      We should go back in time and kill the clown who invented this BS. What's the logic behind it? This Dr / Cr nonsense is akin to saying some numbers are always negative and some are always positive. Sheer lunacy!

      @@classicalwit Yes ! I totally agree ! This stuff is so dumb. If you have any understanding of numbers and words, this concept is offensive. Accountants suck. The only way I can make any sense of it is that they didn't know what the words meant. They just plucked some words that mean opposite things and applied them. Unfortunately for everyone else these words already had a meaning and now we're stuffed.

    While trying to build passive income and prepare for retirement, It’s important to choose stocks that are expected to hold up in inflationary environments. To combat the negative effect of inflation, it’s a good idea to diversify your portfolio across different asset classes, such as stocks, bonds, and real estate, since this can help protect your portfolio against inflation. I have seen people making up to $800k in a month during high-inflation

    • @MarcusFred-wn3iv
      @MarcusFred-wn3iv 10 місяців тому

      One strategy is to invest in assets that perform well during inflation. Another strategy is to focus on companies that have the ability to pass on price increases to their customers. It's also important to maintain a diversified portfolio. It may be a good idea to speak with a broker who can help you develop a customized investment strategy based on your individual goals and risk tolerance
