Thankful and Being Grateful for 2020

I may very well never even be noticed.  You may very well call me "Mr. Nobody".  I am that unsung hero who no one gives a crap about.  An individual may very well save the world, but who'd care?  The President of the United States or some Hollywood celebrity would mostly likely get all the credit for it anyways.  What's the point if no one gives a damn?  I mean it's a thankless job.  What do you get out of something for doing good work?  Why not just be born into a wealthy family?  Why must we work so hard for something/someone who'd treat us like crap?  I guess most mothers are able to relate.  You give birth to a baby, you take care of the baby, the baby yells/screams/beats the shit out of you/etc.  What do you have to show for taking care of a child?  At the heart of it, it's the practice of unconditional love.  Being a higher power means that you care regardless of any reward or personal benefit.  By just having a good work ethic, having a backbone, and a strong character will make others notice you're around.  No, it's not about fame and fortune all of the time.  Again, no mother really gives birth to a child to get famous.  I can only imagine how unappreciative, salty, and unforgiving life can be at times.  So what really matters?  Why do any thing if no one is going to give a damn?

Well, if you don't give a damn you're not going to give a damn.  This is the true meaning of a sociopath, just going about your day and doing whatever to get your biweekly paycheck.  After a while, you just feel like a robot.  The key element(s) that separates us from being man or machine is the ability to feel thankful, to feel grateful, to be able to appreciate what we have.  If you had a choice would you be a famous actor or a Christ like figure in some random church somewhere no one would ever really care much about?  If no one is going to see you on film or who cares?  Are we all just a bunch of attention seeking whores?  What value to we offer to not only ourselves but to others?  Where is the love?  Where is the compassion?  I mean would anyone care if you saved 10 random ass villages in Africa?  What's the point of doing all this hard work if no one will give you the time of day for recognizing your contributions to the world?  Why are only evil ass mother truckers recognized throughout history?  Who wants to be the good guy when no one will care about you after you're gone?

Am I doing this all for free stuff!?  Jesus Christ, I need help.  I need help.  I would like to know why we do anything other than "for money" or "to get things".  From birth we are hard wired by society to "do things" just so we can "get things".  This logic is fundamentally highly flawed.  Why can't we think in terms of good? That we do acts of kindness out of love or compassion, because we care?  We do things, because we care; not because we want something in return.  We care for children, the sick, or the elderly because we give a damn.  When love is at the core of why we do anything, all things are possible.  Money, material gain, fame, and fortune is just a byproduct coming from that love and compassion that we have internally that extends outwardly.  When we love what we do, wealth will follow; but when we try to chase wealth love will not follow very long.  We have our moments of grabbing and taking things, but a true foundation of wealth first starts from within; everything else comes secondary.  When you are lost in a sea of haters, just remember to love yourself.  Being able to love yourself is one of the hardest things to do.  You can't really love anyone/anything else for long if you don't love yourself first.  Yes, we do a lot of things to get our minds off of ourselves, but there comes a time it's just going to be you by yourself.  Love will unlock and melt away all obstacles and answer all the questions you may have.  No, it's never easy.  Sometimes, you may very well just find it much easier to not give a fuck.  After everything is all said and done, no one is ever going to really give a fuck other than yourself.  So what if there is a higher being watching over us and giving out and taking away brownie points?  In that case, just be yourself.  The ball is your in your court.           

Have a great day everyone!  Nothing makes me more happy in the moment than grabbing free stuff.  The other day they were giving out "free"S tar Bucks and McDonald's to healthcare works.  If it is one thing I care about, it's getting free stuff.  No, no one has to know about this ordeal; but I feel the rush of it coursing through my veins like a drug.  If it's free, it's for me! 


   

   

What to Buy Now?

Let's face it: When we have the monies, we are overly obsessed about buying stuff.  For me, I don't want actual tangible assets.  I don't like clutter.  I'm a minimalist at heart.  The less crap in the room, the less decisions I need to make on a daily basis.  Therefore, I'm able to just go ahead and complete whatever it is I need to do.  I cannot stress enough how much of a people person that I'm not.  In any event, I will buy stocks, ETFs, mutual funds, etc.  Because the consumer is not spending right now with the pandemic lockdown, it's the perfect time to buy in on the market.  All we see are suggestions to buy whatever has been beaten down to a bloody pulp, such as energy (oil), financials (banks), cruise lines, and airplane lines. The above image is just a little glimpse of my own research. 

Look, everyone has crazy ideas about being the next Wolf of Wall Street, but how many individuals actually ever make it out alive?  Buy this and buy that.  Who the fuck really knows anymore?  One day the market is down, the next day the market is up, and the next day only God knows.  Some of the experts address everyone to just leave your money where you left it, some suggest to get out, some are just buying like crazy, and some people just continue to buy bonds, some people just continue to buy in increments like they don't give a damn, and some people just don't get involved nor have any interest whatsoever.  After everything is all said and done, who is right?  No one ever really knows.  It's all just a big gamble.  Welcome to the casino.  Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose.

Sorry no, you don't know the absolute truth about the future nor do I.  Things constantly change.  No one knows for sure.  Everyday is different.  There's no one ultimate business.  There's no one best brand name.  What exists is an ocean of companies in constant competition with each other.  How about multiple sources of income?  Nope, at some point everyone gets hammered by a recession.  What solutions remain out there?  Yes, buying bonds is a great one but also boring.  None the less, bonds have been yielding great returns this year.  Just continue to buy savings bonds.  It's the safest bet out there. 

So what will I actually be doing?  I'm buying in increments.  I don't have an exact super scientific game plan nor can such a thing ever be deployed, because everything is constantly changing so fast.  No one here can time the market.  Without a crystal ball, I need to rely heavily on ETFs.  I can't afford to buy single, individual stocks.  Buying stocks is just too risky.  I have had bad experiences buying cheap, penny stocks.  I don't trust it at all.  In fact, I remain buying ETFs.  Well, I guess that's just what I must do: Continue to buy ETFs.  As I've stated before, bonds are just to boring for me.  I would rather risk it all than to be boring. 

So there's all this crazy shit going around splattering anal juices everywhere.  What do we do?  Should we buy into the stock market?  You just have to go in there, kick some ass, and do it.
I have said enough.  You can plan and talk all you want, but ultimately what it comes down to is "Just do it" - Nike.  Should you hesitate and not do anything then don't expect to be rich, don't expect any benefits, don't expect anything.  If you do plan on doing something, who knows?  Maybe, there will be another recession after just having a recession.  Place your bets, place your bets. 

 

Caring for 2020

In the end, who cares?  Seriously, what the hell even matters anymore?  Well, this is a photo taken at my hospital of the number of patients being discharged.  For privacy matters, I will not release any other information.  In any event, most people do not even know I even work at a hospital.  Good, because I don't like politics, I don't like being used as a show pony, and above all else I really want people to just go home after all is said and done.  No, I do not want to get into drama or politics.  People are messy, and I don't want to get connected by someone on Facebook.  If you are serious about talking to me, you'll call.  If you have no other means of connecting with me, you're screwed.  It means that I don't care that much.  I will not give a damn if you don't talk to me face-to-face.  I have had too many incidences of random asshole syndrome.  I need a way to protect myself and my time from random acts of asshole behavior. 

In any event, I don't want to waste anymore of my own time and resources having to deal with this pandemic.  I already work 40 hour a week.  I do work during my 40 hours.  I do not want to see or have to communicate with anyone if I'm not at work.  I could care less if anyone tries to get to me.  Sorry, I have to be a safe keeper of my time.  Sorry, I don't get paid for having to deal with extra amounts of shit.  No, it's not fun for me to be doing this.  Have I have been contacted?  Yes, but sorry no dice.  I don't work for free.

I will just jump straight to the point: All that matters in this world is being of service to others, compassion, and love.  I cannot afford anymore acts of stupidity, neediness, insecurities, revengeful payback forms of unresolved karma, and/or other forms of bullshit.  I would like to remain a positive force of nature.  I cannot stress enough how much I don't want to waste my time dealing with assholes.  All that matters is that people get well from this pandemic. 

Thank you for dropping by.  I have no intentions of being famous or having views.  I have had only 1 reader in these past months.  Business is sad, but I'm doing it my way.  Yes, I guess I'm doing it my way and it's been the best learning experience since forever.  Does my way work?  Sorry but no.  Again, it's like I'm writing for the sake of writing and venting but no one ever gets the chance to respond or even post an  asshole comment.  Well, who cares?  It's not like I care enough to grow my audience either.  It's great that I'm writing but who cares?  Only your audience can make you rich.  If you don't care about your audience, your business won't grow either.  I'm the perfect example of that.  I wish I was the full package.  I wish I cared enough.  I wish I had a bigger audience, but it's not like I really care all that much to be blasting my stuff across social media everywhere.  I don't want the backlash, I don't want to be receiving any negative asshole comments/criticism, I don't want to be in the spotlight.  I just don't care.  I don't make any money from this.  I don't care.  Sorry, I don't care enough.  Like the sun and nature outside, it's going to fucking do whatever it's going to fucking do: Rain or shine.  God bless.  I love you all.  Take care.  Peace out.

Days that Actually Matter

No, I'm not a time traveler.  No, nothing here is predictable.  No, no one here can short the market and bounce like they're Wolf of Wall Street or Neo from The Matrix.  But can you, yes.

In any event, all I'm saying is that the market will eventually go back up one day.  If I wasn't so lazy, I would have moved my money around.  According to Warren Buffet, you should just stick it out and not do anything.  Should you decide to do anything, the only thing to do would be to buy, buy, and buy.  Buy when others are fearful.  Buy when there is blood on the street.  In any event, do I care much?  This kind of inflated money doesn't mean much.  No, no, and no.  The entire stock market could collapse; and I would still be a homeless.  In essence, none of this matters.  I AM A HOMELESS; I DON'T OWN MY OWN PLACE.  WHO THE HELL, OTHER THAN MYSELF, WOULD CARE IF I'M A HOMELESS OR NOT.  Yes, the market will continue to fluctuate up and down but will I do anything?  Will any of this matter to me.  Will I get what I want out of this whole mess?  Again, WHO THE HELL CARES @_@  I WANT MY OWN HOME TO LIVE IN AND BE ABLE TO AFFORD TO GET BY WITHOUT ANY MAJOR ASSHOLE PROBLEMS.

My goal is not to confuse anyone.  My goal is to own my own home.  I don't really give a shit if people are killing each other on the street or arguing about the smallest of littlest of things.  I NEED MY OWN HOME.  I DON'T LIKE OTHER PEOPLE YELLING.  I DON'T LIKE OTHERS BEING ASSHOLES.  MY HOME WILL BE DEDICATED TO THE WELL BEING OF PEACEFUL BEINGS, NOT HARBOR/RELEASING HATRED AND SALTINESS/TOXICITY IN A NEGATIVE ENVIRONMENT.  Having such a living space is very important to me.  I don't care if anyone understands the importance of being peaceful, but it's important to me.

Thank you for coming over.  I hope my readers out there are doing well.  I know there's only been 1 person reading my stuff, but whatever.  No, I'm not even close to having the money to own a home.  This whole process may take 10 years but as long as I'm making progress everyday I'm happy that I have an obtainable goal to reach in my lifetime.  On the way, I'm learning new skills and progressing as a human being.  No, I specifically do not want to cater to asshole behavior or negativity.  I'd rather be in the light than the darkness.  I respect both aspects of life, but in the end I'd rather choose to live in the light and positivity.   

CARNAGE MARCH MADNESS 2020

Well, here it is: Doom and gloom on paper. No, don't run away.  Today is just another day.  IT'S JUST ANOTHER DAY.  Do not panic, do not fear, this is life.  This is what I've been talking about.  This is what will happen to EVERYONE.  How you get back up is what is important.  We have worked until failure.  We have sweat day and night to win a prize.  Now, it's time the reaper comes out and play.  I AM HERE.  I AM THE REAPER.  I HARVEST.  I AM SATURN.  IT IS I FOOLS.  I AM HERE TO HARVEST.   

I feel the energy of Saturn.  Saturn is here.  HE is HERE.  Do not fear.  Do not be alarmed.  This is just time.  It is that time of year again.  Now is the right time.  This is the time I must reap what I sew.  This is time doing its thing.  God has a place and time for everyone.  This just happens to be mine.  This is naturally occurring thing in the world.  Please don't be upset.  I am who I am, and I do what I do.  Everyone plays a role in the universe just as I play out mine.  No, you won't like me.  That in itself is a role.  To be able to appreciate something, you must lose and/or not have something that is otherwise missing.  In the midst of the Gods, you are all children.  It is just that time of year again.  I must do what I must.  Do not cry.  Do not fear.  This is what I must do.  This is my love to you.  You will feel my love.  . . . 

    

GAME OVER 2020

I have nothing else to say really.  As I've stated many times over, I was meant to be a forever homeless.  Well, this is nothing short than what was actually to come.  What else could be next?  Work tomorrow?  Whatever happens, tomorrow is just another day for us to go back to work whether you like it or not.  Everyone gets hurt.  Everyone dies.  What's the big deal?  Why bother even being overwhelmingly controlling and/or stressed out about work or school?  Does money matter if we're all dead?  Why so serious @_@  

Thank THE LORD you are still alive and move on.  It's another cosmic learning lesson.  If you aren't feeling the pain, you aren't growing.  Peace out.  

   

How to Invest in China - Alibaba

Yes, the market is at an all time anal devastation.  So, the question is how do you invest in China while the market is temporarily down?  Long story short, for Vanguard's VWO is your safest bet.  Well, it only has 5.90% into Alibaba, which is the most percentage I've seen in a well trusted ETF thus far.  I believe Fidelity has an ETF that extends that to 20% of Alibaba holdings.  In any event, you have to be pouring a ton of money into this thing for it to be profitable.  No, 10 shares of VWO is not going to change your life.  You would need to put down at least $3000 minimum to be serious.  Sorry, but putting down $1000 isn't going to scratch a dent.  Hey, reality hits hard like a truck, and so should you.  Sadly, this isn't even the tip of the iceberg.  With $3000, you can buy about 70 shares of VWO and thus capturing the potential of Alibaba for the years to come.  Is this even worth a damn?  Probably not, and you should probably look for an investment elsewhere.  No, this isn't funny.  I don't want to be that guy cheering about a few hundreds of dollars of gains after several years of investing.  Sorry, that low kind of standards will not be changing anyone's life around.  I WANT ENOUGH MONEY TO BUY A HOUSE.  I WANT ENOUGH MONEY TO BE ABLE TO RETIRE.  I WANT ENOUGH MONEY TO BUY, FIX UP, AND RESELL REAL ESTATE.  I WANT ENOUGH MONEY TO SEND A CHILD OFF TO COLLEGE.  Seriously, no one has time for chump change.  If you want to get serious, the minimum investment for any ETF is $3000.  I shit you not.  If you don't have the $3000 to buy an ETF for investing, go back to living in your mom's basement.

Peace out
