Literally no good place to invest and the fiat currency makes stuffing your mattress unworthwhile too. Sigh...

I mean I agree with the stock market being crap right now, but I DO disagree with there being no good place to invest right now. You can still make a pretty decent to large amount of money in derivatives right now if you lock in your price now with options and use a little leverage if you're a little more sophisticated than the average investor.
Likewise, if nothing else real estate is always a good place to dump your money. Even WHEN the crash happens, that building is still gonna be there. Though I wouldn't get a mortgage for it at the moment. I'd only do cash only deals, or throw it into a non cabal syndication fund (In other worlds, a small-medium cap syndication fund).
There ARE still places to invest, it's just a lot more complicated now thanks to all the chaos going on.
I was just commenting, I retired early, built a house abroad, and lived off savings until returning to USA, now I'm getting SS and went back to work. My nest egg is small and I'm going to buy gold with ongoing savings. No one to leave money to, and I'm not going to let the medical field rape me.
Stock Market fundamentals have changed over the last 50 years. Consider Twitter, look at total revenues, their bloated payroll, and what the stock is worth. They have mostly an intellectual property that can walk out the door, just like many big techs that don't make a physical product.
