  1. What use is blame when you don't take accountability for the absurdities you are choosing to believe and the atrocities you, and others commit on yourself and other people as a consequence? When will you stop, shed your shoulds, and come to terms with what is? Why do people come to a channel that is teaching how the global financial system has been arranged since the Post-World War II, looking for advice trading on the stock market? Then complain - often violently and resentfully - when they don't get that advice? How absurd can that misguided sense of entitlement be? Instead, of admitting they are in the wrong place, and that they don't know what they really need, they keep on looking for a one stop shop or a panacea to solve a problem so complex that it impacts everyone on the planet. And what's worse, a solution unsuited for their needs? As the solution is far beyond just trading in the stockmarket or any market to solve. Markets are not taps that if you jusr turn them in the right way, assets will flow into your bucket. Markets are human institutions that reflect the nature of humans, for both good or ill. They are complex, often operating with other institutions in contradictory ways, and produce results that are contradictory and has negative effects. Markets are not playgrounds. They are more like Roman Ampitheatres, where blood letting is the means to stave off social disorder, whilst sacrificing those who can't afford to be in the audience but end up in the circus. Jeff is describing the machinery behind the process, which if you can't afford his courses, is a pretty strong indicator it's not a tool you can use. . Instead, you could be looking elsewhere. And listening to advice people like Warren Buffet gave for engaging in the stock market, which was, K. I. S. S., by buying index funds, and start early, because the rug pulls won't give you carpet burns. You could be developing alternative streams of income and assets, because the value of a 9-to-5 job is being eroded over time, and you have to have skills people want to pay for, and those with the money to buy them becoming more restricted as time goes on. You also have to be honest with yourself about your priorities, because they always come with problems. If you aren't happy to deal those problems, you have to change your priorities. You have to be prepared to adapt and keep on adapting. Don't play in the water unless you are prepare to learn to swim, and to find the right people to teach you. Stop expecting to be rescued when you don't.
