I keep seeing posts about an upcoming lost decade, but the market keeps rising
People claim that P/E ratios are at levels last seen in March 2000 or 2008. I get it, but the market keeps trudging along. Doesn’t the market always revert to the mean? Historically it’s done 9-10% per year, and the last decade has kinda looked like the 90s. What do …

I noticed something recently. When I see people posting about making hundreds of percentage point gains on the normal YOLO-subs, it really doesn't impress me or raise feelings of envy at all, but it probably would have when I was young. If you get sudden gains, it was either based …
Podcasts and other educational content- what are peoples top picks?
