I have a co-worker and at times lately it has been mind numbing to talk to her. When we talk about the economy, she keeps pointing to how well her investments are doing like that is the be-all end-all determination of how well the economy is. Then I point to the unemployment numbers and it is like it is going completely over her head. How can you not see what is right in front of you!

People simply do not understand finance or economics. They are fed a lot of bullshit by the media, professors, and what not. In the end, they cannot see what is right there.

It is very sad. Unfortunately they will likely be dealing with the consequences of what they chose to ignore before long.

Yes it is simply how it is. We cannot keep people from being their own worst enemy. They will spend hours a day on Facebook yet not spend even a few hours a week learning about finance or money management.

I was just saying I need to start looking at some online coding courses. Been years since I did any and I have always wanted to get back into it. It never came natural to me so it was always hard and not worth my time in the past.
