Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

Links to news stories from...
...credible sources, with...
...their original headlines, that...
...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

Wow. This guy figured out how to beat the system.........quick! Everybody take financial advice from this guy! We all listen to this one guys stock advice, invest all our life savings, and there's never ever any risk because this guy knows what he's doing!

I mean, it's not like there's any precident set up of people being conned into financial advice, investing heavily and then intentionally crashed by it's designers in order to scam an entire populace. What could POSSIBLY go wrong??? It IS the 20s after all!

The person you're responding to just said what they did as a relevant example, not that everyone will get the same results or should do the same thing.
