the US stockmarket is more rigged than las vegas...

something like this cant happen in the US, why? because there arent much persons that trade US stock, the most trading is done by computers, and if those go into panic mode, the market gets halted and the trades vanish. 


was the crash that happened 8 years ago just a dream?

that wasnt a stock crash like that in china.  the crash of 07/08 was different, the bubble exploded so rapidly because the government was to stupid and some banks to greedy. they wanted to make cash like they did wit the bear stearns collaps, but well it didnt worked so well.

the US market isnt more safe, the risks are just different.    but if you are holding good blue chips you shouldnt have to worry to much(and its not to hard to get some informations about blue chips)

financially (well at least investment wise, i budget my daily expenses well) and pretty uninformed and dumb to what i'm doing.  i have a lot of money in my 401k and another big chunck in betterment and a really big chuck doing nothing in my bank.  what i like about betterment is it does everything for me.  what i hate about betterment is i really don't know if i should trust it.

i've done really well finacially so far but i really feel like i've forest gump'ed it.  i've been on the very lucky end of a lot of things really.
