$210 trillion. Nearly a quarter of a quadrillion dollars. We need another bake sale.

I noticed about ten years ago that in the common vernacular, “billion has become the new million”. And I noticed last year that “trillion” was quickly becoming the new million. And now we’re already talking quadrillion.

It’s exponential. Our fall is like the fall of a parachutist without a chute. The first few thousand feet are nice and you hardly notice the ground is coming up. The the last few thousand feet are a bit faster. The last few hundred feet go by in a blink.

We’re reaching that point. It will blindside even many of us doom and gloomers who, deep inside, hope we are wrong. But we’re not.

He’s correct I believe.
But I’m clueless on how to play the end game because timing is everything.
We’ve already cruised way past the time where I thought we’d be in big trouble.

In order to have a bake sale you need to be licensed and they tax the profits anyway.
