When I played, my methodology, which nobody told me but it was through trial and error., was buy and hold. I invested as if it was going to be forever (Warren Buffet), but I was aware that people are generally emotional and to find opportunities the cool kids aren’t seeing while looking for pumping (George Soros).

This was “the” big thing in 1990/91 at least. All over the place, on t-shirts and things. It was in the midst of the AIDS situation. It’s actually thanks to activists wearing T-shirts with this on it going into cities and even small town America to spread sexual health awareness that ended up reducing the problem of wide-spread AIDS in the USA. It wasn’t a govt program that helped. It was person to person education. Took years but the positive effects shows up in the statistics.

The parallel news medias are probably the most amusing of all. Used to be just right and liberal news media. Now it’s right and liberal and now there’s a left media presence which was always hiding in the green party stuff. Various libertarian types are also coming out with their news
