That’s what I would call a bubble. The same has been said for FAANG stocks because they are success stories, and I do think that TSLA and NVDA are large enough with enough assets that they aren’t going belly under overnight.

That said, there were stock advisers, people with degrees and decades of work in early 2001 saying “Buy Enron!” Same goes for dot com stocks, same goes for cypto bros. I’ve made some pocket change off those two companies “mooning” their share values so I am definitely not complaining, but don’t rely solely on those two to go “line go up” forever. When they did my decision was not to buy more, my decision was to very smartly sell off a small portion to “make my money back” per se, and now the rest is house money basically :)

This is why one of my “divestments” is non-cash valuable currency, items such as weapons / tool stockpiles, and training / knowledge. Seriously on that last one is so important if you have a day off learn how to use basic hand and power tools. Learn to cook something. Learn how basic gardening works. Take a CPR and Stop the bleed course, how to do basic electrical work, etc. You don’t have to be professional at them but learn how to do them.

Best case scenario, you can be cheaper and look sexy knowing how to cook clean and repair. Worst case scenario, those are going to be worth more than Benjamins in a true SHTF scenario.

I’m gonna put it this way: In an apartment complex I used to live in, AT&T service was terrible while Sprint (still a thing at the time) and Tmobile had okay service, and Verizon had great service.

One of my neighbors there was literally worked for AT&T as a telcom engineer or something, and was as such eligible to get free cell service from AT&T.

He paid the hundred bucks or whatever at the time for Verizon, instead of the literally free service he could get from his employer, because it was so terrible. Good riddance.
