to worry about the market when "In MAGA We Trust" is their motto? Ignorance is bliss. Stay ignorant, folks!

    Ahh, so you’re betting against the market while rooting for tl Trump's tariffs? Seems like you’re trying to have it both ways, like cheering for a team while hoping they lose so you can cash in. Nice strategy.

    I always knew you were a fucking hypocrite!
