I feel the same way. Im 1 phase removed, but have been very lucky in dodging them too.

01 i was in high school, 08 i was in college with minimal expenses. I was paying $975 per quarter for room and board including 9 prepare meals a week and had enough school ships that my quarterly tuition was also under $1000, coupled with an engineering coop 1/2 the year, i came out financially ahead.

Covid i was a salaried essential worker who had to work 3 days a week but still got paid full salary. That made the lack of available child care bearable. I also had a house that i purchased with 3.25% mortgage.

This next one im feeling already. I moved for my wifes job this year, so that new mortgage rate sucks

Thats not what theyre saying. Theyre just saying "dont call it a tax, call it a fee" because that seems to be ok. Hence why the property example was a fee based on size and value. It's not flat.

Theyre not advocating flat tax, theyre advocating changing the name. "Its not a tax, its a fee." That fee can still be proportional

There are mathmatical definitions. Like our current correction happened when we were 10% below peak. Thats what i mean by calling them technical terms

Sure, but you see tesla going up on bad news, its not difficult to anticipate its going to come right back down. Im not telling people to throw money away, obviously you need to be educated. Last year i turned 7k into 35k. Took it all out except 700 and am already back to 6k.

Ive been doing this for about 14 years. I have experience and knowledge that someone starting out doesnt. That wasnt my point. My point is, it doesnt take much money to get started.

when we hit recovery or bull market

Those are technical terms. Thats when i recommend buying back in.
