Those retired folks who put some of their IRA in stock of the largest corporation appreciate your empathy, chump.

So empathy for idiots is supposed to be a good thing?

For years, prior to the dotcom bust, I was begging the older people in my life to pay attention to what they were “investing in”.

They refused to believe they couldn't double or triple their “funds”, by tossing money at companies who didn't have any business plans.

It happened again before the Housing bubble burst.

Greedy ignorant “investors” expecting magical unearned profits on the mere basis of buying and selling to each other, back and forth, the same “investment”.

My “give a damn” has been busted for several decades....
