Pull yourself up by your bootstraps is an aphorism for a thing that is impossible. Like levitating yourself by yanking up on your asscheeks

Not for nothing, don't they always say to diversify your portfolio? I get they were trying to make a profit short selling stocks but still.

People talk about pulling oneself up by one’s own bootstraps but forget you can also hang yourself with those same straps. Hedge fund

managers have no one to blame but themselves.

Those one right probably find themselves agreeing with all the comments about hedge fund billionaires getting beat by the little guy. 1/
UnattendedDeviant
But they will still vote for the politicians that demand these types get bailouts and taxcuts. Things they've been convinced to call 2/

"socialism" when it's applied to help people like themselves. Republicans have done a great job convincing them billionaires deserve breaks.

A coworker made an argument that if we tax big business they will just go overseas so they should get a pass...wtf
UnattendedDeviant
They have been brainwashed to thing supply drives demand...and it's not demand drives supply. I debated with a guy who Twitter who believed
UnattendedDeviant
....the producer makes cars and that drives demand. I think he finally understood they ain't expanding production if they don't see demand.

1st rule of gambling: don’t bet with money you can’t afford to lose
ATerribleArtist
I had money to play with from gambling and now with this whole thing? Worst case, new car. Best case, new house ^^
ambiencenever
They can afford it, they just don't want to.
fbutt09
Nah, the first rule is you don’t say you have a gambling addiction
nonCanadianGoose
Gambling is a fine form of entertainment when it goes into addiction is when you lose money you can’t afford
CausticCake
Tbf, shorts don't have a maximum loss like normal stocks do
ButterfaceTaintClown
omg, why didn't anyone tell the hedge fund managers?
nonCanadianGoose
Yet here we are
DanteLidge
First rule of gambling is don't gamble, because if you've broken that rule, you're not gonna follow any others
nonCanadianGoose
Gambling is fine as entertainment, but as with any other entertainment, assume the money is lost

How do i acquire money to bet in the first place?
theshinobi23
First, you take a huge loan you have no intention of paying back. Then, you buy stuff in your SO's name. Then, file bankruptcy.
theshinobi23
Trust me...I know it gets results. The best results. Everyone knows it.
Ruhig
What if it's someone else's money? Is that ok?
SpaceSphere
Good news! (Assuming you are a hedge manager)
nonCanadianGoose
Depends on whose money it is and how much you like your kneecaps
