I didnt have much to begin with only lost about 12k, I have nothing anyway. My mother lost roughly 100k in her retirement fund from all this crashing. My grandmother even more. How much have you lost in Trump’s Tantrum Tariffs game?

    not everyone has good financial education, and not everyone can afford to lose so much money when they are currently living off it.

      Yep. Poverty sucks. If you can’t afford a portfolio you won’t be affected, though.

      Vulnerable people giving away money without googling it first is a thing that happens, but that’s not exactly a conspiracy either.

        thats sometimes peoples life savings. not that this makes me specially sad, but isn’t a lot of retirement schemes in the US tied to the stock market?
