@Viss I once accidentally paired to my neighbors speaker system instead of my anc headphones. Raised it to full volume on my music to be able to hear anything. This was at around 4am

[h2onolan@infosec.exchange]

@Viss whoooo!

@Viss Really breaks up once it hits the coast though, huh?

Then again, I am guessing the coast is your issue with this.

[viss@mastodon.social]

@Viss The S&P 500 has a 16.8% gain for the year though. That's pretty hard to beat, even with a back step.

[viss@mastodon.social]

@John go on...

[phillip@social.lol]

@Viss San Diego sunsets are something else dude. They’re hard to beat

@Viss @kaliagainstallodds@mastodon.social it's time for the annual renewed interest in the search term "exercise".

[viss@mastodon.social]

@th @kaliagainstallodds oh, yeah good point - suddenly everyones buying running shoes

[john@socks.masto.host]

@Viss I was just thinking through the financial theory books I've read. The one most applicable to this was Benoit Mandelbrot on The Misbehavior of Markets: A Fractal View of Financial Turbulence.

It's pretty neat stuff, to learn how the foundations of chaos theory came out of financial markets (iirc a 19th century data series on cotton prices).

My takeaway was that the market moves by big days, some up some down, but consistently over time there are more up than down. 1/2

@Viss it's the underlying math that gives us the long-term average of 7% growth per year.

And 17% is better than 7%.

So call it a good year.

2/2
