These bonzos want the world economy to collapse so there will be massive layoffs, allowing them to offer AI bots to companies and governments to replace human workers.

    Crashes are good for people that have capital because it lets them buy things that people are forced to sell at a discounted price.

    Not because it lets them sell ai. The goal is to snatch up cheap assets to sell when the economy recovers then do it all over again.

      my personal plan is to gather as much capital as i can while this everything bubble goes wild (fuck it, look at total volume levels now vs…anytime last 30 years…nobody but degenerate gamblers and those that should know better are playing right now), then…go on a mass-building spree to drive down the price of housing.

      high density, high-quality, affordable housing built for sale not rent, sold exclusively to long-time local residents and/or first-time home buyers. my hope is this crashes individual localized housing markets, as the local rent parasites cant find renters and since they probably took loans out on their properties to throw into the casino…

      then i swoop in, buy their distressed property on the cheap, throw down even more high-density/quality, affordable housing for sale.

      repeat until everyone has a home

      Facts. You don’t even have to be particularly rich to do it. I had a few thousand I’d saved over a decade in March 2020, used it to buy oil stocks at a 90% discount, then sold it two years later when things rebounded. It wasn’t ‘fuck you’ money, but it allowed me to pay off my student loans.
