One simple question
« on: July 13, 2022, 09:14:50 AM »
Are you worse off or better than you were 4 years ago?

My answer is worse

Yours?

Have to go 4 as 2 puts you back in the middle of the china flu lockdown which I'd hope is the same for all

Glad you 2 are better off paying so much more for everything

Personally, I'm a lot better off than I was 4 years ago. I making more with the better job than I've ever had in my life.

But if you're asking if the country is better off, no. The country is going to hell. That's very obvious. To anybody.

If the god/king hadn't done such a dismal job with regards to the covid, the USofA would be in a better place that it is today.

BTW, the god/king built on what Obama had started.

All he asked was if I personally was better off. I answered I am in fact better, yet already the political pot stirring has started. Typical.  :)

Tell that to the other countries who also had covid hit them. We have 350M people and it's a far bigger country than ones in Europe. So that's pretty much a fallacy that "one guy" can stop covid. Remember, it first started In a very democratic ran city. Why isn't it their fault? Why isn't it any other Europeans leader fault for covid hitting them?

I have a better job and we escaped Portland just before they increased interest rates, so I am almost on fire. I'm down close to $15k in the stock market, so that sucks. I've lost over $25k in gains. That sucks. But I am not retiring anytime soon unless one of my stocks pops to $10, probably won't happen this year though.

As much as I dislike Trudeau, he did a much better job with regards to covid.

Yes have to wonder about the 401ks and investments of anyone who states they are better off now than 2018

That alone is worse for me but then again in feb 2018 I  had 2 stents and additional meds for a minor heart attack..so at least there isn't that :)

Canada only has 38M people dude. He went full on fascist totalitarian and shut down many people's businesses and livelyhoods. Not sure how that's a "good Job".
