    Several of the biggest market experts have been voicing their opinions on exactly how awful they think the next downturn would be, and how far equities may have to go, as recession draws closer and inflation continues well above the Fed's 2% objective. I'm trying to build a portfolio of at least $850k by the time I'm 60, therefore I need suggestions on what investments to make.

      Most people either do not understand the power of compound interest, or are just impatient. For the average Joe, however, I think it is just best to invest in the S&P 500, and just wait, which is reliable, albeit extremely long-- lots of years. Or just use a professional analyst and speed up wealth creation. Most people underestimate the power of the latter.

      On my end I've been in touch with a financial analyst ever since I started my business. Knowing today's culture The challenge is knowing when to purchase or sell when investing in trending stocks, which is pretty simple. On my portfolio, which has grown over $900k in a little over a year, my adviser chooses entry and exit orders.

Why is there never reporting on that? I'd love to see a complete report of everybody's salary from the top person to the lowest. But that information will never be let out because it doesn't serve the interest of the oligarchs.

      ​@@grey4509 The NY Post has an article about Evergreen Marine's bonuses dated Mar 20, 2023. If you check their website, you'll see that the company is based in Taiwan and was founded by Dr. Yung-Fa Chang in Taipei, Taiwan on September 1, 1968. While I can't definitively disprove the claim about the CEO taking a $4 billion bonus, I also couldn't find any other credible sources to support it. As for comparing Amazon’s earnings to MSC, both companies are publicly traded, so you can easily access their financial reports for a clearer picture.

      The power lies above with greedy capitalists, not below with other workers fighting to survive. Think solidarity, not "me me me." Corporate pigs love to pit the working class against each other. Don't fall victim.
